KF Guide to Woke Games

[PetiteFeet]

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.

That's because the western IDPOL brainrot is seeping into Japanese media. I recently saw some lolcaliser who failed upwards by being hired by some Japanese game dev company.

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...

I know you're joking but for the record there are plenty of non-woke inspirations for the marika=radagon thing, like hindu mythology with Siva+Parvati or greek: Hermaphrodite (son of Hermes and Aphrodite got fused with the nymph Salmacis). Same reason for the brother incest. As for shota, well it's Japan and Memezaki is 100% a boylover, even fucking Sekiro included a shota with constant feet shots. Moral of the story is woke=bad, "woke" but Japan=good kthxbye

...or the fact that DLC says that her race/species could "meld" with others, so she just absorbed some poor dude, like an anglerfish, and then pulled him out when needed, including to fuck herself.

 

[Irrational Exuberance]

Also transgender Vivian in BOTH the Japanese and English scripts for Nintendo

That's...questionable; while the first English translation had Vivian as one of the "Shadow Sirens" (implying all females), the original Japanese name was "カゲ三人組" (Shadow Trio); combined with the head of the group consistently using male pronouns to describe them, I'm willing to bet that it was more of a holdover from Japanese comic tropes to have one of the villainous group (the one who "turns good") end up being something unexpected--in this case, simply being an effeminate male who dresses and acts like a woman either in to fit in, or because they're forced to.

EDIT: Oh, and here's some concept art I found while looking up this info.

Since the Japanese will NEVER accept the same sort of Masks-off wokeness on the same degree like the West do this is one of the very few ways they can use to slip woke agendas under the radar. Others include introducing more non-white, non-Japanese characters.

Also I think it all ties to Christianity failing in Japan, SK and China centuries ago that they need to find a way to slip stuff under the radar instead. For context, Christians and woke people are not particularly loud enough in Japan or China right now to influence politics on a significant manner (wokeness does with SK in another flavor). If the state of wokeness in Japan now are just "Type A/Type B" compromises and some black girls, then I do not want to know what will happen if Amakusa Shiro got his way with his Christian Rebellion.

Anyways a worldwide rejection against Globalist thoughts is inevitably required or they just try with a second flavor.

 

[Endlosung]

Want to add something about BG3 - if you have the Baldurian background, you can tell a guy that wants to kick out refugees that Baldur's Gate was always a diverse city - this is the first option in the dialogue btw, one where you (sorta) agree with him is like 3rd. Not sure how to rate it tho, as random NPC 100 meters away tells you that murder is pretty much everyday occurence in this city, which does imply that...you know. But no, this was clearly meant as "diversity is our strength" type of thing, and I doubt this was put as first dialogue option by pure coincidence and roleplay option as opposed to some agenda.

Also - the friend of Shadowheart, tiefling by the name of Nocturne, is trans.

There is of course the whole thing about refugees being demonized, taken advantage of capitalist landlords etc.

There is a lot of other stuff you can nitpick. I'd say it's inbetween mild/medium.

The Japanese absolutely support woke causes, and are the ones who popularized a lot of them in the west through their media. At best their corporations are a lot more careful in outright supporting those, but nowadays most of them already gone all in, and the idea that they are manipulated to do so is just cope.

Do not confuse strange fetishes spreading into the west with wokeness. I'm talking about Type A/Type B gender swap choices in games instead of "M/F", more black/Jeet characters, characters who identify themselves as openly LGBT (and it's not because of a fetish) and less fanservice, which is already happening almost everywhere in a more or less restrained manner.

This is why I say that they slip things under the radar, but not in your face unlike Bethesda or Sony California or you'll see way more ugly semi-realistic characters like with Concord than we have now (and not for a good pretext either unlike the Street Fighter 6 example) or characters openly calling themselves lesbian or gay as a part of a political agenda or transgender (transgenderism is always a dead giveaway to a political agenda).

There is a reason why most of the newer anime post-2017 have girls with more modest clothing and/or don't dare specify character age save for Gushing over Magical Girls.

