inclementimmigrant"You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books"
What ISN’T woke to conservatives/republicans anymore?
Please don’t answer that, I know the answer, but come on. Pick up a book.
Reading is woke
It’s how they getcha! That dang “Thinking for themselves!”
I’m not reading that.
Typing is woke…oh crap
Typocal woke typist
Up yours, woke typists! in Kermit Peterson voice
HollowNaughtAccording to these CHUDS, having sex with girls is gay. I’ll leave it up to you to research that logic.
InternetCitizen2think about it your cock is soaking up the estrogen right from the tapp. Woke afff*
^/s^
“Think about you’re holding her hand, and kissing her mouth. Both of which have probably had a Chad’s cock in it. I bet you tell her you love her, too, you f@g!”

You suddenly made it clear in my mind that most talk about hormones and other “gym biochem” reeks of body horror.
I am currently ingesting a cocktail of complex chemicals that are manipulating my sensory receptors, sending electrical impulses through my neural system and altering the balance of neurotransmitters in my brain.
Anyway, I’m kinda enjoying that sandwich.
Good one, although still sounding benign.
Hormones and in general stuff related to flesh is when this shit hits MeatCanyon territory.
Having a consistent definition of “woke” is too woke for some fossils.
Aielman15Woke did not exist before 2015, so everything created before that year is, in fact, absolutely based. Including all those apolitical masterpieces I grew up with, such as Metal Gear Solid and Bioshock. I wish they still made fun games instead of insisting on shoving leftist commentary down out throats. I really want to enjoy gaming again but developers are woke leftists now :(
Lucky for us, the glorious Nippon country is untouched by woke. No, I don’t know Japan and I’ve never visited it, but i play a lot of VNs, which is basically the same thing.
EDIT: In case it wasn’t clear… /s
the massive increase of “woke” by conservative began around the time trumps 1st term, it only amplyfied just befored the pandemic, and during the pandemic. when disney shows, movies, trek made all these right wingers all uncomfortable.
They had overused CRT.
They needed a new Buzzword.
DEI is the current boogeyman anyway.
CRT is also something they couldnt grasp or understanding, i felt like that dint stick too long, like woke did. crt is meant for LAW SCHOOL graduate studies. it was harder for low-brain conservatives to comprehend then woke and dei.
DEI is the new woke, but woke still is used heavily too.
Secret MusicIf Legend of Zelda first came out today, you can bet your ass these people would be complaining about Link not being ‘manly’ enough.
The first trailer of Breath of the Wild had a lot of people literally wondering whether that Link was a girl. I didn’t see a lot of complaining about it, I wasn’t looking for some though.
Also, Gerudo town. I’m not sure what kind of mental gymnastics you’d need to shit on “wokeness” and somehow filter out BotW completely from it.
Half the things those idiots like would be ‘woke’ if they came out today. Any movie/videogame/(I would include books but these chuds don’t read) including a female lead, a non-white person, or a disabled individual is doing virtue signalling and pandering to minorities. But back then, chuds didn’t have the internet to tell them what to hate.
There are tons of things that nobody cared about years ago that wouldn’t fly today. Fairy Oddparents having a male individual become pregnant. LOTR’s Éowyn killing the witch king on her own. Avatar: TLA has a few ‘woke’ episodes as well - for example, one where the male leads learns how to fight from a woman, and another where the female lead needs to convince a male wizard to teach her magic, which was a man-only practice.
If they were released today, you’d find them in thumbnails on YT with “cringe”, “woke” or “DEI” written in CAPS all over the place.
Absolutely. Also Power Rangers for having a diverse cast that includes girls who kick ass too, and Captain Planet for having both a diverse cast and ecological consciousness. And X-Men for the same reasons they shat on X-Men '97. And Sonic the Hedgehog for being anti-authoritarian and having little PSAs about tolerance and being a good person. And Justice League Unlimited for showcasing female heroes just as much as male heroes. Powerpuff Girls for obvious reasons.
