For the love of GOD PLEASE NO !!!
This means forcing them to buy D3 
So you’re silly enough to throw around a word that doesn’t have an actual definition? I think you’re digging yourself deeper here. Also, you mean political slang word.
The actual definition of “woke” has to do with being aware of societal injustices and discrimination. So you can see why I said it has nothing to do with the design of a bonus dungeon in a video game, right?
It’s ignorance at best, and you should keep politics out of the forum anyway.
That’s “immersion.” Really, though, there’s no such thing. Not until full VR gets developed, anyway.
Besides, one of the things Blizzard is best known for is putting quirks in their games. From exploding sheep in Warcraft 2 to cheat codes in various games referencing all sorts of things to Haris Pilton and Harrison Jones in WoW, they’ve literally been doing this sort of thing for 30 years. If you can’t get over that, it’s a you problem.

They should put Whimsy Shire on the list. Per the Wowhead interview. 
Will there be a Secret Cow Level?
At launch, Diablo IV will have a gritty and grounded world. A cow level, wings, or pets take away from that groundedness. As they go down the line things will loosen up.
Thank you for not being able to provide me with an actual definition. It pretty much proves my point.
Again, where specifically did you see a reference to a “bonus dungeon” when I wrote “potential excess wokeness”? You’re literally making things up in your emotionally sensitive little head.
Hey, if you don’t like Merriam-Webster, that’s not my problem.
… The topic is Whimsywhire. Whimsywhire is a bonus dungeon. So are the cow levels.
By the way, how’d your immersion go when you killed a bunch of mooing giant cows wielding spears?

Did YOU even read what Merriam-Webster wrote? First thing they say is that it’s a slang…which is exactly what I already told you. Hence, there’s no “actual definition”. Just an interpretation. So…you failed. Embarrassed much?
And here’s my original quote:
You must have a problem with reading into things. My comment was a general statement. But ok, you can imagine whatever you want to imagine.
Finally something to contribute to this thread. Great question. Yes, I actually am still feeling totally immersed killing mooing cows.
I am honestly fine with developers actually having some fun with their project and enjoying making it. If that means we get novelty secret areas that don’t fit the thematic theme, that’s fine
I really hope there are some silly “non-canon” secret areas with fun, ridiculous thems like whimsyshire.
Honestly, Whimsyshire was one of the most fun secret levels I’ve seen in a game in a long, long time.
Edit: Also, there is a reason why things like ‘dolls coming to life’ or the like are such major tropes in horror… often the scariest things are when something normally associated with happiness or beauty are turned into something horrific. And I’m ALL for that type of subversion of beauty.

Too late.
Hopefully not, I wanna see them stick with the dark themes and get away from all the colorful non-sense.

There should be a neckbeard level for all the complaining incels slapping keys in their mommy’s basement.
I just want the goblin level/realm back in some form or another.
It was. There was a “controversy” about a rainbow in one locations background near a waterfall. People list their damn minds… so they decided to lean all in on the rainbows.

This probably takes the cake for oldest D4 post necro. Wonderful job, where did you find this post 
I liked the Moo Moo Farm/ Secret Cow Level a lot on D2:LoD, but Whimsyshire didn’t bother me too much, either; I thought it was kind of fun and unique. Who doesn’t like popping pinatas and clouds, and annihilating teddy bears and unicorns? 
I prefferred raiding the vault. If there was a goofy whimsyshire. What if it pulsed like a slow heart beat every 20 secs revealing that whimsyshire was actually a hell dimension. So your slaughtering a unicorn and all the sudden you realize youve cut the head off of a tortured soul. Or smash a cloud and boom its actually a bloated corpse. A giant teddy bear comes at you with a hug until you realize its the butcher last second before the fight starts. It be a bit disorienting but maybe the more damage you do longer the pulses last till you kill the dimension. I dont know just spit balling.
