Why is "woke" being overused to criticize games that people don't like?

I miss shitty parody movies so much bros.

>>712558129 (OP)
Buzzwords are appealing to right wingers because of their low IQs. Did you know 54% of American adults read below a sixth grade level?

Wokefags hate that there is a word to describe their agenda pushing so they have to cry and push a narrative that it doesn’t mean what people think despite saying for years that it doesn’t even exist.

>>712558834
that has an easy explanation and it contains the letter N

>>712558129 (OP)
>>712558338
Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer genuinely fascinate me with just how inhumanly shit their movies are. I genuinely can't think of any other filmmaker capable of such repulsively bad dogshit done with such sincerity.

>>712558129 (OP)
>Why is woke being overused
I too wonder that OP, hopefully sometime soon devs will stop

because powerful black girls are being overused in video games

>>712558129 (OP)
Because much like how "cuck" is now overused in /a/ even when there is no ntr involved, once a term becomes used too much it's meaning becomes distorted and overexaggerated until it becomes a buzzword.

>>712558834
did you know you're poor?

>>712558129 (OP)
Because only subhuman retards use that term, and they have a very limited vocabulary

>>712558129 (OP)
Asmangold, a balding PC fanboy warrior, has uniquely farmed his fanbase with this bait. It's like giving a monkey a banana. Even more bizzarely, South Korean gender culture warriors pass the grift torch from Asia to Europe and America. You know how incel and chud lost all meaning? So too will woke lose all meaning.

/r/GCJ loves to flame tensions as do YouTubers and Twitter abortion failures for engagement rage revenue purposes. It's some ouroboros inane monkey shitflinging.

>>712558129 (OP)
Because most of these games are in fact, woke

>>712559735
>mindraped by a WoW autist
you lost

Woke is a smokescreen for people not liking fags/niggers/dykes/kikes. Most people on this site are at least up front about it. People who deride woke stuff while denying this are simply dishonest.

>>712559842
Bald and you lost your counterpoint. Rage engagement metrics and a snake eating its own tail, never ending culture and gender war grift from South Korea reaching the States and Europe for lonely pathetic men who need a father figure. Raised by single moms.

People like you, incidentally.

>>712559638
Did you know that even though my country is considered to be expensive by European standards, it's still much cheaper than the US

>>712560059
I don't watch asmongold and I've never played a korean game
the fact that watching twitch streamers is such a common thing for you that you project it onto others tells me you're a fag

>overused
stop putting in gays and niggers in your games and people will stop calling it wokeslop simple as

>>712559545
That's because some that is a cuck is also a pussy. Not all pussys are cucks though.

>>712560159
that's crazy, I can afford whatever I want even though it's all more expensive than the crap in your country? you really are poor

>>712560214
Literally only someone who watches Asmongold would know he's a WOW PC fanboy Autist. He just streams range grifting garbage these days, that I don't watch btw.

>>712558129 (OP)
It's called an overcorrection, an equal but opposite reaction to the threat. It's a natural part of society attempting to fix itself.

I come here to get AWAY from woke!

>>712560313
the only thing I ever knew about asmongold is that he plays WoW and anyone who plays any MMO deserves to be slaughtered in the street
you know I was racist and said "fag" all the time before twitch even existed, right?

because it's a succinct and descriptive way to describe all of the performative dishonesty devs have been engaging in for the past decades and a half

Retarded leftists will unironically lose multiple elections in a row just by ignoring reality and hoping no one notices this time for sure.

>>712558129 (OP)
There are lots of woke games these days and people do not like them. What's hard to understand?

>>712558129 (OP)
because most people are fucking idiots that are incapable of articulating what, exactly, they don't like about the modern flavor of political messaging
they just know that they don't like it, ergo it's "woke"

>>712558129 (OP)
Because conservatards are incapable of forming proper critique of bad media so they just default to their Beijing-issued buzzwords.

>>712560825
people know exactly what they don't like, they just can't say what it is specifically (niggers, fags, trannies, jews rubbing their hands together)

why are people so obsessed with bringing up asmongold, asmongold this asmongold that, why the FUCK does everyone talk about this guy so much, WHAT DOES HE EVEN DO

>>712558129 (OP)
man western media is so dead people just watch old movies

>>712561010
he is my daddy

everyone who shits on asmongold likes hasan, it's pretty simple

Nigger your questions are too easy

i don't know who any of these people are. sometimes I have to wonder if people are joking with this constant eceleb worship, i don't get it.

>>712558129 (OP)
Plain culture war blowing out of proportion some small act of virtue signaling.

