It has been announced that Ubisoft's Executive Committee and Board of Directors will launch an investigation and review of the company.

This is going to be one of those “Ubisoft investigates Ubisoft and found that Ubisoft did nothing wrong at Ubisoft”-situations, isn’t it?

    Because things like black protagonists with hip-hop music in the background make no sense in a feudal japanese setting and people are sick of games being abused as vehicles for morality preaching.

    But games about dudes in medieval-looking sci-fo power armor stomping around WW1-styled soldiers do?

    And that doesn’t preach any morals? But a black guy in a samurai setting does? How come one does, but the other does not?

    Also…

    An example from borderlanfs two could be Sir Hammerlock, who was introduced as a normal (for borderlands) character early on and later in a side quest was revealed to be gay in passing.

    Maybe don’t make it as readily apparent how much you internalized gayness being abnormal. Telling. You wouldn’t write sentences like this if that wasn’t a normal thought process for you, since you did probably not have to actively consider your wording.

      Bullshit. Normalization means not making a big deal out of it, which goes contrary to the woke standard of putting it front and center.

        But like you say, if you want to normalize it, shouldn’t it be front and center then? Since that’s part of being normal, also being front and center?
