Its not about the "lack of a white guy".

I didn't say "lack of a white guy".

People play games as escapism. They dont want to get force fed, agenda driven politically messageing, even if its just in the form of DEI characters.
Cuz usually when its one thing, its goes over the top.  They consult with these DEI firms, that then alter gameplay or story and such, and it effects the devs creative vision and sometimes just stands out too much (again its supposed to be escapism).

Which DEI firm did they consult with?

Devs from BLack Myth Wukong actually said they got coerced by DEI firms to pay them like $7million or they would review bomb it.
They didn't bother.... and to be honest... why should a chinese based games based around "a journey west" have anything to do with DEI?

This is also sometimes why theres big differnce between journalists that review games and score them, and players.
The avg person just does not care about these things, while DEI journalists that make up a large amount of game reviewers, do.
(either that, or journalists are scared to get cancelled, and thus all score things higher if DEI is there)

The devs didn't say that. Someone else claimed that this happened to the devs.

Except that didn't happen either. This game was pretty poorly reviewed. So what are you talking about?