It's goes like this:
>game have black MC, or a non sexy female character, or any fictional content that trigger the culture warrior
>meme as woke, woke bad!
>imply it will only be good against until his racist/incel/political views are obeyed to the letter

>>712560984
and those are bad because...?
come on now, use your big boy words

>>712561010
Biggest gaming streamer on Twitch right now, my dood. Also has a habit of dabbling into politics, throwing around retarded takes and then trying to squirm out of responsibility when getting called out with "I'm just a smol bean gamer, just joking".

>>712559638
>That 20% poorest has to pay 15$ for a 12 pack of eggs
>While in most european nations a 24 pack of eggs costs 5€ tops
It's like saying that switzerland people are extremely rich and have such low taxes and at the same time you go there an a free forkspoon they give in precooked meals in the supermarket costs 15€, or the switch 2 was like 700€ instead of the 470€ it costs in the rest of over 20% VAT european nations.

>>712561250
>fag says he needs racism to be explained
interested tactic

>>712561260
So they all just sit in front of a camera and talk, they don't actually do anything? That's it???? The fuck has this world come to lol

Pretty much this, moral outrage sells since the invention of the printing press.

here in the midwest they're like $6.25/dozen

Zoomers have no father figures due to coming from single mom homes. The Eceleb shit is a lie you said, this place is constantly getting eceleb literal who threads from Twitter, TikTok, YouTube. You cannot be posting on /v/ without walking into one of these Zoomer eceleb culture warrior grifters and /r/GCJ invasion waves. Comically brain damaged culture warriors.

>>712558129 (OP)
Because right wingers are retarded and can't express themselves.

>>712561438
yeah it's like 8 bucks for a carton of eggs at kroger
it's funny how ignorant europeans are when they try to be condescending

he does more than that, he watches a youtube video about trump and occasionally says

Retards gonna retard. It's the same as leftoids screeching that everything they don't like is racist or sexist.

>>712561548
it's a retarded thing to even bring up when eggs are only expensive because of the avian flu outbreak, not some nebulous "duh economy"

I hope Spaceballs 2 will be good.

NTA, but pandering by the lowest common denominator isn't inherently good, you instant gratification brainfried retard.

>>712561636
You guys might know this, but this is word-for-word what the average zoomer media consumption is this day and age. I wanted to fucking unalive myself in a multiplayer game when zoomer started speaking. Fucking hell. I just typed that instead of kill myself. Fuck man. You hang around with zoomer long enough and the brainrot illiteracy and permanent ADHD 1 second attention span starts infesting you like a virus.

they might actually be lower now, I don't eat eggs in the first place so I don't pay much attention to how much they cost

>>712558129 (OP)
What does the "R" stand for?

>>712561842
so then they should appeal to the negative number of black girls that play video games and the infinitesimal fraction of white males who pretend to enjoy those characters?
you understand these are businesses, right, they should be trying to make money and when they don't people have a right to point at them and comment
if mcdonalds changed their menu to be kale salads and green tea, you could
>what are you complaining about, are you some kind of fat retard who eats mcdonalds all the time? why do you care????
and I'd explain that I don't really "care" per se, but I am pointing out that they'll go out of business for making that decision and after they do close up shop, you'll pretend it never happened and the next time something similar happens you'll act like there's no precedent for it

If you are incapable of enjoying a game just out of the principle of the game having a black female protagonist, regardless of the design and writing quality, then you legit have a mental illness.

I don't know. Why are incel, nazi, chud, coomer, etc are overused to criticize games that people don't like?

>>712562541
Why would I buy cheap shit when local is much better and still cheaper than American?

>>712562276
can you name a video game that stars a black girl that is just a normal game that happens to have a black girl lead?
I could make a black girl character in Dragon's Dogma 2 or whatever I wanted, but that wouldn't reflect the black experience in a way that the black girl games attempt to (often poorly because because there's not a lot of black leads in game design), which ultimately alienate the crowd who gets annoyed whenever a character says "yass, slay"
There are things that are not for me, and thus I don't engage with them. And that's fine. I don't watch Hallmark Christmas movies about 38 year old white women falling in love, either.
The issue is, as I said, the number of black girl gamers is a negative number, not in the sense that there's less than zero, but in the sense that trying to appeal to such a fraction of the wider audience will only net you a loss in profit

This is like when an ESL tries to big dog about speaking more than just one language, like us ignorant Americans, even though nobody in the entire world, including the resident of that ESL country would ever need to speak their native language because English is so ubiquitous
And no, it's not because of British imperialism, it's because every country consumes marvelslop by the trough-load just like us fatties in the USA do

You're right. The slang "woken" is retarded. These games don't wake you up. They make make you sleep instead. We should call them with other terms like Jewish games. Or Blackrock-pandering games.

if they don't actually name it "Spaceballs 2: The Search For More Money" I'm gonna burn down hollywood

Anon, you are just fucked up.
It's not like you play character that are like you in any way, you don't even need to have personal experience or whatever to make characters.