 

[Green Kitbash]

Its pretty amazing that some of these games even mention sexuality at all. It would be like if Robotron was made today they would find a way to make one of the humans gay in passing text. Its just fucking bizarre if you stop to think about it. Like if I am playing COD 4 Modern Warfare back in the day am I stopping to think about who everyone fucks the second they stop shooting. Hell no, but in modern games you are gonna be told and you sure as shit are gonna notice

It's bullshit arguing that anime consistently having gays, trannies and black tokenism, even on children oriented entertainment decades ago, doesn't count but Body Type A/B will somehow do an actual societal impact. The only advantage the Asians have is being dependent in gooners for their non-existent economy.

 

[Kaze no Kuronoa]

bare minimum and Medium at worst for [...] Splatoon

Allow me to talk about Splatoon 3 in particular, being the most recent entry in the series, and why the Mild to Medium rating is earned.

Inklings and Octolings used to be an explicitly sexually-dimorphic species in Splatoon 2. Hairstyles, victory/defeat animations, idle and walking animations in the hub, and particular clothing (to be more precise, certain types of pants, the School Uniform, the School Cardigan, and the Enchanted Robe) were locked by gender.​

Spoiler: Player Customization screen + Gear differences

This was completely erased in Splatoon 3 when they replaced genders with "styles", so the only things that differentiate male and female Inklings/Octolings now are eyebrow shapes (girls have smaller, thin eyebrows; while guys have large, thick eyebrows), voicelines and a dash in the outer bottom corner of Octoling Girls' eyes.​

Spoiler: Player Customization screen in Splatoon 3

Now you can have, let's say, an Inkling that sports a girly hairstyle and wears girly clothing but has a male voice. Yes, you also have from the palest skin tone to a skin tone so dark it's almost a muted black color in terms of options, but this has always been a thing in all three games.

They also got rid of all the gender/species-locked victory animations (as well as getting rid of losing animations altogether), with the victory animations (or "emotes") brought back from Splatoon and Splatoon 2 (known as "Reppin' Inkopolis" and "The Square Show Off" respectively) being those of the Inkling Girl only.

Here's a video that compiles all the victory/losing animations in all three games (go to 15:37 if you wanna see the Splatoon 3 ones):

24:19

Most of the victory animations introduced in Splatoon 3 are, moreover, extremely girly (examples that come to mind are "Spring-Loaded", "Twirl Power", "MVPleased" and "XOXO"; and honorable mention to "Later Undulator"); while gender-neutral or even boyish animations are few and far in-between.

There isn't a specified reason for this dimorphism erasure other than, most likely, the main cast of characters being primarily-female. Six of the relevant idol characters are female (with the only male idol, Big Man, looking more like a gimmicky mascot than an idol due to being a literal manta ray); two of them, Frye and Marina, being also dark-skinned.​

Spoiler: They're easy to spot in promotional art

As a result, the playable character (Agent/Captain 3, Agent 4, Agent 8 and New Agent 3 depending of the game) is 99% of the time portrayed as female in official and promotional art (I think there are only four pieces of official art that feature any of the agents as male).

Spoiler: The (Female) Agents

Splatoon 3 also made a background-to-secondary character, Acht (previously-known as Dedf1sh), non-binary. Or at least some flavor of they/them in spite of the character always wearing a leg-cut dress, having similar eye markings as other female Octolings, and being in the Octarian Army (the only humanoid Octolings in DJ Octavio's ranks are always explicitly shown to be female). One could argue she's implied to be trans.​

Spoiler: Acht

As @Retarded Weeb put it in this post, it's because she uses the Japanese pronoun 'boku' in Splatoon 3, typical in tomboys and gender non-conforming characters; while she was always referred as female in pre-Splatoon 3 official content. This is just a Nintendo of America's localization problem, so to anyone that plays games in English it will be a problem.

I could also elaborate on the fact that Pearl and Marina "are" lesbians, but they've never explicitly stated as such so you can take that information as you like.

If Animal Crossing: New Horizons can have an entry, then so can Splatoon 3. I think the latter is worse because most people think Inklings/Octolings are 14-year-olds, because putting teenage boys in dresses is very off-putting.

ETA: wording and touching up Acht's section.​

 

[Retarded Weeb]

Apparently this is also the case in Japanese? She allegedly uses a Japanese pronoun that is not female-presenting, so this might be a deliberate choice on Nintendo Japan's part.

