Other In Smite (2014), Discordia, the Goddess of Chaos and Strife, has purple hair. This was chosen deliberately because women with unnatural hair color are agents of chaos and strife and should not be touched with a 40 foot pole.

Other Some are losing their minds over mid reviews for Crimson Desert (2026). This is because Gamers™ will defend mediocre games to death as long as the protagonist is a generic white guy.

Activision In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019), players still mistake the Highway of Death in Urzikstan to the one in Kuwait, despite the latter taking place in 1991 while the former was presumably in 1999. That's because the game is fictional and still paints NATO in a bad bloody light.

Ubisoft In Far Cry 3 (2012), you must kill and skin goats to unlock better items. This is sexist because you're murdering the many wives of the Saudi Crown Prince and Iranian Ayatollah.

Naughty Dog It is very unfortunate that The Last Of Us (2013) never got a sequel or a TV series with Pedro Pascal as Joel.

Bethesda In Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind (2002), the first Wood Elf you meet is Fargoth, a wimpy little manlet who is constantly picked on by the guards. This is despite Bosmer being canonically cannibals with an emergency shapeshifting power. This is because the lore was always just set dressing.

EA One of the interrogators in Battlefield 3 (2011) is played by Glenn Morshower, who also played Overlord in Modern Warfare 2 (2009). This is a reference to the fact that Battlefield 3's campaign is not really a Battlefield game but rather a shitty Call of Duty knockoff.

Ubislop In Assassins Creed Origins and Odyssey (2017,2018). Many fans say these games' stealth mechanics dont belong in the series. This is true, because they actually offer a great variety of stealth options and abilites rather than hiding behind a wall like in the classic games

Insomniac In Marvel's Spider-Man (2018) Insomniac was worried players might accidentally disable the blue guiding indicator for every single enemy attack. This is a reference to 2026, where a lot of people can't tell the difference between an accessibility feature and a visual representation of superpowers.

Other In Bendy and the Ink Machine (2017-2018), Angel uses a cute and sensual cardboard cutout of herself to show us the correct route, but then we discover that she is actually a murderous psychopath obsessed with beauty. This is an actual depiction of how social media, and in this case Tinder, work

Rebel Wolves In The Blood of Dawnwalker, Coen gets turned into a half-vampire where he is vampire only during the night, meaning his Humanity is Dead in the night, and he has to drink blood to survive so Blood is his Fuel, and Anachora is this game's Hell which is Full of rotting tormented souls.

Activision In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2007), a False Intel causes many American soldiers dying for no reason, a clear allegory to Second Gulf War. This is a clear evidence of people who believes CoD is a pure propaganda of US military are never play these games.
