To be fair I think there’s a massive boy who cried wolf thing going on there. There’s such a big market of anti-woke grifters out there that it gets tiring trying to find people talking about games without finding people who aren’t familiar with properties complaining about stuff that fits properly (recently I’ve run into Mechwarrior 5:Clans reviews complaining about DEI being shoved into the game because they used 30 year old characters that look exactly like they did in the old rule books, or the Indiana Jones game nailing the feel of the older movies because there’s a strong female lead and Indy on occasion screws up)
Sure, some people go too far the other way, but there isn’t the almost industry of people using games as an excused to push the culture war that way.
