There is another group who does something like this:

Their admin says things like this:
"After more inspections it's pretty clear that this is a troll list, made by butthurt lefties" (Post #24)

I fail to see why there is any competition between these groups. Maybe that is of interest to you @rusty_shackleford

I'm not surprised that a very thorough list would ruffle a lot of feathers, the pot is boiling now but the temperature was already being turned up for years prior.

Whoever created this list is either mad genius on the edge of the law, or just... mad, sheesh

Its a list of videogames with gay people in them, I don't know where the edge of the law lies exactly but I don't think its quite there.

I think many of the older games tagged as "informational" should be "recommended." The mere presence of LGBT characters or themes in a game does not make it woke, especially when viewed in light of the prevailing culture of the time. Morrowind is a perfect example. Vivec trooning out can hardly be seen as something designed to promote normalization and acceptance of those lifestyles. Instead, the intent was to drive home the point that this otherworldly being was truly a freak and an aberration. And that is the case among many games of that era. Homosexual content and characters were often used as proxies for depravity, or as comic relief. That is very different from the agenda and presentation in current games.

As was mentioned, there was a time I would agree in such, but the reality is, they have been pushing this crap for a very long time. If they had kept it to past subtle occurrence, I think most would have just shrugged about it, but they opened up this can and I know for me personally, I will no longer walk softly around it. Informational serves best as it at least lets people know there will be elements experienced and they can research and decide for themselves.

As it was said, the fatigue is very real and frankly, I don't want to see the crap at all anymore. It has made playing past games where I let it pass become intolerable to play anymore (which to be honest, people should have never tolerated any of it in the first place).

No ****, no ****** worship, no femdom **** fantasy, etc... let people know and they can decide for themselves.

If you go by this standard, the old Streets of Rage games have to make The List because they include homosexuals, even though they are caricatured enemies inserted for comic relief that you beat the **** out of. And OG Final Fantasy 7 also makes The List because it has cross-dressing, even though it is done in a humorous way that mocks the practice. There is a big difference between holding something out for ridicule, and presenting it in a "sympathetic" way intended to normalize it. The fatigue regarding the latter practice is very real, but I think if we can no longer enjoy a laugh at the expense of ****** and *******, that is granting them a victory.

Those both sound woke to me.

humor is the first step towards normalization

Yep, some people don't want to see it at all though. That is the point. Nothing wrong with putting "informational" so people can decide. Maybe a parent doesn't want their kid seeing anything about it in their entertainment? Maybe people are so fatigued that any reminder of it is just something they would like to avoid, regardless if it is put in such a perspective.

In the 80's and 90's, the gay comic relief was fine, you laughed at the joke and moved on... these days, some just don't want see them at all regardless. Also keep in mind, their inclusion as the butt of the joke was their idea in a lot of content, they are narcissists' and love the attention.

See, I don't care enough about the deviants to even want to bother with making fun of them, that is how much I don't care about them, they aren't even worth the the effort to berate.

This got me thinking about how some implied casual lesbianism in JRPG titles, also known as "yuri jokes" seen in anime as well like women grabbing each others' booba in a playful manner, may have been intended as "male-gaze fanservice" rather than an attempt to normalize homo stuff.

However, I do understand the chronic fatigue that the average person must likely does have at this point, so if lesbian stuff was intended as either fanservice or normalization doesn't matter much.

The US versions were ******-free because they knew Americans didn't want to see them.

It's way past the edge in UK
They may have to release a murderer to make space for extraditing the creator of this list.

The problem is, same thing. That's one of the big reasons we have ******** now for example.

Sea Of Stars is marked as "contains no woke content" but there was some kickstarter reward thing where players could pay to get a custom message/statue included in the game.

This has already been brought to my attention.

Developers can refuse, rewrite, or refund backer input. They decided $150 was what they were going to charge to add LGBT propaganda to their game.

You make a good point.

Additionally, it seems I was incorrect about the nature of the crypt. Anyone can enter provided they complete certain steps. The backer code is simply a quick way to find a particular monument.

With those things in mind, I have changed the review from recommended to not recommended.

Thanks for your input!

Noice, more publicity.

[SoLong]

I don't have X or I'd tell the **** that if any of those games have anything worth salvaging than we're perfectly willing to put in the work and depozz them.

Please review Kingdom Hearts…
My kids want to play it and I want to know if it is safe or not. Is it woke? All three games if possible!

[maidenhaver]

None of those gayms are even close to good.

[A Chinese opium den]

If seeing infinity gays, *******, and ugly women, in games filled with propaganda telling you about how white people are evil and need to die doesn't melt your brain you're NGMI.

Ignore them. Tell your kids not to play video games. If they do, take their dinner away.

[Salikino]

I have no problems with non-woke games which is why I’m here.
Can anyone else let me know if Kingdom Hearts is woke or not?

Throw out their game systems and give them fresh bibles. Why do you even own a computer?

[Salikino]

I own Bibles and a computer.
I just want an answer before I approve it please…

It will make your kids autistic

[Salikino]

They are teenagers.

[A Chinese opium den]

They are teenagers.

Way too old to be playing kingdom hearts without becoming supremely autistic.

[Salikino]

Either way, I would like to know whether Kingdom Hearts is woke or not… if nothing else just to have another game on your great list.

[UltraFan123]

Kingdom Hearts is the game series with the most infamously hyper convoluted plot that has ever existed.

Not even the "veteran experts" of the series can explain the plot in 20 words or less.

Basic ***** "anti-wokies" who think they're fighting the good fight because they get big mad at body type A and jerk it to big tiddied waifus.
