Not defending the sexism (because it’s shitty and the more women who play games, the better), but gamer guys are still the outcasts. Being a gamer doesn’t generally come with the same negative stigma for women and I think that’s at least one source of the jealousy and backlash. From most of society’s perspective, if…

Don’t get your panties in a bunch. Food is not insidious, nor derogatory. Think about what you’re saying there. I’m english, and have heard Americans mock me online, and suggest I go and eat some crumpets. Is that racist? No, it’s just a stupid remark. As is the fact that Black People liking a type of food is somehow…
It’s not even the intent, so much as the historical association that the “slam” has with its intended target group. I mean, I’m white as the driven snow, and I love certain types of fried chicken—but if you put a bucket of KFC next to a picture of me, about the only thing you’re likely to get is: “ginger likes…
The ones who are not thinking about race 24 hours a day taking offense at everything.
Same as GTA probably. Turns out the whole thing is a video game
Guess it made a daring escape before its time was up
Assuming it lasted for 27 rounds like this one, and there are 3 possible answers per round, you need 7,625,597,484,987 players.
Wait...hang on. You think a teenage boy is going to ask his mom permission to watch porn?
That is a great comment. :)
I think your looking at them being ripped as a body type, which it’s not. If anything, I’d consider that a texture. Cause you can be any size and be ripped.
Didn’t realize being a standard female body type was a bad thing.
yeah and 8 of 12 is a solid “D” what’s your point. 4 of 12 is plenty diverse. When is it enough Mr. diversity queen? When will you realize you are simply pushing conformity to anti conformity. You aren’t any different.
Players think it stems from women being held to conventional standards of attractiveness that men aren’t. It’s an issue not just in Overwatch, but in animation and other mediums as well.
Blizzard is not Hollywood. Black guy as a comic relief is far more cliche and was like that for decades. As I said in a previous comment; Tracer is lesbian. Zarya is a gym nut. Symmetra has autism. Orisa is a robot created by a little girl. For a triple a game developer this is a pretty good start. These people,…
People are once again creating an issue where none exist.
From a character design perspective, Orisa is the only one who actually breaks convention. A lot of the guy characters tend to push their body types to extremes.
As a black guy who genuinely loves the inclusiveness of Overwatch character designs I do have to agree, to put down blizzards character designs as lazy just because two white girls have somewhat similar faces (while having completely different silhouettes, abilities and characterization) is ridiculous.
