Hey guys, if you can't stand an OUNCE of wokeness in your games... don't play this. A few small things that could be considered woke: - They mention a lesbian relationship at some point (I didn't even catch this) - Indiana Jones personality is nerfed - She has a short hair cut - Can be a bit of a girl boss - They don't sexualize Gina - Cultural appropriation is mentioned at some point When I was playing the game this was so tiny and not even noticeable that I still had a good time. But for you chad purists ... consider it woke!
@@andypantsgaming You’re free to have your own opinion of course, and to be fair, most people agree with you on this one. To me, I just personally don’t have any time for it, there’s other games I can play. Maybe I’ll play this when it’s like 5 bucks or something haha
@LiteFightr that hairstyle is common to the loony liberal leftists, but that said, I would agree that a mere haircut shouldn’t be anything damming in itself.
While I agree that the influence is minimal, I personally refuse to get boiled slowly rather than quickly. The people behind this showed us contempt in every possible way. Which means they do not get my time. Simple as that. If I see tangible proof they share my views, or at least give the impression they would be willing to listen to them (not agree, just listen), I would buy their games in a flash. I am not "just" boycotting. It's willful distancing from anyone with those political views that do not want any kind of dialogue with the other parties. This is my opinion of course, you do you.
Yea I’m checked out with all this new shit nothing will get me to come back unless the message is straight up fuck woke in the game ..was hoping rockstar would do this with GTa 6 but that looks like it’s over also
The only thing they hate is not making money, we should show them that making products like this is what we want and we should not become activists ourselves

@@RugsterClaps Except for, you know, the little talk the girl bosses have about the one chick’s lesbian relationship 🙄🤦♂️ People are just ignoring this shit like it doesn’t even exist, holy hell.
Remember Celeste? They made the character trans once millions of people had bought it. Any ounce of wokeness in AND AROUND a game should be enough for us to avoid it completely. Literally doesn't matter that it's not visibly woke, I know that the people behind it are woke. That's more than enough.
It’ll work. There are people who don’t think Baldur’s Gate isn't woke. Edit* i meant isn't woke, not is. The game is definitely influenced by the ideology.
@J.B.1982 not many are actually calling out that game, if anything a content creator I watch calls the game out regularly and trolls come and comment how good it and that it's one of the best games of all time just to be contrarians to him.
@HankBaxterYou are spot on. They will go and hide under the sheets and do it all again. We have to watch out every time. @J.B.1982 you are also spot on. BG3 is woke, it just does a bit smarter than other games. half these kids have no idea what woke actually is.
@noheffthing Yep. If developers wouldn't put woke crap in most of their games, this would never be a topic. Not saying this game is woke as I am only a couple of hours in, but we always have to be cautious of agenda driven narratives that are ruining games, movies, etc.
@@kwenk9230 whatever I say at this point won’t please you. Try watching the video if you want a definition. Watch several videos. I’m sure Andy thanks you for dropping by and commenting to help him get noticed more. Keep commenting. Try Urban Dictionary. You’re bald.
If it flowed with the character choice it would be ok like Lara Croft but when you FORCE me to play as a girl boss from a known IP with a male protagonist than screw you i wont buy it
I think that's what a lot of people don't understand is why some of us don't like that. It's not that the ladies are lesbians, it's because they were added to the story and made lesbians just because. A character's sexual orientation shouldn't be their defining characteristic that's put front and center.
Yeah thats exactly the reason for them to not put any extra woke stuff into it. They want you to fully focus and soak up the "germany bad" narrative. which one could argue is woke by itself.
Eh, I dunno man. Gina is a flat, frumpy, bug-eyed girlboss type that has to "save" Indiana multiple times and talks down to him like he's some sort of dumb amateur even though she's just a damn journalist. Lesbo cutscene in a game set in the 1930's... nah dude, it's woke, it's definitely more subtle than Concord or Veilguard or any of that slop but it's still woke to the core.
That's the danger now. They're doing what they did before, hiding while shoving the woke garbage in bits at you. It saddens me that some people are instantly fooled by this and think, "The game is perfect now!" When all you need to do is look a bit and the woke is there, like a shark swimming in the ocean pretending it's not still after you.
You said it's not woke, but it's not woke in the terms you've been handling these days. It's actually not flat out woke, but's it's low key woke. The whole Indiana's personality has been nerfed so he wouldn't impose his "macho man vibe" on the female second lead who constantly tries to one up him. That is not what we've watched on the 3 first movies.
