This has been a bit of a double edged sword for me. Because while I love they went to this trouble partly to include characters speaking in their native tongue - I can’t help but feel that some of the voice actors are noticably weaker than others in terms of line delivery. Just going through the voice lines there are…

Mei is in fact Chinese - Chinese though is a funny thing to actually portray since China is so large and different regions produce people of massively different features (my grandmother was from northern china, my grandfather from southern) and Chinese people can actually have fairly light complexion.

This is also at…

Was going to say, asians just don’t tend to be that large to begin with. Mei is smaller than some but she is in fact larger (in terms of proportion) from th elikes of Mercy, Tracer and Widowmaker. I actually would catagorize Mei as having a fairly normal build by the standards of actual human people.

Well if she says “at launch” then the statement is flat out wrong since Mei and Zarya were available at launch with Ana being the only hero presently available who was not. In that case the statemetn woudl be more accurate as “at announcement” which is really splitting hairs or moving goal posts to argue that these…

As I recall (and I could be wrong on this) that video from Sarkeesian is actually quite old and was before Zarya and Mei were announced (Zarya almost ebing announced in response). i won’t click the video because I just don’t care for Sarkeesian and do not wish to provide her with my traffic. But the reason those two…

I don’t think he intended to ruin the show, I think he legitimately thought he was being clever and funny (he wasn’t). But man that last line is pure gold to me, like some kid having his candy being taken away and just poutily screaming “I didn’t like it very much anyway.”

Or this rabbit

This take makes sense but even I had a problem with the Division as my friend and I have played through it. Frankly speaking it’s hard to tell the line between enemy and player when you consider that at the end of the day many (especially the cleaners) are in a panicked state trying to contain an outbreak. The player…

Not to mention this awful piece of media

The last line on this one sounds like somebody is trying to setup a Star Wars Hook-up site.

The legal papers look like they’re from the class action against Microsoft over the XBOX Live outage from 9 years ago. Although not necessary you may have been holding on to it as recieving those papers in the event of a class action settlement OR if you were holding onto it for news reporting purposes, so you’d have…

Always my favorite version of this.

My friend and I were doing Crimson Doubles back in February, we came back and won from a 0-4 deficit, that felt so damn good (probably pissed teh shit off of our opponents though).

Precisely - to me the boys shirt doesn’t say anything more than “I like Ghostbusters.” The same thing that frankly, most pop culture shirts say.

Which is particularly painful to me because I did that to when I wrote a fanfic . . . .when I was 14 years old.

Is that what we want for naming? No better quality or research than a 14 year old?

Which I would totally excuse if this were her father

Well I won’t disagree with you there -that is a seperate issue of its own how colors got gendered and how that systemically affects a lot of other products.

NO! We can’t do that yet, we still haven’t seen the inevitable Kotaku post of “Disney princesses as Overwatch characters” yet

Which wouldn’t necessarily be how a strict gender flop works in this case and I am willing to wager that the artist did not think of a completley alternate backstory for the character aside from possibily having a sister rather than a brother. If they had the backstory you’ve provided then it’s basicaly a totally…
