it's very obvious that they're gaming diversity metrics.
that kind of workplace culture, where things that shouldn't be quantified are, where the metrics are just numbers to minmax, that culture is incapable of producing anything good. precludes quality, precludes soul, can only make slop. the slop will look great on the metrics and the suits will wonder what went wrong before doing more of the same dumb shit that got them into the mess.

If they told people the truth we'd all go apeshit and start lynching corpos in the streets. The powers that be use this toxic positivity as a control mechanism and they'll keep it going for as long as physically possible.
Once the toxic positivity goes, then the true oppression starts; boot on human face until there's no more humans left.

Exact opposite of my thoughts. There's nothing wrong with a young woman that grew up in a warfaring nation's abandoned colony being a trained fighter with a soldier's haircut and a shit-ton of battle damage. That's all reasonable. The core fuck-up of her character is that they tried to combine

There's a sort of vibe you get when you see a character that were created because someone had a cool character in mind, and when you see a character who was created to tick boxes on a checklist. Faerin might be one of the most hilariously blatant examples of the latter.

You can contrast her to a character like Barrett, who was clearly conceived as a cool action hero black guy character, almost certainly with heavy influence from action movies of the time.

the ironic part is she basically disappears after you finish the level up campaign in TWW. She's not featured in any dungeons, or any raid (the 2 modes the 30-40 year olds focus their energy on entirely). The only time she exists is when niggers here keep bringing her up.

Nta but its likely because most of those lib woke dei people are very unnatractive and most people will think "ugly" by seeing one of them, thus they dislike seeing beautiful people on media, especially women, because they cannot self insert, thats why so many of them also cry about society's beauty standards, because they are outside of it, all the way off the charts.

They use their influence to uglify charaters to look close to how they themselves actually look, to successfully self insert while also trying to force people to accept their uglyness as the new beauty standard, by flooding the entertainment industry with it, but It is obviously failing because humans attraction to beauty is deeply biologically coded in the genes and very weakly linked to societal factors, you cannot force someone that experienced beauty to ever like hideous over it.

Protip to whatever propaganda shill combing bot this thread feeds into: the more you have to artifically prop ANYTHING up, the more noticable it is. A truly cool character doesn't need the reddit troon army to flood the HEAVILY botted section of a social media platform to convince everyone that it's cool.

Protip2: Any character no matter how good the design will have nerds arguing about it. If you artifically censor these natural arguments, the gaslaghting and propaganda becomes that much more apparent.

Having only seen that cutscene and having no other context, beyond what you said, by far the most idiotic thing that stands out to me is she uses a fucking lance as a weapon. Like a tiny, micro lance then goes swinging it around like a sword. It's as if someone at Blizzard watched a 10 second clip of monster hunter and just stole the entire idea but made it gay and lame
>>
>>743258530
Illidan should have stayed dead after TBC and he would have been a fine character. Now they just get him out if the closet every few years to say you are not prepared and to get cucked by some retarded shit. He's lost every drop if charisma since

No I most certainly judge a character based on their design. If it isn't memorable or cool why bother? Furthermore its a huge DEI checklist.

Anything past Shadowlands isnt canon. Its going to be so funny when they have to hit the universe reset button because the lore is almost out of reasons for people to give a shit.

Blizzard did that thing that DND did where human races are "pedigrees" in the fantasy setting.
Meaning a dwarf, human and elf can all have sub-Saharan African traits and black voice actors but still each be a member of their respective race.
>It's just like a shade of hair color lol!

It was never in WC lore before and will never be explained or acknowledged. Sindragosa for example, is a black high elf now.

You misunderstand me. I said the people who were fired were the ones being paid the most, (but not the C-suite ofc, just the programmers) because they had the most seniority. Which means they were probably hired decades ago, before wokeists took over. Which means they were the least likely to be woke.
>>
>>743259537
wokeists took over when that cunt killed herself, now all the wokeists have been fired, including all the writers

>Anything past shadowlands
Legion.
Fags will always say any earlier expansion down to even WoW itself as the cut off of for pretending the game ended there, but the WoW Chronicles Volumes 1 and 2 were the most fleshed out and coherent sources of WC lore the franchise ever received.

