Is Kojima going woke?

When everyone's already moving on from this shit, Kojima's gonna jump in now? Are the Jews and Muslims from BlackRock still giving loans for this crap
 
Kojima will be anti woke woke woke. Meaning he will subvert the subversion and then turn it upside to then be the opposite of whatever it was you think you might want him not to be the opposite of when he isn't seriously actually having an oppositional position against but secretly for the side that you think he is not really on side of while also being on the other side at the same time.

Also, a hind d?

It would be helpful to have a universally valid definition of "woke." Some people already use it if the lead is a woman or non white. Others think it's only woke if a black woman with one side of her head shaved is effortlessly beating up groups of men while shouting to her female asian lover "Kick their/them/theys' asses!".

Woke is another term for 'social justice' and has replaced SJW.

So a game or movie can have a girlboss, gay, trans or whatever type of character and not be woke. But if that character doesn't fit in the narrative and worldbuilding, if that character forced or out of place then that means it's woke.

People who says woke and antiwoke crowd are the same or pretending to not understand what's going on in the western entertainment industry are incredibly dishonest or very very stupid to me tbh. No offence.

That's fine and dandy but on this forum woke means protagonist is gay, black or a not fappable woman. And if it's Sony it's always woke, even if it isn't. Also reposting lies about the plot found on twitter is fair game.

What recent Sony games aren't woke in some way? Astro Bot maybe...

Wolverine will be Woke, Intergalactic shapes to be extremely woke, we have female God of War coming and I heard rumors about next uncharted with female lead.

Even without lesbians, "strong independent female" is pretty much everywhere in Sony games. And when you have male leads like in Saros Wolverine, you will see their masculinity being ridiculed be female characters that could do everything better than them and can't be evil or make any mistakes.

The problem is now some people label a game as "woke" for simply using a female character as a protagonist
 
i love and bought his games from MGS1 to MGS4 , Lunar Knights DS and more until Death Stranding 1

One of my favorite youtubers and she liked and played death stranding 1 but she give up playing death stranding 2 and through her gameplay i feel DS2 is boring

if he really goes woke then i will still buy his games but not at Day 1 launch price but 80% off at digital stores

Nobody is doing that. Noone label Resident Evil games woke because of famale protagonist. Stellar Blade, Tomb Raider, Mirror's Edge etc. there are countless games with female protagonists and nobody calling those games woke.

But if a studio intentionally defeminize female characters, uglify them and turn them into male wannabe girlbosses then it's woke. Because they are doing this because of male hating identity politics. Western entertainment industries became incredibly toxic and hateful against male audience. This whole thing is result of that.

Kojima has been on the progressive and globalist side way before the whole woke moment was even conceived as it is today. It doesn't help he has always been obsessed with Hollywood and stuff for decades.

It's not that the well has been poisoned, it is just that it was never so much in the face. The whole nations without borders from MGS and Death Stranding's isolationism and you will own nothing and be happy were all indicatives of the globalist agenda.

Bro I have seen people saying re4 remake went woke because they added female iluminados in the castle. The anti woke crowd for the most part is as annoying and retarded as the woke crowd.
 
Rockstar is the perfect example of a company that has historically been left leaning but doesn't really go all in on wokeness

They are, but the good thing about anti-woke over woke is the anti-woke don't produce anything but rage bait YouTube videos I don't care about. Woke makes entertainment and ruins it. One is significantly worse in terms of my care.

But the best way to also defeat woke is just not buy their crap.
 
Fragile, Mama, and Tomorrow far too good looking for Kojima to be woke. If were like a woke western dev these days, the actresses faces would have been butchered when they edit the facial capture for the in game model.
 
I can't remember a time (going as much as 3 decades back) when Kojima wasn't 'woke' - but because his games occasionally featured exposed skin, both sides of this so called 'debate' have been bending themselves into pretzels trying to deny it (for equally dumb reasons).
