And leave reviews saying “Bought this game because it was on the anti-woke curator’s list. Thanks”?
Edit: it seems like people understand this post as a “let’s buy non-woke games”. I mean it as “use the list to find ‘woke’ games” and buy those. Not mindlessly, of course. But review-bombed “woke” games can have a harder time (especially in their forums), because of such curators and it could be a good way to discover actual good games that are subjugated to hate coming from these curators and groups.
It’s absolutely hilarious that right-wingers think that Sweet Baby fucking matters. They do sensitivity reading. They just write a little report about how the characters or writing may be considered insensitive, then the devs decide if they want to change anything or not. Getting all bent out of shape over that is cringe as fuck, there are real actual problems in the world, we have pedophile billionaires running the fucking world, dude. Leave the culture war garbage in the trash. It’s class war time baby!
You’re assuming much. I’m not right wing, nor do I care for the anti-DEI movement either way. Why I advise against playing games they’ve had a hand in is because every game I’ve played that they’ve been credited on has kinda sucked. Whether it’s SBI’s fault or not, they haven’t proven to be a good marker and thus I don’t give my money to the corpos that work with them.
This is probably just confirmation bias. The list of games they have worked on is pretty small in the large scheme of games (1-4 a year with the exception of 2023). A lot of the games are enjoyed by the wider gaming audience (Alan Wake 2, God of War Ragnarok, Sable, etc). Most of the ones that are bad (like Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League) are bad because of things outside the part SBI took in the game.
The wikipedia page has a lot of good info on the nontroversies plus a list of games they have been involved in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweet_Baby_Inc.
