Elon Musk is Frustrated With DEI Woke Bullsh*t That’s Ruining Video Games Including Sony’s $400 Million Disaster Concord
Elon Musk has had enough developers trying to force their DEI-woke ideologies into games instead of focusing on improving the gameplay experience.
Musk believes that this one particular reason is responsible for some of the recent big-budget failures in the gaming industry, including Sony’s $400 million disaster Concord.
Diversity, Equity, And Inclusion Have Proved To Be Enemies of the Games
According to Musk, the impact of DEI philosophies on video games is detrimental to artistic expression. He believes that incorporating forced-woke ideologies ruins the gameplay experience by making it feel more like a lecture than a video game.
He believes this is what kills art. The biggest example of this is Sony’s latest failure, Concord, which too was criticized for focusing more on forced wake elements rather than improving the gameplay. The game’s failure is living proof that people want great gameplay and storytelling experiences above anything else.
A game should be narratively and technically sound first to think about doing anything else. Incorporating inclusive elements just for the sake of it to increase the scope of its audience has never worked in any game’s favor.

They’re not just targeting a non-existent audience, they believe that they have the power to create that audience through controlling media (and the hypodermic needle model of media influence).
They expect us to just consume whatever slop they produce and absorb “the message”…

Focusing on DEI initiatives harms the creative and artistic integrity of games by prioritizing political messaging over quality gameplay and immersive storytelling. The initial focus should always be on making the gameplay and story better; the rest of everything comes after that.
The Focus Should Always Be On Improving The Gameplay Over Incorporating Political Messaging
This is a more traditional way of looking at video games, but it is also the one that the majority of the community is in favor of. Musk is not the only one who believes that video games should be left as they are.
Musk is all praise for Japanese developers, especially Hidetaka Miyazaki and his latest game, Elden Ring. He believes that this game represents what the core gaming community craves: a good gameplay experience topped with immersive storytelling.
Musk might soon start a video game studio that makes use of artificial intelligence to enhance creativity and push the boundaries of video game development while staying clear of DEI-driven disruptions. What do you think about it? Let us know in the comments below.
