Doesn't matter if big or indie. The only one I can think of right now is Wube (Factorio dev, with the famous "shove that woke mentality" quote), but are there any other?

Ludeon Studios. Tynan Sylvester is the creator of RimWorld and the usual suspects have gone after him repeatedly but he's never budged. As far as I know RimWorld is the only game they've released, but it's an excellent game.
It is excellent, just be aware that the modding community is still super woke. A bunch of them still have Ukrainian flags on their mod images.
Yeah, there have been a number of incidents with that community. One bitch wanted to shill for some feminist charity and there was a big blowup when Tynan wouldn't let her.
My write-up on that was the one thing I regret not saving when I hauled up the anchor, dropped the sail, and left Reddit's foul shores for good.
I don't know if it was yours, but I had one of the discussions on it bookmarked: https://archive.is/CUToD
I think I was banned from Half by that point, or simply sick of the mods bullshit.
Can't claim credit for that one, but it looks pretty thorough.
I'm glad someone preserved the information in detail.
remember some quotes from it? or a username that was involved? might be enough breadcrumbs to find it provided its not been scrubbed... even if it has been theres a chance a cache/archived page exists of it.
I don't even know for sure which account I wrote it on. The one Cato linked is somebody else's, though.
And steam's workshop has repeatedly removed Third Reich uniforms mods (even though there's one still standing ATM).
They also removed the yarmulke mod made by some Russian guy (probably because the images in the mod page were mocking Jews).
It sucks about the yarmulke mod because I wanted to do another kibbutz.
Add Warhorse Studios to that list. They refused to add blacks to Kingdom Come: Deliverance even though there was a ton of media pressure on them to do so.
Speaking of them, I wonder how they're next game is going. Hopefully they still refuse to cave.
Which was still historically accurate by the way, as women in that time, in that area of the world didn't actually have a good time.
BigNic, developer of Domina.
I wouldn't abstain from games until they've shown themselves woke though. Many are just neutral.
Give it a year or 3 and they'll be more, the pandering studios seem to be running lol on cash and people that know their jobs at the moment
Yeah and it’s happening on TV and at the movies too. I’m about to graduate from grad school and it also feels like those “fuck these woke nuts” conversations, which used to be whispered in the hallways, are starting to be held at normal volume now. Anecdotal I admit, but it feels like we might be more or less clear if this shit in 5-10 years. Obviously, I just knocked on wood 100 times, but here’s hoping.
I played Frostpunk recently and as far as I remember there wasn't anything woke in the game. The game itself was a blast to play and looking forward to the sequel, just hope the devs doesn't get infiltrated by wokies.
TheFunPimps are almost certainly chill. Caught a glimpse of one of the main devs doing an online interview a few months ago and he unabashedly had a poster or a painting of a very buxom lass (think it was fantasy styled art) hanging in the background.
Plus you can easily tell how little they care about wokeness or virtue signaling if you've followed their development with 7 Days to Die over the years.
Edit: Found it. No soy on those mad lads: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyJHGXW3uUM
It is my hope that someday, I too will join these honored ranks.
