The game would have sold equally well without the globohomo makeover. That's what's really galling. Vavra threw his work to the wolves for no reason.
Czech tard wants to be part of the western dev circlejerks.
Why would he do that when he had Bentley already?

Urbanite Slavs desperately want to appear sophisticated and "Western".
And Vavra is clearly the archetypical insecure nouveau riche kinda guy.

No, it would have sold even better.

Making KCD 2 woke was an astoundingly stupid and unnecessary decision. Such a complete failure to read the room from Vavra and the rest of Warhorse. Nobody woud have noticed nor made a fuss about it if KCD 2 would have been woke-free. Warhorse would have had a perfect launch for the game...

The sad truth is that only a minority of consumers cares about political leanings in their media and will swallow whatever is presented as facts to them. They didn't care that KCD was accurate and they won't care that KCDII is deliberately falsifying history. In fact most of them will probably assume the game is right about the presence of blacks or homos.

I think the issue lies more with the fact that most people don't know about this.
The urnalists didn't mention this in their reviews, none of the marketing has any gay romance or black characters in them. Everyone expected "diversity" to be more slavs, maybe germans or hungarians.

The only people who know about these inserts are the ones who follow these news closely.

On the other hand, it is such a 'minor' addition compared with Veilguard or other woke games that this seems okay to a normie. Others who see the game being marked as woke think it's a 'hate wagon' and ignore it because their favourite studio could ever never make a woke game.

If only more people were aware of this, the numbers would most likely be lower.

I'm assuming the impact of the drama was/will be significant, but we'll never know since there's no visible metric that we can see. Only Warhorse and whoever has access to their preorder refunds can make a guess at the total impact.

Regardless, KDC2 will sell well, as expected. Perhaps it was robbed of a true "Witcher 3" moment that all the journos were anticipating, where KCD2 becomes the new favorite in the industry, but that can still happen.

The next few days are crucial in how the game will be recieved. Either it's the best thing ever or the drama will increase. Vavra's really not helping by posting dick picks and unmitigated rage-smuggery on his twitter.

Rosa is perfectly fine, don't be autists.
Coming from the guy who gave a generous 92% for Call of Duty Black Ops 6 and a 98% to Soy of War wokenarok, your opinion can be safely discarded. It's 100% certain that you like slop and enjoy it.

I didn't review either of those.

Look, I understand that you all would rather bang your bro Hans and are too shy to admit it, not judging, nothing wrong with that, but there's no need to hate on the game's women or disrespect us simple folk who prefer them. Being straight is not a crime.
Are you talking to yourself now? You are the one who played Dragon Age Veilguard and KFC2. You should transition next.

Putting Veilguard and KCD2 unironically in the same bag clearly shows how much the culture war has fried your brain to the point of cluelessness. I pity you, my brother in Christ. I hope some day you'll be able to enjoy games again :salute:
In some ways KCD2 is worse. They deliberately hid all this shit and tried to get people to buy the game without any prior knowledge (after previously purporting to be anti-woke).

Yeah Veilguard is more overtly woke, but at least Bioware was honest and didn't try to nefariously smuggle in the wokeness. This is trying to covertly move the overton window, the more I think about it, the worse it becomes.

As if they had any say in it, Vavra gave that up for £38m. You don't seriously believe the 'I have creative control' line do you?

This whole debacle of hidden woke reinforced my idea of what is to come.
Devs, game studios and journos will lie MORE about "no woke" when the reality will be the opposite.
I'm stating the obvious but don't buy it if you don't want to support "return to faggotry". Pirate or wait for reviews to make up your mind.
I can stomach a certain level of woke but not when I am lied to, fuck you Vavra.

Yup. Seeing how much people rebelled against the games that were opened with it, studios will (if they are smart) hide it better. Vavra knew what he was doing, that is why he got angry when people found out.

My tolerance for woke shit is 0% at the moment. We need a cleanse. No lgtvhd+ shit in games for few years until the palette is cleansed

Finally we get to see and hear the Wakandan scholar in action!


Warhorse basically pulled Noble Savage Stranger in the Strange Land.
Educated, well-spoken black man with unaggressive charisma and knowledge that looks like superpower to the unwash masses, thrown in the midst of ignorant, filthy, violent Europe.
The way they denigrate their ancestors, while uplifting proud builders of one mud mosque to status of ethereal wisemen, is disappoitning on so many levels.

Never have ever seen decline like this, will not even pirate this garbage.

If you dial the time back a few centuries, it was actually true.

Why would they have the same shitty combat system as the predecessor? It was criticized to hell and back for being very counter intuitive, whereas they could've gone for something fast and simple like Vermintide's.

Ah yes, we get the "mandatory" 15th century nignog import playing it dandy over the wordless (N)PC with no dialogue options to sit his ass down. And an old man with a poorly voice acted american accent and cringy dialogues to top it off no less.

We have the goty Morgoy's been shilling about guys, rejoice!

Yeah, IDK, this whole situation seems kinda dark and gay.
BTW, chuddha didn't really help on this one.

Maybe on the next one.
The wokes are celebrating KCD2's success and think they owned the chuds while still hating the game and GamerGate supporter Vavra.

Well, he's still in the company. If he was fired fast like rocket, and claimed it was because they added homosexual relations he didn't wanted... He might be millionaire with Bentley and two nuts from pure gold hanging in front of him, but he'd also have dignity (and good name for trying to save game and getting fired for that).
Instead we saw he's trying to cover what they did. And I don't like that.

This reminded me of this girl. I can't shake the feeling she probably wouldn't do his recent mistakes.
