I know you probably don't mean it this way, but the seemed implication with your post is that people without wokeness have those creative skills and ambitions, which is why I sometimes come into these threads to point out that eradicating perceived wokeness won't suddenly erase all untalented people from the world.
There will still exist those same people who don't have creative skills and ambitions(for example, nepotism babies) because wokeness/anti-wokeness itself is considered a secondary symptom to a much larger problem.
The fact that the topic of wokeness has ballooned this large online into being something everyone is pointing a finger to when it comes to such things like skill level is actually quite sad.
Unskilled unwoke people exist too.
Absolutely.
But the woke culture or religion or cult or whatever you would like the percieve it as doesn't facilitate creativity and skill because of their beliefs. They believe they must never work hard because of mental health, they can never make a game about x y or z, they believe that they must spread their will to others and force them to feel/think a certain way.
I'd argue it's exactly why we don't really see any good religious games either, and I don't mean religious as in games that tackle religion as a plot, I mean religious as in the creator and the games entire design is around the belief of the developer and it is made purely in a bubble for other people of that faith.
Honestly swap out woke for Christian or any other religion and you'll mostly come across the exact same issues with game development.
Until woke people can prove they can put wokeness aside and actually become passionate about their product I'm always going to call them out. The difference is that a Christian will make a christian game for Christians where as wokeys are infiltrating the big companies to try brainwash and spread/force the word of their woke doctrine on to others.
There's a delicious hypocrisy to woke people.
