Its so funny that in the indie scene LGBT people are known for making amazingly quality games but somehow in the triple a world they're ruining them?? Doesn't compute to me.
Many triple-a games are going to shit, they're made with the goal of maximizing profits, they aren't a labor of love and creativity in the way that indie games made by a small team or even a single person are. Of course the people spouting "get woke go broke" either don't understand this or they don't care because they have an agenda. So they push the idea that "wokeness" the idea of portraying LGBTQ people in a positive light, or even recognizing them at all, is what is ruining games, and not corporate greed and cutting of corners that AAA companies often do because they think it'll maximize profits.
It's so funny that you seem to equate quality indie game with a quality triple a game. I'm really good at golf when I'm playing against friends but put me up against someone making a living playing golf and I'm straight trash. Indie games that are good arent known as indie games, theyre known as the amazing start up that made the triple a sequel to the first game that put insert name of small gaming studio on the map.
