Here's a followup question. One I'm pretty sure that I already know the answer to but I'm just interested in your responses.
I understand that the wind has long since changed but... Would you have cared back in the day?
Say you're playing Banjo Tooie and find Jolly's ...or God Hand and meet the first boss ...or the first boss of Goemon 64 - Would you have cared?
I only ask because my personal dream is having media that genuinely feels like it's from pre-2008. That means not walking on eggshells around certain topics.
I can definitely understand a complete ban though. Personally, any yuri or yuribait is always a giant blow against a work for me. Any "ironic" pro-commie garbage can fuck off too.

Back then those were clearly humorous additions made to mock the stereotype, and had been infrequent. Nigger/faggot fatigue implies those elements have been overused. I didn't mind Mister T in the A Team, because he was a loud, dumb, violent nigger, as expected from his kind, and the scenario writer would put him in situations where a loud, dumb, violent nigger would fit. Nowadays niggers are everywhere, especially in places they don't belong (academia, civilized society, medieval Europe), and as a result I want them gone completely.

Asbury Pines - Mild
It's an idler where you manage 84 people during different eras and timelines in order to solve a murder. There is a gay relationship between a priest and a cultist that gets brought up twice. The most woke thing in this game is this:
View attachment 8262107
Tiny Bookshop - Medium
The plot doesn't seem to have any woke elements but the game play of buying and selling books does. You will have customers that will ask for LGBT books and books with queer characters. Some of the books in your inventory are Ellen Page's pooner memoir, Carmilla, a yaoi manga, A Picture of Dorian Grey, some book about loneliness and lesbians and probably a bunch more I'm not familiar with. This itself would just be a mild entry, as they're real books, but the developer has chosen to interject their opinion on some of the book descriptions. It's noticeable when there are several Toni Morrison books and the developers interjecting in the descriptions about how blacks are still being oppressed. There is unnecessarily woke books descriptions as well, for The Big Sleep: The most heteronormatively masculine, "hard-boiled", noir detective story you'll ever read. In which PI Philip Marlowe uncovers a criminal plot and seduces "damsels" left and right.

Rate me late & gay but I can't believe that no one contested those ratings, from what you are describing this is easily Heavy

Having cute anthro designs in a big game that isn't some shitty gatcha thing is pretty cool.
No troon sparkledogs. No "modern audiences" women.
I'd say that they're on CyberConnect2 level of hornybait though.

Furries by themselves aren't woke, but in any western game are a lightning rod for degeneracy.

Ya, you're probably light. I rated it lower because it's a management sim, and I thought the book descriptions weren't involved much with the actual plot. https://tiny-bookshop.fandom.com/wiki/Books has all the books listed and I'm going edit the rating because I just noticed there are a few books that fall under the queer and kids label.

Edit-I can't edit my post anymore, so ya, I'll go with heavy with Tiny Bookshop.
 
Add ALL Pokemon games past Generation 7 to it as well. I have noticed a pattern that they have added more and more dark-skinned or jeet characters for each generation (and I didn't mean just "gyaru archetypes" like Canari either) and had gender neutral clothing for protags in Legends Z-A and if I remember correctly Scarlet and Violet. They've been skirting it for some time to put stuff under the radar and they are doing a very good job at it.

Also transgender Vivian in BOTH the Japanese and English scripts for Nintendo and lots of brown and black skins (also possible skirting) for Splatoon.

Maybe Mild at a bare minimum and Medium at worst for Pokemon and Splatoon but Medium for Vivian from Super Mario.

It's crazy how far wokeism has spread. To think vidya was a mostly nerd hobby just two decades ago. No one back then would care about this performative bullshit. I get why they push it in AAA games since it's all jew entertainment/hollywood agenda. But indie games? Just why? Who the fuck cares? Not the primary nor the secondary nor the tertiary audience. It got to the point where even fucking Silksong, a game about literal bugs, has gender neutral characters. Surely the devs get something from this? Like hidden good boy points from IGN and other reviewers.

Hollow Knight has lesbians and gender neutral or gender ambiguous characters. Team Cherry, while not obnoxiously woke, are pretty leftie. I don't think they got anything from that, except the game they wanted to make. They didn't need IGN reviews, because the game was a kickstarter funded project.

The funny part about these is that, rather than journos writing articles about how great it was to have representation in their murderous cannibal colony, they wrote a hitpiece smearing Tynan over how the traits were implemented and painted him as a bigot anyway. I don't think he added them as any sort of appeasement to begin with, but it's a great example on how it's never enough and you should steer clear of the rainbow hornet's nest as much as you can.

