Life is Strange: only slightly woke
Tomb Raider, Halo Infinite: Woke AF because checks notes female front line combatants. lol
LMFAO
Project Zomboid: Contains subtly pro-LGBTQ+ messaging. The Sexy Time and Bedroom Zed events have a 1 in 7 chance of featuring two same sex zombies.
The amount of time and effort it takes to find something like that. Weirdly obsessive over LGBTQ stuff.
I tried to check my games list and the browser crashed.
Is that a positive response?
FTL isn’t woke? The game where you play as the diverse Federation against human Rebel supremacists to keep them from enslaving alien races?
I love that “Lonely Mountains: Downhill” isn’t woke, even though it gives fine grained control over your characters design, like a “feminine” body with facial hair.
Umm… you mean a Ford F1-50 owner!? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Just checked Outer Wilds, which is deemed „slighly woke“ because the race of aliens to which you belong all use they/them pronouns. They do note that the race of aliens you‘re studying all use he/him/she/her pronouns.
Here‘s the thing - your race has evolved from amphibians. Hermaphroditism and spontaneous sex-change is a well-established trait in some species of amphibians. The other race are mammals, where such examples are much rarer.
For it to actually be a „woke“ thing, rather than world-building, you‘d have to have one of the mammals be referred to as „they“. Or, perhaps, one of your race referred to as „he“ or „she“. As it is, it suggests that gender is either non-existent or fluid amongst your species and therefore it makes no sense to use that as an identifier, and gender exists amongst the other species and therefore it does make sense to use that as an identifier.
And, truthfully, we don‘t know, because other than a couple of references to people „flirting“ with each other (in both species) and you being referred to as „hatchling“ rather than being given a name, sex gender, reproduction, etc. doesn‘t come up at all.
Apparently my library is only slightly woke. I need to work harder.
Just wanted to point out the Metal Slug section of the list. It’s woke because the frontline soldiers are women.
These “people” are mentally deficient.
Love these games. Must be why I love treating women like human beings.
Wow this was incredible. I saved the whole page of my games so I can look back at the absurdity. One of my personal favorites:
Amputees are woke. Who knew?
Practically the only games I’ve played that aren’t woke are Frostpunk - the child slavery simulator. And Overlord, a game where you are literally the villain and command a slave army of gremlins. We live in the satire reality.
Amputees are woke. Who knew?
It’s the accessibility that is considered woke. The tricky part of DEI is that it’s actually DEIA, but that last letter is conveniently never listed when they’re talking about eliminating it. Because they know their conservative voting base is aging, and will increasingly need accessibility features.
Surprised they haven’t listed any of the Metal Gear Solid games at all in their database… those are woke as fuck.
This list is hilarious. It’s so inconsistent. Assassin’s Creed is woke because of a line in the fucking start screen of the game. Most games I love are woke according to them. What a sad existence must these people have when they cannot play all these great games. Cyberpunk? Woke! Satisfactory? Woke! Hades? Woke! Jedi Fallen Order and Survivor? Both woke! Celeste? Extremely Woke!
They should make a second meme page for it that changes woke to based and reverses the colours while keeping the comments intact.
To be fair Hades is pretty gay. Some of the classifications are ridiculous but I agree with calling hades woke. Well or based I like that more.
I mean, ancient Greek mythology IS gay.
i absolutely love your proposal. petition to make this happen
Looked up my list and it’s really curious to see the ratings for my favorite games. Some games were marked “woke” for things I absolutely wouldn’t have thought of, while in other games I think some of the messaging flew over their heads.
Woke: Counterstrike, because there are female skins
Not Woke: FTL, where the main goal is to defeat an organization of violent racist facists.
Not Woke: FTL, where the main goal is to defeat an organization of violent racist facists.
Ehh, I’ve played the game a fair bit over the years and haven’t noticed that detail
Isn’t the rebelion’s whole deal that they’re human supremacists?
I didn’t use to read the texts too carefully when playing, so idk, I don’t remember it. But Wikipedia agrees with you, so I guess that’s how it is.
Come to think of it, even if they missed the narrative motivation, they would still have to count it as woke because it has female crew members who are just as efficient and strong as male ones. I shit you not, that was their complaint regarding Age of Empires 2 and 3…
The human supremecist plot is told through bits of text but also the fact that all rebel ships have 100% human crew.
Meanwhile the Federation (which is the government the player is fighting to preserve) values diversity and attempts to make peace with all the aliens.
One of the achievements you need to unlock one of the federation ships is to have a crew with at least 6 different species or something like that.
Factorio is considered “slightly woke” since enemies attack pollution producing machinery… Holy hell these guys are insane
Nobody tell Kovarex.
Female front line troops are woke. Guess civ is out of the question for these people
Halo Infinite is woke because “female frontline soldiers and are indistinguishable from male soldiers”
Troops? Bro, even female villagers/workers are woke in Age of Empires. Apparently they want them to work less efficiently than male ones for the sake of realism: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/Woke_Content_Detector/discussions/1/4763207599014826946/
The bottom of the website says it’s a joke.
THIS website is a joke but its pulling from a real list that isnt a joke and is entirely unironic.
I figured traffic to this site vs the original list was better for everyone so I didnt include the original source.
Oh damn that changes everything. Hilarious and now kind of sad though, thanks for sharing.
Ahhh word. Some of the stuff was so insane I legit thought it was parody
Yeah, but anyone can click on the links to the more detailed explanations, which are even more unhinged.
Even so, there are enough stupid people that seriously believe this stuff and think their opinion is more popular than it is thanks to such jokes
insane One could even call them… woke
Slay The Spire dodged the woke allegations? Two of the four playable characters, including the objectively strongest one are women. One of the remaining two is… Well, i want to say non-binary but the character is very much binary lmao.
It’s almost like it’s all made up, stupidly arbitrary nonsense
Iirc the website is a joke
This specific website is a joke but its sourcing its information and the list from a legitimate steam curator group that actually unironically thinks these things.
Yea but the YouTuber who plays it a lot is a jerk. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Who?
Jorbs? I can’t remember it was so long ago. He seemed like a european maga if that makes sense.
