The Housers, who created the Grand Theft Auto games, are self-proclaimed socialists (though, I notice they haven’t given away any of their $100s of millions) and their games are filled with potshots at the right. Far Cry V is pretty much an assault on Christianity and traditional values (I say with some degree of ignorance, never having played it, but the left-wing Dallas Morning News even acknowledges it). The developers of Wolfenstein II certainly acted like their game was set in a “Trumpian” America.

Unfortunately, the triple-A titles have become as infected with left-wing ideology as Hollywood’s big movies.

I’ve played all the Far Cry games and found nothing in them that could be construed as anti-religion. Wolfenstein, as you know, fights against a Nazi occupation of the US. If dystopias depicted in video games are meant to represent Trump’s America, they do a poor job of making even a subtle connection. And one things vids are not, is subtle.

I think I’ve found the article you read. The writer is worried about the message it sends when the antagonist in the game is a religious extremist. If that’s true, and it probably is, the fact the extremist is the villain seems hardly left wing and weighs further against the thrust of the article atop this thread.
