I literally see comments in steam discussions about random games with the title "is this game woke?"

Fucking propaganda man... It's so annoying.

Tell me you're a brainwashed Reich wing media consumer without telling me you're a brainwashed Reich wing media consumer. I just roll my eyes and move on.

Also, the franchise has always been quite woke for its era. Why would they stop now?

Yup, I remember the D20 modern rulebook alternated using "he/him" and "she/her" throughout the text. One class section would use "he/him" to describe the archetypical character for that class, and the next would use "she/her".

I remember it left an impression on me as a teenage boy.
