The setting isn't historical and France had an african slave population that still lived there after it was abolished, so they have africans living there at the estimated time of this game (late 19th, earth 20th century). The big plot twist at end of act 2 kinda makes sense for what is in this setting and you only see them in the prologue.

It's not like it's 12th century france or something. And not as bad as the nonsense in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2.

Outside that, really nothing else woke I can think of. I'd rather have more games like this than the slop they've been putting out or the shit on TV.

The game is an excellent game and game of the year.
