Any game involving Africans has to be woke, according to them and the devs have been fighting a barrage of trolling and obvious racism since the game was put up on steam.
Black people: *exist*
Racists: NOOOO YOU CAN’T DO THAT REEEEEEEEEEEE!!!1!1!1!!!
The game is about stealing African artifacts from the Western museums, set in the future. Of course, racists hate it and are going to call it ‘woke’. I am personally very intrigued by the concept.
How’s the gameplay? Anyone know if it’s good?
So, it’s ok when Indiana Jones does it but not the other way around.
It’s not about consistency. It’s about “I want therefore it is my divine right and other people aren’t valid”
not like these ppl even go to museums
Obviously, they’d be in danger of learning something.
I had no idea this game existed, and your description just piqued my interest, so it seems like they may be Streisanding this shit lol
It is precisely why I had to add the description because when I checked out the game upon reading this original post, I loved the idea of the game.
I feel really bad for the devs. Just trying to make a game and they get bombarded with harassment, racist bait, trolling, etc.
Is there anything to be done about this?
Edit: I reported a few threads for being obvious harassment
We should all be reporting these racist fucks and their reviews too.
Steam reviews and community are both absolute cesspits all flooded with any kind of ism or ist because capital G Gamers and to bait for awards.
They could try not being black and from Africa
(Hopefully no /s needed but you can never be too sure these days)
Ngl I wouldn’t have needed a /s if we were in the early 2010s, but nowadays I’m not sure if someone is joking or actually serious.
Same, reported for harassment on a few of the blatantly racist jerks.
Is the British Museum the final boss?
Yeah, reading Steam discussions ruined my day. Just full of racism under the vale of wokeness… Those fuckin’ “Is this game woke?” threads we see everywhere these days might as well be “Does this game have any non-white male characters?”
They are worst that the stupid asses calling for characters to have a gender option in games with a story. I mean, anyone here didn’t enjoy Die Hard because they could not relate to John’s gender or sexuality during all those fun action scenes?
Now, on a totally unrelated topic:
Looking to buy this game, but I wanna know before giving them any money; do the devs prefer a penis or clit in their mouth?
It’s hilarious! In the “is the game woke” thread, someone literally wrote:
To make analogy. In your world/culture its okay for China to steal all our furniture, devices in all western homes if the product is “made in China”. It once belonged to China and could have been stolen…
It is so fucking stupid, because games would be so insanely boring if every character interaction was between straight, white, cis-het men, and no female character could ever pass the Bechdal Test.
Just like with movies and TV shows, I enjoy a variety of games that cover the entirety of the human experience. Why the fuck would I want to limit that??
yea but these gamers aren’t thinking about you, or about the quality of art
because this is what they want, they want the ethnostate in fiction just like they want it irl. they are white supremacists first and foremost
The Steam forums are the most repugnant and racist-filled psychotic right-wing shitholes I’ve ever encountered (and I once went to the Stormfront forums). Genuinely, Steam forums exhibit the most pure and concentrated anti-woke, “every single thought in my head was placed there by Ben Shapiro”, “blacks are the real racists”, x-phobic bigoted brain cancer on earth. I block them where I find them, report the ones that seem actionable, but it’s like trying to hold off a tidal wave with a tennis racket.

“Surely this person is sheltered”
(and I once went to the Stormfront forums)
buddy idk what you’re doing on steam but the worst I get are youtube tier, which can sometimes be Stormfront tier but not higher than that on average.
I stopped using them a long time ago. Since they don’t seem interested in moderating their own forums in the slightest, Valve should really shut them all down. The Steam forums are such cesspits of hate speech, bigotry, and toxicity that I actually feel dirty every time I buy a game on Steam. That is not okay.
