The difference isn't in subject matter, but writing quality. I like retro shooters and considering Build Engine(think Duke Nukem) style games are based on movie genres, I'd love a blaxploitation game were I'm shooting Nazis and throwing molotov cocktails at clansmen. The subject matter would absolutely be in you face.
Remember, people got offended at how Nazis were portrayed Wolfenstein, a game solely about killing Nazis.
We can critique the writing of games like Dustborn, but the moment you start complaining about "wokeness", you signal that you're just gaming the algorithm for the lowest common denominator of viewer to drive that ad money up.
