    I think thats what they were conveying here. They mentioned previously that valid complaints might be dismissed simply because the game is currently under attack by the "anti-woke" crowd and therefor any complaints are seen as just bigots attacking them game even if said complaints are valid and unrelated to the 'anti-woke' whiners.

    And for sure I've seen this with TV shows, but I don't follow much game stuff and it doesn't blow up enough on twitter to hit my feed most times lol.

    That was literally my entire point, valid critique being drowned out under a sea of "OMG DEI BAD!!!", and Devs and the "Woke" gamers lumping ANYONE who doesn't 100% fawn over a game all in the same group.

    The guy saying "Man, I feel like these colors are way too bright and garish for the setting you're trying to portray here" are lumped into the same group as the guy saying "Man all these pronouns are killing the game, it would have been amazing if not for that!"

    there are also people who genuinely believe (or completely commit to the bit) that if every game character isn't insanely fuckable and/or jacked dudebro then it's woke. if you don't want to stick your dick in a female character blame the fucking libtards. Like people were calling Horizon woke and yassifying Aloy to 'fix it' and idk, could be Poe's Law but they seemed to mean it.

    Remember when horizon 2 was coming out and they had a weird angle on her face and everyone flipped out about making her ugly compared to part 1?

    Remember when Square could publish completely monocultural RPGs with no diversity like Vagrant Story and FFXVI? oh wait

    Steve Bannon won. Gamergate indoctrinated an entire generation and radicalized a shit ton of white chuds into the hate pipeline. All we're seeing today is a toxic cocktail of dudebro incel horseshit devised by him in order to galvanize the loser "oppressed" white youth into voting Red (and make a shit ton of money on the grift, just like his WoW bot-farming, gold-selling days), and it worked. Ooooh boy howdy, did it work.

    I hadn't noticed the part in the opening post that said Firewalk was former Bungie people, and honestly it explains a lot lol.
