How Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League became a $200 million failure

I'm sorry, but are you saying that the story and lore of the game was good, but it only failed because it tried being a GaaS? 😂

From what everyone else saw, they wasted their time shoe-horning a stupid story in; sh*tting on all of the male superheroes (even literally p!ssing on the corpse of one). Only Wonder Woman got respect and praise (even from Lex Luthor, which is hilariously out of character). And then it seems like they ran out of time to actually make the gameplay good.

That certainly sounds like everything implied when saying "woke" these days, doesn't matter if you hate the word when used accurately lol
Ruining another game because of this god-awful trend is a perfectly good reason to continue hating it.
Since when a bad gameplay/cash grabbing game makes it "woke"?

By your standards most games released since the beginning of time are "woke" ...or do you only have a problem with powerful female representation in game characters?...what out Tomb Raider you are the next "woke" franchise.

So, you are saying the story was good? Ooof...
 
BG3 is one of the most "woke" games out there and made millions

Hogwarts was the top selling game of 2023, another WB woke game

Maybe it's make a crappy game and you go broke and don't worry about snowflakes who get offended if you treat people kindly in your game.
It's true that the "go woke go broke" phrase is nonsense.
It's also true that forced DEI in games mostly ranges from mildly annoying to terrible.

But the fact that two things can be true at the same time is too much for most people on teh intehnets in 2024. It's all about "black or white, or GTFO" to paraphrase. Hence you're either "woke" or "anti-woke" with no room for anything else.

Hogwarts is a good case in point here, showing how insane are the times. A "woke" game cheered on by "anti-woke" crowd while "woke" one tried to cancel it.
