in the same way that there is no such thing as an antiwar movie, there is no such thing as an antichud video game

I think some come close, like those "walking simulators" that they foamed with rage about for the last decade.

I wish Death Stranding had more walking and less throwing piss at ghosts

That would disappoint @DirtOwl@hexbear.net

The first bossfight disappointed me so much by its very existence I gave up on the whole experience why are there even bossfights at all in my walking simulator

Chuds get mad at games that either A) have explicit, overt sympathy for socialism (Disco Elysium) or B) focus on the perspective of women, non-white people, LGBTQ people, or all of those at once (Night in the Woods, Life is Strange, Gone Home, etc). Since chuds are largely media illiterate, they mostly get mad at B and merely get confused by A.
