The thread looks pretty split on whether this is a jab at anti-white wokesters or just run of the mill anti-white woke shit. Until I get something definitive I'm inclined to just avoid the game.
This is precisely one of the reasons I've warned against doing anti-woke content. Not outright going to call people retards but understandable I think some are so fed up of any woke shit even satire they simply don't want to see it in their entertainment when they're trying to unwind. I think the whole anti-SJW routine is pretty over-saturated these days despite how much you can get cancelled for it.
The joke is this does look like my kind of game but I've been down this route before with the Dungeon series. As the reviews have rightly pointed out, it's been going more and more cartoony lately with the style and everything lately which begs the question. If you're supposed to be able to play as someone evil, who exactly does this appeal to? War for the overworld did a much better job being a game for evil players in my view, get that instead. Don't get me wrong, the original dungeon keeper games weren't terribly serious or anything but they still didn't hold back on evil acts etc. either. If I can't set my enemies on fire and turn the area into a blood covered mess I'm not interested. It's like having a Warhammer game without blood.

So what you are saying is that they need to add a DLC for it xD
In other news did you see the age of sigmar warhammer game? No blood and no kill animations and ofc a woman as the campaign leader. I'm lucky that none I know seems to like age of sigmar.
No I didn't but I'm not fucking surprised, been turned off from warhammer gaming products in general since they've been going woke. CA did this with Total War Warhammer and it's amazing how often the fanbois went out of their way to defend it. They were going "Hnggghh but you guyz they need to make the blood DLC so that they can get their PG-13 rating hngggghhh!" The thing is these arguments are that retarded I am not shocked we're now finding out that their own employees are often in on this shit with wasting their lives trying to argue with people on forums to protect their shitty business decisions. If something is objectively bad and there's a user desperately trying to defend it assume they're an NPC.
Edit: Oh god I just watched the trailer and they're turning the art style into World of Warcraft.
Yep, the art really is WoW, but even Wow had more blood xD

Should I assume you are a npc regarding battlebit? (jk), Since they still does not allow private servers, they need to be listed and approved on their list and have severe limitations when it comes to being able to progress, Which is just bunch of bullshit.
LOL! Hey now, I like Battlebit but I won't defend them if they haven't got private servers up yet. However what I will point out is those poor fuckers are on Unity and they're a three man team and I happen to know what a nightmare multiplayer networking is on that engine so I'm somewhat sympathetic to them on a professional level. I were them I'd get a bunch of autists porting over to Godot immediately and then they'd probably have a way easier time dealing with stuff like that. Everyone involved in Unity got fucked over including me.
They got "private" servers, it's just that they require it to be whitelisted in order to join their main server and even then the progress is disabled, which even if unity mp is a pain in the ass (i know tried to dabbled with it a bit) this is merely the server list repeater, it's should only be add setting saying non official sever and then add it to filter list. It is as basic as it gets .
Edit: The guides are out date for setting up servers. Progression is now allowed, fucking discord having all info, Sorry for pushing this.
I would have posted an archive of the thread but archive.today seems to be not loading for me this morning.
For those out of the loop, Kolypso, the publisher, has fallen in the direction of censorship of wrong stuff when they censored the remake of Commandos a few years ago and have not pulled themselves out of that since then.
To defend them a little bit and give them the benefit of the doubt the series is known for tongue and cheek humour but at the same time I wouldn't be shocked if they have gone woke. Not going to get my hopes up like with Larian Studios.
What is the context that line is said in though? After all, you are playing as the villains in that game, so if it is one of your people saying it: duh? You're the bad guy.
I figured. I had played a little bit of the 3rd game when it fell into my backlog, and it seemed like it was more focused around the humor than anything else.
It is impossible to parody wokeness because any outrageous shit you came come up with has either already happened ( often preached in universitiy classes ) or will be sincerely argued-for soon in university.
Calls and celebration for White genocides are nothing new, the recent flavor to it is rubbing it in our faces that our age pyramid warns of the catastrophic population crash incomming.

Fuck discord.
Sega has been "nickel and diming" gamers for quite a long time.
Sell you a game and a Sega developer eats for a day. Sell you a platform, and a Sega developer eats for years.

Here is what I archived.
Thanks, I'm getting a dead link through OP now.

Archive worked fine for me, but I may have just had better timing. Here you go.

Might just be a meme, in the store description there such things as "it makes your dungeon great again"
They might just be going for edgy humour.
The girl in the banner is actually hot, so that's a good sign

The overall series type of humour tells me this was parodic and edgy in nature.
I figured. I had played a little bit of the 3rd game when it fell into my backlog, and it seemed like it was more focused around the humor than anything else.
Was it sincere, or parody? No way to tell :
