Yeah uh what the hell was Mass Effect and the Witcher if not extremely political. You could be a genocidal Shepard remember, you could let the entire council die and push for a human only version. Most people who cry out "it's woke" just have never put it together before.

Yeah but those aren't the same on the nose reminder of real life politics that dragon age is guilty of

The game literally stops to lecture you on how progressive of a game it is, it's just stupid virtue signaling

LGBTQ people existing in video games is only "political" if you're a bigot. It's really that simple.

There are lots of games who have LGBT that literally nobody has a problem with. BG3 is good example