Then don't bother the others who like those games and just "vote with your wallet".

If profit is all that should matter to you, you might as well be defending lootbox crap and low effort skinnerbox gatcha.

just like these "others" don't bother the people they don't like, right?
and they bully them into submission because they're nazis and chuds

>>712558338
I saw this at the cinema when I was 14, it was fucking terrible but I found it funny at the time.

>>712565546
Somebody calling you mean names on Twitter isn't bullying into submission. At worst, a game just doesn't behind popular. But the gestapo isn't going to break into your house and brick your PC because you bought Stellar Blade

>>712565729
>But the gestapo isn't going to break into your house and brick your PC because you bought Stellar Blade
but they sure would like to
what you're seeing is a fucking reaction of years and years of these "people" making fun and putting down gamers for what they like but somehow now that they're losing, it's not a good thing

>>712565557
There's a lot of really terrible movies that I like. Apparently Adam Sandler's movies are universally horrible and an afront to cinema. I still like Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison. I think Click is genuinely heartfelt. Even if I think Little Nicky is unwatchable I still like that he can just round up his friends and make a movie for the hell of it

And you can call them far blue haired retards on the same platform. You have the power

Listen OP, no one wants to play as a stronk womyn of color who is usually out of shape and not heterosexual.
Devs know this, investors know this, studios know this. Yet they keep making games where players are supposed to play as these characters.
So maybe, start wondering why they are overusing this concept which no one likes instead of those that criticise it.

>>712558129 (OP)
Because the sentiment that "woke" encapsulates (Major focus on "racially aware" progressivism, rejection of "heteronormative patriarchal" elements, hypocritical desexualization against "le male gaze") is very diffuse amongst AAA game developers and chuds feel that these views negatively affect the quality of a game's mechanics (Through a lack of focus, since these progressive games tend to focus way more on the narrative) or writing (Because this way of thought is usually associated with predictable tropes and characters that come across as "squeaky clean" moralists or whiny and or unlikeable pastiches)

>>712559298
there it is

>>712558129 (OP)
"Woke" means not-me. Not being me is bad, because me is me, and that makes me better than not-me. If you disagree, you're wrong because you're not me.

>>712558129 (OP)
Because the people that generally obsess over it the most are people that spend too much time on a toxic internet that ragebaits them all the time and has overwhelmed their information intake to the point that they take any source of information as truth without further verification just because it aligns with their internal worldview, they're snared in a mental trap of "everyone who tries to tell me otherwise has to be one of the bad guys trying to convince me to stop so they can continue doing evil without opposition". This kinda stops when people get too exhausted to browse the internet as much anymore and finally have enough mental room to think about things in a more grounded way, at that moment they generally realize that woke games are generally shit but they're generally shit for far more important reasons, like the development team being hired by a HR team that prioritized diversity hires because HR got orders from the executives to pursue that because it improves the company's image, and that a company's executives are almost always the reason why a game ends up being shit.

>>712566205
the difference is that half of these mentally ill freaks are the ones making the games now and the other half is trying to control the narrative working as "journalists"

Shadowheart canonically has pubes that you can have her show off at any time by simply swapping to "camp gear" and stripping her of her camp clothes, at will. You don't ask her for permission, she never comments on it... you just do it, and there is never a notion of her "consenting" or exercising any agency.

Low IQ people repeat things verbatim because they can't formulate original thoughts. The anti-woke media narrative is specifically targeted at the poorly educated.

ESL people sometimes do the same thing when they cannot formulate in the white man's language. On here it's Indians calling everyone "Tranny" because they lack the language skills to spot that it's not a universal insult that fits in every context.

When you have an entire industry of businesses whose job it is to literally contract with devs and inject wokeness into video games it's not surprising to see games described as woke.

>>712558129 (OP)
Incompetent devs use id politics to defend and promote their games and /v/ is too retarded to see beyond the woke shield and think devs makes shitty games because of their politics rather than the sheer retardation of the higher ups and general lack of talent.

because, they are delusional and mentally ill, disconnected from reality.
To get results you need to be intune with reality.
So they think they can just lie hard and long enough to affect reality.
its not working out well, because reality reasserts itself always.

if you think a movie critics opinion on comedy is worth anything you should really think about the people you listen to.
critics have always shit on any genre films as they dislike having to watch them and do their job. Comedies get it basically the worst.

