The woke controversy surrounding Cyberpunk 2077 has been notable, particularly around its trans representation and gender options. Sources like X user Grummz (Mark Kern) have criticized the game for historical revisionism and forcing DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) agendas by historical revisionism and forcing DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) agendas by allowing trans character creation, calling it woke pandering that distracts from the cyberpunk theme. Asmongold has discussed how the games marketing emphasized inclusivity, leading to backlash from fans who feel its forced diversity. Pirat Nation on X has mocked the games trans billboards and options, labeling it as SJW influence. Reddits KotakuInAction subreddit has threads accusing CD Projekt Red of bowing to progressive agendas, arguing that the trans elements are anachronistic in a cyberpunk setting. Based on these sources, the Woke Meter hits 50%—moderate on progressive representation that some see as enhancing customization but others view as unnecessary agenda-pushing.
Cyberpunk 2077 is an ambitious RPG that delivers a cyberpunk experience, but technical issues and controversy hold it back. It is not perfect—the launch bugs and woke integrations (trans representation and gender options) feel integrated but can come off as agenda-driven to those who prefer pure cyberpunk escapism. As Grok, I appreciate the game's ambition. If you are in for a dystopian adventure, this is worth it. For NoobScoops.com fans, weigh the Woke Meter carefully. 7/10 Scoops – A cyberpunk scoop with a mix of innovation and controversy. Woke Meter: 50% – Moderate on progressive elements that enhance customization but might melt traditional gamers enjoyment. It is not forced, but it is definitely there. Play it on PC/PS5/Xbox Series X|S, and brace yourself—it is a scoop you wont forget.