Back then they called everything they didn’t like “satanic” or “evil” anyway. Before they realised they could trick idiot kids into joining their cause by calling it “woke” and packaging it as rebellion instead of pearl clutching and puritanical nonsense.
And Sonic the Hedgehog for being anti-authoritarian and having little PSAs about tolerance and being a good person.
That would be very funny to complain about those because those PSAs were enforced on the studios by the FCC. Lots of cartoons from that era had them, including fucking G.I. Joe (that’s where “Now you know, and knowing is half the battle” comes from).
Later Animaniacs parodied the shit out of these with absurd “wheel of morality” segments.

As it turns out, not a lot.
Many diverse characters all fighting back against their unfair economic situation.
“… and that’s terrible.” .
FenrirIIIThe only books these dumdums pick up are the ones getting thrown onto the fire
Cleaning your ass after shitting is woke.
I hope my simple annoyances of painting my nails as a man gives these type of people high blood pressure.
The fucking Secretary of Defense doesn’t wash his hands either
TIL, my mom works in the Department of Defence.
(Bitch never wash her hands and says I’m paranoid and germaphobic 🤨)
No no o no no no. It’s FEMININE to not have shit all over your asshole all the time.
medsal15Hat Everf Fends Lan’s Men As I Ly Woke
Someone named “Everf”, who like to wear hats, is protecting me against the goons sent by someone named “Lan” as I lie down, awake?
Really doesn’t work with this format, honestly.
Perfection
woah a book, sounds “woke”
Anything that vibes with the voting base.
I mean, if you look up “gamergate” and see the real reason why these little whiny bitches had such a shit fit. You can see that a lot of male gamers are a bunch of whiny little bitches who throw idiotic tantrums whenever anything highlights women in the gaming world.
CorkyskogWitcher 4 devs adjusting to Unreal Engine after years of REDengine:
Damn you. I will never not upvote this! It perfectly encapsulates conservatives and maga freaks…
Lots of respect for Doug Cockle, the VA. He could use the outcry to try to get another big deal and make more money as the main character, but instead he recognizes the witcher is bigger than him or his character and is happy to have another person take the lead role and the spotlight.
ShaggySnacksThem books are woke.
Females characters who live independently.
ehhhhhhh
I mean Ciri does but she’s a child throughout the books.
Yennefer and Triss are almost only as independent as their insatiable lust for Geralt lets them be. Kind of like Triss and Shani in the Witcher 1 but I’d argue they’re worse in that game than in the books
honestly though, calling it woke makes me want to check it now…so 🤷. I am not sure woke is the insult its intended to be.
How is work an insult? What am I supposed be?
Asleep?
conservatives use it to shut down arguements, of things that they are potentially wrong about, which includes everything they dont like. but mostly refers to traditional male and female roles(no lgbtq+)
Ikr, idiots would rather be asleep at the wheel of life.
“You can’t just have Geralt for every single game.”
I mean… Yes. You literally can.
Mario, Sonic, Zelda, Metroid, Kirby… You can create infinite video games with the same main character over and over again. Its like an infinite money glitch if the character is popular and well liked.
The difference is that none of those characters had their stories wrapped up.
Geralt’s story was wrapped up in Witcher 3. That was the whole point.
WahotsWhat happened to him in the end? I remember her sacrificing herself to the winter, but all I remember is Geralt living and then the post game DLC. Maybe I got the really weird ending, haha
There were multiple possible endings for both Geralt and Ciri, including endings where Ciri survives.
Sterile_TechniqueThere were multiple endings depending on the choices you make throughout the game. Same for the two DLCs.
The ‘good’ endings were in the base game she confronts the winter and succeeds, returns to Geralt as a father figure, and lives on as a witcher. Then in the Blood & Wine DLC, Geralt basically retires in his own vineyard.
FizzWitcher 4 starts off with Geralt waking up realising witcther 3 was all a dream and he has plenty of story left to monitize.
Oooh, the rare reverse Jacob’s Ladder scenario!
STFU, ghost of Dallas executive producer Leonard Katzman!
I felt similar about people wanting MC back in Halo.
