Youâre saying you donât like them being a gay couple. Thereâs no other change thatâs been made to them. Theyâre still the same characters.
In fact, you specifically worded the thread as âDEATH of Matthias Shaw and Flynn Fairwindâ, as characters, because of one signle reason: theyâre now GAY. How terrifying!
No, I donât. Because despite being gay, Iâve never in my life disliked certain characters being straight.
Never went on forums to complain that Thrall basically abandoned the Horde to go on and have a straight relationship.
You know why? Because thatâs fine. That is a legitimate character development in this world we live in. Saying that I donât like that relationship and that it somehow ruined the character that is otherwise the same as he was 15 years ago would be pretty absurd, and YES, would also be pretty straightphobic.
But you know what? It would be just fine if you just disliked it, but didnât go on the forums to complain about it, you know, like any normal human being would handle it. You did though, and thatâs a real shame.

Iâm sorry to hear that you were the victim of sexual abuse, I hope the abuser was prosecuted to the full extent of the law⌠doesnât change my opinion about the dangers of Xians offering the other cheek, merely to occupy the moral high ground.
I prefer Ezekiel 25:17.
âI will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the lord, when I shall lay my vengeance upon themâ
- King James Bible
Turning the other cheek is very popular with bullies and bigots, it means they can transgress, without consequences, which massively fuels their obsession with control⌠Gekko âgets itâ because you are enabling him.
If the story was about a Lesbian relationship, I very much doubt he would be creating threads to rail against it.

Thanks, and itâs OK to agree to disagree. I like to try end things on at least a neutral tone. 
Not going to post on this anymore, but I will say this last thing:
Blizzard can write how they want to, itâs all fine by me.

Straw man argumentâŚnobody claimed it didâŚthe point is that bullying is unacceptable and should be foughtâŚas indeed you claim to have done, thus undermining your entire point.
Swap lesbian with straight and I very much agree with this statement.
Iâve never seen anyone complain about a straight relationship or call it forced.
When âA Moment in Verseâ got released, the majority of people welcomed it. Those who didnât, their reasoning wasnât because theyâre straight or forced.
But every time a character is written to be gay or anything similar there is a literal uproar: this short story, the Tracer comic from Overwatch, Soldier 76âŚ
And the reason is because if it caters to them, these kind of people are happy, but if it isnât about them just once, theyâre unhappy.

The point I was making, is that heterosexual men often have no problem with lesbian fiction (since it feeds a popular male fantasy)âŚbut as soon as the couple are men, the complaints start.

The problem is here, they were not written to be gay, they were converted to be gay for LGBT appeal in an unorganic way.

Kinda suprised they went with the one âevilâ guy in the alliance to be the token gay.
Super suprised given all the âback stabbingâ jokes him being a rogue adds to it.
DisingenuousâŚthe real problem is that they are blokes⌠if you had suddenly discovered some unexpected girl on girl action in the literature, you would not have been complaining.

You must have missed the âin my hour of need, the Alliance gave me a case of crabsâ quest line?

You mean like Thrall wasnât initially written to be a father, Garrosh wasnât initially written as a villain, Shadowlands werenât initially written to be thousand of pretty realms? Your point?
Things develop, whether you like the way they develop or not.
Again, this isnât any kind of excuse for you to feed on.

Not actually trueâŚthere have been a noticeable number of pejorative and dehumanising epithets applied to the LGBT community, in comments on threads about this subjectâŚand all the other inclusivity subjects.
Not to mention the fact that most people with intelligence, are smart enough not to employ the crude and obvious approach, when campaigning against inclusivity⌠the subtle knife, is preferred.

What 
Garrosh has always been a scumbag still I would love to see such characters. He was racist, extremely antogonistic towards everyone except Orcs, imagine if he was turned into a pacifist modest Orc all of a sudden, it would be a terrible change.
I read the book Warchief, Thrall was in love with Taretha, he was written to be a father from the start what are you talking about?
And yet not a villain until the end of MoP.
Or maybe youâre just shipping them? Because Thrall was never in love with Taretha. Either way Taretha didnât even exist until BC.
So do you have any other arguments beside the fact that youâre homophobic or?
There was a development behind it. He has always been a scumbag, he was consistent and stable mostly. Alliance hated him for Theramore etc, Horde hated him for his racist attitude and all that was left was turning him into a raid boss. That wasnât nonsense.
Me shipping an Orc? No. He went rage mode upon seeing Tarethaâs lifeless head in a sack. Characters in such fictional worlds go crazy when they learn about death of someone they love.
