Hard to tell these days as there are some games that are legitimately full of preachy lecturing, but then there are also plenty of titles that get labelled as such but are actually nothing-burgers.
I remember Star Wars Outlaws being declared woke trash, and while it wasn't an amazing game, I never found it remotely "woke".
It's a decent game. Art, graphics and mood are great. Gameplay, story, not so much. Some like the music, I didn't. I would be interested in a sequel, but don't think it's happening.
South of Midnight arrives on PS5 and Nintendo Switch 2 on March 31, 2026.
Step into a handcrafted world of Southern folklore, living magic, and haunting beauty. The award-winning journey awaits.
Another great work from Deriviere on the soundtrack, the game's pretty to the eye, production wise they did a decent job, but the gameplay, game-design, writing, it's washed out and lame.