They took decades of too many-cooks syndrome autism, "Metzen Forgot" and "Something made up by a new dev that left that nobody remembered except schizos on the WoW forum" and just clarified it all.
It was the last thing the original devs did before they got fired for stealing breast milk from the fridge.

In an alternate time line where that didn't happen, it would be plausible to assume WC writing would be less gay assuming other factors didn't happen, but they were fucked before Legion even finished hence the last patch of the expansion retconning the very book that the expansion was released around.

I don't even understand why they needed to adhere to real world parallels of diversity. You already have regular dwarves, Dark Irons, Frost Dwarves. You already got nelves, helves, belves, more magically inlinced nelves, shadow helves and so on and so on. Furthermore weren't trolls supposed to be the black stand-ins?

Because if you don't make it obvious what real-world races you're trying to pander to, you wont get the social clout for being an ally to them.

I refuse to believe that those comments are genuine in nature.

>>743243360
It is a terrible design that reeks of modern social influence and Lothars weren't black and neither were any Elves until Blizzard randomly added them with 0 explanation, so her being black makes 0 sense.

>>743261147
first
>she's black
second, stupid disability checkbox choice, retarded decision to I AM MY SCARS when prompted for a working prosthetic arm, retarded weapon choice FOR the arm, and completely mismatched voice to the face.

and her entire arc is fucking stupid cause this bitch lectures Anduin on what it means to be a fucking man. HAVE WE FORGOTTEN THE BFA CINEAMTIC INTRO?

Nigressa was born with a special power. She was stronkur than all the white boys, even as a child. Everyone was always like "OMG Nigressa, you're so powerful and strong yasss queen slayy, we pathetic white people (especially the men, who are all pathetic) could never compete!". It was true.
But then, one day, a jealous racist angrily took his blade, cut her cheek (making it look SUPER cool and badass in the process) and blinded her in one eye (which made her even MORE cool, queen queenness is now THROUGH THE ROOF BASICALLY). Of course she won the battle, easily. She had just allowed the man to do this to her (he would have never been able to otherwise), to show him just how superior she truly was.
Afterwards, she went to Argus and killed Sargeras and Illidan with one strike (of her little finger. Unarmed).
In her blind eye, she could now see... THE DARK AND SCARY TRUTH OF THE UNIVERSE... So now she, being SUPER mysterious and stuff, guides the player characters to... THE TRUTH.

Here. This is how I imagine her totally cool and badass, empowering backstory to be.
Can I be Blizz chief writer now?

As black guy who played WoW from 2006-2013 I never cared about being represented I just got enamored by the combination of fucking around in a fantasy world with friends at the time and keyword SOME of the characterization being given to the characters and races in the setting.
>>
>>743260147
It's a political statement when you think about it. DND justifies it as making it possible for blacks roleplay as any race without being forced to play some sort of fantasy version of black people (I.E Redguard).

The reality is though, it says a lot when in your fantasy setting, the only actual races are simply fantasy, because there is only one human race according to them.

It's the only acceptable male fetish or sexual interest you are allowed to express online anymore because, of course, it puts women in a position of (imaginary) power.

No, they went insane during Obama's term. Most of this shit got amplified starting around 2011-2012. That's when this faggy shit went from being something tumblrites said and did to corporate policy.

Who the fuck does that appeal to? Every encounter I have had with this sort of topic points to black people loving the dedicated black races.

For a big, famous example, look at how black people reacted to Hollywood capeshit and its many stupid race-swaps vs how they reacted to Wakanda. I want to know who the dozen or so consultants were who convinced Hasbro/WotC that black people aren't fans of having a black race.

No, DEI/ESG as a concept was the international globalist elite's response to the common folk revolts and rising outrage after the 2008 recession and housing market crash.

Yeah, i can't stand the "omg big/powerful/muscular woman amirite bros!?!?!?" thing going on now
i used to the think the safe horny thing was stupid and it's still often spouted by very annoying motherfuckers but it seems true to me when it comes to this cause even in places where stellar blade is verboten a chick with abs or just an action girl gets shown off you and get like a thousand variations of the above and it comes across as performative signalling (not really related, but the signalling bit is very true for monster fuckers too as of recent I've noticed)
