It has a wide-sweeping effect, though.

The point of games like Veilguard, Dustborn, and AC Shadows is -- as you noted -- to push the overton window. They are so extremely Left that when someone who used to be centre makes a moderately Left game, everyone jumps on it with glee.

This two-pronged attack is quite successful. Forspoken sank so Baldur's Gate 3 could swim.

Think about the amount of people ragging on AC Shadows but gleefully swallowing the Kingdom Come 2 goyslop with gay Henry.

Force-feeding the Veilguards and Concords onto the market also forces those centre and centre-Right to creep over to the Left.

For example, before Split Fiction, think about the games Josef Fares made previously. Did they star two females? Were they overtly feminist?

A lot of times the reaction from studios who aren't full-blown woke is to move a little bit to the Left so they don't get accused of being "racist, homophobic, antisemitic", etc. People lap it up because a previously wholesome franchise that adds a little bit of Liberal Progressivism isn't considered that bad because people are saying, "Well, at least it's not Dustborn/Forspoken/Veilguard".

Think about how many so-called anti-woke YouTube channels have come out of the woodwork to defend Kingdom Come 2's gayness?

The amount of channels I see constantly throwing up the "We have no problem with faggotry! Faggotry is fine! We just don't like this particular messaging of faggotry!" is quite telling.

At this rate, we can expect in a few years for those same anti-woke channels to start throwing up "We have no problem with faggotry or transgenderism, we just don't like this particular messaging of trangenderism!"

And a few years after that, replace transgenderism with pedophilia...
