Is that showing Cyberpunk higher then Horizon? I've not played Cyberpunk yet, mostly do to time but I was planning of playing it. Is Cyberpunk actually woke?
There was a bit of barely woke stuff in Witcher 3, like a women blacksmith plot that made literally no sense other then feminist bullshit, but I can't see the same developers making a full woke game.
Having played it: probably not anymore than you would expect for a Cyberpunk setting. Sure, I see people make a big deal about, for example, people in universe having sex changes. But this is a cyberpunk world. You and most other people are cyborgs, who can swap out entire body parts, download your consciousness into entirely new bodies, and use bio-tech to create any sort of flesh tissue known or unknown. Changing your sex would be trivial by comparison.
But at the same time, I cant think of the game making any sort of big deal about things like gender or race (the guy who betrays you and sets the whole story into motion is a fat black man. What woke dev would ever show a black person in a bad light?). And most of the politics in the game are done from within its own world, and stuff that exist outside of it isnt any different from typical cyberpunk fair (ie: "Corporations Bad, Hyper-Consumerism, You are a replaceable cog," etc).
