The game with a trans leftist YouTuber as one of the voice actors is somehow anti-woke.
They're doing this with X-Men '97 now. This is after months of railing about how "woke" it was due to Morph being non-binary and Rogue's butt smh
You know what I hate the most about their tantrum? It's that the women actually show more skin than the OG in a lot of scenes, Rogue's asset also magically changed size all the time in the OG and well...https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/6/6efd6361.jpgHas Quartering made any X-Men 97 videos after the show came out?
Captain Marvel was a HUGE hit. The Marvels flopped but that's due to people being burned out by the MCU all together. Same with She-Hulk. Really
Neither were even woke.

Because it had a female lead.
Also I feel like the MCU often forget the social aspect of the x men and focus too much on being generic action movies.The MCU hasn't made an X-Men film yet.

Weren't they saying the Mario movie was woke because Peach teaches Mario and then once it became the top grossing non-Disney animated movie they tried to claim it's anti-woke?
I think technically they were saying it was woke because Peach is a strong independent woman and not some helpless damsel in distress too incompetent for her own good, which is how people who would call a strong Peach woke view women.They also hated her clothes because it was the one from Mario Kart instead of just being a frilly dress.

They have this fascinating way of moving the goalposts around and redefining things so that games that would traditionally be considered super "woke" aren't when they do extremely well.I doubt a lot of people say that because BioWare has had a liberal reputation at least since Mass Effect and Dragon Age. If the usual suspects like BG3 its probably more like, The libs did a good job that time.
Baldurs Gate, literally "frantic bi energy" the game, is "not woke" because *checks notes* "it doesn't jam that in our face". Or something. It is tiresome and stupid and I wish all vapid culture war grifters that talk about games a very fast trip directly into the sun
Captain Marvel was a HUGE hit. The Marvels flopped but that's due to people being burned out by the MCU all together. Same with She-Hulk. ReallyIm not sure I agree about She-Hulk, it definitely had those moments of pushing a narrative thats against the white man status quo, which is usually when it gets labeled woke. It even had an actual fight representative of that fact
Neither were even woke.

She still wore the dress though lol.Oh, I know. It's just an important to point out just how sad and pathetic people are who actually believe this kind of garbage. That something as benign as using a costume that she has worn for over a decade is able to get such tears from them is just the highlight about how much of a baby that they are.
These people (not you) are just looking for any reason to take a rage dump.
It's sad how pathetic they are.
Or rather it would be if they weren't so insufferably annoying.
LOL you mean Baldur's Gate 3 being one of the most acclaimed and successful game of 2023 and is full of LGBT romances?
They have this fascinating way of moving the goalposts around and redefining things so that games that would traditionally be considered super "woke" aren't when they do extremely well.I can sometimes understand the complaints, with examples in my She-Hulk comments. An example I use is that one horrible moment in Endgame that was just unnecessary and completely forced.

No they were woke
Don't let bigots sully the word
Being woke is just being basic decency
Yes those films are woke because they have female leads who don't exist as far material
To he woke is to he a decent person
People who use woke as a negative are just not good people and hate anyone who is
The Marvels flopped because it was a bad movie that focused too heavily on a cringey new hero.Whoa, you dont mean Ms. Marvel, do you? I think shes the best addition since Endgame, good actress and on screen charisma.
Captain Marvel was a solid flick that felt like an homage to Phase 1, but was also supported by Endgame releasing shortly after.
The Marvels flopped because it was a bad movie that focused too heavily on a cringey new hero.No one watched The Marvels in Theaters however one common reaction I saw when it hit streaming was people being surprised it was actually good.

But then when people complain because the movie is about a woman, or a black man, or a black woman, or whatever elsebut the whole movie plays out naturally without ever feeling like a moment was shoved in just to appease a particular audience, and you realize the complaints are ridiculous. Eternals managed to have a diverse cast without ever once feeling like they were just checking boxes. The movie was still mediocre, but anyone calling it woke is just incredibly intolerant.
Just out of curiosity.I honestly never played it, but I get what you mean. If its inline with the status quo, but still feels forced, does it get the same criticism? The simple answer is no, because the mainstream culture is adjusted to it. Its not fair by any stretch, and an example I could give would be the original romance in Eternals. Zero chemistry, completely forced, but the only complaints I saw were some on the Movies board upset about a conspiracy; not sure how many different users, I just remember the basic premise.
When I played Bayonetta 3.
Bayonetta's relationship felt incredibly forced and yet grifters universally praised her being in a heteronormative relationship

Isn't that just a meme? No one seriously thinks this is a thing.
They said this about the Saints Row reboot, and then the studio went under or something?
They said this about the Saints Row reboot, and then the studio went under or something?It failed because it was a bad game. Not because it was woke.
They said this about the Saints Row reboot, and then the studio went under or something?They also said this about Mortal Kombat 11, but then that went on to becoming the highest selling Mortal Kombat game ever. Not sure if Mortal Kombat 1 topped it.

Multiple ITT clearly do and right-wingers absolutely believe it.I wonder why it's a more recent thing, in that case. There were plenty of games from 15 years ago that today would be classified as "woke".
There are also those who say it ironically when those people claim a company will go broke because it "went woke" and it didn't turn out like that.

But even back in the day, they've ALWAYS appropriated positive words and twisted them, i.e. "PC" and "SJW". As Kradek says above, it's now"woke" and "DEI." Bigots are nothing if not consistent.

To those telling me to define woke you can do that yourself I would like to add that Tiktok went woke and it's on its way to being broke
Captain Marvel was placed between the last 2 Avengers movies and people were told that they would have to watch it because you would need to know something on Captain Marvel to watch Endgame. If this wasn't the case no one would care about it.
She-Hulk no one cares about if everyone was burned down from Marvel then Ant-man, Guardians, Black Panther 2 wouldn't have made any profit. The only ones that performed bad and were those two. Even the Guardians Christmas special did well.

To those telling me to define woke you can do that yourselfWoke is a political slang adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) originally meaning alertness to racial prejudice and discrimination.[1]
