On the plus side, those butthurt "antiwoke" curators are a great way to find cool games |

Imagine getting upset because, fictional character in video game has a less restrictive personal gender expression then you deem acceptable. We have a near infinite of games that revolve around committing violence an murder. But oh lord please heed us from these satanic developers expressing themselves trough their own artistic work. |

Maybe they could implement a filter system? "Do not ever show me games that use "them/they". "Never show me games where a black person is the protagonist" etc. People shouldn't be like that, especially in a medium where double-jumping over a bipedal tortoise is normal, but if they care that deeply and wont change, I dont want to hear their opinions. |

That, and it's a genuine comedy goldmine. Microsoft Flight simulator and Garry's Mod are listed by the official woke detector steam curator. Their reasoning litterally sounds like a Key & Peele sketch. |

Never heard of woke detector before so went and had a look. Omg it reads like satire, but unfortunately it isn't. Crazy. |

Fuck that. Add bigotry filters to appease the bigots? No offense, but that's a terrible idea. These people need to get out of their ignorant bubbles, not have more tools to stay in them. It's just as easy for you to skip reading their rants about a game as it is for them to not play the game in the first place. |

Fucking hell, their 'not-woke' list is minuscule and reasons for being 'woke' are absurd, it's more like a nazi approval rating... |

Dude, this would backfire so hard at Valve. I don't think this is a good idea at all 😂 |

In other words, gamers are mad because pp ain't hard when playing with female character. |

exactly, lmao. I read the article and ended up wishlisting one indie game they criticized for being "woke". Thanks, incels. |

Its less about appeasing them as it is giving them the options to fuck off. I'm already fed up of seeing games "spark controversy" as people review bomb them for being too woke. You accidentally fall for the bait and open a thread and you know all about the character customisation options and that its possible to romance the characters regardless of what gender you chose and how its indicative of a society that forces a broken doctrine of multicultural white guilt down your throat and you still haven't found out what genre of game it even is. I know those cunts will just choose to do it anyway, but if we have the tools we can know for a fact, without any defence of it being forced on them, that they're seeking it out to troll and create outrage. You tell them "just dont play it then" and theres a slight chance that they think theyre right, the games front and centre on the home page, blasting its rays of gay mind washing at them. If they've got the option to not even see it, they can fuck the fuck off. |

Isn't that what 'Woke' always was? A magic word with a shapeshifting definition, mostly for the nazis to throw at things and people they don't like. |

4chan's /pol/ board was such a success for internet and real world culture that the strategy should be repeated |
