You're going to see this everywhere. Every space will suddenly become "apolitical" now that the election is "over" because politics right now means opposing fraud, lockdowns, and global communism.
Look at Georgia, where the GOP is talking about trading this election for voter ID "next time". You know, after Biden amnesties 30 million illegals and throws open the borders, suddenly voter ID won't be racist.
You can tell that because they have been making Animal Crossing more and more "inclusive" to try and satisfy the progressives. Male and female are basically the same, more skin tones, less gendered character catchphrases, and recently added more black hairstyles.
I would believe that these kinds of things were pushed for internally by Nintendo of America towards the Japanese development team.
Yes, things can have hidden political messages. Yes, games have internal politics within their lore.
But that's not what it actually means. The only time this phrase is ever used is when a game beats you over the head with a "future is female" agenda. That's not politics, that's brainwashing. Usually targeting people too young to see what's happening. Straight up propaganda, the likes of which the Nazis could only dream about creating.

I don't know why I expected anything else other than selective quotes.
I'm not fine with it, but I accept that hardly anything can avoid carrying the biases of those who made it.
That said, you know what people mean when they complain about politics in games. It's when the story has a thinly veiled attack at the target du jour of left-wing whining. It's when there's some tone deaf reference to women's "oppression" which is as fictional as the game it was in. It's when a game's story becomes dated after one election, because it was never meant to do anything other than try to influence votes.
Yes, there has always been games with political subtext, but where's the logic in such trash as Battlefield V flipping the gender of real heroes of the second world war to push the feminist narrative?
If you can't see the ridiculous nature of flipping real events to promote the unearned superiority of a group who did more to help the Axis Powers than the Allies...you need help.

You have to understand these companies are terrified of getting on the bad side of the Democrats / Media.
People are inherently lazy and stupid, they would rather make a deal with the Devil then lose any market share by taking a stand.
Until we fix the media this will never change.
At this point I think the window for a fix is closed. Salvage parts, maybe. Rebuild after it burns down, more likely.

It would be more meaningful if they said this BEFORE the elections are over.
As usual, Nintendo are being cowards. Have a backbone ffs!
Games are inherently political.
I hate this fucking statement.

So you're okay with politics in games?
I don't know why I expected anything else other than selective quotes.
I'm not fine with it, but I accept that hardly anything can avoid carrying the biases of those who made it.

Don't mind retardjuiced he's reddit trash leftover that somehow ended up here.
Like a diseased dog that follows you around if you look at them.
What happened to GamerGate's 'they're fictional characters' now?
What happened to GamerGate's 'they're just pixels on a screen' now?
I don't know what arguments you're talking about.

The "why does it matter if her boobs are bigger than her head, she's a fictional character"
Women did more to help the Axis Powers than the Allies?
Battlefield is fictional work no more flipping real events than Kantai Collection and Drifters
