If gaming studios were run by smart people they would scrap any projects they launched in the early 2020s and start over from scratch. The problem is, these are not very smart people.
Much like Hollywood, the gaming industry has been ideologically captured by Reddit-brained activists for at least a decade. Numerous media productions that began their creative life at the peak of the woke era are finally being released, with video game development often taking five years or more. The problem is, these companies placed massive bets on woke becoming the "new normal", and they bet wrong.
It should be noted that gamers in the US were the first large subculture that called out the far-left takeover of entertainment. "Gamergate" will live in history as the movement that sparked the wider "culture war" against highly organized and well funded progressive propaganda. Legacy news outlets attacked them relentlessly, but it only made them stronger.
Today, the gaming community is largely united against woke content and influence within the industry. Using simple boycotts, they have demolished the releases of dozens of AAA titles. Some of these games cost hundred of millions of dollars to develop, but they are crashing and burning due to lack of consumer interest.
Such is the case with "Gears Of War: E-Day", which some critics are calling the gayest AAA title yet produced.
Gears Of War: E-Day follows the typical woke propaganda formula - Hijack a male dominated franchise, hold onto the veneer, but hollow out the game's beloved mythology and exploit it as a DEI and LGBT vehicle. It should go without saying
