Team Fortress 2
Why Does Only Demoman Have One Eye in TF2?
Demoman is the only class with marginalised skin tone. Making him have disability can incline certain people to disregard him even further as a character because people in real life with disabilities aren't as represented & popular as common people, so people without such disabilities.

Disability Inclusion[www.worldbank.org].

Why not Scout, Soldier, Pyro, Heavy, Engineer, Medic, Sniper and Spy? Genuinely curious.

1. Not the way demoman does, but engineer cut one of his arms to replace with robo one,

2. Remember that tf2 plays in the 60s, when racism and chauvinism was common.

3, Demo is still , despite his weaknesses still very powerful and versatile class compared to other mercs.

As I see it, it makes him more unique.

Anyway, it's because of lore.

1. Engineer doesn't have marginalised skin origin. It's also an unlock.

2. TF2 was released in 2007, it's a team based shooter made by Valve themselves.

3. His disability doesn't carry over when you play as him.

They could make him unique in other way, why adding something to his character that often seen as bad by the majority?

And you STILL call yourself "The Fountain Of Knowledge"?

It was shown in the comics
What is up with people misreading the title and not reading the body?

And misinterpretation?
Pyro and soldier are already shown to be mentally impaired in differing ways.

We don't know Pyro's skin tone so it doesn't matter (he's a white dude actually it's just bait imo) and Soldier doesn't have marginalised skin tone.

Also, not having an eye is more marginalised than having mental issues.

Honestly just makes you come across as racist for singling out demoman for having a disability when other mercs do as well.