Dude, we can clearly see that he's not over Marion in the first 15 minutes of the game -- of course he's not gonna go all fucky with some random chick. Have you ever been in a relationship? Like, do you know how normal people feelings work?
Is it woke? On it's face it's not throwing rainbow flags, trans scars, and other openly gay shit in your face. But is it woke... under the pretty facade of an okay game, absolutely. Honestly, the game looks exactly like the kind of lame and gay shit wokies make, they're not game developers, they're propagandists that make propaganda. For whatever reason they stepped back and made something that is, dare I say "acceptable" to current sensibilities, and that's my problem. They chose not to rock the boat at all, and to me, that smells like weakness.
It's less woke It is still woke I believe they are trying to dial the woke content back, they want it to be less obvious so we buy things but then slowly add more hoping we don't react as much I've heard many in Hollywood suggest this idea in the past Expect more games like this Better than we have become used to But really they are just a plant to trick us all
Gaming needs to get back to what it once was..even before the PS3/Xbox 360/Wii era. - Full games on release - No microtransaction bs - No live service bs - No game delays - No political agendas!! - Fun compelling heartfelt stories - Characters that truly resonate deep and are lovable - Life lessons - Writing that isn't cringe - Fun combat mechanics and gameplay - More detailed open worlds - Unlockables - Attractive waifus! What else?
Surprised you didn't notice that within the first two hours, Indy gets beat down by a big black guy and called "little man" then he goes straight to Europe and starts talking trash about the church with a modern bash the fash perspective. It definitely speaks to the director's perspective vs Steven Spielberg's perspective.
@@bdleo300 mean the same one companions he had in the movies that did the exact same thing and you guys getting mad in this one which is so dumb like it’s not woke. You guys are just talking out again and literally it’s considered to be one of the best video games best Indiana Jones games of all time right now, so why don’t you actually, literally play the game for yourself. It’s not woke. You guys are just complaining for everything.
@@primelordoftheuniverse7835I’m playing the game right now on the hardest difficulty you can execute random people with your pistol for fist fighting you but you can’t even punch an attack dog that’s ripping your throat out because that would be mean. this game sucks
It’s woke, they turned indie into the woman in the relationship. He’s fawning like a teenage girl instead of a man in the 1930’s. It’s like the personality version of uncanny valley, it just feels off for me.
Wow that's pretty good satire, made me laugh genuinely A+, i mean the way you worded this you sound like someone who knows nothing about Indiana Jones and then you tie it to the most out of whack crap that makes no sense a true nothing burger... I mean seriously teach me your ways.
The best scene when Indy is paralyzed from fear when he sees a little snake, then begs his stronK girlboss companion to save him lol... and muppets say it's "not woke" :D
Sorry Andy, but I think you're going through a normie moment with this game. Your woke-meter must be broken or something. That Gina character represents everything wrong with "modern entertainment" for me personally. Oh and the reason this Voss character has no redeemable qualities is because Woketards put Nazis way over Satan in their scale of pure evil. They will justify Satan's action (and they did) before considering giving nuance to a Nazi character.
Andy is a grifter and doesn't actually believe any of the anti-woke stuff he spouts. He flip-flops constantly and has a proven record of changing his opinions for more views.
But Gina is questioning Indy a few times. She says "I don't need to be saved" and Indy almost accepts it. For a game that is canon to the franchise, this is almost a dealbreaker. The game is still really good, but Indy is out of character here. Of course, the rebel leader is a lady, too. And the lesbian excavation leader is important, too. They share attention to historical details, the guns, lighters, cars etc. But so many strong female lead roles in the 30s? Indy has only women as allies here. They promised the return of known sidekicks, I was hoping for short round or a new character. But only woke women everywhere. No Ladies like Marion or Elsa.
Well spotted and true. This is the kind of thing we must be aware of and point out. It's still shoving wokeness at gamers, even if less than before. Tolerate it and the next game will have it all back even worse.
The game is bad. The combat never evolves, the AI is bad, and the pacing is horrendous. It's a bad game that is getting praise for no reason. Stalker 2 with all its problems, and it has a lot. Is a much better game. And that has some bs in it as well.
That game is still kinda woke. Gina is a girl boss and every german and italian soldier is either called nazi or fascist. And of course you get to meet this lesbian woman. But it could be worse I guess.
Already tired of all the wokeness that has creeped into video games. The last Borderlands and the last Far Cry were woke messes. I play games as an escape. I don't want to help two guys with their homosexual wedding (Borderlands 3) or drag queens and lesbian trans people (Far Cry 6). I just want a good game without wokeness being preached at me. So I'm glad to hear this game is not too woke.
