i dont think anything about that is gross. but thats my opinion just like you thinking it is gross is yours. doesnt make either of them true.

and? who cares if thats the aesthetic someone likes and wants their game to have. there is NOTHING wrong with it.
Okay? Like I said: the conclusion there is that you're part of the problem, not that your opinion should be taken seriously just because you have an opinion.
Aside from the massive shitshow of harassment and toxicity that's been revealed as part of this suit, you mean? Lol.and? who cares if thats the aesthetic someone likes and wants their game to have. there is NOTHING wrong with it.

just like you think i am part of the problem, the conclusion here is you are the one who is part of the problem. by screaming about such non issue items, you take away from real problems, like work place harassment.
Again; it does when your definition of attractiveness is inherently bound up with a sexist worldview, as is the case of Blizzard and a lot of people following that 80s fantasy aesthetic.
You can just say you've run out of talking points rather than parrot shit I've said in some lame attempt at "no you're actually the sexist for speaking up about sexism", lol.just like you think i am part of the problem, the conclusion here is you are the one who is part of the problem. by screaming about such non issue items, you take away from real problems, like work place harassment.

It took you this long to bring out the race card?You're correct: the problem is your and Blizzard's definition of attractiveness being limited entirely to (mostly white) meatheaded musclemen in tank armor and skinnny big-breasted women in boob-plate
It does when their definition of attractiveness is informed by the same worldview that they think justifies harassing their coworkers, dude. This isn't difficult.
You know it's actually really easy to just admit you made a mistake in laughing at something in bad taste and... like... grow past it, right?

I mean, some posts before I describe him, in essence, as patronizing and now he's telling another person that their opinion doesn't matter because that opinion doesn't align with Elegiac's framing of the situation.
Go figure.
again, thinking something is attractive and putting it in a game, does not mean you will harass co workers. that makes no sense. you are trying to correlate things that have no relation in the slightest.
i laughed at that video AGAIN today. it was an amazing response. lmfao they do not need to design character models around some crazy virtue signaling. lol
Thinking that only X type of women are attractive if they behave and dress in Y way at the exclusion of all others (and mocking attempts to ask for more options, i.e. not getting rid of what the developers think is attractive but catering to a broader audience) is a very good indicator that you're the type of person who harasses women or looks the other way when it happens, actually.
When y'all give a valid reason for alternative framing besides "it's still funny because I haven't outgrown a frat boy sense of humor", sure.
It's my usual facial expression when dealing with capital g Gamers, yes.
MMO-C is the direct result of the community that has been curated by Blizzard which is why it's hardly surprising there's a large number of people ready to derail and deflect from the point.

its insane to think any of that is an indicator that someone would harass another at work. totally insane. a developer does not need to get rid of what they think is attractive, its THEIR game, they are making it. you dont get to force an aesthetic on them.
