Minor spoilers, but if you want a list of things that indicate to me that KCD2 is not an "anti-woke" game: * Multiple gay romances, including with a major story character * There are multiple major characters who are Roma * Major ally who is sub-Saharan African * Major ally who is Jewish

The reviews for the new medieval gay romance game are up, some sites like Guardian and IGN are giving it praises, with scores like 10/10 and 9/10 respectively. This is already suspicious to /v/ users, who comment on it on the review thread:
https://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/702003948
However, one review in particular brings attention, written by IGN, where the author further confirms on Bluesky that the game indeed got the big gay:
Not only is the "gay romance" in, there are multiple gay romances, multiple gay characters, multiple ethnicities, a whole jew pogrom questline and the major romance is with Hans, a deuteragonist from the first game, who was 15 in it
The character is a confirmed strag and game gives us choice to respond to his advances.
Bonus: Resetera user says that apparently Vavra is totes a big lefty and woke and non-chud and is pro abortion and gay rights! We were all fooled!

Chuds can't make video games it's that simple. Even if you find a game that seems to mainly appeal to a chud target audience, there is a 82% chance it's made by a communist and 18% it's made by a normal liberal leaning person, who is a history nerd.

I think the correct way to handle gay characters in something like this is to make it a secret you can discover through gameplay or conversation choices. There shouldn't be any out and proud gays, but there could be gay role playing options.

Woke games will still be coming. Even if the devs turned 180 right now, games that started development at the peak of woke trend are just now exiting the pipeline, so we probably haven't seen the worst yet.
