In the South Park game the "difficulty" setting is a slider that changes your skin tone.
And Jew is a character class that starts rich, but everyone hates you.
It's a fake slider. Cartman just say it will affect every aspect of your life, just not the game one. Still funny af.
realistic american cops is woke now? get outta here
Hmm, it fits to the literal meaning, at least. If you are awake, you see the reality.
Check the sub you're in
Me when I dom (I'm blind)
More like realistic US cops.
Didn't they have those in gta3?
Racism is an Easter egg in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto IV, and Grand Theft Auto V.

Sounds like this will be the first for racial profiling by police, well if the denial of it happening in V is true.
racism is an easter egg. wow never thought I'd see those words together.
Sometimes, the cops will say "I only listen to white rappers"
I think that's very funny and poignant satire. It's racism of the most stupid and least consequential order.
And Vice City, and San Andreas.
Yeah I'm pretty sure this is nothing new for the series
I always thought they were more aggressive with Lamar vs Trevor out in Blaine County. At least it always felt that way when playing.
That's actually kinda awesome imo. GTA has always been a parody of real life; parodying police brutality against minorities might actually help people to stop and notice when it happens irl (assuming they handle it well).
That said, and I might be misremembering this, didn't postal 2 do this? You never saw it happen to you since the Postal Dude's white, but I swear I remember cops would occasionally randomly arrest people who weren't white. That's not to say that Postal 2 is """woke""", it's about as far from it as you can be; nor do I think that a lot of the jokes would land nowadays because some of the edgier ones were satirizing the politics of the time. However, I vaguely remember it having some really potent satire about society hiding under the crackhead edgy humor (the Postal Dude is literally a crackhead).
evil cops is redundant.
They could have just said COPS.
Realistic cops.
They could have just left out the word “evil” there.
Anyway, never mind that - when are they doing a modern take on GTA London?
Woke?
Like far too many people, OP appears to not understand the definition of woke.
bruh, this is a sub that deliberately parodies the viewpoints of the asshole contingent of gamers.
But even if it weren't a sub like that, the title makes it pretty obvious that OP is speaking ironically. Come on.
So many people don't understand what woke means that the meaning of woke changes
How's that onion taste?
'n Boke?
But the "corrupt/evil cop" archetype is a staple in the GTA franchise. Remember Tenpenny? Is this just rage bait for right-wingers again?
Who cares. Ill be doing so much crime, them pulling me over will be warranted.
They will have to catch me first.
This just in, GTA 6 will feature COPS.
Just like GTA IV and V have right? ( neither game has that programed dispite that people insist it's in those games)
Have cops pulled over NPC citizens in GTA before? Or is this hinting at a similar multi-character storyline like GTA5?
I think I've seen it before, but admittedly I think my actions lead to the interaction.
Ie: I was driving as one does hit a car which hit a police car leading to the civilian getting shot
Yeah I think I've seen stuff like that, but I don't think I've seen an actual pull-over. Like a car on the side of the road and the cop walking up to it and issuing a ticket. NPC interactions have definitely advanced over the generations of the game, this might actually be interesting to see.
You could always come across chases going on, there were nocshootouts happening. But I don’t know if you ever saw the race of the npc.
GTA going woke?
It boggles my mind that so many people don't realise the entire GTA franchise is a satire of American culture, by the Scottish development studio. It's always been liberal.
What does woke mean?
The recognition that there are entrenched systematic inequalities based on bigotry in American society, and the belief that action should be taken to break them down.
Source : Ron DeSantis's lawyers (not joking)
DeSantis' general counsel, Ryan Newman, responded that the term means "the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them."
But, yeah.
To be "woke" is to be aware that things are not all butterflies and puppy dogs, and to acknowledge that fact.
In other words, to be anti-woke is to willingly chose to remain ignorant about all the awful things that are happing in the world, such as racial inequality, for example.
It's a good thing to stay woke.
The real answer is just that it’s a blanket term used by conservatives to refer to liberal ideas. For example, saying that gay marriage should be legal makes you “woke”
Alternatively, and one adopted by the alt medicine movement, new age and fringe groups, is to be aware of chakras, crystals aliens (Pleiadians, the Grays, etc) and other conspiracies. Basically to buy into the quack. I used to lurk those communities on FB for years often back in the day and was incredibly confused when people meant the other type of woke when the term gained traction.
Smh, everyone knows cops famously love black people. We can't openly say the n word most of the time now, so we basically solved racism.
GTA worlds have always been about reflecting what goes on in the real world, either played straight or as a parody. Something like this is not off-brand for Rockstar North at all, and certainly isn't them going woke.
In the remaster trilogy they removed a southern flag from some inbred redneck because they said it's no longer culturally sensitive. I seriously doubt they would do something like this with the next game.
You say that as if going woke is a bad thing.
I don't think woke is a bad thing, I'm just saying this isn't even a change of course for Rockstar North. They have always done this kind of social commentary in GTA.
GTAV already has this for Franklin
Gta difficulty picker:
Evil cops Guys!!
Meanwhile San Andreas: 😎
I hope there will be LGBTQmc2+whateverShit so I can beat the shit out of these deviants.