>>712568531
In the good old days children used to be taught to read in school and as they progressed in their education they would read more difficult material so a sixth-grade reading level simply means the average reading ability of a child in the sixth grade. Now you guys learn that men can get pregnant and get in depth instruction on gay sex instead or reading so it doesn't make much sense anymore.

>>712567479
If a group's entire shtick is to use subtle manipulation and to browbeat dissenters then accurately cataloguing every way they're deceitful would be a fools errand and should be left to YouTube autists.

For the more well adjusted it's much easier to just label people like that woke and throw them out of the community.

>>712567479
What is your opinion on the "cracking egg" movement?

>>712558129 (OP)
Yes and no, its mostly being used correctly against slop like concord and alike but it is sometimes used when its not really applicable like paper mario the thousand year door, or is overinflated when the game has more serious flaws like in the case of ass creed shadows.

but you didnt want a serious answer did you

>>712567479
everquest posted!

>>712569197
It wasn't used incorrectly. There actually was a few small changes made to the Paper Mario script to please leftoids.

>>712558129 (OP)
It's a result of many people having too small a vocabulary to adequately express their thoughts and feelings.

>>712569436

lol, lmao

>>712569769

Get real. It's used as a stand in for all thoughts of feelings people have about shit.

>>712569769
you need to understand leftists like hearing the sound of their own voices more than explaining things in a concise manor

>>712570068
Yes, sometimes you can feel that the person you're looking at is a piece of shit.

>>712558129 (OP)
It's a very easy word to use in place of actual coherent thoughts.
Most people ultimately don't want anything interesting or insightful to be said, they want to confirm their current understanding. People end up falling into camps that like
>Based
>Redpilled
>Rightwing
>Conservative
>Trad
>American
Things, and hating
>Cringe
>Bluepilled
>Liberal
>Democrat
>Woke
>Anti-American
Things.

It's pretty basic cult stuff though, and most of the people who peddle it inevitably come from one of the various hotbeds of cults in America. You alter someone's language and speech until the only people they can comfortably talk to are other people already indoctrinated.
Applies to most social things today (you can thank Scientology for getting huge among celebrities and making billions of dollars, and also the entirety of Korea and Japan), but with the woke and anti-woke stuff it's painfully prevalent. You especially see it with people who insist on their own normalcy.

Well it's not splitting hairs because you're using a catch all term with certain connotations even in places where it doesn't make sense. Case in point Deathloop. Deathloop has black characters on the box. Because it starred a black MC there was constant accusations that Deathloop was a woke game. Deathloop was directed by Dinga Bakaba. Dinga Bakaba is black. He made a character based on his personal life experience, he didn't pirate a pre-existing property or race swap a pre-existing character. By every metric he did it right but nevertheless the fact that it was a game that starred a black dude the game was "woke" by default.

>>712570663
deathloop wasn't woke because the main character was black
it was woke because of the constant politics it pushed in its dialog, its other characters were the major problems, not the MC.

you never actually talked to anyone about what they disliked about the game and just assumed what they thought after hearing they disliked it, didn't you?

>>712570652
Why does the wokeism discourse need nuance? Can you give a single good reason why there's need for any nuance when it comes to it?

>>712558338
I don't honestly. The first 3 Scary Movies were good and Superhero Movie was ok, but shit like Disaster Movie and Meet the Spartans sucked so bad. I will say I do feel a small sense of nostalgia for that time period at least.

>>712568267

Not at all. Woke describes something very specific, as well as the usage of the word slop instead of garbage, boring, bad game etc

>>712558129 (OP)
Are we like, not allowed to call the elephant in the room now just because the word has been used multiple times validly?
Does it not qualify anymore because it's been used too many times? There has to be a limit for the usage of a word?

>>712570831
Because topics being discussed without nuance mean that the discussion in question isn't actually discussion. It's affirmation and validation of existing beliefs.
It's being spoon-fed something ultimately as non-controversial and non-confrontational as possible.

It's like when Star Wars Episode 7 came out and everyone liked it because it was a remake of the first Star Wars movie.

lolretard.
Most people who go through school for decades have just been sorted into groups by teacher during elementary and then, depending on your HS, self-sorted into a higher or lower level class.
Generally around fourth and fifth grade a literacy level is determined for a student so that they don't fail assignments.
For example, I distinctly recall my 2010 sixth grade English class' group reading assignments breaking down sort of like this;
>Highest Level
A local author's genrefiction work, chosen because it was not an established brand or franchise and thus didn't have existing interest or discourse for children.
>Middle Level
Hunger Games, chosen because it was explicitly written at a lower level for a YA audience, and while it was popular, it wasn't as ubiquitous as...
>Lowest Level
Percy Jackson. Borderline children's novel with an established foothold at Scholastic bookfairs, an upcoming (or was it already out?) film, and many might have already read it or absorbed its ideas through osmosis.

