I honestly think these games are dangerous. They're competently made and thus a good use for propaganda.
Exactly. It's successful propaganda and I see a lot of people supporting it.
to paraphrase what Rockwell said, if our enemy is in the movies, we must be in the movies, if our enemy is in the comic books, we must be in the comic books...
i'm doing what i can, but we need real countercultural game studios popping up left and right, and they have to really compete with these monsters, not just make Kyle Rittenhouse and Jesus Kill The SJWs 2.
The woke virus has evolved. Pure wokeness cannot survive as real talent is pushed away for DEI points and you get disasters like Dustborn or female Ghostbisters. It's like a very aggressive virus killing the host too soon.
So the best is the SBI model. Slither into an existing successful system and layer woke on top of the nearly finished product like dropping a turd in the punchbowl. It's why a lot of great shows have an amazing first season then go woke as shit when renewed.
Last of Us 2 was a well designed game in terms of mechanics, set pieces, etc. which mostly was utilizing the first games systems with some improvements. But the wokeness was hamfisted in the story and characters (take a most likely male character and slap a female head on it, add lesbian romance, etc)
