I beat Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon recently. Despite being britbong myth, I feel like the interpretation of the game's version of King Arthur comes across like a burger lib's interpretation of the burger founding fathers. The leaders of the institutions created by Arthur and his knights are incredibly corrupt, use the legacy of Arthur to justify atrocities, and is utterly impotent against the damage caused by the environment changing due to the Wyrdness. Also, Arthur and his knights committed genocides and fucked up human experiments because they saw themselves as the Adults in the Room who need to Make Tough Decisions to Get Shit Done.
To the game's credit, it regularly calls the legitimacy of that justification into question, and you can choose to not buy it. I ended up killing Arthur and forming a united front to defeat KKKamelot. Overall, it's indie Skyrim with less shitty politics that has a bunch of over the top Celtic accents in place of Nordic ones. 7/10, would play again.
