So Messi is supposed to be exquisitely aware of the entirely opaque aversion to shoes in their culture (which he is not a part of), but they aren’t expected to understand that he is unfamiliar with that quirk of their culture and refrain from losing their collective shit? Who gives a fuck if someone was offended over…

“We Egyptians have never been humiliated before during our seven thousand years of civilisation.”

I think you are missing Haisley’s point: US soccer’s deficiencies are the same now as they’ve been for the past 20 years - a lack of development coherence. It shouldn’t be surprising that our U-20 team does well: the US has existing soccer infrastructure to push the best and brightest teenagers up through the ranks…

That’s a lot of words to say what this guy said with a single t-shirt.

Here’s what you don’t get: women and teen girls will play this game. The same way you will, as escapism, as a challenge, to have fun. If every woman character is seen as simple fantasies for the men, which is what sexualizing ALL of them will do, they will never feel like the game is for them. They will feel like…

What is up with the womens personality police in here? You’re not women and y’all clearly don’t know any. Sometime women want to feel like Tracer, sometime the same women want to feel like Widowmaker, sometimes the same women even want to feel like the butch russian chick. It’s not up to the guys to make us into one…

*sigh*

If I considered every single creative direction I ever altered on a project prior to release “self censorship,” I’d go batty.

Congrats on being yet another person who is completely incapable of acting or communicating like a rational adult. You had the choice to open a dialog about this issue and have an educated discussion about the nuances of these issues but instead chose to directly insult a person you don’t know outside of a single…

No, it was removed because they agreed with the criticism that it didn’t fit this particular character.

No one is persecuting you. Nothing legitimately bad is happening to you. Stop acting like this is a real issue.

Ok first off what is

The levels of entitlement here are off the charts but hey, at least I got a laugh from you comparing this girl to a terrorist though. Truly insane and hilarious.

As much as I agree with it would of gone over so much smoother silently, this is just all part of the pain of games maturing as a medium.

That goes both ways though. The initial reaction to them taking out a single butt pose shouldn’t automatically be Vegeta levels of anger.

I’m really liking Blizzard’s thing here. They just so used to making this kind of material and then there just like..oh wait, this goes against what we want.

Before everyone looses their shit, its one change, to one character, made well before release of the game, that actually has a logical reason to it. So before the purity police get here and argue that any change is bad to the original work (which in this case doesn’t exist yet) or that this is Blizzard “caving to…

Been waiting for this and here is what I agree with.

Also there is no such thing as early April Fools’; you get April 1 and that is it.
