What is a "Woke" Game

[Kai_Mao]

I’m not totally comfortable talking about this kind of stuff, but I’ll say this: “woke” is the most overused, politically/culturally charged, misunderstood, and misused term in recent memory. The thing about “go woke, go broke” is a backwards statement, as it assumes that anything that goes “woke,” will go “broke.” As if there aren’t any example of successful games that went “woke.” If we’re having issues of games or other media now due to cultural/social issues or “woke,” oh boy..wait until we talk about multimedia works from not even 50-80 years ago.