So what about games with straight couples? Do you see the lgbtq whining and complaing about games being to Christan? And Normal like dam my nigga woke doesn’t equal bas
@ lesbians existed back then but they were so hated on but now we have grown to be a more kind and understanding society so they no longer have to hide the same with gay people I came out and was accepted in my high school and it felt so great I wish you could be a more kind human to
@@mrsniper1652 That's fine. You live your life how you want. No need for me to have to see that type behavior in the privacy of my home though. That's the point here.
I wrote comments on "gaming journos websites" that as a customer I want to KNOW if theres wokeness in it or not. I want a label "woke free" or something like that. I got banned. Of course.
@@Coconut-219 I know it's likely to come up, because Trump wants to investigate collusion between Government and media. I know every one expects companies like Twitter, Facebook, and Google to be on the list... but I suspect a load of video game companies are going to be on the lists. I'm almost willing to bet most companies in the US will be on the list of corruption/collusion with the Government. (eg: CIA backed company funding SBI)
We need a gradation system, something from Woke 1 (very light possibly accidental) to Woke 5 (Extreme, has trans, arch-fem, satanist stuff, etc). people need it defining which actuially isn't hard. If it's not good traditional stuff, and goes post modernism, it's basically going woke.
This video would be absolutely fine if you didn't have the meltdown in the comment section. You are starting to sound like a Bluesky user. If you enjoyed the game, fine. But many of us won't support a studio that hates us and keeps pushing all that nonsense for MoDerN AuDienCes. The box-checking in this game is insane: No pretty female characters, no straight female characters, all females are girl bosses, all villains must be white, toxic masculinity is evil, reparations, etc. Now, if you want to convince us that compared with Dustborn, Outlaws, Saints Row, Justice League, Forspoken, Life is Strange, Concord and Veilguard, this game is much less woke and actually based, that's okay, we might try it, for free, someday. But many of us are adults with limited time (and money), why would we waste our time playing something like this, when we could be playing epic badass games like Doom, Elden Ring, Sekiro, Wukong, etc.? Respect our side, and we will respect yours, there's no need to call 95% of your audience chad purists.
3:50 The only reason they didn't do that to this game is because the bad guy is supposed to be a Nazi, and it's to reinforce the narrative that Nazis wanted world domination and racial genocide. Neither of those are true, but the people pushing wokeness onto society are the same people who control the media, the news, and all major game studios and corporations through Blackrock and Vangaurd. These people who control just about all major sources of information other than social media (which they heavily censor), had complete control over what society knew for nearly 80 years regarding our government, foreign relations, wars we were involved in, etc. We all know ABC, CBS and NBC lied about Covid, lied about 9/11, lied about the USS Liberty, lied about the war on terror, lied about our elections, lied about almost everything we were taught today, exeeeeeeeeept World War 2 and everything about it. No they 100% were honest about that and if you say otherwise you lose your job, your deplatformed, censored, put on a watchlist, and you can say goodbye to all future careers :)
The soviets managed to come up with "official" papers on Germany eventually wiping out 99% of humanity and leaving only Germans. It mirrored the juice plans to do the same to non-juice. No one questions this. It wasn't Aktion T4.
except if you're Ukrainian of course, then there's no problem with being a nazi, having actual nazi symbols and having streets named after fascist/nazi figures, media as usual
watched Dunkeys video on it, and i noticed a couple potential wokey things: all of the enemies on the audio subtitles were just named 'Fascists' (regardless if its a high ranked appearing military guy, or a random dude walking around). the museum section had different countries on display, and they took the time to put a palestine one
Right well, first of all, the guys walking around Vatican City are Mussolini's Blackshirts. Fascists all, by any metric. Secondly, that is the flag of Iraq, not Palestine, with the design being accurate for the year the game is set (1937). Anyone who asks if a game is "woke" is just a fucking idiot tbh. Pure, undiluted brainrot.
@@chillguydave925 Except it is woke, and it's not a good game. Boring, bad combat, cringe story, cartoonish characters, broken ai, weak voice acting, ridicuIous action scenes (Shanghai) and tons of girlboss characters saving beta Indy again and again. But I guess most people would just adore any mediocre game at this point. and Bethesda paid a lot of shiIIs this time...
Saying we shouldn't buy Indiana Jones, even though it's good, is like saying people shouldn't buy anything they make. How does this help or change anything?
At this rate, but the wokes and the anti-wokes just want to watch the whole world burn. The wokes want to spite the anti-wokes by turning their favourite franchises into propagandas despite the fact that they're burning money for it, while the anti-wokes will happily destroy a well-made movie or game in the hope that they can give a middle finger to the wokes. This is bad for normal people like us who simply want a good movie or game...
