    "This wasn’t pandering or caving, though."

    Yes it was. It is exactly what it was. There had never been any mention of dislike with the pose and had been a pose that had been in the game since poses were added. less than 2 months before launch some hambeast gets butthurt about it and then it changes instantly.

    This was pandering AND caving.

    If the removal of a digital ass from a game ruins it for you it's pretty fucking pathetic.

    Lets edit that, actually

    "Oh my god, that girl has a nice ass. That's sexist."
    I wonder if we had a shirtless guy with abs, would these same people complain. Pretty sure not.

    If this is all people have to worry/complain about then they seriously need to get a grip.

    Just saying "sjw" because you are a sexist moron who wants his non sensical porn
    Romance doesnt detract from a story. Its a Genre, like horror or comedy or adventure. The game was ruined when we got Horror in drustvar or nazmir. It wasnt ruined when we had funny quests. So if you think a little man on man love ruins the game, then yes you are either a homophobe or just a spoil sport that goes "ewww kissing is yucky" like a baby. Furthermore, if a character has never expressed interest in any gender, then its not proof they are straight. straight people are not the default

    Pretend the SJWs that raise hell about things like this stupid pose are hardcore religious zealots.

    Think about that. The end result is the same- mind control and pushing their beliefs on the rest of us.

    This ENTIRE 'issue' was 100% created by Blizzard so they could look like good guys and to reenforce that Overwatch will be the politically correct version of Team Fortress.

    Just like my previous employer that was taken over by a bunch of morons- Blizzard is turning into a pure marketing corporation to sell games to non-gamers.

    Still doesn't justify a SJWs actions to censor something they don't like.
    I don't play the game. I don't give a shit one way or another, but in principle of it being removed BECAUSE a SJW said so, I absolutely abhor it. This has nothing to do with the actual subject of the content being removed or not, it's who did it and why.

    But it's not because an SJW said so. They made a comment, the devs considered it. The whole "SJWs are ruining my life" shtick is tedious in the extreme.

    That is what ALL SJWs say. It is a phoney Public Relations push by Blizzard. They invented this.

    Let me get this straight... We complained about Ashran FOR MONTHS, yet the devs did NOTHING to make it feel less mandatory for serious PvPers trying to gear as quickly as possible. The second someone mentions something being too sexy "Apologies and we'll continue and try to do better."

    Ashran is too sexy for me and it makes me uncomfortable. Rylai Crestfall is seductive as hell and I can't focus on the game. FIX THIS IMMEDIATELY BLIZZARD.

    As a Brit, and considering the topic of the post, I nearly spat my morning coffee out when he described her as "full of Spunk"

    Because Ashran has nothing "political" about it that needs "correcting." :^)

    Just stop supporting Blizzard.

    To supporting Blizzard is to support the SJW agenda.

    We have to learn to say "No.".

    Blizzard lives and dies by our money. Let them rot.

    But it's rated PEGI 12? The OP in that thread refers to a "young daughter" (whom I assume is 10 years or younger). So.... why are you letting your daughter near a game like this in the first place? I'd be more worried about the toxic community who will be cussing in chat than a girl in spandex.

    It's not the removal of the pose that triggers me per se, but the context behind it. Thankfully Kaplan went to put down the fire a bit before it went out of control.

    It makes no difference to the way the game plays, so I just think the entire debate is farcial. The original pose was fine, but I honestly couldn't give a shit if it's removed.

    So much pointless anger on both sides of this pathetic argument.

    Except that what they did wasnt caving or pandering?!?!?!?!

    Do you even know what that is?
    Pandering is modifying your behavior to specifically cater to certain demographic.
    Caving is giving up on something because of pressure.

    The person brought up a legitimate concern based on real issues, like the established lore of the character and the fact that no one ever ever
    ever poses like that unless its a model or porn star showing off their butt.

    I think its funny you bring up "butthurt" when its obviously you people who are freaking out over an out of character victory pose being taken out of the game and replaced with something that makes sense.

    But you know what? it doesnt matter.

    Your opinion doesnt matter, your side doesnt matter. You can go off to your dumb stupid corner of the internet and talk about the glory days when video games were made for men and their penises or whatever. The world has evolved and it doesnt want stupid people like you running the show.

    There was not one -single-reason- to have that other that gratuitous sexification of one of the most innocent childish characters in the game meant to appeal to MANY people, most of whom are non-sexist men, women, or children.

    So while it angers me to see so many idiots on this topic thinking removing a stupid aspect of the game is "pandering to SJWs", what i'm glad to see is based on the reply that the makers of the game dont agree with you, will never agree with you. I'm sorry but if you think having a basic level or respect and not turning a lovable silly character into soft porn is "pandering" then you are probably just a terrible person who fundamentally hates other people.

    The people behind Overwatch and Blizz have realized that tons of people of every age, gender, and identity plays and loves their games, so they are making games that everyone can enjoy. And this kind of blatant pandering to the (straight) male gaze is unprofessional and completely out of character. They thought so, they said they thought so (and if you disagree then you are just calling them liars which is just stupid), some players agreed which made them realize they were right to get rid of it , so they did.

    But here you go acting like its bad and that it hurts the game and insulting people you dont even know, tons of people who this game is made for.

    I am so happy that blizz and overwatch devs have realized they need to stop making games for gross people like you. I know they are, the signs are all clear. Call people "SJW" all you want. Every generation needs a "racist grandpa" to remind us of how far we've come. Congratulations on being the poster boy for the type of person they dont want to make games for.

    Good by forever. please leave. No one wants you here.
