My pet peeve is people using obscure acronyms without defining them first.
DEI is Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Not sure on SBI
But unless the game is late-seasons Glee levels of pandering, I assume it having some people who are not straight white men won't feel that out of place.
Sweet baby inc is a company that offers services to game companies to make their games more diverse and inclusive. Their influence is really noticeable unfortunately.
I'm literally playing through Alan Wake 2 right now and there's been no forced diversity or tokenism whatsoever.
Are you just saying that because one of the main characters is a black woman?
No thats not the reason. It actually fits into the story. The main thing is this scene: https://youtube.com/shorts/hcOoREvW3lE?si=TZfV4uDugt_Ez8Yr And some other things. Don't get me wrong. I really like the story and how the game intertwines with control and the remedy multiverse. I just think the SBI influence is noticeable which is a shame in my honest opinion.
