keenkoon"Woke people are saying non-woke games are woke to boycott non-woke entertainment", wtf?
zeroxxxSo Baldur 3 woke or not? Genuine question.
JohnEdwaI can confirm that the romances aren't gender locked.
I can confirm that there are fairies in the game.
Depends on your definition, but doesn't appear to be. The developers haven't gone out of their way to ham-fist any ideological messaging into the game, while allowing people to craft whatever character and story they like. Still, few people have actually played the game, so we won't know until it drops.
For right wingers like you minorities existing equals “ham-fisting ideological messaging into the game”.
Whatever you say bro!
You can use the character customization to make a black man. Woke.
Unless there is asian option…
NeatoYou can romance same-sex NPCs so I'd bet the right-wing would call it woke.
Confirmed woke then. Not hard to answer the original pic.
Beyond comedy lmao
yeah thats gotta be a KenM style satire, too stupid to be real
Yep, says woke people.
Define “woke” and explain why you are using it as a derogatory.
Shit man, that means WoW was pretty woke with all the same sex avatar simulating rubbing on Ironforge.
And don’t get me started on dwarfs doing it with elves, same sex, different sexes, thresomes and moresomes…
Most things are "woke" by modern bigots. That's OK. We should always points out to conservatives that most things are woke so they GTFO and leave us alone.
Oh, man, you misread me like crazy.
There are a lot more than only 2 viewpoints on anything of any complexity, such as social issues.
The only people concerned about wokeness are the same exact people who perpetuate Whits Fright conservative bigotry. If you have to ask, yes, Baldur’s Gate is woke. That game is SO woke it will actually FORCE your children to turn into gay black trans ANTIFA supersoldiers hellbent on eradicating America. If you don’t want to play a woke game, do not play Baldir’s Gate 3. Don’t play the first two either - I did as a child, and now I make sarcastic posts trying to piss off humanity’s worst.
RoundcatI may have seen a woman in it.
IntroversionAnd lived to tell of it!? gasp! /s
woke doesn’t even mean anything anymore
for gamers, woke = minority.
There’s a gay person in my game? Woke
A black man or woman is the protagonist? Woke
TigbittiesIt must be hard for them to live in the real world.
“I can’t believe they made real life political!”
They don’t live in the real world. They live in some conservative fantasy land manifested through sheer force of hatred and bigotry.
It actually means a lot of things. Because it’s a dogwhistle.
At this point it's a train whistle but the bigots have been hearing it so long they're deaf.
True. Might as well be a foghorn.
Just a modern dog whistle, used by the worst among us.
Wait, amongus is woke now??
JackbyDevYes, they refused to violate the Geneva Convention, just more woke big government trying to wokify gamr
It never meant anything. It is just a slur word invented by right wingers for when they face repercussions for their bigotry. They regularly switch out the word when they think it has outlived its usefulness. Older terms were PC and SJW. None of them meant anything.
Used to be it meant “not asleep”, in that you were aware of social injustices. A la “wake up sheeple!”
But it was co-opted by right-wingers as a catch-all term like “political correctness”, and has since lost the original meaning.
It was around the 2015 US presidential campaign when the shift happened.
What having zero personality does to a motherfucker
Also constantly being bombarded with propaganda from the day we’re born. Some folks figure it out, others fall in line with it
MxM111What?
Biitching about everyone being “woke” = having no personality.
Because they’re just a parrot, with less charisma or intellect than an actual parrot.
🦜 RAAAAHHH Go woke go broke go woke go broke
When someone says “woke” I immediately assume that they have an opinion of the thing in question that they know will be seen as sexist, racist or -phobic in some way that if they said directly would get them called out on.
It’s just another cowards way of saying “I’m not racist but…”
ultrasquidPlatforms should start considering "woke" a slur, cause that's pretty much how it's used.
« Sorry for arriving just now guys, I **** up late. »
“I fuck up late”?
He’s saying if some is considered a slur, then it will be censored, if it’s censored then you get odd looking and confusing sentences like that
Black AOCThink they call that the “Scunthorpe Dilemma”.
Can something be a slur if no one is offended by it?
deejay4amThus successfully agitating liberals into censoring a word that originally was created by the black community to highlight the calling out of systemic racism and it’s lasting effects on society.
Which means the assholes win.
Not woke does not mean racist.
People who base their identities about calling things woke or not woke are in fact very likely to be racist, or sexist, or homophobic, or transphobic.
100% true nonsense.
Or some people don’t appreciate the bullshit constantly pushed?
Depends on what you consider bullshit. And if you complain about woke you probably have stupid opinions.
True that some ‘woke’ game suck, like that most recent sain’ts row. But that’s because the writing is terrible, not because it includes minorities. Just an example
The bullshit wouldn’t be pushed if marginalized people in our society would be treated the same as everyone else and you know it. Grow up and stop being annoyed with black mermaids ffs
Like what? what don't you appreciate? What exactly and specifically about it is bullshit? Are we too afraid to say what we actually hate about the content being presented?
Margot RobbieI think it’s gotten to the point that anyone who actually uses “woke” as an insult just looks completely ridiculous now.
“But you’re just gonna power right on through it, aren’t you?” – Lana Kane
Ten years ago it was called “politics”. Keep your women and non-Anglo Saxon politics out of my war games based on real world conflicts
RomTen years before that it was “political correctness” when gamers weren’t allowed to use the n-word.
I don’t use it because it’s social suicide, but I think either everyone should be allowed to use it or no one should. But that’s like an opinion on USA tipping culture. You can have your opinions, just don’t exercise them unless you’re ready for trouble
norapinkI don't use it because I'm not black so it would be racist for me to... But you do you.
Also I just don't have the desire to use it.
