You can't keep Cid either as he chooses his live-in girlfriend/assistant over his dream and even apologizes to her for years of unfair aggressive comments thrown her way, once he reaches the peak of his narrative arc - he's too woke.
It’s ok, he’s attending a Shinra sponsored conversation retreat, to help him conform with daily life. However, he is on a company warning and if he takes any more time off to rest in his coffin he will be terminated.
They're just checking what they'll get away with. At some point every mildly successful video game is getting "criticized" for being too woke. If it sticks they'll continue. If it doesn't they'll drop it. It's an old strategy of the alt right mob to establish a pipeline for impressionable people.
Stellar Blade seems to have been an inverse of that where GG people declared it as "antiwoke" cuz of boob (pretty much), but when it came out and it turned out that there wasn't really a backlash against it from the libs (they hate boob you see) along with some story elements of the game, it faded
It's more of an alteration of the strategy. But yeah, the idea is the same. Same with Helldivers 2 for example where there's actually people out there claiming the game's an endorsement of fascism. Although it clearly isn't. But that leads to a few people thinking HD2 = fun. Hence, fascism = fun.
A lot of people will latch onto imagery of things they support, even if the story context of it is critical. Helldivers is a good example, another would be something like the Legion in FNV.
Probably the only way to not have that happen is to make the imagery just really shit, but idk 🤔
I saw people complaining that the player avatar in The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog doesn't have a defined gender and is called "they" a couple of times, therefore the game is woke.
(Fantastic little game, by the way. Very cute, good writing.)

In unrelated news the town of Mideel is struggling to recover after a recent ‘earthquake’
Cloud is a bit too Asian looking with his "manga hair", the wok'o-meter is getting high, so we'll only keep Cid.
"Final Realism VII"
The most history accurate depiction of good ecology.
Play as Cid, a good Shinra worker who believe in the Midgar Dream.

Spoilers for a video game released exactly 28 year old, 31 january 1997
Something that not even a guy I know has heard of.
At the same time, all of the complaining about that from reactionaries is a grift so I guess pointing it out is a waste of time 😶

Meanwhile people are being rounded up and they are prepping Guantanamo for "housing"