@@andypantsgaming At least us wokies can actually enjoy modern media without throwing a fit when a black woman shows up in our video games and movies like so many of these snowflakes do
"Voss is evil! And muh bad guys from ww2 were evil! Based!" I would love it if this guy critiquing woke all the time and claiming to be based would dare look up the censored truth of ww2. Maybye he gets all his history knowledge from Spielberg propaganda films.
Isn’t it amazing that when you read a history book in school and they talk about wars, the good guys won every single time? Like every time it was totally just good guys winning. Almost like a Disney movie with black-and-white good and evil. “Good guys “
@@barkonius3264 Yeah thats a perspective thing usually. If you asked Europeans who the "good guys" were in the Indo-China War they wouldn't really have an opinion on it. but if you asked the Chinese or the Indonesians you'd get completely different results
It's not even good, very overhyped for no reason (Bethesda marketing). Boring, broken ai, cringe voice acting, mickey mouse story and characters... and very woke.
Yeah, like, what is this videomaker even talking about? He's surprised the villain is evil? Of course he is, there are two categories of people who are allowed to be evil, and in fact are always and only presented as evil: germans and russians. No matter the time period.
I’ve also already finished it and it’s one of my top games since Elden ring. Funny how I didn’t think once if it was woke or not because i don’t think that way
Sounds like they are trying to make a game that isn’t woke. I disagree with Andy’s idea that we should continue to boycott Microsoft when they make a non woke game, we should give Microsoft some data points that show them how non-woke games are profitable. We are a capitalist nation so we vote with our dollar, businesses are capitalist and want those dollars but use various data points to determine that their advisers and consultants are lying to them and the number of leftist outrage posts on Reddit and Blue Sky are indicative manpon customers but not at all indicators of console video game customers.
@@nemoexnuqual3643 true about voting with your dollar, but this game aint it. WHEN you see a none woke game, go for it. but as long as there are fragments still in, dodge
If they cut out ALL the wokeness I’d buy it but until then absolutely not. I’ll just go back and play the long list of amazing non-woke older games. Like the other comments say why would I support a company of people who hate me 🤷🏻♀️
@@bdleo300did you play the game? There was an Egyptian girl IN Egypt. An Asian girl, in Asia. How's that diverse? Did you want the locals to be white? And Indy was the one saving the girl over and over.
Some is telling the truth. That's why most of the Germans in Hitler regime are still loyal to their death. The anti nazi program afther the war is to fool the german generation that are born after the Event rather than the one who lived through it.
@MartinOReilly-mb4um Of Course The Developers Are All Hired By On DEI Merits Are Still Present In All The Western Studios. Probably They Are Gonna Put Woke Stuff Through The Updates
I'm 10 hours into the game and i loved every bit, exploring the Vatican and founding ancient christian treasures and the theology stuff was so nice. But i came here to watch your opinion because when i arrived at egypt and talked to the woman boss, Gina said something like "you know she still loves you right?", i hope there is no gay sexual stuff more deep into the game....
The problem here is that woke is a spectrum and Andy is presenting it as black and white. The game is a bit woke There should a "woke meter" rating from 1 to 10. From reading the comments, the game is more woke than Andy says. It seems to be at around a 5 in the woke scale.
Agreed even a hint of it is enough for me to just give up on a story game. I got EA Sports PGA Tour last week and you can chose pronouns they/them which is fucking stupid but I just ignore it.. I cant ignore an agenda in a story based game now and ive heard there's 1 or 2 parts in it
It's very woke. Perhaps not extreme like Dragon Age Vailguard, but tons of woke elements. Yet so mane of these 'anti-woke' creators don't dare to criticize the game because it's popular (and it's not even that great, just mid)
to those whinning about her girl bossing... lets not forget that raiders of the lost ark literally introduces Mariaon ravenwood by having her drink a 300pound man under the table in a bar she owns in nepal.... Willie scott in the temple of doom berates Indy threw most of the movie. There have always been girl bosses in movies and games. it just used to be that it was done in away that is cute or fun and leaves room for Indy to be the manly hero.
I heard it had lesbian garbage in it so Indy has no love interest. I love Indy movies, but this kind of thing completely is out of place. I didn't like what I've been hearing. Anyway, I won't buy it until it's super cheap or somehow free.
The reason why anime is more popular than movies and shows that come out in the U.S is because there is masculinity and femininity and mix it a good amount. For example iron blooded orphans is about kids who were slaves made a company. You can relate to the main characters through the story and how it ends. Most Gundam shows are this way and follows war and the brutality of it.
