Something I’ve noticed is how right wingers who “take games seriously” actually don’t.
They’ll create spreadsheets of games that are “woke” and then cut themselves off from engaging with those, never attempting to understand what this piece of art is, what it’s trying to say, or even just enjoying a fun game.
Attaching the labels of a ginned up culture war to games that you never cared about and wouldn’t have interacted with otherwise is not taking games seriously, it’s cheapening them both as art and experience.
You don’t need to take these people at their word. They have nothing worthwhile to say on this subject.
