That's fine. I love plenty of games that are Woke or even downright bad. In fact, I dare say a lot of Woke games are downright fun, great games too. Hades 2 is currently dominating my freetime, and according to most people its the Wokiest Woke ever.
But we also can't just ignore those things or argue "well its complex and nuanced and not that big a deal and missing context" when its the games we love either.
People should not be going into a role playing video game, role playing some sexual degeneracy, then complaining that the "DM" is woke for letting them do it. If an RPG had no gayness but the gayness you (generic you) RP it wouldn't be woke at all. You'd just be gay.
As an aside, I'm sure as simulations get more and more real, issues of how animals fuck will come up. I don't see anything wrong with simulating that. I wouldn't censor it, generically. Though if you wanted your game to maintain a rating/audience you might censor yourself.
Considering, from my understanding, they had to patch out the fact that your companions will try to fuck you very forwardly, seemingly just by people trying to be friendly with them, I think there was more going on than people RPing their way into it.
Regardless, by the standards most people here crucify other games for, if the content is in the game period its woke and trash. Even if you can just not engage with it. BG3 doesn't get to be an exception because there is a good game you love mixed in with it.
Ok just for the record, I like BG3 well enough to play it. Which means a lot more than most games. So I won't say I don't like it, however, "love" I think is strong. It is deeply flawed. I just like that kind of RPG. There aren't just a crapload of choices at least as far as AAA stuff.
I heard Rogue trader is woke. I was gonna play that, too; I'm not letting people ruin it for me. Just independently. People can say whatever they want; I'm just not listening -- until I play it.

Larian's attitude is one thing.
