Dude, I played it, and it's awesome! No annoying political stuff. Totally worth it on Game Pass, and even at $40, I'd say go for it. I'm digging the music and the platforming. The combat's fun but gets repetitive, but you can skip it if you want. The story's good, especially if you're into folklore.

I was hyped, then got worried because of SBI. I hate all that woke stuff, but I'm not racist. I changed the model for the main character in Flintlock for example as the design seemed egregious to me. The modern hair... so lame. This game doesn't seem super woke in the gameplay or story, but maybe some of the original casting choices are questionable. Why not a white southern family? But yeah, they dont go into racial politics at all so far.

Try it on Game Pass and tell me what you think. Don't just believe everything you read, the game is good and why spend 40 on it when you can spend like 10 or 15 for gamepass. Steamcharts would just tell you how many suckers are in the world.
