So if the game is good and centers around those things its a good game.

But if its bad and centers around those things, its woke. Am i understanding you correctly?

Kinda -

There will always be a background level of online misanthropes labeling everything woke, but that only gets attention if there nothing else remarkable about the game.

So if the only online dialog about a game is how woke it is, the game probably isn’t very good.

I can probably find dozens of games in my library that had mediocre, unremarkable stories. If we change their white male protagonists to someone black or gay, suddenly it’s “bad because it’s woke”. Doesn’t that make perfect sense???10&@?