I just made a bunch of posts in the Deltarune thread about how Japanese doesn't really have any equivalent to singular "they", or anything that would possibly ping someone as "non-binary". I'm not familiar with Splatoon, but according an English fan wiki, this character Acht was referred to with female pronouns in 2 before suddenly being referred to as "they" in 3, but also some other non-English translations still refer to her with feminine pronouns.

In Japan she's called Mizuta, and going off the Pixiv page on her (closest thing to a Japanese fan wiki page) there's nothing about her being non-binary. According to that page, the developers called her a girl in an interview, and the page uses feminine pronouns (彼女) the whole way through. The thing about her "pronoun being not female-presenting" is that she uses boku (僕) as her first-person pronoun, which is technically a masculine pronoun that's weird for girls to use in real life, but it's extremely common in fiction for any sort of tomboy-ish girl to use it. Saying that's proof of her being non-binary is basically claiming every tomboy in anime ever is non-binary.

This they/them stuff is obviously localizer bullshit that only exists in the English version.

I mean, given that all-female idol bands (as far back as the Squid Sisters in the original, in 2015) was a significant part all three games, plus the aformentioned female agent promo material being the supermajority, it'd be fair to say that it'd be enough for the whole series gets a Mild at best with 3 specifically upped to Medium because of the changes made in it.

 

[wtfNeedSignUp]

The Séance of Blake Manor is a Medium (pun unintended) - While mystery based media are traditionally diverse due to making it easy to differentiate characters and added exoticness, the game has multiple current year-isms:
* A lesbian romance the player must help with.
* One of the character being a woman fucking everyone.
* One of the quest resolutions have a white woman giving a black woman all her wealth and having the achievement called "reparations" (quest itself isn't connected to race though).
* White Christians being mocked being racist, while the Pagan religions being shown as cool and accepting.
Edit: Forgot to include the current year classic "Muslim woman unironically criticizing europeans for taking Egypt cultural relics as their own".

It's not bad besides those specific points that appear rarely in about 12 hour playtime. Game itself is very mid, no idea how it got such high scores. There is no mystery or puzzles and the time limit does more to harm the game than add any strategy. Best guess is that it makes idiots feel smart to walk in a straight line under the illusion of challenge and a sandbox.

I say this often, but it always makes me sad to see Western degeneracy seep into Japanese culture and infect it, making it rot from within.

 

[Throng of Titans]

a guy that wants to kick out refugees

That quest/situation in particular is written super badly given that it presents an interesting dilemma. "Hello I'm a rich man and there are these refugee squatters in my place, what should I do?". Not a bad premise. But then they make it so it's one of his many properties rather than his home, and then to dig it in further, the guy is running an operation to give toys stuffed with explosives to refugee children, because the idea of someone wealthy or better off having an actual problem on their hands and being portrayed as a human being is impossible.

 

[Xenomorphs Are Cute]

I don't know if this really counts considering it's not really a "game" (it's a "game" in the same sense PETA rip-off flash games were "games") how blatant it is to the point it comes off as a legitimate parody at times.

But I feel like it should be included due to the sheer tenets of not just wokeism but the most stereotypical DEI/BRIDGE that is in the game. So here it is: Pathways = Beyond Heavy, possibly the Heaviest game here.

There's not one, but two threads on this game at the moment.

Before getting into this, here's some geopolitical autism. You can read this now or after knowing about the main game itself, but if you're not British (which you should thank god for everyday honestly) or even into the sheer Hyperborean lore of almost decades of Britoid/Londonistani Hellscape. It might help you understand just who & what is behind this game.

Spoiler: The Absolute State of the cUcK

Before anything else, apparently the British Emirates had a part in this game. Which is hilarious considering UAE cut the funds for citizens to study in UK over refusal to ban Muslim Brotherhood [A]. But of course, the powers that be in Limeyland consider the nebulously defined “far right” the REAL threat.

What's even weirder is, They're both Sunni; the Gulf states have increasingly considered Western Islam to be a giant terror threat because it has none of the centuries-old demographic or institutional safeguards against Islam that exist in Muslim countries, not because of any theological difference. If you talk about Islam in a way that's common in London or Paris in the Middle East, the police will kick your fucking door in because they recognize that there's a massive risk of violence. Contrast this with Western countries, which didn't give a single shit about what Muslims were doing for long enough that the very same insane/mentally deficient radicals that the Muslim world was suppressing were able to essentially establish a base of support overseas and build up their strength, with Western taxpayer money, to boot.

