So, can we expect cover for Widow cleavage?

Yeah

But here’s what I’m tripping on. Was there or wasn’t there a McCree Summer Games skin, that had homie with no shirt on and swimtrucks. ā€œLifeguardā€ was the name of it, with him chewing on a popsicle stick. Lmao. Belt buckle with the initials ā€œS.A.M.F.ā€ Now, I wonder what that could possibly be an abbreviation for… :thinking:

That old win-pose was infinitely superior to the new 1, in my opinion. That with the posh skin…? Yeah, seems about right. Would go together like milk and cookies. Peanut butter and jelly. Cereal and milk. :ok_hand:

You’re the first person I see (outside of Twitter) defending this ad

I was going to say something in favor of bewbs, but looking at that first Jaina image, the design was not very good. There was basically only her vest covering her boobs, which were out of her corset-thingy, apparently.

I’m ok with this change since the design was ridiculous.

Yeah it has always amazed me that a family friendly company like Blizzard went with the BAMF logo in the first place xD

But I guess double entendres and such are a way of keeping shows family friendly.

Absolutely halal

Blizz changed it far too quickly for that to be the case. I think it was changed in like 3 days of the original post? A week? Far too soon, especially just for a thread on the forums. Blizz’s statement on it was just to get brownie points.

Both of them showing her butt, the first one looks like she showed it off on purpose, while the second one looks like she’s having fun - aka more in her character.

For example, big butt and showing off cleavage is Widowmaker’s theme, so nobody said anything about it since she’s supposed to be a femme fatale.

Bliz changed a character’s butt to fit their personality.
Everyone else: ā€œSJW!!ā€

Widow is designed around the ā€˜femme fatale’ archetype and she doesn’t have much in the bust department anyway.

As for that Jaina card, it looks like she has nothing under her little shirt there, which is probably why it was changed for China apparently. Desensitized people like to cry about crap like this when they already live in a hypersexualized world. It’s not that bad either way although it doesn’t really blend well with the rest of that corset.

People still play hearthstone? :astonished:

i was gonna reply to this with something but i kept using the word sex too much so i just stopped.

Well, Blizzard put this in HoTS this year:

Not all hope is lost :joy:

If you wanna see bewbles play paladins its got way better. Overwatch is basically E for everyone but T b/c of mccree’s cigar in his highlight intro

i member how Tychus and Gazlowe lost their cigars in HOTS…

That’s probably because any hint to the afterlife (including zombies) is illegal in China. In the Chinese WoW client, all Undeads even have their typical Undead features covered or removed for the same reason.

But Jaina’s cleavage? There are Chinese MMOs out there with statues of naked women with… ahem… ample bosoms.

Jaina’s art now looks like any other Jaina art where she’s portrayed wearing this outfit. The Hearthstone one looked… weird. So, it’s fine.

Little kids with no hair below their chins will whine about this like brats and forget about it in 2-3 short years.

Seen this before too many times.

Whenever I stumble over something like this I cannot help but wonder how do these people, who initiate such ā€˜moral’ fixes to Tracer’s or Jaina’s designs, feel in, say, Rome’s historical centre? Or in Louvre or any other museum rich with ancient Greek/Roman exhibits?
Do they shut their eyes and run fast through those halls? Or do they throw tantrums and demand the administration to change the statues’ poses and cover it all up? /s x)

Seeing how animation treats female characters these days ( One Piece for example ), it makes me wonder why and how censoring exists.

It must be for the Chinese and US crowd, I cannot find another answer.
