    Because asking for stuff to get removed usually tends to get a negative response from people that do enjoy these things.

    Go ahead, meet up with some Mythic Raiders and ask them to have Mythic raids removed, tell me whether they're going to give you any positive responses.

    So...why not ask for that, rather than have other elements removed?

    I'm going to take a wild guess that entire situation you're referencing would've gone a lot of different if that person had asked "hey, can you give us something that we women enjoy?"

    Okay, has she been elected by womanhood as their representative?

    It's like saying "A WoW Player has said the enjoy more difficult raids, thus every WoW player wants more difficult raids".

    And that still doesn't change the fact that this isn't representative of women as a whole.

    You can beat around all you like, simply because a woman or some women speak out on a given issue, that doesn't mean they represent women as a whole.

    The Jailer "covered up" for his raid fight and you didn't see anyone complain, did you? Weird, right? Isn't it weird how people only seem to complain when female characters get covered up? And then it is suddenly woke thinking. Isn't that inventing a problem just so you can complain about wokeness?

    I mean there is a double standard going on but its not just games, its other media as well. But this is getting off topic.

    the dragons aren't a illusion when in different forms any injury carry's over to any form they take, garrosh kills a bronze dragon because of that.
    All I ever wanted was the truth. Remember those words as you read the ones that follow. I never set out to topple my father's kingdom of lies from a sense of misplaced pride. I never wanted to bleed the species to its marrow, reaving half the galaxy clean of human life in this bitter crusade. I never desired any of this, though I know the reasons for which it must be done. But all I ever wanted was the truth.

    Why would a company like Blizzard waste resources "applying equality" to male outfits when men/some women in general are not generating outrage on social media/hollywood? You don't see men throwing fits about how the Jailer is appealing to a woman's sexual fantasy (muscular, tall, deep voice, rebel/bad boy) do you? Answer: You don't.

    Also, this form of equality you're asking in nonsensical. One character has an outfit change due to story development and a company MUST create outfit a new outfit for other characters?

    I'm well aware of the whys, and I don't care if single characters change outfits.
    I do care that I can't dress sexy while you can though, that's pretty nonsensical if you ask me.
    The problem is that the entirety of female outfits moved in the "cover her up" direction, all of them, the males didn't. If it was just Alexstrasza and she was the first character, I wouldn't care.

    Second, someone has to start saying something at some point, it's okay for some women to be a bit sexy at times, no need to panic, it's also okay for guys like you yourself seems to imply.

    It could be an expansion about murlocs for all I care, as long as the game's fun I'll play it, and if it's not, even the best story and setting won't save it from becoming BFA 3.0.

    Didn't they just implement an incubus model, while keeping the succubus model sexy?

    The reason they changed Sylvanas and Jaina was because they didn't feel it was appropriate for the leaders of nations to be traipsing off into battle with exposed midriffs.

    The Jailer is half naked because he's just been freed from his prison. He dons a full suit of armor when he goes to battle in Zereth Mortis.

    There are still plenty of female characters in WoW that are dressed more risqué, where it suits their character.

    And there's absolutely nothing stopping you as a player from dressing your character how you want. More freedom to go skimpy now than ever, in fact, since you can now hide every piece of armor apart from pants, and there are literally pants in the game that show more skin than the default underwear do. You can go completely topless if you want, just your default racial bra.

    Thrall had an unbuttoned blouse showing midriff when he was the leader of the cataclysm, Illidan was the posterboy of both TBC and Legion, both times wearing only pants, so surely it doesn't have anything to do with leading a faction or fronting the expansion.
    It was apparently ok for them to "be traipsing off into battle with exposed midriffs." as you put it, surely it's no better or worse for guys to not cover their belly. So 3 times guys fronted an expansion, hey, no problem, no shirt needed.
    3 times girls fronted expansions, hey, better cover that belly.

    Check your own avatar and signature, shirtless guy ready to fight, or do you think he needs to put something on to protect his midriff? In your signature it looked like he "traipsed off into battle with exposed midriff"

    And yes they added an incubus, that was a job well done, not complaining about that at all.

    There is this stupid idea that women die instantly with an exposed midriff, but not guys.

    I neither harass women at work, nor treat them differently.

    If you however think, there is a causation between scantily clad women in video games and those issues, then you must be one of those people that believe that FPS games promote gun violence.

    Dragonflight, yeah sure. And how are these dragons supposed to fly when we have a ban on flying? Fuck the flight ban!

    And Tinker is the shittiest idea for a class since roleplaying games exist.

    If we have DragonNOflight until 10.1.5 or whatever, the memers are going to lose it. It'll be memeageddon.

    That's the most "comparing apples to oranges" thing I've ever seen.

    Do you really think the response for "Can we add anime hunks" will be taken positively? And on the subject of player housing, have you not seen the bajillion threads about people wanting that?

    I'm going to take a wild guess that entire situation you're referencing would've gone a lot of different if that person had asked "hey, can you give us something that we women enjoy?"
    She did. Did you even watch the video I linked? What she said was "However, I was wondering if we can have some that don't look like they stepped out of a Victoria's secret catalogue?"

    Not "Can you change some" Not "Can you take some away" but "Can we have some"

    Okay, has she been elected by womanhood as their representative?
    Now you're just being an idiot. No, she was not elected as the representative of "all women." But I'd say that a video of woman asking for something, backed up by cheers of women is more representational of what woman want than one guy on a message board.

    You can beat around all you like, simply because a woman or some women speak out on a given issue, that doesn't mean they represent women as a whole.
    I'm sorry, but anything you say is completely invalid as you weren't elected by MMO-Champion to represent the site as a whole. What you say doesn't matter in the slightest because of that. Off you go now.

    You do realize this discussion has been kicked off by an existing character receiving a new outfit?

    Taking a small interest group as "proof" to what a large group of people wants is simply stupid, you can handwave that aside all you want.

    That is utterly tortured logic, because the natural implication is to stop doing one thing, rather than add new stuff for them to enjoy.

    That's the problem, they're requesting to stop adding things other people enjoy and the result of this request has been that characters who previously wore more revealing outfits, now wear a less revealing outfit.

    A more apt request would have been "Hey, can you add more stuff out of a Calvin Klein catalogue"?

    In the grand scheme of things, they're still absolutely not representative.

    "Look, 10 people support something and this one guy doesn't, that means the 10 people are correct!".
    Is that how make decisions when talking about the preferences of millions of people?

    I never claimed to be but i also wasn't the person who implied that a handful few represent a group of millions.

    Hope alexstraca is as sexy as ever, but with how emontionally unstable and hard-on woke america is now, I highly doubt it. At least we got alternatives to the far east, which is pumping out sexy females left and right. I have never ever met a female that wanted less revealed clothing in a game, these must be cherrypicked examples from the deepest shithole on the web.

    Blizzard will drag WoW on forever. I'm waiting on the Light vs Void fight and the end of WoW so they can make something more modern.
    WoW is getting really old.