And if a student does particularly well that year, that information will be passed onto the next teacher in the elementary system and they'll be bumped up an arbitrary level. In high school this changes to being more focused on the students themselves, often readings will be chosen by the student outside of obligatory Shakespeare sessions, and the student then decides their own literacy level.

I'm personally not interested in discussion, but I've seen how shit goes down with the people that actually want to have a honest discussion on the topic.

When they try to interact with anyone and discuss issues with clarity and nuance. They get labelled as nazis, chuds, grifters and whatnot. It doesn't even matter if you try interacting with the rank and file redditor or turbofaggots like Niel Druckman.

There are people that want to bring nuance into the discussion, but those people are never treated nicely or even tolerated. The people ridiculing others for being woke aren't usually doing anything wrong from what I've observed, most of the time they have good reason to be fed up with the absolute horseshit they have thrown at them.

If you think of woke as essentially anything the left likes or pushes then it becomes a lot easier to understand what people mean by it. That's also why some attribute can be woke and also not woke depending on its implementation. For example there was a fat gacha character not too long ago that became very popular and people didn't call it woke, but there was this diablo 4 clip of some fat chick crying and saying that she's finally in some game and people considered it woke. Both were about fat characters, but they were recieved very differently.

You absolutely can, but based on your statements you are, again, using simple ideas to illustrate a vague enemy (trannies) that is easy to attack and is ultimate uncontroversial for your mind.
That's fine, but you're not some bastion of discussion nor do you want any. You're not Plato or Diogenes, you're a soccer mom sprawled out on the couch watching the news all day because Osama Bin Laden might bomb her suburb.
>>712572347
Eh, you don't have to be interested in discussion. It's pretty overrated and most proponents of it here moreso want circlejerks where they gush about a game and don't actually say anything (and then get mad when they're called faggots).
Similarly- you're not talking to people who want discussion either. Like I said, this happens on most of the internet. People paint a vague idea of an enemy and then they can pack everything and everyone they dislike into a box labelled 'tranny', 'nazi', 'commie', 'pinko', etc etc.

Really, seeking out discussion on a board like /v/ is completely asinine. Most people here are transparently some form of third worlder who has never read a book in their life outside of school and they just come here to get mad or mock an easy target- because that's easy and makes them feel good. It's pretty easy to understand base desires and I do it all the time too. But don't mistake any of that as intelligent discourse, it's more like playing a multiplayer shooter with text instead of guns.

>>712572969
>simple ideas
Because it's fucking simple.
Here's an example: The Dragon Age setting is one where magic spells and magic objects canonically exist and allow one to physically change their appearance, even permanently.
So it is therefore stupid and counter-immersive to have a cosmetic option for FtM tranny zippertits scars in the character creator.
Further, Dragon Age is a setting wherein nonhuman races and whatever other bullshit exists that refer to themselves and other members of their species or other species with odd plural pronouns or titles instead of names or various other eccentric fantasy shit, so it stupid and counter-immersive to have a character sit and explain their out-of-place real, modern life usage of they/them in a completely flat, bland cutscene as spoken as if it were a series of tweets rather than "lore".
That shit only gets put into a game because someone on the dev team resembles the remark, which is gay (in the lame sense) self-insert bullshit that objectively hurts the storytelling because it makes the universe of the game less cohesive.
Now tell me exactly why those two specific things shouldn't have just been edited out the game for canonicity's sake, if nothing else. It's the same as if some retard on the dev team broke up with his fiance during development and changed the name of a minor female villain in the game to his ex's name and altered the working script to have specific dialogue that makes no fucking sense about how that female villain keyed "asshole" onto the protagonist's car, even though it's a fantasy setting with no cars and the protagonist never met this female villain before.

It's like coming into someone's living room to take a gigantic diarrhea dump and then cry about "muh free speech" when you get your sorry ass thrown out on the street

Your side lost the argument for good the moment you went all in on "orcs are literally meant to be a stand in for niggers" when the current understanding of orcs was shaped by (LotR) a fucking professor that probably could have counted every black person he'd seen in his life on one hand when lying on his deathbed. Meanwhile the average leftcuck nerd can't stop dickriding H.P. Lovecraft who wrote enough about "Niggers" to fill a small book.

It's pretty fucking obvious for anyone with an above average intelligence to see that you don't want discussion at all, just the total destruction of every cultural institution you don't like because you're a vile sack of shit.

