Wolfenstein: youngblood apparently has an sjw/progessive narrative?

Okay firstly, great choice using carpenter brut for the trailer song, hope he makes it onto the final soundtrack. Also like the idea of the buddy-pass.
On to the topic, I've seen alot of people throwing around the standard 'sjws ruing my game' and similar sentiments around youngblood but i struggle to see it myself. Is it because the main characters are chicks? is it because there's a black chick? I dont know. Nothing I've seen has come off as sjw/progessive nonsense, or am i just missing something?

First and foremost...

Agreed. Carpenter Brut is, désolé pour ma vulgarité, the fucking shit. Now, as for the actual subject at hand...

Is it because the main characters are chicks? is it because there's a black chick?

...Most likely.

Now, see, only half a dozen years ago, I wouldn't have batted an eyelid at anything in that trailer; and granted, it may very well be the case that the protagonists being two women, one of them black, was simply the result of the developers following their own artistic vision.

Given the last 5 or so years, though? Yeah, that very same trailer is sending red flags all over the place for me, and would probably be a huge factor in my skipping the game altogether if, in fairness, I'd had any interest in it to begin with.

That's SOCJUS for you - making people who once didn't give a shit care, in spite of themselves, about genitals and melanin. Because equality, or something.

Well said and aptly put.
