She’s not being nerfed, she’s being adjusted to better represent accessibility to modern healthcare

So... you could say that they were... merciless?

People aren’t “looking for reasons” to be angry. People are rightfully angry over transphobia, and this game is based on the franchise created by one of the world’s most visible transphobes. And fuuuuuuuuuck you and your stance of “ignore it and it’ll go away”. That’s not how social change works. The trans community…

what’s wrong with you?

Ya fuck no.

WTF is wrong with you?

Yeah...how about no? You wanna be toxic? Go teabag someone in Call of Duty. Marvel Snap is one of the few competitive games I’m actually enjoying and making it easier to harass/make fun of opponents would absolutely ruin that enjoyment. I get the game is competitive by nature but that doesn’t mean we have to cater to…

Based on the nature of this post I’m gonna go ahead and just withdraw my “Welcome to Kotaku“ comment that I made on your introduction post.

How about we not try to promote the ability to be toxic?

In the UK in 2020, 83 men were murdered by their partners - around 23% of all people murdered by their partners. In total around 27% of violent crimes occuring within a context of domestic abuse had male victims. 32% of people who experienced domestic abuse in 2020 were male. That’s around 1 in every 7 men…

How are you out of the grays?

Okay, who had “fetus unboxing video” on their Bizarre Internet Phrase bingo card this month?

First of all, once the the founder decided to discuss the Blizzard scandal in a public interview, he 100% opens the door for considering his words and his staffing decisions as a leader.