The anecdote is based on older national assesments of average Lexile scores, which only really measures vocabulary skills, not reading comprehension. 99% of the texts that Americans encounter in their daily lives is written at or below a "5th grade level"

Because it absolves the person saying it of having to make a real and actual argument of why a game is bad without having to play it. Best example would be concords gameplay being literally destiny but worse with a $40 price tag, and instead of having a discussion about what the fuck went wrong or why the game was in development hell for so long or even why it costed so much to make, we instead got nothing but retards who don't play video games desperately trying to pin the entire downfall of the game on being "woke" because the designs were ugly. It's basically a sign that you shouldn't even waste you're time talking to them in any serious fashion.

>>712573335
Ironically, to show how these things don't require discussion, you provide discussion.
I'm not saying this as a gotcha, that's a genuine bit of discussion you provided with real points in it. Why is this type of representation being used in this setting? Why does this type of incongruity exist and does this incongruity expose a lack of true belief in the ideas it is trying to push?
Why does the usage of pronouns reflect our reality when the reality of this world already invalidates that usage? Why is this entire world not cohesive with the attempts at representation trying to be inserted.

That is discussion, but boiling that all down to just "Woke" would be what I'm talking about. If you instead went
>Here's an example: The new Dragon Age is woke
that would be reflective of the common discourse invoking these words while also avoiding any discussion.

Of course, this also isn't exactly true dialogue, it's not a convergence of ideas between two likeminded people on opposing sides, but this is, in fact, proper 'discussion'.

that game LITERALLY burned money and flopped because it was woke

Nah it does.
Generally the actual "sixth grade reading level" in my example would be the middle level reading material. It's that simple.
Even ignoring that though, people underestimate what sixth grade reading level really means. I'd say most people here have the exact same level of literacy, including you, and I wouldn't say I'm that much better. Almost everyone here writes in short sentences utilizing simple language filled with slang and what I'll call "reference" language (common writing tropes of the internet that get recycled over and over and over again) and easy insults.

You're being disingenuous again.
I never played dragon age 4, I played the first 3, but not that one
Those two things are literally the only things I know about the game other than a familiarity with the returning characters from past games that I happen to have seen are in it
And I know about those things specifically because every "anti-woke" slop youtuber pointed them out specifically (and threads here did too) and called it stupid woke garbage or whatever without elaborating because you don't always need to
If you actually know anything about Dragon Age, you immediately understand why it's stupid, the very first game had a shapeshifter mage as a main character and the protagonist could become one as well, it was either in the first or second (possibly both and also the third DA) that had a magic mirror that allowed you to completely change your physical appearance, there were gameplay limitations to that ability but within the lore there was not
If you weren't aware of this, then you shouldn't even be fucking arguing against someone criticizing the 2020s-era Earth trans rhetoric being shoved into the game
You don't always deserve an explanation, a drunk driver who slams into a pole and then tries to resist arrest doesn't deserve an explanation for why the cops slammed him to concrete before handcuffing him

Thanks for proving my point you fucking self unaware idiot. It didn't fail because it was "woke" it failed because it development was an all around shit show on a management level. "Toxic positivity" equating to "woke" and not "management is refusing to listen to us because this is another example of out of touch leadership" is such a retarded reductionist view that actively erases the actual cause for shitshows like concord and hyenas, and leads to dumbasses genuinely believing that the only way not have a disaster on this scale I'd not being "woke" rather than not having fucking idiots in charge of projects.

How am I supposed to infer a deep history and existing explanation for the anger through a person pointing at something and shouting a word?
I'm not a psychic, nor did I care for Dragon Age prior to this very discussion.
The reason extrapolation resulting in discussion is ultimately avoided is because most of these people are reactionaries. Going towards the realm of discussion results in making yourself and your thoughts more vulnerable and that is something many of these people want to avoid. The fear to be challenged, to compromise, and potentially to be wrong. The dread of unravelling reasons why you used the reactionary words you chose and what that might say about you.
The people saying woke are ultimately not your friend because of that. They don't want to seek the removal of trannies from everything, the removal of fags and lesbos, they seek to cash in on the value of that word. If they truly didn't like those things and wanted them gone from society, they would not merely hide behind a singular word.

I had already stated that about this board though. This isn't some final revelation about my character, one of my earliest posts just said essentially the exact same thing about /v/, and even a few posts ago I made mention of how easy it'd be to just write a one sentence post and get all the attention I could possibly want.
I suppose I will add that your understanding of discussion is not actual discussion. This post I'm responding to doesn't even have a real thesis or idea beyond calling me a tranny, a form of basement dweller, a faggot, telling me to kill myself, and then saying I should be raped. Essentially the entirety of your post is just one long series of insults.

"Woke" actually refers to the person who starts to see the patterns, not the thing. Think about it for a moment.

