Brigitte was boring until they slapped armor on her and gave her a rocket flail
Iâve said it before and Iâll say it again, designs and character can improve a lot

wait, which one of those is Junkrat?
Because they added a mecha rolling ball hamster and space gorilla over all of the minorities who havent been represented, including black females.
How the moon got more representation than I do?
Wait so Overlord? Because Iâm totally down for Overlord. He doesnât look⌠effeminate though? More just a âcuteâ young guy.
Or just Handsome Jack, thatâd work too. Heâs my second favourite villain, second to Reaver from the Fable series.
Almost certain itâs gonna be Junker Queen.
Youâre asking for a personality type, so yes it is, youâre not talking about ability ideas or anything that would impact the game in a meaningful way.
Then create ideas for the whole character, instead of asking for personality traits that donât affect gameplay. This is a side thing, not the main reason to create a hero.

Junker Queen. Theyâve been teasing her long enough. About the same as Doomfist now.
Probably because itâs expected that Blizzard will handle that part of the job well enough that itâs inherently understood as part of the request. You donât need to specify an entire kit to request representation.
You might as well complain that people donât ever specify in actual hero concept threads that the heroes should have collision detection enabled and not fall through the floor, and thus obviously they donât care about proper coding.
Expecting is one thing, now asking/demanding it is a bit much. If they feel like doing it, let them do it, if not, whatâs the problem?
This is just my opinion, but I really donât care about these things, donât mind if they come, but Iâm not going to ask for it to be done, nor do I think people should ask/demand it. Talk about possibilities? Sure go on, so long as you come with the whole character and not just a shallow personality trait that doesnât affect gameplay.

Alright, stop throwing things out of context. I donât care about character personalities, BUT I also donât think itâs right for people to ask/demand such things for whatever reason.
how about we dont enforce gender sterotypes, it triggers me. When will we get a non-binary gender-fluid asexual demi hero that i can identify with.
Itâs not out of context. Itâs the same argument I see all the time and itâs bogus:
âI really donât care about representation, but I have strong enough feelings that I think itâs wrong when minorities ask for representation, a thing I also admit doesnât matter at all to the game and thus am tacitly admitting is harmless when included.â
If it honestly doesnât matter to the game, and you honestly donât care, you wouldnât be in this thread or any other making the argument. But youâre going to reply to this post arguing back. I bet 100 SR on it.
The go find a place to claim it.
Seriously now? Itâs a videogame, something made to be fun, not to throw politics or what have you into it, thatâs my problem with this whole thing, not the fact that people are being represented, but people asking/demanding that it happens and that being a priority over ability design.
If like you said Blizzard handled these sorts of things so well so far, why not let them do their thing? Instead of asking or demanding?
But whatever, say/do what you want.
And have fun in the Capoeira class.
Ooh yes please! <3 though I do have to say for clarity sake after reading these comments; effeminate and flamboyant and two very different things, so lets just hope no one gets it twisted.
A black woman isnât a political statement, nor is she infringing on fun. Look at Apex.
And honestly I donât get why people are afraid of politics in a game littered with social politics, political intrigue, militarism, and terrorism by design. Weâre not playing Pong here. The very name of the game references a defunct military organization. I mean.
Absolutely 0 people are saying that Blizzard should sacrifice gameplay for representation, which in turn contradicts your own argument that itâs meaningless.
It also doesnât make sense unless you think we shouldnât get any more heroes until the current cast is pitch perfect, since the design department works parallel to the programming department. If Ashe had her black concept design, the game would literally be the same as it is now, except black folks would be a twinge happier, and I donât see why thatâs an awful outcome.
They havenât put in a black woman as a playable character yet, so one can- as many have- argue theyâve dropped the ball extremely hard on that. They make entertaining characters with interesting kits regardless though, which is why no one is obligated to state they perform that overt part of their job when requesting representation.
what about a hero having a personality is political lmfao
