lmfao, it still has zero substance behind it.. and is basically forced into the character with the sole goal of.
"I'm going to buy skins for this character because they are just like me"

It's low effort pandering, nothing more..

If people actually took step back and looked at the whole situation.. it's actually quite insulting to these groups. As its done with the sole intent of attempting to prey upon the identity and self confidence issues of people in these groups for profit..

I mean they claim to care.. but have no qualms about trying to use it as a distraction.

Who recalls when blizzard lashed out at that owl player who made a pro Taiwan statement.. then when the backlash was starting blizzard was like "hey 76 is gay"

Which was an insult to the intelligence of the entire playerbase.. and especially insulting to the gay community, to be used as a diversion like they attempted
Does it look like I care? I corrected someone on their mistake as they confused two different heroes lore. That's all there is to it.

You clearly do care, or you wouldn't of corrected them..

Just kinda sad, you chose to turn a blind eye to blizzard effectively attempting to exploit people's personal insecurities for profit.

Blizzard doesnt care about "representation" there actions and execution of it make that beyond clear..

But if they think it will get another dollar out of you, they have problem making very low effort attempts to pretend they do..

I don't care about your rant that was completely irrelevant to me correcting someone because what they said was misinformation about a hero.

Well, there were those times, but just because games—and media in general—weren't as political back then. Sure, there was media dealing with politics but it marketed itself as tackling those kinds of issues. No one was trying to include their political ideologies so obvious that even a toddler would notice in a game/movie/series etc. targeted towards an apolitical audience.

People like this guy just hate getting lectured in every single media they consume, even when it doesn't tell them that it will.
Who cares ?

What matters is how the character is played in game. If you care sm about its sexuality, sucks to be u

The real Overwatch players don't care, all we care about is the GAME, it's not a dating simulation game anyway. I don't get it why people spend so much attention on heroes sexuality, we've got many lesbian Overwatch porn on ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and now people are mad about heroes are being actually gay?

that´s risky, since there´s no list of officially approved genders.
however a MS word demi-paperclip xirself could be a fun hero to play, but that´s gambling with a ban already.

Good. Sheesh. Be more accepting. It’s normal to be nonbinary

Well, being non-binary by definition excludes being normal. You probably would describe a non-binary as someone who does not fit inside the gender binary. Guess what? Most people fall into the gender binary of male and female. Therefore, the gender binary is the norm and non-binary is not the norm—i.e. not normal.

I am pretty sure, you or at least some of the people complaining in here about OP's post would be pretty upset regarding a character who is a conservative Christian if Blizzard would make one and proudly announce it. Politics of any kind just should not be in apolitical games/media.

Honestly, I do not care that much. I main Lifeweaver and think of pansexuality as bisexuality for people who want to feel more special about it, but, obviously, not all players are like me.

I'm pretty sure all the Arabic theocracies in the Middle East also care way more about sexuality in games (and in every other aspect of life) than us, Westerners. We Westerners are probably the only reason why companies like Blizzard include sexual minorities in their games.