The world has always had "woke things". If the world has always had them then how can the things be called woke? To wake up implies being in sleep first. And why don't people see "woke things" until they reach a certain age? The only thing waking up are the people who begin to see these patterns.

Woke is extremely correlated to a game being shit, because woke is a mind virus. I have seen authors who wrote very deep exploration of human nature get the woke "virus" and his next novel contains a novel about how this father was very happy to sterilize himself, and how everyone should be happy. To be like that father. Who sterilize himself.

A 17 millions words novels exploring the limit of human tropes? When the author get the woke virus, you get a chapter painfully explaining "wE aRe Fighting GODS literally right now, but did you know what is more important than fighting god for the future of all races of all creation? YOU ARE A TROON AND YOU SHOULD BE HAPPY ABOUT IT!"

Superman fighting against climate change. Always, always, you respect an author, a character, a world, and always, always, ______always_______ woke comes, and it becomes a farce.

>>712578289
no, that was what it meant before the woke crowd seized on it. shut the fuck up.

Superman in the silver age could probably slow down the planet using his muscles. Superman nowadays has access to other earths and supertech. "There is no planet B": actually, for superman, there is, you absolute buffoon. Superman protesting against climate change is a thorough rape of the character, a deep penis inserted into it, born of an advanced ignorance of the character, mixed with a deep contempt of him.

And it's not, by far, the worse of what happens when the woke virus take hold inside the mind of even a good author. It is, by all nature, a mind virus. To be rooted out, because if you don't, you get even good authors doing absolutely retarded things.

I recently read a webnovel that literally paused an extremely tense chapter about "fighting the embodiment of Mercy in the country, a Goddess in all but name" to explain some people are bad because they voted for Donald Trump.

No, you retard. You have a hilariously infantile definition of morality. You are the one who claims that I'm partaking in an "internet holy war" because you don't understand morality beyond surface level definitions of good vs evil.
That's not morality, you ignorant pseud.
Your objective is not to discover truth, but to twist words and control outcomes (just like how you're doing right now by completely misunderstanding morality and feeding your ego in the sense that anyone who replies to you seriously is taking this too seriously, which is what you're asking for in the first place).
What you are doing is epistemic violence, corrupting dialogue to obscure instead of reveal.
You simulate reason in the form of a performance.
The reason why it's morally right to call you slurs instead of partaking in a discussion with you is because the only thing someone is doing is dignifying your disingeneousness.
Your faux civility is not a virtue, it's a method used as a fraudulent impostor that you use so you can attempt to hold root in the discussion.
It is morally right to mock you for to engage with your conceited scenarios which you will forever twist to your advantage is to lower oneself into the disgusting mind of someone who doesn't care about truth, but outcomes.

I expect you to say something like "but look how long you replied though" when I'm actually not engaging in your previous argument but explaining, at detail, why it's morally right to call you a retard.

But here, I preface retorts with nigger and barely capitalize or proofread.

Whether the game is woke or not, when leftists make something they can't help but drop clues, so if the game is bad it's just blamed on their politics and social circle. But genuine woke influence is actually common because I fucking challenge anyone left leaning to make art that imitates life instead of art you wish life would imitate. They think everything they make has the ability to profoundly change society so it's always "progressive" no matter how distracting it is from the purpose of the work.

>>712558129 (OP)
Once upon a time, the US and Canada were global powerhouses when it came to game development. Studios like BioWare, Blizzard in its prime, Irrational Games, and Naughty Dog were producing some of the most innovative, emotionally resonant, and technically groundbreaking titles on the planet. Much of that talent is still around today, scattered across studios, freelancing, or stuck in mid-level roles, but something changed. Not because the talent dried up, but because the industry chose a different path.
That shift was not driven by creative inspiration or the needs of the audience. It was motivated mostly by greed and a warped sense of cultural posturing. Instead of appealing to a broad, diverse audience grounded in common sense and shared cultural touchstones, many major studios started catering almost exclusively to a narrow coastal elite. Mainly upper-middle-class Californians with social science degrees, more concerned with ideological signaling than with compelling gameplay or immersive storytelling.
It is not that these ideological elements cannot be part of good games. They absolutely can, and sometimes they even enhance the experience. The real problem is the lack of balance. In a healthy ecosystem, for every overtly progressive narrative-driven experience like The Last of Us Part II, you would also have several games that speak to more centrist cultural sensibilities. Maybe something grounded in classic storytelling. And at least one game that leans more into traditional or right-leaning themes like patriotism, individualism, or moral clarity.
And no, this is not about games being literally political, like red versus blue nonsense. It is about cultural sensibilities. Things like tone, values, character archetypes, and emotional framing. Right now, the landscape is heavily skewed. A small group of tastemakers dictates what is acceptable, and it is not just boring, it is creatively stifling.