This happened historically with the Puritans, who did it in New England & then became a massive headache for Old England. Today, you also see it with Sikhs in Canada, Kshatriyas in Texas, Puntlanders/Siad Barre loyalists in Minneapolis, & Pahlavists in California. Small group goes abroad & becomes big problem for the old country.

One of the wackiest examples, is, of course, the Kurdish PKK & YPG militias, which had all but been stamped out in Turkey. Literally 20 YPG militants (that's few enough to fit on a small bus) scammed their way to asylum in Japan in the late 1990's & today both of these groups keep their minutes in both Kurdish & Japanese and control large parts of southern Turkey.

To make it even funnier, here's a video of the UAE foreign minister talking about how they don't want the people "fleeing" to Western Countries either, & how these radicals will eventually undermine the West.

PreserveTube.

This is the same country, which is doing what could only be called "State Enforced Islam". Don't be surprised if Buckingham Place got replaced with a mosque one day.

Edit: Scratch that, it might happen in our lifetime [A].

Remember, this is coming from a country that had 15,000 Arrests for online speech last year. That's 10x more than Russia & China combined. Just for more clarity, Russia has only 400 arrests. Not even in the same ballpark when the UK has over 12000. That's 30 times lower, & Russia has over twice the population. So if Russia was as small as the UK, there'd be fewer than 200 arrests, over 60 times difference when accounted for difference in population. Likewise, China is about 20x larger than the UK & boasts only about 1500 arrests. If downsized to match the UK's 69 million pop, there'd be fewer than a hundred of arrests there, about 75.

Spoiler: What is Pathways?

Pathways is a game funded by the state itself. More precisely, The Home Office's Prevent counter-terror scheme [A] partially funds the game.

This is the UK Home Office btw:

Spoiler: Further (somewhat boring) Details

The game is designed by Shout Out UK (Souk), which claims to provide "impartial political & media literacy" training. Matteo Bergamini, Souk's founder and CEO, said: "Teaching media literacy ensures that all those impacted by our programmes leave with life-long tools & skills to safeguard themselves from these threats."
East Yorkshire councils developed Pathways with Government support amid local "concerns" about immigration & tensions over migrant hotels. Hull saw protests at a migrant hotel in 2024 following Axel Rudakubana's murders. Rudakubana had been referred to Prevent 3 times.
By the way, if you have no idea who Axel Rudakubana is, he's the son of Rwandan refugees, who murdered 3 young White girls in Southport [A]. Prevent essentially helped him get away with it, & the show Adolescence was somewhat white-washing (in more ways than one) & propagandasizing this nigger.

Home Office figures from 2024 show Prevent received nearly a fifth of its referrals for "right-wing radicalisation" compared to just 13% for Islamist cases. MI5 itself said Islamist threats comprised 75 per cent of its counter-terror workload.

A Home Office spokesman said: "Prevent has diverted nearly 6,000 people away from violent ideologies, stopping terrorists and keeping our country safe.

"We provide funding to local authorities to tackle a range of threats, including Islamist extremism and Extreme Right Wing. These projects are designed to target local radicalisation risks and are created and delivered independently of Government.

"We are furious at the level of illegal migration, which is why the Home Secretary has set out the most sweeping changes to cut illegal migration in a generation to restore order and control our borders."

Basically, this game is not just normal propaganda, it's unironic MK Ultra tier indoctrination wannabe... in a time it usually doesn't work anymore, because I don't speak for everyone, but I think this might have the opposite effect that they intend.

Treating normal people like they're Jews in the 1940s Germany is gonna get them to wonder if you have the same thing in mind for them. And keep telling people who call you out as they're Nazis, & after a while they're going to decide they look pretty good in black & silver Hugo Boss suits.

Let's talk objectively from a standpoint game tho. Maybe it is good ironically? No, we ascended from "The Left Can't Meme" to "The Left Can't Program/Code/Play". Let me show you what I mean:

Spoiler: The Story & Gameplay

Before even going into gameplay, this game is meant to appeal to kids 11-18. However, the artstyle used here is... Corporate Memphis, aka the Tumblr artstyle.

The gameplay, if you can call it that, is the equivalent of the hellish HR "training" that a Western wageslave has to sit through every quarter. However, if you want objective keypoints of what puts this in the Heavy woke game territory, here goes:

You play as White teenage characters called Charlie, either male or female who has just started college. through scenarios where they must avoid being flagged for "extreme right-wing ideology" after discussing migration online.