There are definitely some subtle woke notes to take away. Historically in games, enemies would have a title like "soldier" "german soldier" italian soldier" etc. This one, everyone who speaks is a Nazi or a Fascist... there are a couple corny comments made here and there about dumb Nazis and fascists, so they did still slip it in a bit. Additionally, there is an important character that they make it very clear that she is a lesbian. Huge deal? Nah, I mean sure gay folks have always been around... but when you interact on that level with like 6 people, and one turns out to be gay in 1936 or so... it definitely feels like it was dropped in to gain a few woke points. Overall though, not a bad game, I've been enjoying it overall. One more note though, is that I DO agree that there is reason to always speculate the other side's perspective. Arguably there is no point when portraying fantasy like in the LOTR universe where Orcs are inherently evil. That said, many Germans did not know anything of the atrocities that were committed by members of the SS. If you really dig into WWII history with an open mind, and consider some of the German people's plight... it becomes much easier to understand how virtually an entire nation (and numerous other nations) backed Hitler and his regime.
A “is it woke” game review series would be amazing for a lot of ppl like me who want to stay clear away from those types of games and also I think the 💩 talking about it would be entertaining
Love the game but the inclusion of Gina’s sister and Nawal being together annoyed the hell out of me. Like why must every game/movie/ show nowadays have undesirables
Yes, too many people seem to think you can switch woke `on and off`. We need a gradation system because woke is very good at infiltrating in small amounts which it did for at least a decade. We need something defines it from `Woke 1` - Very light and possibly accidental woke, to `Woke 5` = Off the wall trans, arch-fem, evil garbage.
Great 10 mins video but, question, why didn't you mention the woke topics in game? didn't you have enough time to put it in? didn't you play it enough?
Honestly, playing the game as we speak. It’s very refreshing to hear that it won’t be another Trash Woke Liberal game like the new Dragon Born, and other such games (especially that it will not be taking after the newer movie) I’ve always loved the Indiana Jones series, so I am very refreshed. The gameplay is good, the characters make sense, the plot isn’t bullshit, it’s just Jones, Jones, Jones. The only problem I have for the game would perhaps be Gina’s haircut. If it were styled in a classic Italian short hair style, I’d get behind it, but it isn’t. It’s just messy, and kinda odd looking, like a sideways emo-mop. Aside from that, I couldn’t care less about her somewhat girl boss attitude. In the entire series, Jones meets many “girl boss” characters, them being the love interests, as always. They weren’t girl boss in a woke “shove it down your throat and call me daddy,” style, but they were pretty cool, and represented women as independent and strong but not in a ‘better than men’ style. Gave ‘em oomf.
I'm not sure if this is considered "woke," but the one blonde Nazi character is portrayed in such an exaggerated way that it almost feels like a caricature. It seems like we’re constantly reminded to hate the Nazis so much, to not ask why HItler himself would send someone menthaly so unstable for such an important mission. Also in the movies, the Nazis weren’t portrayed that way. They were simply the bad guys, and Indy even had a brief relation with a female "Nazi" professor.
@@normietwiceremoved That's true, but for me there was still something mysterious and unexplained about him, but the more recent depictions often seem a bit too exaggerated, or at least for me.
I thought it was very disparaging to Catholicism as that is what Christianity is, having some form of the Nephilim living under the Vatican while saying Saint Peter is the patron saint of fallen angels is mocking. Also the Vatican was never overrun by fascists and The Holy Father was not missing due to illness or otherwise. It's not the first game that has done this Assassin's Creed has been doing it for decades, while everyone playing AC thinks they're playing the good guy they're actually playing the antagonist.

You get paid for work. So no
Resisting blatant brainwashing could be considered work.
This is the phase in which they go back to clever, subtle propaganda. The machine is learning.

The game suddenly became woke when the lesbians were awkwardly thrust in from out of the blue for no reason.
I think that's what a lot of people don't understand is why some of us don't like that. It's not that the ladies are lesbians, it's because they were added to the story and made lesbians just because. A character's sexual orientation shouldn't be their defining characteristic that's put front and center.
The narrative they went to reinforce this time was the old reliable "Germany bad"
Yeah thats exactly the reason for them to not put any extra woke stuff into it. They want you to fully focus and soak up the "germany bad" narrative. which one could argue is woke by itself.