>>712580705
what's actually bad about "grifter" is its a currently existing english word with a purpose. If you throw it around at everyone you disagree with it'll become the boy who cried wolf and we can no longer point out people who only seek attention for money and have no other agenda.

"groomer" can be misused like this too, but it's being used on so many actual weirdos who are going after the kids. Whereas the people I suspect of being actual grifters is much smaller because it requires minor celebrity status.

>>712581720
the difference is danger hairs are a vast minority while bud light effectively associated their entire brand with being a cock sucking faggot and because drinking is a very social activity, being caught drinking bud light is something not even the average normie wanted anymore, let alone the target demographic of college dudebros. these companies are killing themselves more than anything.

That's not true at all. It's just identity politics. It doesn't even take long to break it down if you really want to get spergy about it. It's "waking up" to an invisible *power structure* and *injustice* normal people can't see because they are "asleep". It's just "wake up sheeple" for a more modern demographic of retards that started with race and moved on to sex gender and sexuality. So anything that challenges the *straight white cis male power structure* with new moral rules they made up recently is woke. If you don't want to think about that just look for pronouns and body types 1&2 or A&B, one of their flags they have for everything, or flawless female characters nobody can relate to. The only way people swing and miss is when they just call a gay or black character woke when it's just a gay or black character.

Grifter detection really is that simple. If they sidestep the JQ or give some vague “not all” response, they’re playing the game for a paycheck. The left thinks throwing buzzwords like “fascist” or “Nazi” turns off a debate like flipping a switch, but all it does is reveal how surface-level their understanding is. Same slogans, same routine, every time. They can’t imagine someone genuinely holding views outside their echo chamber without assuming it’s all a grift.

You are overthinking things. It means what it needs to.
The right will beat the left over the head with it for as long as it is effective.
Currently keeping men out of women's sports is the cudgel of to choice.

That one has some staying power.
Everyone knows that it is unfair but the left can't say it. If they do it shows they are lying when they say transwomen are women. If that happens it may hit 60% as reality sets in.

Ironically enough, it was the woketards who made an entire generation be racially and politically conscious because they wouldn't stop pushing their retarded agenda in young males' bread and circus.

One thing the left tried to do was inflate the perception of how many blacks were in America.
It working was a double edged sword.
It indeed gave blacks more political influence.
The downside for them White people began to feel they were minorities and started voting as such.

Once again the left was the architect of their own demise.

Let's think about this one for a second.
People criticize when they have something they want to complain about; that is, when there's something they don't like. The criticism in this case is 'woke'.
What you should be asking instead is what constitutes wokeness in a game, or state your reasoning for believing the meaning has been diluted as you've implied, instead of making a thread asking a pointless question that, in a way, answers itself. In any case, this thread's almost at the bump limit, so you've achieved something, I guess.
God I hate this place.

>>712558129 (OP)
That's just blatantly dishonest

>>712594323
OP would just give you the old definition of woke as black awareness movement if he gave you any answer at all. Woke people just pretend wokeness is ethereal and confined in a far away place that doesn't matter, just like CRT. They don't give a name for the changes they make because they don't want you talking about it.

It's not overused. Most modern games are woke. They deliberately insert characters no one is interested in just for "representation" and alter writing and every aspect of the presentation in such a way that it will do less psychic damage to minorities (and they still get triggered of course). Nearly all modern games are safety padded.

>I have hope that my art will improve as I continue to create it.
It 100% will improve simply because when starting a comic most people have never drawn as much before, and as often as is of required of making a comic. It's one of the fastest ways to improve,. What really matters though in a comic that even people who can draw fuck up is pacing, so you should plan that out carefully otherwise you'll be over 5000 pages in, and one fucking day will have passed in your story (you'll have basically started none of the story). Just be prepared your first comic will probably suck due to pacing, getting that down is an art in itself. So don't spend the rest of your life waiting to start it, because the first one usually sucks.

yea okay

Woke as term, at least in the modern lexicon, was parroted by socially progressive faggoty types as basic short-hand for being for socially 'aware' or 'awoken' to injustices towards various groups, be them legitimate or, in quite a few cases, perceived. They also basically stole it from the blacks.
'Social Justice Warrior' was a similar sort of term they made up to describe themselves.

They used the terms themselves, unironically, and are mad that their opposition uses them as labels of derision towards them personally and their ideals. Is it overused? Probably. However, it does work as a basic descriptor of the current left-wing activist and their beliefs. Just not with the intended connotation.
>Tl;dr.
Woke-fags mad their fag term is used to describe them as fags. It will fuck off eventually to the next forced bullshit word.
