Yet more of social media’s best and brightest have found something new to get offended by as a map in Overwatch 2 happened to have benches with partitions on them, which are used to discourage the homeless from sleeping on them, and complaints about this led to the benches being fixed (rather than the already highly criticized game).
A Twitter user brought attention to this “highly offensive” matter:
The developer team, much like Blizzard, seemed intent on upholding “social justice” and immediately sought to rectify this inexcusable mistake, as a subsequent tweet from the Twitter user revealed that the bench’s partitions were removed, and possibly ending homelessness as a result:
Gavin Jurgens-Fyhrie, the lead narrative designer for the not well-received Overwatch 2, described the Twitter user’s remarks as “great feedback” and stated “‘how we hope the world will be’ is a big part of our story dev”.
This isn’t the first time Blizzard expunged things from Overwatch at the demand of the socially inadequate, as a “noose” was previously removed from the game, and McCree’s name was changed due to him being named after a developer responsible for questionable things at the company.
SJW = Financial loss
If that were even remotely the case, then large corporations wouldn’t even be attempting to respond to the feedback of people with more progressive tendencies
Are you fucking retarded, or are you just “pretending”?
Look at what sjw have done to comics, films, games, and soon manga.
Pretending like woke ideology isn’t literally cancer on most of the things it infests doesn’t make you a good person, it makes you the problem with society.
@01:50, they’re responding to Twitter femcels that, as you can see here, have no more than 420 likes. These companies are bankrolled by Blackrock which offsets the loss of revenue due to woke garbage, and yes, it does indisputably cause revenue loss.
Goes “a long way” to what?!? JC are these people insufferable.. The only ones worse are the devs themselves.
I find it funny that they are using the same type of logic and arguments that turned most big CA city streets into literal bathrooms, their parks and parking lots into tent cities and basically criminalized “interfering” with the homeless in any way, making them above the law and tax payers.
And when they turn their big left-wing cities into bathrooms, they’ll go live where you live, and vote for the same.
Like cancer cells spreading communism, the equality of misery.
I’m actually amazed it only took a tweet with 420 likes to get them to change something internally in game for no reason but this is no fucking surprise. Jeff Kaplan changes a pose to a post that has a few hundred likes and thinks that represents the whole community.
welcome to the liberal world order.
I’m sure a fictional homeless person will appreciate that
it’s not so a fictional homeless person can sleep in-game. it’s so no homeless person playing overwatch 2 will be offended. 🙂
Including all the ones that will play Overwatch 2 for long enough to notice this detail.
This is… actually real… oh man
This Twatter idiot complains about an aspirational universe, but he didn’t consider that homelessness might not exist in there, but these SJWs are not rational. The real issue is Blizzard changing it. Them constantly caving to lunatics earns them the current shitshow they are in.
Give yourself a headshot, incel n♥♥♥♥r
If no homeless people exist, then there is no need for a separator, as it was added to prevent homeless people from using benches for not intended purposes
those some real low-ass arm rests then
Now there is someone who is pure cancer.
