Kcd was developed while beholden to different financial interests than 2 therefore they get judged separately.
The guy who funded the first was trying to invest in Czech cultural media iirc, he's some right wing billionaire.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!

And that makes it not woke? What about the other ******* in the game
You mean the protagonist?
No, I'm talking about that gay monk, and The protagonist, at least in the first game, he was just a *****. Here comes the second game, now through ****** magic, he is now gay and is also still a *****, pretty much in character for a ***. Now, if these *** devs ever make KCD3, what will be astounding if they make him the protagonist negro as well.
if they make a third game the protagonist will be Henry's and Hans' adopted black daughter

Intent is a major factor in whether what is in a game is woke. Use your brain.

The only players left playing that game are the ******* delusional leftist extreme ******* who are scrambling to find a Mare mod replacement to see their naked avatars **** other avatars. All while bashing on anyone with a brainstem loitering in Limsa with nothing better to do since they capped everything to 100 and never touched grass or pussy in their entire lives.

It's ******* woke.

One thing I think it's necessary to add regarding Baldur's Gate 3.
Every single heterosexual relationship in the game is presented as miserable or outright bad and THE ONE relationship during the game that gets the spotlight treatment is lesbian and presented as perfect and inhumanly happy.

During the game, your male party members will try their hardest to have sex with you regardless of your orientation and the game treats straight males as outright bad.

Seriously **** this game.

I wanted to try it out because of your post. I even downloaded it.
But it looks like such Unreal slop that I couldn't even bring myself to start a new game.

I will settle for no ******* and no noggers, as well as no lesbians. Women should finish every appearance with "I am so happy I've become a mother to White children". Adult compromises and all.

I covered the death cult ideology extensively and it continues being severe in Dawntrail with the same existentialist narrative and the same dark moral conclusions. There is also a globalist agenda in the game since Stormblood (arguably Heavensward) where every nation must join the UN expy and hold hands and sing kumbaya and exchange gifts and people. Any country that refuses to do so and remain sovereign automatically becomes your next target to infiltrate and become a pawn for nice people to install into power, usually meaning you overthrow whoever was previously leading that nation and working to advance its interests. Almost all of the countries you overthrow in this game go from monarchies to democratic republics.

The game has almost nothing in the way of typical Western esque woke stuff that you usually see in topics of conversation. The old localization lead Koji Fox left to go work on FF16 and his seat was filled by a dangerhair who posts on BlueSky about how trump supporters should die, but the only thing she has actually done over the past several years is make the pixie beast tribe non binary, and then hiring her internet friend - a man - to voice the tomboy furry heroine princess.

Incorrect. There is no homosexual in the Eden story about Ryne and Gaia. It's the usual tumblrinas trying to "claim" something that isn't there. The rainbow crystal at the end was tacky but that was to do with the main plot of the Eden raids which was summoning and killing different primals aspected to each element to rejuvenate the dead null aspected land. Yoshi-P has made some LGBT supportive statements in the past but if he was going to do something like that ingame he would have done it. The severe issue is the death cult messaging from ShB onwards but for some reason contrarian sites like these prefer to fixate typical race/sex "wokism" rather than the satanic, misanthropic, amoral messaging in modern media. People would rather go crazy over a line about Gobber in HTTYD or Else in Frozen possibly being gay rather than the enormous in your face anti-family endings that hang over the entire story. It's lunacy. Stop being blind and get your priorities straight.

No. Why do you ask questions to which you already know the answer to?

(The "you" part in that line might come across as being aggressive towards you. I do not mean it that way. I hope you have a good time here dear new poster :) . It's just 2026 and people should have long since realized the truth of what is happening or chosen to remain willfully ignorant of it. Though it is possible that there are new people on the scene who haven't been around long to grasp the totality of what was going on).

