Based on the trailers and how Lucia was portrayed in them - I would say no (but voted maybe).

Imagine being this obsessed with wokeness.

Devs, publishers and game journalists are obsessed. Every action creates a reaction.

It'll definitely have a blunted edge compared to the old ones.

But I doubt it'll be full bore woke insanity compared to some of the other crap out there.

We've already seen hot girls in bikinis and attractive people in a hetero relationship, which would make a lot of studios clutch their pearls these days.

But I voted Yes anyway because I never pass on a chance to call something Woke Slop mwuahahaha

The game's development time was so long, that it had to be delayed further because a lot of jokes had to be rewritten.

Someone find this post years later and make me look prophetic!

Game will be based.

But woke too.

They'll try to please everyone, and probably succeed.
Personally, this is all I what I want from the game in this regard:

- Honest satire, make fun of everything and don't hold back. Be as offensive as needed to be legitimately funny to intelligent adults.

- Not a single woke ideology instance forced upon the player from the game itself. Characters can do and say whatever they want, but no such thing should ever feel like it comes from the game itself, as was unfortunately the case too many times in RDR2.

- Main narrative and writing as good as RDR 2010 (which is the best Rockstar game).

- Full body customization. This includes weight and muscle systems. Maybe even limited plastic surgery.

- Adult themes at least on par with CDPR. This includes full nudity. No downgrade in strip clubs interactivity compared to GTA V.
 
It's probably gonna have a mix of chud and woke elements most probably, if they are smart they are gonna troll the extreme of both sides.

We know lucia is hot and we have seen sexy bodies, sexy dresses, ass twerking etc.

It's probably gonna be similar to cyberpunk if not a bit woker.

Some of you guys and your "woke slop" gaf infestation are utterly insufferable.

But with that said, I have to admit the batshit over-the-top craziness of it all is...kinda entertaining.

It's almost the weekend. Share your opinion GAF.

Lucia raising a child together with her aunt at the end of the game?

You joke but I that's basically the end of Ghost of Yotei. I could definitely see them kill off Jason at the end even though he'll be the character with the better morals and personality.
 
I don't think it'll be overly woke.
There's a higher risk the woke crowd turn on them for an insensitive depiction of something.
 
What would make it woke slop to me is if it feels preachy about the some social issues that all woke media focuses on, and if the parody and satire shifts from making fun of everyone to exclusively making fun of of the Bluesky/Era approved topics. I hope that's not the case, but you never know.

That said, it is going to make fun of right wing/conservative ideas (because that IS part of making fun of everyone) and every character isn't going to be a straight white man and half naked woman with massive tits, so I'm sure plenty of people here will complain about it being woke no matter what.

I could see that.

Yeah it won't be "woke", it will have satire that resembles it, but not truly woke.

And to be slightly serious. It's 2026, not 10-15 years ago when woke was at its batshit crazy peak. So no one except a few on the purple forum would "turn on them" now.

And these days the peak of the batshit crazy MAGA / manosphere has just passed, so they too will eventually crawl back under their rocks too like the peak woke scum more or less had to do.
 
It's probably best to define what 'woke' means in the context of GTA. Yes, the series mocked troons and used politically incorrect language, but it also savagely mocks the entire conservative American worldview in its radio stations, and has re-iterated the same "dark side of the American dream" theme throughout the series (aka anti-capitalistc messaging). The reason the games continue to be set in America is because it's just so easy to satire how insanely backwards the country is (not sorry). So yes, in many regards the games have always been 'woke' depending on the audience's interpretation.

RDR2 was really woke compared to the first game..
Click to expand...
Indeed.

Difference in writing and themes with the absolute work of art that is RDR is night and day. The entire cringe and out of place Sadie Adler cartoon, all the random "he's the best of us all, we're luckly to have him" Lenny asslicking, just some of the stuff you would never in a million years find in the original game. You can feel the interference in the sequel from miles away.

The comparison between actually perfect female characters like Bonnie or Luisa in RDR, and Sadie in RDR2..

I've spend literal thousands of hours in it, and I love it, but you would have to be literally blind to not feel the colossal difference from previous R* work.
I'll just choose to be naive hoping GTA VI is going to be different.

I hope not...but if you look at the period of time this game has been in full development and all the ousting of leaders its easy to see how it could be woke slop.

But I dont think it will be pronounced like spider-man 2

Of the big games wolverine will be way worse, gta6 will be like watch dogs 2 where there will be a stranger or side quest that makes you go... oooooo okay then.

I think it'll lack the comic relief of the other games, probably have more serious tones and messages.
Other then that. Expect something like RDR2
 
I don't think Rockstar has the balls to be snarky about society in this one. I wish they did, but I am expecting next to no meaningful social commentary for this game.

I hope they prove me wrong. Left and Right needs called out in this game.
 
It is going to be woke, at least a little. What big western game isn't woke nowadays? It's going to be censored to death and the only jokes made will be on western / christian / masculinity values as usual. So courageous, so strong.

And I think the game has been delayed in order to erase the strongest woke elements. But they won't be able to erase the whole story plot, that's for sure.

But it could be enough for most people buying this game.