Woke Germany is bad old Germany was prime
I'm not going to lie every time I turn around there's something about fascist mentioned😅
Racist Germans as the bad guys is woke in a throw back way
Germany bad, also modern audiences good. EVERY.SINGLE.TIME.
Eh, I dunno man. Gina is a flat, frumpy, bug-eyed girlboss type that has to "save" Indiana multiple times and talks down to him like he's some sort of dumb amateur even though she's just a damn journalist. Lesbo cutscene in a game set in the 1930's... nah dude, it's woke, it's definitely more subtle than Concord or Veilguard or any of that slop but it's still woke to the core.
Of course it is lol
Yes i agree it's slightly woke but at least done well.
That's the danger now. They're doing what they did before, hiding while shoving the woke garbage in bits at you. It saddens me that some people are instantly fooled by this and think, "The game is perfect now!" When all you need to do is look a bit and the woke is there, like a shark swimming in the ocean pretending it's not still after you.

You said it's not woke, but it's not woke in the terms you've been handling these days. It's actually not flat out woke, but's it's low key woke. The whole Indiana's personality has been nerfed so he wouldn't impose his "macho man vibe" on the female second lead who constantly tries to one up him. That is not what we've watched on the 3 first movies.
woke lite
Dude, we can clearly see that he's not over Marion in the first 15 minutes of the game -- of course he's not gonna go all fucky with some random chick. Have you ever been in a relationship? Like, do you know how normal people feelings work?
Is it woke? On it's face it's not throwing rainbow flags, trans scars, and other openly gay shit in your face.
But is it woke... under the pretty facade of an okay game, absolutely. Honestly, the game looks exactly like the kind of lame and gay shit wokies make, they're not game developers, they're propagandists that make propaganda. For whatever reason they stepped back and made something that is, dare I say "acceptable" to current sensibilities, and that's my problem. They chose not to rock the boat at all, and to me, that smells like weakness.
It's woke in terms of feminism, which abounds in the game

Surprised you didn't notice that within the first two hours, Indy gets beat down by a big black guy and called "little man" then he goes straight to Europe and starts talking trash about the church with a modern bash the fash perspective. It definitely speaks to the director's perspective vs Steven Spielberg's perspective.
Indy can't even open random doors without begging his stronK girlboss companion for help. She (and other girl bosses) save him 10 times at least.

Sorry Andy, but I think you're going through a normie moment with this game. Your woke-meter must be broken or something. That Gina character represents everything wrong with "modern entertainment" for me personally. Oh and the reason this Voss character has no redeemable qualities is because Woketards put Nazis way over Satan in their scale of pure evil. They will justify Satan's action (and they did) before considering giving nuance to a Nazi character.
its common ground were most meet hating Nazis but dare u make something about communism they probably never will
Bell rung. ''Nazi'' just means conservative white male. And that is certainly worse than satan in their mind
The game is Ultra Woke. Yet bunch of these 'anti-woke' UA-camrs now claim it's not??? Bethesda bribes? Or just bandwagoning.
Both are evil
Satan is fictional. Nazis weren't.
Andy promoting censorship for sensitivity reasons and promoting feminism is till woke af.
Andy is a grifter and doesn't actually believe any of the anti-woke stuff he spouts. He flip-flops constantly and has a proven record of changing his opinions for more views.
But Gina is questioning Indy a few times. She says "I don't need to be saved" and Indy almost accepts it.
For a game that is canon to the franchise, this is almost a dealbreaker. The game is still really good, but Indy is out of character here. Of course, the rebel leader is a lady, too. And the lesbian excavation leader is important, too.
They share attention to historical details, the guns, lighters, cars etc. But so many strong female lead roles in the 30s? Indy has only women as allies here. They promised the return of known sidekicks, I was hoping for short round or a new character. But only woke women everywhere. No Ladies like Marion or Elsa.
Well spotted and true. This is the kind of thing we must be aware of and point out. It's still shoving wokeness at gamers, even if less than before. Tolerate it and the next game will have it all back even worse.

This video would be absolutely fine if you didn't have the meltdown in the comment section. You are starting to sound like a Bluesky user. If you enjoyed the game, fine. But many of us won't support a studio that hates us and keeps pushing all that nonsense for MoDerN AuDienCes. The box-checking in this game is insane: No pretty female characters, no straight female characters, all females are girl bosses, all villains must be white, toxic masculinity is evil, reparations, etc. Now, if you want to convince us that compared with Dustborn, Outlaws, Saints Row, Justice League, Forspoken, Life is Strange, Concord and Veilguard, this game is much less woke and actually based, that's okay, we might try it, for free, someday. But many of us are adults with limited time (and money), why would we waste our time playing something like this, when we could be playing epic badass games like Doom, Elden Ring, Sekiro, Wukong, etc.?

