Life is Strange: only slightly woke
Tomb Raider, Halo Infinite: Woke AF because checks notes female front line combatants. lol
LMFAO
I tried to check my games list and the browser crashed.
Is that a positive response?
Project Zomboid: Contains subtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. The Sexy Time and Bedroom Zed events have a 1 in 7 chance of featuring two same sex zombies.
The amount of time and effort it takes to find something like that. Weirdly obsessive over LGBTQ stuff.
I love that "Lonely Mountains: Downhill" isn't woke, even though it gives fine grained control over your characters design, like a "feminine" body with facial hair.
Umm... you mean a Ford F1-50 owner!? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Just checked Outer Wilds, which is deemed „slighly woke“ because the race of aliens to which you belong all use they/them pronouns. They do note that the race of aliens you‘re studying all use he/him/she/her pronouns.
Here‘s the thing - your race has evolved from amphibians. Hermaphroditism and spontaneous sex-change is a well-established trait in some species of amphibians. The other race are mammals, where such examples are much rarer.
For it to actually be a „woke“ thing, rather than world-building, you‘d have to have one of the mammals be referred to as „they“. Or, perhaps, one of your race referred to as „he“ or „she“. As it is, it suggests that gender is either non-existent or fluid amongst your species and therefore it makes no sense to use that as an identifier, and gender exists amongst the other species and therefore it does make sense to use that as an identifier.
And, truthfully, we don‘t know, because other than a couple of references to people „flirting“ with each other (in both species) and you being referred to as „hatchling“ rather than being given a name, sex gender, reproduction, etc. doesn‘t come up at all.
FTL isn't woke? The game where you play as the diverse Federation against human Rebel supremacists to keep them from enslaving alien races?
Apparently my library is only slightly woke. I need to work harder.
Surprised they haven’t listed any of the Metal Gear Solid games at all in their database… those are woke as fuck.
Wow this was incredible. I saved the whole page of my games so I can look back at the absurdity. One of my personal favorites:
Amputees are woke. Who knew?
Practically the only games I’ve played that aren’t woke are Frostpunk - the child slavery simulator. And Overlord, a game where you are literally the villain and command a slave army of gremlins. We live in the satire reality.
Amputees are woke. Who knew?
It’s the accessibility that is considered woke. The tricky part of DEI is that it’s actually DEIA, but that last letter is conveniently never listed when they’re talking about eliminating it. Because they know their conservative voting base is aging, and will increasingly need accessibility features.
Just wanted to point out the Metal Slug section of the list. It's woke because the frontline soldiers are women.
These "people" are mentally deficient.
Love these games. Must be why I love treating women like human beings.
This list is hilarious. It's so inconsistent. Assassin's Creed is woke because of a line in the fucking start screen of the game. Most games I love are woke according to them. What a sad existence must these people have when they cannot play all these great games. Cyberpunk? Woke! Satisfactory? Woke! Hades? Woke! Jedi Fallen Order and Survivor? Both woke! Celeste? Extremely Woke!
They should make a second meme page for it that changes woke to based and reverses the colours while keeping the comments intact.
To be fair Hades is pretty gay. Some of the classifications are ridiculous but I agree with calling hades woke. Well or based I like that more.
I mean, ancient Greek mythology IS gay.
Looked up my list and it’s really curious to see the ratings for my favorite games. Some games were marked “woke” for things I absolutely wouldn’t have thought of, while in other games I think some of the messaging flew over their heads.
Woke: Counterstrike, because there are female skins
Not Woke: FTL, where the main goal is to defeat an organization of violent racist facists.
Factorio is considered "slightly woke" since enemies attack pollution producing machinery... Holy hell these guys are insane
Nobody tell Kovarex.
Female front line troops are woke. Guess civ is out of the question for these people
Troops? Bro, even female villagers/workers are woke in Age of Empires. Apparently they want them to work less efficiently than male ones for the sake of realism: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/Woke_Content_Detector/discussions/1/4763207599014826946/
Halo Infinite is woke because "female frontline soldiers and are indistinguishable from male soldiers"
My game isn't done yet, but uuh how do I apply to be on the woke list?
Looking through the list it seems that adding optional they/them pronouns for the player character is enough.
Add a checkbox that's labeled woke mode, but never explain what it actually does.
you have to enable it to play the game, otherwise your character just keeps sleeping and the game never starts
honk honk shoooo
mimimimimi
Indie game blobun did basically that. Unwoke gamers could disable lesbians from an option in the menu. Selecting this removed the main character, who is canonically lesbian, from the game leaving it unplayable.
Based dev, lesbians les goooo
Just stick a rainbow flag in the background somewhere. Apparently, that's enough for this particular flavour of idiot.
Slay The Spire dodged the woke allegations? Two of the four playable characters, including the objectively strongest one are women. One of the remaining two is... Well, i want to say non-binary but the character is very much binary lmao.
I love Woke Content Detector. It's sold me on a whole bunch of games over the last few months. I would never have stumbled upon Kitsune Tails without their recommendation. :)
Wonderful woke games in my library: cyberpunk (because it encourages body modification hahahahahaha), dark souls 3 (the reversal ring, can't make this shit up), Gary's mod (kinda fair actually, I've heard alot of homosexual kissing in dark rp. Not that ice ever done that, for sure not, nope.) The binding of Isaac (Its one of the best games of all time what the fuck are these idiots talking about) among us (AMOGUS) halo infinity (features female front line combatants.....) war thunder (because a single tank has a skin with anime women on it. Like what, how the fucknis that woke? You idiots don't even know your own rules.) Hiveswap (gimme my fucking quadrant relationships you ducking weirdos) home front the revolution (features a black female engineer. Like, I couldnt possibly come up with anything more cartoonishly racist if I tried.) And last but not least, runescape (fair, actually, its why I still occasionally come back, gotta grind forever.)
Edit: i was shaking i was so hungry when I wrote this, but I think the misspellings and errors make it funny so its staying.
I thought it'd be fun to check the Assassin's Creed games. All super woke for about as absurd reasons as you can imagine. My favorite one though was Assassin's Creed Black Flag which is woke apparently because it shows Mary Reed engaging in crossdressing. Which is funny because if you go to the Wikipedia page for Mary Reed you'll see an 18th century wood engraving of her dressed in men's clothing.
Where most of it comes from:
Those chucklefuck lunatic reactionaries abuse the word "woke" so much in their blind hatred that it is indeed a cliche.
I'm only slightly woke apparently. I need to fix this. Is there any super gay shit i can play?
Well there is this here:
And then of course there is the obvious choice:
And IIRC they also had a handful of (possibly furry) VNs on the list.
Or just Life is Strange
Yep. I can attest to that.
i lol for the final fantasy 15 one
Contains overtly pro-DEI messaging. In Lestallum, women work in the factory while men raise children and take care of the household. There is no explanation for why this is the case.
also ff7 being subtle pro climate messaging and forced ecoterrorism lol fellas is it woke to stop an ancient alien from another world from destroying the planet with a meteor?
Contains overtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. Option to make the player character a man married to another man. Features homosexual interactions and romance.
can u believe they put an option to make a male pc marry another man in dream daddy the gay dating simulator? what's this world coming to?
asdklajdklajdakd @ assemble with care: "Contains overtly pro-DEI messaging. The player character is a WOC who can fix any antique. She immediately finds plenty of work in a town she has never been to before. 2 of her 4 clients are also WOC."