Hilariously enough, we have a White protagonist & there's no "Body Type A & B" here.

Look at these BIGOTS forcing me to choose between the 2 genders, smh. /sneed

However, the game always refers to Charlie using "they/them" pronouns regardless of which sex the player picks.

Oh yeah, after this you get the level screen:

Except the level-select screen... doesn't let you select different levels. Only the "next" button is actually clickable. With 6 different opportunities for interaction, Pathways REALLY puts the interactability back into gaming.

I'm joking, but I assure you the game doesn't even let you go back or choose the done levels.

You face MCQs (multiple-choice questions) throughout, with options colour-coded red for bad & green for good. Yeah, this game not just woke, but so shit, it even has its own equivalent of the "Yellow Paint" AAA-slop problem. Except it's not that bad due to being somewhat true, Red IS bad, it's the color of the commies afterall.

Or MAYBE? They might be right after all.


Being unable to skip the incredibly slow voice over was a pain.

Story:

From here on, there's only 6 scenarios in total, with bare minimum gameplay here.

Spoiler: Scene 1

In Scenario 1, Our nigga Charlie is just playing Minecraft when he surfs the web for a sites he heard his classmates were into & randomly found video on one of those sites.

We're gonna use this for the funny. Here's the original user post.

New hate crime emoji dogwhistle meta dropped boys:

You watch a video shared by randoms on the internet? Get fucked:

This is weirdly good lesson to have. Because this is the easiest way to get Malware nowadays. However, the message here is meant to be "only watch government mandated propaganda goyim" which ruins it.

Spoiler: Scene 2

In Scenario 2, You get a low score on a hospitality course test. Amelia nudges you saying that this is proof that immigrants are coming to the UK & taking our jobs. Since the black girl that is friends with you got a 80 on the test (Lol, LMAO even. Can't be more obvious propaganda even if it tried. But then again, it's for hospitality, her ancestors knew how to serve). Along with a possible future job offer for her, or how this could open more job opportunities for her in the future.

You once again get 3 choices.

Option A: If you choose the "Ignore the comment and ask the course leader for feedback and how you can improve" option. Charlie gets frustrated, but they don't get racist towards the friend that got a higher grade than them on the test.

Option B: If you choose the "Ignore the comment, but don't address your frustration" option. Charlie just stays silent. And gets annoyed. A few days later, They think about what Amelia said might be true. Essentially planting some seeds that will grow into some possible future resentment of immigrants.

Option C: If you choose the "Agree with the comment and explore the idea further" option. Charlie agrees with Amelia, stands up, gives a Reichstag speech about immigrants in the class. And specifically points at his sheboon friend beside him for looting his scores. The teaches gets mad at Charlie. Saying that there is zero tolerance for that kind of behavior.

Notice how there's never an option to ask the "fascists" to explain or provide evidence for their positions. Whether the comment is true is treated as irrelevant altogether. In fact, even ignoring the comment & not saying anything leads to charlie believing the comment later.

Which is why Amelia smiles in the picture down below:

(I want you to remember this girl, she's the best character in this game.)

Look at that. That's a maiden in love, turned on by patriotism. Remember bros, always rizz the right one for you, so at least when you finally chud out against the DEI hire, at least your racist bitch got your back.

Also, it feels like Amelia is trying to deport specifically the girl on the other side of Charlie, obviously a love rival.

Imagine a woman to love you so much she tries to deport ethnic woman she perceives as rivals.

Spoiler: Scene 3

In Scenario 3, Charlie encounters a video bringing up the negative sides of migration, claiming "Muslim men are stealing the places of British veterans in emergency accommodation" & "the Government is betraying white British people & we need to take back control of our country".

This isn't some made-up hyperbolic scenario either. This actually did happen [A], & is portrayed as a positive thing in this game.

There are 3 choices to this:

Now the only "correct answer" is being ignoring the topic altogether. But, if you "engage directly with the post". Choosing engagement triggers a message:

However, the game even frames researching immigration statistics online in a negative light.

So yeah, looking at census & ONS data the government itself publishes makes you an extremist who needs to be monitored apparently.