3:50 The only reason they didn't do that to this game is because the bad guy is supposed to be a Nazi, and it's to reinforce the narrative that Nazis wanted world domination and racial genocide. Neither of those are true, but the people pushing wokeness onto society are the same people who control the media, the news, and all major game studios and corporations through Blackrock and Vangaurd.
These people who control just about all major sources of information other than social media (which they heavily censor), had complete control over what society knew for nearly 80 years regarding our government, foreign relations, wars we were involved in, etc. We all know ABC, CBS and NBC lied about Covid, lied about 9/11, lied about the USS Liberty, lied about the war on terror, lied about our elections, lied about almost everything we were taught today, exeeeeeeeeept World War 2 and everything about it.

Why would Palestine be on a display for countries?
Right well, first of all, the guys walking around Vatican City are Mussolini's Blackshirts. Fascists all, by any metric.
Secondly, that is the flag of Iraq, not Palestine, with the design being accurate for the year the game is set (1937).

Doesn’t make it bad? It was a great game after all
@mrsniper1652 far from great but it's alright. I liked the puzzles.
I heard it had lesbian garbage in it so Indy has no love interest. I love Indy movies, but this kind of thing completely is out of place. I didn't like what I've been hearing. Anyway, I won't buy it until it's super cheap or somehow free.
Indy does have a love interest, don’t believe everything you hear from anti wokes
THERE IS HOPE, DON'T GIVE UP MY PEOPLE.
The reason why anime is more popular than movies and shows that come out in the U.S is because there is masculinity and femininity and mix it a good amount. For example iron blooded orphans is about kids who were slaves made a company. You can relate to the main characters through the story and how it ends. Most Gundam shows are this way and follows war and the brutality of it.
There are definitely some subtle woke notes to take away. Historically in games, enemies would have a title like "soldier" "german soldier" italian soldier" etc. This one, everyone who speaks is a Nazi or a Fascist... there are a couple corny comments made here and there about dumb Nazis and fascists, so they did still slip it in a bit. Additionally, there is an important character that they make it very clear that she is a lesbian. Huge deal? Nah, I mean sure gay folks have always been around... but when you interact on that level with like 6 people, and one turns out to be gay in 1936 or so... it definitely feels like it was dropped in to gain a few woke points.
Overall though, not a bad game, I've been enjoying it overall. One more note though, is that I DO agree that there is reason to always speculate the other side's perspective. Arguably there is no point when portraying fantasy like in the LOTR universe where Orcs are inherently evil. That said, many Germans did not know anything of the atrocities that were committed by members of the SS. If you really dig into WWII history with an open mind, and consider some of the German people's plight... it becomes much easier to understand how virtually an entire nation (and numerous other nations) backed Hitler and his regime.
I feel like you jumped the gun on this one bro
On Bethesda payroll
Microsoft is incapable of making anything that isn't garbage now.
literally a huge success
LOL

@@bradleighb with what? knowing that is in top 5 worldwide while you cope even harder?OK
A “is it woke” game review series would be amazing for a lot of ppl like me who want to stay clear away from those types of games and also I think the 💩 talking about it would be entertaining
Love the game but the inclusion of Gina’s sister and Nawal being together annoyed the hell out of me. Like why must every game/movie/ show nowadays have undesirables
Very commendable of you Andy Giving credits where the credits due, and at the same time still standing up to your principles
"ThE NaWtZeEs WeRe EvIL". Much to learn, you have.

I can't wait to hear the apologist bullshit and sloganeering you'll spew.

This guy knows😎
This is a solid “buy on sale in 2 years game” to me, that is.
There need to be a vote based public rating system for wokeness
Yes, too many people seem to think you can switch woke `on and off`. We need a gradation system because woke is very good at infiltrating in small amounts which it did for at least a decade. We need something defines it from `Woke 1` - Very light and possibly accidental woke, to `Woke 5` = Off the wall trans, arch-fem, evil garbage.
Great 10 mins video but, question, why didn't you mention the woke topics in game? didn't you have enough time to put it in? didn't you play it enough?
Honestly, playing the game as we speak.
It’s very refreshing to hear that it won’t be another Trash Woke Liberal game like the new Dragon Born, and other such games (especially that it will not be taking after the newer movie)
I’ve always loved the Indiana Jones series, so I am very refreshed.
The gameplay is good, the characters make sense, the plot isn’t bullshit, it’s just Jones, Jones, Jones.
