Yes, it has a strong female girl boss, an over representation of POCs, and most of the white men are inept, stupid, and subordinate. But we won't call it woke, because we call everything woke.

Whereas I don't want to be treated like a mouth-breathing moron by someone who honestly, genuinely thinks that their audience is too stupid to notice, and can not be bothered to write something better.
I could be one drink short of black-out drunk and write a better main plot on a napkin than this.
The concept of Fallout and Fallout 2 was to bring the experience of TableTop RPGs to a computer game. Fallout 3 was made for a Console 'Tard audience who was almost too stupid to breathe and certainly too stupid to read any dialog. As a result it made huge amounts of money.
Let me guess. The first time you played Fallout 3 was on an X-Box? That was your first experience with the Fallout franchise? Am I close?
Yes. Go ahead turn your nose down on console, feel intellectually superior, or whatever else makes you feel good. It won't bother me.
It is nothing to do with the hardware. It is everything to do with the audience.
Before the console, PCs were an expensive tool used by professionals. Computer games propagated through white collar professionals and their nerd-spawn. There was an entire body of work on PCs only that were only available to hard-core hobbyists.
Text Based Adventure games, then Graphical Adventure Games, Flight Simulators and Space Fighter Simulators, Real Time Strategy Games.
Then consoles arrived. The console is a toy. It has a few buttons. Interactions are limited to a controller. You can't possibly program your own games. Console gamers can only sit down and consume the pre-packaged content.
X-Box players think that Halo was the first ever FPS. They run and gun through every game, skipping the dialog. They can't even type.
Entire genres of games disappear because for decades games are made for consoles and then ported to PCs.
Because console 'tards have no experience playing games, the have simple tastes. They don't get complex stories or game mechanics. They don't understand or care for rich game-play experiences.
For example the last three months of Bioshock development was spent ripping out story and simplifying gameplay so Console 'Tards would like it.
At the time of Fallout 3 the entire fucking world was declaring that stupid, insipid game to be one of the greatest games of all time. It made thousands of top ten lists. All of the 'tarded fan-boys were ranting about how stupid isometric turn based combat was, and how FPS was the way of the future.
I bet you never played a single session of any TTRPG before you played Fallout 3!
Decades later consoles are drying up. The 'Tard Tax for consoles isn't worth the exclusives you get.
The Console 'Tards are finally starting to get educated as to what a great story or good gameplay can bring to the artform.
Now you are whining and complaining about how these idiot children know nothing other than Roblox, Minecraft and Fortnight. About how Zoomers are vomiting stupid all over your beloved Mass Effect and GTA.
Enjoy. You fucking earned it.
