I’m not saying I know anything about this Dragon Age, I haven’t played it.

I think it’s a fair point though, to imagine an a-political narrative game, because I think most if not all RPG games I can think of have some kind of political content.

Shifting the goalposts on behalf of OP, but whatever. Where are you guys coming from?

Narrative games of any scope are almost inevitably going to bump into themes like hierarchy, power dynamics and moral dilemmas. That doesn’t make them “political” in the sense that they’re directly discussing real events around you. I won’t presume anything about your personal position here, but OP gives the impression that if a fantasy game depicted a fictional race subjugated by another he would start complaining that it was woke.

If you want a story without those things you largely need to pick a different genre.

That’s what I’m trying to say. I don’t think such a game is feasible.

Also, in the context of this threat, saying “ooo Tetris isn’t political!” is being pedantic, that’s not what the person meant when they asked for an example of a non political game.

I would like to find a game free of political message,

They asked for a game free of political messages, and got several. Are you sure that’s not what they meant? Does Tic Tac Toe have political messages? What about 2048?
