If you assume this is about the recent controversy of the ‘Tracer’ character of the upcoming Multiplayer FPS Overwatch<\/em>, you would be right. And I think it’s time to give my two cents about the whole ordeal.<\/p>\n

But before I start, I just have to say this. Was watching a video from Gaijin Goombah about it, and I don’t think I have ever (seriously, I did this IRL) fallen out of my chair, laughing my ass off as much as I did of this video… with him saying to “trust Blizzard to do the right thing”.. BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
\nObviously, he wasn’t talking about WoW. But the very thought of “trusting” Blizzard to do right? .. Holy FUCK, that’s comedy gold! Of course, he was doing that video at 5 in the morning, feeling like pure shit. So it’s possible he didn’t know what he was talking about.<\/p>\n

With that out of my chest, I actually do find the Tracer character a bit too<\/em> sexy in that pose. But as someone said, “sex sells”. Especially when it comes to video games.
\nTake the Tomb Raider<\/em> series (minus the spin-offs and the really bad console ports). In the 90’s, sex really did sell back then. Kids were really….attached watching a grown woman running around a mine, grunting and stuff and totally not whacking off IRL at the same time.
\nMy point is, breasts and butts were popular back then. The sexier the character, the more copies it sells. But here we go, almost in the early 2020’s. And parents say “ACK!! LOOK AWAY!! SHE LOOKS TOO SEXIST FOR MY KIDS!!!”… what’s hilariously ironic is most of these adults, used to be the kids that played Tomb Raider<\/em>!<\/p>\n

Sex sells. Any video game company would tell you this. It even worked for the Metroid<\/em> series of Samus being sexual-looking. Yet no one gave two fucks! Yet, NOW we are?! Seriously?<\/p>\n

.
\nGrow up, people. It’s just a computer model FFS. I would<\/span>, however, support the complainers if Tracer was bending over and shoving her ass in the camera, while rubbing her cunt. THAT…. that folks, would be sexist. And that would not<\/strong> be OK in my book. That’s fucking Rule 34 material. Ugh. Now I need some brain bleach.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
