It’s a good change. The pictures of female characters showing skin are nothing to do with feminism and all about male viewing pleasure.
How players choose to dress their characters is a matter of personal preference. I generally prefer mine more covered (aside from my DH dressed to show tattoos) because I’m not into ‘female armour’ that offers no protection to characters going into battle, but I’m not offended if other people like skimpy outfits.
Hypocrite much? It’s the exact same thing.
The player can be male or female and their personal preference is for their viewing pleasure of their characters.
Or male viewing pleasure (or lesbians… they exist too and guess what they enjoy) shouldn’t be catered to, just female viewing pleasure should?
Because this is sexism you’re perpetuating.
I think the timing of these changes on top of all they’ve been accused of is pathetic, quite frankly I think it’s even more pathetic that some people eat this blatant pandering up
Is there an election ahead somewhere? Oh wait… there is indeed… in Germany… brb just sending in my vote by letter so I can’t be brainwashed into changing my opinion after reading stuff online anymore…
As a 31 year old woman, this is ridiculous. I have been playing since I was 16 and I always loved WoW for the raunchy humor and skimpy outfits. This is getting stupid. Changing paintings and achievement names isn’t getting anything done. You’re just alienating people even more. I usually never comment but this genuinely pissed me off.
I think it give opposite effect, it show exacly how detached from reality are blizzard employees. Do only I remember times when women was not allowed to show her legs or go outside without family member or husband? Are we goint back to that times in real and in game too?
I feel no desire to tell any woman how to dress. Whether they want to wear skimpy clothing or a burqa, it’s none of my business because it’s their freedom to do so.
I think everyone is missing the real problem here…
What are we going to fap to now? Back in the day me and my friends would spend many a night lying in a semi-circle around a certain painting at Ravenholdt…
SI:7 was always a nice place to visit for a bit of fun after a raid…
Chinese regulations are of no concern for the game outside of China. We are already playing a different game than them to begin with and the Chinese version is heavily censored in comparison.
