Just discontinued subscription due to Wuk and increased wokeness across SE corp.

What exactly does 'woke' mean? And why does it appear that everyone in this thread is conjuring up bizarre notions?

[Karious]

It's astounding how toxic all these replies are.

See title.

• Bought FFI for NES as a kid.
• Bought a Playstation in college just to play FF VII.
• Played both FFXI and FFXIV at NA launch.
• Own all FF main series games and most spinoffs up to and including the PS4, CIB, (including original Japanese FC and SFC games).
• Stopped playing new FF games after playing FFXV, when the series turned into DMC/Souls-like fast-twitch-based games.
• Discontinued FFXIV subscription and will not be purchasing the upcoming Dragon Quest remasters or Sieken Densetsu due to EXTREMELY poor wiring in DT, as well as Western wokeness and DEI infesting SE corporation-wide.

I don't care, go post your feelings on a personal blog

That's not very inclusive of you. You need to respect the diversity of their viewpoint.

There is a whole difference between rejecting a moronic opinion (it’s not about inclusivity) and the inclusivity of people based on the colour of their skin/gender/sexual orientation. If you can’t make that difference, it tells a lot about you.

I think by "western wokeness" it means consistent poor writing on black and LGBTQ characters that ruined movies and games, especially on existing IPs

DEI values people's color of skin and gender identity instead of talent, experience, and expertise. I don't what's the word for gender identity one, but, for the skin color one, it was called racist 10 years ago
