Now VR games got woke too 🙈 Here is what's wrong about it.

Jetzt sind auch schon VR-Games woke geworden. Warum das problematisch ist, erfahrt ihr hier.

Jedes Mal, wenn man Assassin's Creed Nexus in VR startet, erscheint folgender Warn-Hinweis, der darauf hinweist, dass bei der Entwicklung des Spiels ein multi-kulturelles Team mit unterschiedlichen religiösen Überzeugungen, sexuellen Orientierung und Gender-Identitäten mitgewirkt haben soll.

Inspired by historical events and characters, this work of fiction was designed, developed, and produced by a multicultural team of various beliefs, sexual orientations, and gender identities.

Ok, warum muss man das wissen und jedes Mal extra darauf hinweisen, wenn man ein Computerspiel startet?

Genauso gut könnte man hinweisen, dass bei der Entwicklung große und kleine Menschen, dicke und dünne, weiße und farbige, junge und ältere, Demokraten und Republikaner mitgewirkt haben.

Die könnten sich sonst bei so einem Warn-Hinweis diskriminiert fühlen, da sie nicht explizit genannt wurden. Und man könnte noch Tausend weitere Unterscheidungsmerkmale aufzählen.

Das ist eben das Problem mit Wokeness, es ist irgendwie gut gemeint, stellt dann aber eine Gruppe vor allen anderen.

Eigentlich sollte es egal sein, welche Orientierung das Entwicklerteam von einem Produkt gehabt hat. Auf das Produkt kommt es an. Das Endergebnis zählt.

Was sagt ihr dazu? Habt ihr solche Hinweise bei Games auch schon gesehen? Findet ihr die Hinweise notwendig oder unnötig?

Notice every time you launch Assassin's Creed in VR about the beliefs and orientation of the developer team

VR games got woke too. Here is why this could be problematic.

Every time you start Assassin's Creed Nexus in VR, the following warning appears, pointing out that a multicultural team with different religious beliefs, sexual orientations and gender identities was involved in the development of the game.

Inspired by historical events and characters, this work of fiction was designed, developed, and produced by a multicultural team of various beliefs, sexual orientations, and gender identities.

Ok, why do you have to know this and point it out every time you start a computer game?

You could just as easily point out that tall and short people, fat and thin, white and colored, young and old, Democrats and Republicans were involved in the development.

They could otherwise feel discriminated by such a warning because they were not explicitly mentioned. And you could list a thousand other distinguishing features.

That's the problem with wokeness, it's somehow well-intentioned, but then puts one group before all others.

It shouldn't really matter what orientation the development team had for a product. It's the product that counts. The end result is what matters.

What do you think? Have you ever seen such notices in video games? Do you think they are necessary or unnecessary?

Einfach nur zum Kotzen. Ich gebe Dir recht, das ist komplett irrelevant und auch nicht zielführend. Obwohl, kommt auf die Ziele der Wokeness-Religion an...

I think such notices are not necessary in video games as they only project discriminatory sentiments, both at the developers and even to players. They should be dropped completely.

This is completely unnecessary. The game creators could conduct a survey among their users whether they need this information.

Few years ago, Kingdom Come Deliverance was seriously accused of being racist as there's no people of colour in the game. Which is, by the way, perfectly historically accurate when depicting early 15th century Bohemia...

Once they point it out, that's enough. If they repeat like this, it would be irritating.

I completely agree!
Ofcourse people can't be discriminated because of their religion / sexuality / gender /... But by summing up these ones, you forget other groups of people, like people with a dissability or homeless people or veterans or...
I would rather not define it and state 'different' people worked on it (not showing it every time it launches), than summing up certain groups..

There should be something like a questionnaire or survey that help them to know if players are interested in such

People increasingly have thinner skin. Self-censorship is worse than censorship.

Like "WARNING; Some characters in this game may be seen smoking, don't smoke, it's bad for you."
Totally unnecessary.

It's been happening more lately but I do agree that it is annoying. I guess they are just catering to all the vocal people on Twitter.
