If they are not the majority they sure are the ones making the loudest noise on the net.  I have not seen any game that has stuck to those basic references called woke. What I have seen a lot is that any game that goes against those references get labeled woke in a heartbeat and you only have to go to just about every internet forum to see the word thrown around like a giant hammer.

Well its not always about the game itself. Its about the people behind it. If a developer or a consultant on a game has said on social media that they dont like white dudes or just white people in general(which happens way too often), then why should I as a white person support that game? And developers who say shit like that is not going to have a straight white male as their hero. Because that would go against their woke agenda. White people are either evil or bumbling comic relief in these games.

If a developer or consultant said he doesn't like white people and decides to not put them a game, why would that be woke.  Would that not be racist? Now what if that same developer says, he doesn't like black or Asian people so he isn't going to put them in his game, would you still support that game?

Can you tell me what developer stated they do not like White people or white people in general since you stated this happen often but unless there is only one developer making a game, I find that hard to believe.

Do you need for the character to be a straight white male dude?  If a game doesn't have one of those requirements are you immediately believing that a team of probably hundreds are all woman, non white or gay deciding that this main character definitely needs to be something other than straight white dude.

It just seems diversity is really getting to you.  You do know that the reason you are seeing more diverse characters is because dev teams are made up of more diverse people.  Creative people probably getting tired of just doing dude bro 1000 so they do something different.  Is it threatening the status quo, you bet but then again, games are reaching a much bigger market today than they use to.