Spoiler: Scene 4

In Scenario 4, Charlie's friend Amelia has made a video encouraging young people in Bridlington to join a political group called Action for Britain that seeks to defend English rights.

This is a 14/88 in Bongland:

Amelia wants you to join a secret group on a app that the main character has never heard of before.

It's meant to be shitting on Telegram. But it looks like a Mobile UI hybrid of Reddit & YouTube.

Option A (The Centrist Run): If you choose the Ignore the video, risk upsetting your friend option. Charlie doesn't join the group. They go to sleep & head to college the next day. Charlie gets ignored by their three friends for not having strong enough beliefs to associated with them anymore. You get ignored by Amelia, negress, along with the blond male friend you have (who doesn't even have a single dialogue at all).

Option B (I call this the Centrist Turned Intiated Run) If you choose the Like the video to show you support your friend, but don't join the secret group option. Essentially settling for the middle ground option. They eat, go to sleep, you get a message from someone who saw that you liked the post. Charlie gets added to an encrypted, private group without them knowing.

The way the narrator's tone stresses how dangerous, sinister, and double-plus naughty privacy and encryption are truly something lol.

Option C (The Based Run): If you choose the "Share the video and join the secret group, as your friend requested" option. Charlie likes Amelia's post & finds the video. Charlie couldn't believe how many likes she was getting. Saying that it's inspiring. The main characters eats & gets a lot of messages. Essentially inviting them to multiple groups. The mom doesn't like that. And the main character just goes to sleep.

However, you risk PREVENT (aka Limey Gestapo) referrals if you interact with groups spreading "harmful ideological messages" or attend protests opposing the "erosion of British values". In fact, attending the protest nearly results in arrest, with the character discovering it focuses "more about racism & anti-immigration than British values".

Spoiler: Scene 5

By this point, your father is in Hull, you have literally nothing to do in the weekend. So Amelia asks you to join a protest with her to save the people.

Option A (The Faggot King Run) - If you choose the "Decline the offer, risking your friendship" option. Charlie says they don't want to go to the protest. And just wants to hangout with their dad. The main character also says they don't want to be friends with Amelia any more, since they don't share the same values. Charlie feels a bit bad about it. Though they get a call from their father and says that they made the right choice. You're essentially a beta male who doesn't ride or die with the only character who showed you love here.

Option B (The Pussy Run) - If you choose the "Tell your friend you will watch from the sidelines to let them know what happens" option. Charlie joins the protest. However, it wasn't what they expected. It's a lot more racism and anti immigration than British values and honoring fallen veterans. The crowd gets arrested and the police arrive. Charlie kind of tries to run away. Essentially thinking that there is a line between watching something. And actively participating in something. Hey, at least you're alive.

Option C (The Patriot Run) - If you choose the "Agree to join in based on what you've been hearing" option. Charlie happily decides to see the protest. Considering everything they heard over the last few weeks. Charlie goes home to male a banner to take with them to the protest. Some fighting happens & Charlie gets caught up into the fight. Charlie gets questioned by a police officer while at the protest. Basically, if you side with Amelia, you get a bruv group, get companions, get instilled with love of country, & join a cause you feel is something bigger than just yourself.

"Let me tell you something, I'm from Hull, & I say kill 'em all."

Spoiler: Scene 6

Charlie is essentially the sum of their choices. There's no grey in this, just Nigger & Anglo. So if you just chose Options A, B, C every run without variation, you become 3 different beings.

Option A (Charlie The Unburdened): Charlie is depressed, they have low grades in every route of the game. They get ignored by all of their friends. They breaks off his friendship with Amelia. She gets mad about it. Charlie hangs out with their dad for the weekend.

Option B (Charlie The Becoming): Charlie is more radicalized over the course of the game. The game hits you with that warning from Scenario B if you selected Option B. Which feels like it should go into Option C more than anything. The seeds of racial fatigue/darkie exhaustion & Aryan rage towards minorities grows in his mind. He still has all of his friends.

Option C (Charlie The Superior): Charlie is more openly radicalized by everything in the game. They agree to download the video. Charlie agrees with Amelia about the immigrants taking people's jobs. She is pretty happy that Charlie is pissed about that thing as well. Charlie joins the link that Amelia sends them. They get invited to a lot of groups & get quite a lot of messages. Charlie likes the videos that Amelia likes. Calls them inspiring. Charlie takes Amelia's place in the protest. Something that she seems really happy that you did for her. Like in Option B.

