LGBT representation

[Deleted]

What about disabled people? Why can't my character be in a wheelchair? Are Blizzard ableist?!

Drek'Thar is in a wheelchair...

What about fat people? Why can't my character be fat? Do Blizzard hate fat people?!

There's a fat human quest-giver in the starting zone of WotLK. :P
There's also a pretty thin one right next to him.

Same for Christians, Bhuddists and Satanist .... where's muh religious representation?

And no blacks... i mean, orcs are suppose to be "the black race" but they are green... cuz we can't play the brown ones yet... but human is human, so why are there not actual black humans?

[Bitorez]

Yeah, that's the go to ace you guys always have online. Too bad it fools no one but maybe yourself.

Cool, gonna say that to my husband at dinner tonight, will be fun to see his reaction to me being straight...
Nice defense you got there but you already made a fool of yourself

Why is Blizzard so against creating characters that represent the LGBT community? I've searched a little bit and there are a few minor, obscure characters that hint at being homosexual, but they never openly admit it. So it's just open to interpretation.

Did anyone mention Tracer yet?

I mean, she's only the poster child for the largest FPS release in recent years...but i guess that's minor?

[Super Kami Dende]

You're calling me out on calling them a community, if I start calling them a demographic I'll be called out for discriminatory speech. Which one should I pick?

I'm sticking with community for good measure

......But they are a demographic? How does that even have anything to do with Discrimination?

[ItachiZaku]

Except only Tracer is actually gay, Wrathion and Anduin is just something that some idiots on the internet have made up.

Is she gay or bi? I'd hit it.

[tikcol]

Dispute it with fact then, spineless coward.

There are things in life which are not worth disputing. Letting them call themselves a community is one of them

THIS is the problem of society today. You don't say something (that is backed by FACTS) just because you are AFRAID of (maybe) being called for "discriminatory speech"....

Well, FUCK political (and any other) correctness!

They call themselves a community. If you stop calling them a community I'm sure they will not like it..

Wow it's almost believable the second time around, adding husband to the mix really increased the truth factor. Now on your next reply talk about sucking dick, you're almost there.

Seriously, how would lgbt character look like? I dont see any difference irl...

[Magally]

I'm sorry I'm not sure if you're talking about yourself here or not. I'm just going to smile and nod at you like I do with all your kind.

Wow, a rubber/glue response, having seen that since grade school.

It's known that Tracer is LGBT, it's also known that the backlash it brought probably wasn't worth it

There are crosses and churches all over WoW. We get you hate gays but are too pussy to say it but try and think a little harder before you make "witty" retorts.

Just because basic symbolism is shared doesn't mean that it is actually represented. The core of Christianity is not represented through the Church of the Holy Light. Why? Because the Light actually exists in the World of Warcraft, while religious beliefs are a figment of imagination.

Following your callow logic there's no issue in terms of LGBT representation because you can effortlessly crossdress ingame.

[sam86]

Very few characters have any relationships to begin with, straight or gay.

Next up people will say why aren't there any vegans in wow

pretty much both
Also don't druids consider the wow 'vegans' ?

Why is "LGBT community" suddenly such a bad thing?

You can build a community of everything, anything...

holy moly, you are an insecure one aren't you? Keep the strawman fallacies coming, make yourself look even dumber (probably not possible)

[tikcol]

There's more to that than meets the eye.

Lmao, why don't you believe him? If the guy tells you he's gay, he's gay. If he's lying good for him but who cares?

[grexly75]

For instance: Final Fantasy XIV. There isn't a single representation of any kind of sexuality. It's fine.

WoW on the other hand has got people having kids and stuff

Talk about double standards, so it is perfectly fine that FF14 does not have LGBT rep in it, but for some reason WoW must have LGBT rep in it.. Talk about a load of bollocks..
