Because the game sold and reviewed well, so it goes against the narrative of “get woke go broke”

Nobody except the craziest of crazy thinks negatively about woke stuff if the actual content is good. Examples of good ones from the top of my hat: Arcane S1, Last of Us S1E3, Twin Peaks S3E4.

This is how you actually influence opinions to a good direction.

When the wokeism was apparently more important to the producers than the quality of the actual product is when shit gets irritating and from the pov of activism, counter-productive.

Mainly because you can shove “woke” shit down peoples throats and they won’t care as long as they get to play a manly man or stacked chick and the story and characters are well developed. It’s just when the game is really bad that people care about it and then the studios can blame the poor performance on the alt-right as a cop out for their shitty game. I.e. Star Wars outlaws and Concorde

I feel like people might have. I vaguely remember when it first came out that there was someone on youtube uploading videos of them assaulting the woman's suffrage protester and they got taken down after blowing up.

What is woke about the game?