The only problem I have for the game would perhaps be Gina’s haircut. If it were styled in a classic Italian short hair style, I’d get behind it, but it isn’t. It’s just messy, and kinda odd looking, like a sideways emo-mop. Aside from that, I couldn’t care less about her somewhat girl boss attitude. In the entire series, Jones meets many “girl boss” characters, them being the love interests, as always. They weren’t girl boss in a woke “shove it down your throat and call me daddy,” style, but they were pretty cool, and represented women as independent and strong but not in a ‘better than men’ style. Gave ‘em oomf.
Woke doesn’t make games bad bad game design and dialogue makes games bad you can have super woke dialogue and make it good lmao
@@mrsniper1652 Hence why I said “Trash Woke-“ in my post.
I don't even buy the Game pass. Never give in and never back down.
BUY IT
That part lol
Lmao, have fun missing out on all the good games there.
i don't know who's the bigger grifter andypants or grummz.
I think that's what they intended. Feels like we are playing Indy in a movie, which is a good thing.
Incredibly siIIy movie, the story and cutscenes are uber-cringe.
Buying games based on wokeness is on another level of unhinged. Bravo 👏👏
yeah wanting games to be more political is definitely the saner choice
I'm not sure if this is considered "woke," but the one blonde Nazi character is portrayed in such an exaggerated way that it almost feels like a caricature. It seems like we’re constantly reminded to hate the Nazis so much, to not ask why HItler himself would send someone menthaly so unstable for such an important mission. Also in the movies, the Nazis weren’t portrayed that way. They were simply the bad guys, and Indy even had a brief relation with a female "Nazi" professor.
I think it was meant to be a caricature very intentionally. Toht in Raiders wasn't exactly a 'subtle' depiction of a Nazi.
@@normietwiceremoved That's true, but for me there was still something mysterious and unexplained about him, but the more recent depictions often seem a bit too exaggerated, or at least for me.
Kept the woke to a minimum that's a good start, hope they don't use this money to make more slop
Lmao if a game is good and woke you back peddle and say it’s not that woke but if a game is bad and woke you just complain and whine
I would love if you did more of these "Did _______ game go woke?" would keep me having to refund games on Steam lol plus more ideas for videos.
I thought it was very disparaging to Catholicism as that is what Christianity is, having some form of the Nephilim living under the Vatican while saying Saint Peter is the patron saint of fallen angels is mocking. Also the Vatican was never overrun by fascists and The Holy Father was not missing due to illness or otherwise. It's not the first game that has done this Assassin's Creed has been doing it for decades, while everyone playing AC thinks they're playing the good guy they're actually playing the antagonist.
In this game Thailand in 1937. is overrun by Italians and Germans lol
Wow, it's almost like you are playing a work of fiction 😮
@@zander4890 I wasn't playing it, I was watching it being played. If you are okay with it good for you. Do you really need childish emojis to comment?
@@MaryMDoyle "I wasn't playing, I was watching" wow, that makes all the difference. And I'm the childish one for using an emoji? Lmao. You are the one lacking basic media literacy skills and correcting useless information for the discussion.
@@zander4890 I was watching an early access playthrough of the game if you can not comprehend that then again that's on you. You obviously like the game that's your prerogative, I don't like the game and that's mine. Yes emoji's are childish. I left a comment that you didn't like and you left a smart arse reply; we had no discussion.
My favorite thing about this channel is that it never has ads lol
Tod Howard is an absolute fan of Indiana Jones, and this is his dream project.
So yeah i can imagine that it's not fully woke.
define "woke"
Greetings normal, biologically-informed people, we meet again.
I refuse to play this game as I don't like killing the good guys.
bruh
Based
@@andypantsgaming Just be aware, Andy, the Woke Left like to pose as the Right and trolling this stuff. It's all part of the infiltration strategy they use.
Seek help 😂
@@BFG100 ok jew
It's still woke/leftist "anti nazi" garbage, with dated graphics and boring gameplay aka walking simulator
The noses strike again
Indiana Jones has always been anti nazi, nutjob.
To be fair, the Nazis were fucking evil monsters.
Dated graphics.. 😂 walking simulator... 🤣🤣🤣 1st person games like prey and resident evil 7 and Riddick kick ass! This game is 🔥 PURE COPE
Imagine having a problem with being against nazis
Yes it already is, they made for "Modern Audiences"
Also it similar happen to the Hogwarts Legacy
A fair review, something you won't get from a lot of channels. While I am not religious and don't agree with everything Andy says, I will say he's got his head on straight about how games should be.