Petition to remove Rimworld from the list for being Genuinely Based As Fuck, for example:
Gay, bisexual and asexual characters can be imprisoned, mutilated, drugged, experimented on, zombified, ghoulified, sold into slavery, fed to wild animals, fed to domestic animals, fed to fellow humans, fed to the unfathomable void, abandoned in the desert, abandoned at sea, abandoned in low orbit, mindwiped, mindraped, arranged married, forced divorced, ligated, amputated, executed, euthanized, stripped naked, sent to the gladiatorial pits and starved to death, plus other things I'm not depraved enough to contemplate, optionally if you want.

It's a great game really.

Blood West should be added to the list. The game begins with a long ass cutscene of a tribal speaking of how the hwite man brought vanity, greed, and ignorance to the land, irritating the spirits into becoming monsters or whatever. And now the land is cursed because of hwitey and their iron horses. Also, there is a point where the narrator is commenting about how ignorant hwitey are, and the cutscene shows a Church.

Ok I'd like to address this and issue a clarification. As you said, Medicine Man Heya Hoya in the intro cutscene talks about how the ignorant honky and his greed and vanity has caused the great spirit to curse the land. Ok great, thank you for lecturing me, chief firewater.
Here's the cutscene. It's entirely unremarkable.
Anyway, the shaman isn't very good at his job and is completely taken aback when your white ass arises from the grave despite his best efforts to give you a peaceful rest. The following two thirds of the game involves a gimpy injun spirit totem instructing the player on how to go about cleansing cursed beings from the land, only for it to be revealed that surprise surprise, the gimpy redskin spirit totem is responsible for everything bad and YOU, Yahweh's most anti-racist cowboy, have to partner with a former totem-slaved undead and save the Western United States from indian fuckery because despite being so in tune with nature and all that, their learned helplessness subjects them entirely to the fickle whims of their goofball gods. Unironic white savior ubermensch, they will be saved and they will be crying. Also at the very end, it's revealed that the shitty spirit is not dead goes on to godzilla rampage some cities but the main character continues to fight them for ever and ever. Nice gods you've got there, red man.
There's a better case for the dlc being woke as it forces you to play as a voodoo nigger though his motivations are entirely centered around looking out for his daughter and being a good father. In an entirely unexpected move, the black guy is just a guy. The bigger offender here is the god of death's mouthpiece character (the dlc's version of the totem of souls) who has the cadence and delivery of an unfunny redditor who's favorite show is Ugly Americans. I personally didn't like it as much as the base game though it was due to the map being frustrating to navigate rather than cringe redditors and niggos.
I personally don't think the game is necessarily Based and Red Bulled™ but describing it as unapologetically woke isn't accurate either. It's set in an era where indians would have been salty.

Counterpoint, it features those freaks of nature in the first place. I'd wager most people posting itt don't want to abuse faggots and faggot-adjacents as some kind of wish fulfillment, they want them gone.

I argue the game can't qualify as None due to having homosexual content to begin with.

However it is very light and extremely easy to remove them from your game in a very offensive way. There was a smear article made about Rimworld because you were able to kill gays.

The biggest concern is that Tyrone&Co are troon enablers. They have the business sense to not be complete lunatics but the options are either for status quo or get worse.

You're conveniently forgetting that younger millenials to zoomers grew up on the internet. With everything that entails.

Genderspecial stuff and Tumblr/deviantart/discord/furfag related stuff is all they know. Queer and woke stuff isn't the exclusive domain of the rich and powerful, it's also that of the terminally online.

The avoidance of naming gender on character creation screens has been a strangely specific thing to suddenly start affecting almost every Japanese game from various publishers even when the games otherwise have no woke shit in them, that I'm feeling sure it must be the fault of some kind of culture & sensitivity consultancy agency or similar working in Japan that no one in the industry is in a hurry to publicly name as those in on it know gamers would be all over them like what happened with Sweet Baby.

It's a couple things. First that the author believes their Brave And Stunning messaging is actually important in any way, and also that likeminded trannies will throw infinite money ar uwu skirt go spinny. Only trannies give a shit about it, and trannies own the space at the moment.

Body Type A/B
Main story: Tranny girlboss marries her alternate personality
Endgame: Stunning and brave disabled girlboss is also the strongest warrior in the world
DLC: Shota empathy enjoyer marries his brother's corpse

I think ER might be woke...
