Then you underestimate normie gamers/geeks and their inability to resist FOMO. AC games have been copy/pasted garbage for going on two decades, yet they keep selling. The Rise of Palpatine still made over a billion dollars after TLJ killed the franchise.
And as far as hating the woke shit, I distinctly remember a lot of posts on this forum complaining about the woke shit in BG3, by people who are supposedly not normie gamers, who then went and bought it anyway.
The title is right on the money. Lowest common denominator slop is the future of gaming, because gamers refuse to stop paying for complete shit. We deserve everything we are getting because we keep voting for it with our dollars. I have said it before that I am ashamed to call myself a gamer these days, because gamers are fucking idiots.

It's not just "normies". People here consider themselves "non-normie" yet the majority of talk in the last several days here has been about what? A non-normie game(s) that aligns with their values? Or is it this normie game that is woke?
But we need to talk about it to fight against this company doing evil things! (paraphrased)
Sure. It's necessary for most of the posts here to be about it. Great strategy, making sure everyone who participates constantly has this "normie" woke game on their minds because of the sheer volume of talk about it. "There is no such thing as bad publicity" might not be an absolute truism, but it has some truth to it.
Hint: If you want people to avoid playing this woke "normie" game, perhaps the best thing the "non-normie" gamers here could do would be to talk about "non-normie" games that aren't woke? i.e. actually offer them an alternative.