McCarthy 70 years ago was correct that the death cult were capturing the American entertainment industry. Even before that, there were German refugee professors infiltrating American academia. It's a Wonderful Life, the Charlie Brown Christmas special, Bonanza, etc, should not have been noted as having been unusual for their Christianic narratives. The fact that they were should tell you all you need to know how far back things were going off the rails. People mistake the 2010s era of gamergate and co as being when the woke suddenly captured the entertainment industry. No. The had been capturing it long, long before it. The 2010s is just when they had so thoroughly cemented control that they were now throwing their victory parade and performing humiliation rituals. The late stages of the capture was happening even before in ye old "based game dev days" that grognards like the proclaim, but the reality is that most of the so-called "based devs" were not Christians and did not have a moral spine to stand up to this, and allowed their companies to become increasingly captured. Mike Morhaime was one of the Blizzard OGs, and yet he threw open the gates.

The new-media-entertainment complex has been thoroughly converged. Book publishing. Comics. Music. Hollywood. These industries have been bad for decades, but for the death cultists in control they will keep pushing their message because it is religious to them. Don't expect anything to change with videogames. Not to mention almost everything has been conglomerated. It's all just a handful of entertainment megacorporations now. And that is the fatal flaw of corpoart. The buercracy exists to obfuscates and dilute power. You have the president of Disney saying that they need to stop producing overtly woke movies to stop antagonizing audiences, but the infiltration was from the bottom up. It's on a mass scale and you cannot identify and root out everyone.

The death cultists are willing and eager to work for little pay with no hope of supporting a family in order to produce and push high production value art that pushes their message. Family minded people with their hearts on God are less likely to risk their limited time and assets producing entertainment (one of the riskiest industries), and conservatives mainly care about ROI and retiring to their ranch. The conditions and will required to produce a similar amount of high production value art that pushes the Truth does not exist. Also, starting your own company requires intense vigilance to prevent infiltration via the HR department. It only takes one to get into the HR department and start hiring their friends, gatekeeping out wrongthinkers, and firing wrongthinkers who poke their head up. Vigilance which most conservative business owners have not shown a willingness to do.

Christians and Conservatives can produce cheap indie games or indie novels, but they are not high production value and thus not widely appealing. Even this forum has fallen victim to that mentality.

Christ told us that things would get worse and worse towards the end before His return.

Even if you reject God and don't want to believe that there is a judgement coming and that things will not get better in this fallen world through mortal hands alone, it just should have been obvious from how entertainment has been rotted for decades that there is not going to be a reversal. A decade ago, that The Quartering guy kept saying "go woke go broke!" over and over every day in reaction to every news piece, and yet a decade later here we are. Unless you are a tiny poorly managed business like RoosterTeeth, then no. Going woke for most of these conglomerated megacorporations did not in fact mean going broke. Doomcock for a decade kept saying "my sources inside Disney tell me that Bob Iger is furious! Kathleen Kennedy will be fired any day now!" and then lo and behold she got a decade+ long career before thinking of retirement in her 70s. Redditors and kiwi farmers have been talking about boycotting new Pokemon games they don't like and lo and behold they sell 30+ million copies. Just learn to recognize the patterns.

The ultimate takeaway is not to stake your fulfillment in life on the entertainment industry.

@UnfinishedSentenc These are both correct. You will always have degenerate mutants who would love nothing more than to tear down cultural pillars. This means you have to be vigilant, and as more people become aware of these bad actors, the more likely things will improve. So no, it will never go away, but that doesn't mean things have to be as bad as they were in 2020.

Every single one of these ARE straight white male games that got infiltrated, bought, threatened, whatever. Try building something new and it will either fail or get infiltrated again. I also tried for a while to play indie games in an attempt to get away from the wokeness, and even leaving the quality aside, I found so much woke garbage that I had to admit it there was hardly any difference at all. They do also control the media after all. Even if you had the perfect game, how are you going to spread the word? Through RPGHQ?

We need to understand that we are being stolen from. If you try to improve the situation by earning more money, the thief will just steal even more from you. You need to get rid of thief.

Yes, by praying for them to leave the life of sin and repent. Meanwhile, you have the duty to fight them to the death if they try to harm you or yours.

It's not about economics, it's about depopulation and transhumanism. Money is just the means to that end. Your argument doesn't make any sense either since LGBT people are only a fraction of the entire population.

Is there any hope for Crimson Desert to avoid most or all woke things ? I've played very little of Pearl Abyss Black Desert Online and don't know if they cater to such thing, but I'm very interested in Crimson and it looks promising not having character creation (so no A/B at least).
