Two new <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/video-games" target="_blank" rel="noopener">video games</a> that push the propaganda of the Left, like DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion), have turned out to be total flops, with a non-woke one booming.
The first-person online shooter Concord &#8212; developed by Firewalk studios and published by Sony &#8212; came out on August 23 and Sony announced on Tuesday that it was shutting down the game on September 6 and promising that sold copies would be refunded, <a href="https://www.ign.com/articles/playstation-shooter-concord-going-offline-this-week">IGN</a> reported.
It was released only on PS5 and Windows and in a very short amount of time, gamers proved they didn’t want to play the game with weirdly-drawn <a href="https://x.com/TheBugleDaily1/status/1830721273753743699">DEI characters</a> who had their pronouns proudly flagged in the corner, as The <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2024/09/02/politics-free-black-myth-sells-10-million-in-three-days-as-dei-games-dustborn-and-concord-flop/">Federalist</a> reported.

On the day Concord launched, it had a total of 697 concurrent players worldwide. To put those numbers into perspective, largely-panned gaming disappointment Rocksteady’s “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League” was considered a bomb when it debuted to a comparatively large <a href="https://steamdb.info/app/315210/charts/">13,000</a> players. The game was slammed for its woke elements like a lesbian race-swapped version of Batman nemesis <a href="https://boundingintocomics.com/2024/07/18/rocksteady-confirms-next-suicide-squad-kill-the-justice-league-dlc-character-mrs-freeze-is-a-lesbian/">Mister Freeze</a>, the outlet noted.
Playstation Director Ryan Ellis said of Concord’s failure that &#8220;while many qualities of the experience resonated with players, we also recognize that other aspects of the game and our initial launch didn’t land the way we’d intended.&#8221;

Days earlier, the adventure game Dustborn &#8212; developed by Red Thread Games and published by Quantic Dream &#8212; was released with gamers completely uninterested in the political and leftist setting and characters of the game.
Forbes described it <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/mattgardner1/2024/08/22/dustborn-review-love-it-or-hate-it-it-dares-to-be-different/">as</a> “among the most unrepentantly liberal and left-leaning games out there.”  The Federalist and others <a href="https://x.com/GiveMeBanHammer/status/1830122758313034085">noted</a> the characters in the game have the ability to “cancel and bully opponents, get triggered, and call people racists.&#8221;
&#8220;Dustborn emphasizes the power of words and the importance of building an inclusive society where everyone belongs,” one person wrote. “Is that so PC Gamer? Me looking at the game in any detail, it seems to indicate that its doing everything in its power creating the complete OPPOSITE in every way.”
In response to the criticism, <a href="https://x.com/RedThreadGames/status/1829503995192222020">Red Thread Games</a> developers said that from the start, they wanted to create a world where “everyone can feel safe,” calling the complaints a “tidal wave of hate and abuse.”
The game debuted with an all-time peak of just <a href="https://steamdb.info/app/721180/charts/">83 players</a>, while current player totals hover around the mid-20s, The Federalist noted.
And while several reports have noted the problem with the game is all the leftist propaganda, others have said the game’s just bad. One critic <a href="https://x.com/LifuLifuVT/status/1831003860963373181">called</a> out “the writing” and said the “one-dimensional” characters with a “storyline with absolutely zero depth” and an “unlikeable main character with no trace of human empathy” is just “bad, plain and simple.”
Meanwhile, the Chinese developed “Black Myth: Wukong,” which was released on August 19, is exploding, selling <a href="https://www.ign.com/articles/black-myth-wukong-sells-an-incredible-10-million-copies-in-just-3-days">10 million copies</a> in only three days, the outlet noted.
&#8220;Black Myth&#8221; &#8212; a game based on the ancient Chinese classic &#8220;Journey to the West&#8221; &#8212; contains no politics and diversity propaganda.
Forbes reported that creators who requested a review copy of the game were asked not to <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2024/08/18/the-black-myth-wukong-no-feminist-propaganda-no-covid-19-discussion-email-is-real/">include</a> things like &#8220;politics, violence, nudity, feminist propaganda, fetishization and other content that instigates negative discourse.&#8221;
