It's worth keeping an eye on it. Historical accuracy was (and hopefully still is) one of the team's main aims, so it's conceivable it'll still turn out as it should.
I feel like this is a cope I do understand people treating diversity as a gamer slur these days, if you want to be taken seriously as a developer you should never use that word in your PR statements. Pick fucking anything else that means the same thing or be very, very specific.
I've said it elsewhere, but this may not be what it seems so I'm gonna wait and see.
Vavra is kind of a troll, he especially loves screwing with journalists, and he does seem to embrace controversy marketing.
I wouldn't put it past him to try and bait the journos into reporting on KCD2 with the diversity buzzword. Then to later reveal details that show that, whilst technically true, it's entirely the wrong kind of "diversity" after they start reporting on it.
I hope you're right and that's exactly what this is, but that's also why I don't get my hopes up. The amount of times we've seen devs 'talk tough' then when they've had their struggle session and gotten their ESG money backpedal hard is why things are so bad now.
Jesus christ I'll take a "no" on this one
