To be perfectly honest: I believe there are far more conservatives that would bash than progressives that would hype.
Bad PR would outweigh the good PR.
That only concerns LGBT though.
I doubt there would be negative PR because of a well written female character.
I think it started with someone interpreting a remark of the person that left as sexist.This thread is about someone leaving Blizzard not about minorities being misrepresented. Why is everyone SO off topic.
Not sure though.
As far as the topic goes: Who gives a damn. None of us has any facts on the matter, as such, constructive discussion is impossible anyway.
We can only guess as to why Rob has left.
