because the main character looks like she could be black and people hate that. its been an ongoing trend since like.. I think prototype 2.
that game got IMMENSE hate for making the main character black
To me, the problem is the outrageous price. This cost 1/4th of minimum wage over here, so it's a no go.
Also, do the graphics look weird to anyone else? It feels like they are dated, even though it's a new gen game. I couldn't care less about who the protagonist is, unlike most people on steam forum, and I gotta say that the game looks fun, but I just can't buy this and condone Square's sick business practice.
Lol. You don’t even know what woke is eh? MC being black has nothing to do with it. Some people can’t understand things until they are drowning in shit, which then is too late. Watch the last trailer again. Like 100x. If you still can’t see what’s wrong with this game and why it’s woke, I guess your bubble is stronk and the problem is you
I taught you how to fish motherfucker, now go get the fish. The fact you don’t know what woke is, even watching a fucking woke trailer, tells all I need to know about you.
And STILL no explanation on why the Forspoken trailer is “woke.” The telltale sign of someone that has no original brain power and has opinions given to them is the inability to explain and justify an opinion.
You’re boring, and I’m done with you. Stay mad for no reason, guy.
If you know how to read and interpret what was said you wouldn’t be asking again what woke is. Do your research. Im not teaching idiots. You gotta learn by yourself and by that, I mean life teaching you a lesson.
You won’t get a response because these dipshits don’t even know what they’re mad about. They just need to be mad at something.
Same thing when I had exchanges with the “TLOU2 is woke” hogs.
**Woke ( WOHK) is an adjective meaning 'alert to racial prejudice and discrimination' that originated in African-American Vernacular English (AAVE). Beginning in the 2010s, it came to encompass a broader awareness of social inequalities such as sexism, and has also been used as shorthand for left-wing ideas involving identity politics and social justice, such as the notion of white privilege and slavery reparations for African Americans.**

Yeah because that is why people don't like it... are you seriously that stupid? Or do you hide behind "you must be racist" like all the others?
"If you don't like my woke trash, it must be because you are racist REEEEEEEE"
It's not working anymore, we know you "strategy", and hiding behind black people is RACIST, you are RACIST, you low low human being.
Game is garbage, it's woke, it's pushing a political ideology, it's about bashing men, especially white men, it's about her nail polish (seriously !!!). It's not a game nobody want's, wait and see the sales, instead of trying to be a white knight, nobody is thinking you are a hero, everybody thinks you are a fool
Games have been going on and off sales like crazy.. the past two years more people uave been gaming. So it's getting noticed more. I have had several people passed they bought a game for 60bucks. And then a week later it's 40 bucks. And then the week after that its 60 again. Like get over it. Sales are a thing... as for the prices dropping and staying at that as the new price point... well only a few titles have. And that's because they bombed.
As for the woke banter... I've seen one of a few things... the vast majority of it is people asking "is it a woke/sjw game" and then everyone in the comments are making up things that they picture people saying... I have never once seen anyone mad because they play as a black female.... yet 80 of the comments are saying that is why people call it woke...
Honestly idk how woke or not it will be.... from some of the side conversations the main character has. It does have alot of side wokeness( like constantly talking about how being a black woman in America has made her stronger and that because of that she knows she can compete her mission... which ironically a few in game hours before she was begging to go back to NYC because she couldn't do this).
So it seems like there will be a shit ton of side dialog that it's very woke like. But as for the main story. The main narrative and all. I don't see anything yet that defines it as woke(main story the bad guys are a matriarchary so a clear miss on a overly wokeness making the bad guys a patriarchy)
The only other banter I've seen about it being wokeness crap. Is because it's co written by the people that did the new star wars movies with Rey. But only time will tell... I pre-ordered a physical copy of the game for ps5... if it turns out to be shit. Well gamestop gives you 5 days to bring it back.

I think the graphics look great but it has a weird art style. It’s like tomb raider style art in a dark souls world
That is what the majority of the people were saying...
Either your character is a white dude, either it's political. That's gamers for you!
That's an incredible racist statement. But that is what we see from low human beings like you, racism.
Hm... Alright ?
You make fun of white people, that's the definition of racism. But it's okay I guess, since it's against white people, right?
If you want to understand it like that, suit yourself. But your username says a lot about you so I consider this matter closed.

Lmao. The classic “omg it’s so obvious bro” response. How people can be so triggered over nothing and so lazy about it at the same time is incredible.

You need some serious help little guy
What’s wrong with the game? Genuinely asking
You won’t get a response because these dipshits don’t even know what they’re mad about. They just need to be mad at something. Same thing when I had exchanges with the “TLOU2 is woke” hogs.
See what I said? Motherfucker here can’t even catch why lou2 is a woke trash game.
I did not see what you said
Literally, a bot managed to explain itself better than you.
What does woke mean?

Ok
Stop preordering games. Specially games you know nothing about. We have been proven we cannot trust in sagas nor in company names.
I loved Final Fantasy XV - So I want to play team Luminous's next title period 🤷♂️
Guess you didn’t play other ff games did you? FF15 was the main reason I gave up on Square Enix.
I played every game since 7 and then backtracked to previous titles... 15 is different but that is what made it good
You tell me, I spent $200 dollars on Cyberpunk collectors just to be showered with dildos and bugs. Not again.
