I will say again, fuck influencer culture with a pineapple. Of course they didn’t disclose that we already went through this shit two years ago when it originally happened.
That said, of all the recent cRPGs (defined as since Pillars 2), BG3 pretty much doesn’t lie anywhere on any political spectrum unless you’re trying really hard to find something that isn’t there (compared to say WotR having a married lesbian couple, which you also wouldn’t really learn about unless you read about their background in the original tabletop campaign since I don’t think they ever explicitly mention this in the cRPG).
BG3 is probably the least ‘woke’ of them all. All onlookers should not make the mistake of assuming every character is made with a political message in mind.
I find this type of discussion so amusing.
Quest about freeing slaves: Not Political
Quest about whether demons are like humans as opposed to being inherently evil and can overcome their "true nature": Not Political
General themes involving religion/faith, governing, nobility, etc : Not Political
Gay couple happens to exist: POLITICAL! WOKE! SCANDELOUS EVEN!
