This whole Overwatch thing is honestly one of the most funny things to happen with gaming journalism in a while. Literally all that happened was that Blizz decided that a certain pose didn't fit in with a character's personality. Of course reddit picks it up as just another way them "Es-Jay-Dubbleyou's" control them, and so of course sites like the Huffshiftpost decides to do the opposite.
Who cares
its a shitty game
But that's literally not what happened.
It was a "sorry for making you feel excluded, we'll try to do better".
Of course the fact that they had another animation made already means that the whole thing was a publicity stunt but acting retarded is still retarded.
How is that not her personality? Are her tights not her chosen due to her personality?

they responded to one person's disgust with the pose and removed it. It had nothing to do with "fitting the character" it was put in to be sexually appealing, then removed to be safe, it's just about blizzard sucking anyone's dick to get a dime

>Literally all that happened was that Blizz decided that a certain pose didn't fit in with a character's personality
This is literally bullshit. It suits her perfectly and it's no more offensive to some chick standing around in yoga pants
>>332765075
It's not even out you autistic fuck
I don't get what they mean by it doesn't fit her.
Every other character has the same exact pose but for some reason hers is the problem?
>>332766174
Press release was months ago faggot.
>>332764996
At least 4 other characters, male and female, have the pose and out of all of them it fits Tracer the best. What happened is either:
>Blizzard doing it all on purpose as a publicity stunt
or
>Kaplan by himself made a really stupid comment and forced the rest of the team to back him up
>>332766113
It's their character so they get to decide what fits the personality or not. it was originally used on the character to save resources (the pose is used across several characters).
Who really has the time to invest in another shooter? It'll be a slight variant of the hundreds of decent ones we've already played. Shooters are a pleb genre. It's what middle and high schoolers play when they haven't been exposed to the superior genres of gaming.

If anything it makes sense, shes faster than you and always ahead
Is there a real difference between /v/ and reddit ?
>>332766646
It's not her running, though. She's just standing there.
>>332766757
Thats why its a pose.
>>332764996
Yeah fuck reddit. I'm glad that I'm here and can talk about social justice with you guys.
>>332767079
What does that have to do with her being faster, then?
>>332767276
cause you are 'behind' her, its a pose that can represent that, she doesnt needs to be moving, thats what gameplay's for.
What the fuck is going on today
test
>>332765182
If Kaplan said that in the first response then sure, but he never did.
Pic related.
It was only after 13 hours to be exact he responded with
>lol this blew up
>we already agree that the pose doesn't fit her
>We already had a pose ready anyway
If there is anything gamers get really butthurt about its usually something thats not worth even knowing about honestly.

So if she doesn't need to be moving, or in fact not even have any body language saying she's just stopped abruptly or she's about to run off (It's a pretty stiff pose, truth be told), why is it a good pose for how fast she is?
>>332767870
How fucking dense can you be, it even is a fucking trope of fast characters.
Stops, looks behind him *too slow kid*
Or some shit like that. Please stop posting
Testing something
>looking behind somebody doesn't fit with their character
Unless the character has a spinal injury this doesn't make any sense and never did.
>>332768038
>is a fucking trope of fast characters.
No it isn't. Plenty of 'slow' characters strike a pose of looking back over their shoulders. Even in this game they do.
There's nothing in the pose that speaks to a character being fast.

You're literally retarded. The animation file for a pose is about the size of your dick -- so small that it's usually below the minimum size a filesystem can even recognize. You could stuff about 2 million poses in the sound file where the character says something stupid like "If we're gonna beat these guys, I gotta go fast!"
>>332764996
People are willfully ignoring the fact that they said the pose or other sexy poses would be fine on certain other characters. This whole thing is people wanting to be pissed off at something
