I get that argument, however at the same time I wonder if the woke shit is just a great way to get the SJWs talking about them in a positive light. The pronouns are a great example of this, even a youtuber I initially liked and praised for his content was making the point that adding pronouns was barely any effort and it made them happy.
So instead of making the relationships work as one would expect them to they can just brag about how tolerant they are as a company by allowing open relationships. The reason I think this is the case because unlike in RPGs of old from what I've seen the dialogue options barely seem to react to them. I know allegedly there's some interaction on that if you do try and cheat. However I doubt it's anything as involved as Baldur's Gate 2 where you had companions literally ready to duel to the death over romance options the PC picks.
Holy shit thinking about that makes me miss good writing even more :(
Woke shit has always been a way of trying to guarantee income from the ideologically captive. That's the whole point behind: go broke, get woke, croak.
It's a defensive mechanism to appease institutionally captured consoomers followed by massive partisan investment by ideological hedge funds devoted to propping up those political causes.