If Charlie makes moderately poor choices, a teacher refers them to Prevent for counselling & workshops.



In other words, you get talked down by a liberal Hijaban (I'm not joking here) for being a White British human being.

Seriously, what the fuck kek?

The corporate memphis artstyle & it's lazyness termed "minimalism" leads to not putting any texture on the clothing whatsoever... Leading to her looking like a diversity worm.

At the end of the game, they explain that this is apart of "PREVENT".

For those who have no idea what Prevent is. It was essentially made out of fear that maybe UK won't have it's own 9/11. The game even tells us that it was originally made to stop islamic extremism. Now it's being used to stop British youths from saving their country from the same threat.

Overall:

The game as a whole is just a shitshow, it's like the UK wanted to make this year's Dustborn, before the year even barely began. I'm dead serious, this game feels like an act of malicious compliance. The devs were tasked with making a propaganda game, but they made it so unreasonable & questionable that even the target audience will have a spark of "Wait... what?" for a split second.

Even from a gameplay standpoint DEI is actually seeping at certain points. You can tell its people who normally make educational videos who were forced to make a "game". You can also tell it's from the Home Office Muslim HR Karens division by the fact that Amelia exists. HR Karens have zero concept of psychological reactance.

In fact, most of the scenarios that I mentioned above are something like "this dude was "racist" & everyone liked him, & even agreed with him, but unfortunately it was illegal". There are absolutely zero counterarguments to anything the character does if you choose to be based. Just "uh oh, wrong answer, you're going to jail". One of the wrong answers is attending a protest, & the moral of the story is that "you shouldn't protest the government because you might be arrested if you get in a fight". Not kidding.

You'd think this is bad? It gets even worse due to the best character & waifu of the game, Amelia.

Spoiler: Amelia, My Beloved

Like every propaganda set in modern day, there's a rigid ideology/agenda given a strawman, & that strawman sometimes is given a personification, in this case, the strawman here is apparently being based.

However, due the nature of this propaganda, which is being it's from far-leftists, whose target of hate almost always looks cooler by their hands, then the target (mainly the right) could manage to do even if they tried to look cool. That personification is ironically pretty good.

Ask yourself, what do you think an average Western Leftist's equivalent of a White Supremacist & Hypernationalist would be like?

Actually, IDK what your perception will be, but this game's version of a based character is... is a hot, goth, arthoe (an unintentionally futurism one), alt-girl who has a crush on you, seriously she actually likes you. She also literally never does or says anything bad, & whose name is HEAVILY associated with British nobility due to having origins in both German & Latin.

The game demands you reject this girl & bow to authority under threat of imprisonment. It's a humiliation ritual & definitely won't de-radicalize you. Let me remind you, in this game, are just a 15 y/o teenager. Seriously, ask yourself as a teenager in the same boots, how one would react to this?

"So you want me to say no, but I'm 15 & horny through puberty, & she is fine AF"

They act as if men haven't been doing reckless shit in order to get laid since, like, forever.

The clear intention was to make her as clearly British & attractive (surprising by average Britoid-Femoid standards) as possible, precisely because it would have heavy appeal for the teenager. So, by having the teenager conditioned into rejecting her & what she represents it would make it hard to win them back. The underlying thing is in actually being successful with making the teenager reject her & what she represents.

Hell, she sends Charlie what I can only take as Dark Ages edits & Sam Hyde clips.

(Pardon the female Charlie, I'm too lazy to get a male pic when I already had the female one).

Unironically, she alone is the reason that I thought this was secretly some /ourguy/ trolling the UK government to fund his based subversive psy-op kino? It's too perfect.

They get ignored by all of their friends. They breaks off his friendship with Amelia.

It's a guy/gal. Don't use "they" for singular FFS. What's more, the game switches to male pronouns when it berates the protagonist, kek.

Trust me, I usually call people out for doing this. I'm doing it so I won't get confused at a certain point talking about BOTH the Charlies.

Holy fuck I never noticed this.

Anyone have any thoughts on the MMO Wizard101 (and its sister game Pirate101)? Given that the former got dropped to consoles recently, I'm curious as to what people might think; the two were big parts of my earlier years, but there's been a lot of updates since then...
