RPS: You have some interesting alternate outfits for heroes. Roller Derby Nova, especially, caught my eye. On its own, that's totally fine - just a silly, goofy thing. A one- off. But it got me thinking about how often MOBAs tend to hyper-sexualize female characters to a generally preposterous degree - that is to say, make it the norm, not a one-off at all-and StarCraft's own, um, interesting focus choices as of late. How are you planning to approach all of that in Heroes? Browder. Well, I mean, some of these characters, I would argue, are already hyper-sexualized in a sense. I mean, Kerrigan is wearing heels, right? We're not sending a message to anybody. We're just making characters who look cool. Our sensibilities are more comic book than anything else That's sort of where we're at. But I'll take the feedback. I think it's very fair feedback. RPS: I have to add, though, that comics might not be the best point of reference for this sort of thing. I mean, it's a medium that's notorious often in a not-good way - for sexing up female characters and putting them in some fairly gross situations. Browder: We're not running for President. We're not sending a message. No one should look to our game for that. RPS: But it's not even about a message. The goal is to let people have fun in an environment where they can feel awesome without being weirded out or evern objectified. This is a genre about empowerment. Why shouldn't everyone feel empowered? That's what it's about at the end of the day: letting everyone have a fair chance to feel awesome. Browder: Uh-huh. Cool. Totally. PR says we've run over, tells me I have to leave] RPS: Thank you for your time.

KOTAKU" Robzooo > lan Walker 6/03/22 2:53pm "Kimberly, who was prominently teased at the end of yesterday's Street Fighter 6 presentation, will be the series' first playable Black woman" Umm Elena in street fighter 3 is definitely a black woman from Kenya. Then there are some arguements for Pullum Purna and Laura (she is Sean's sister who is canonically afro-brazillian) Reply 2 replies 36 ☆ lan Walker Robzooo 6/03/22 3:11pm "Black" in this instance specifically refers to an African-American woman. believe me, i'm aware of Elena, Laura, and Pullum Purna, but they're Kenyan, Brazilian, and Saudi Arabian respectively. it's different. https://kotaku.com/overwatch-fan-writes- letter-to-jeff-kaplan-about-black-1831576005 Reply 14 replies 12 ☆ 000

Photo: Lisa Marie Segarra / Kotaku The following blog was written by a cat named Milo. According to Milo's owner, Kotaku's own Lisa Marie Segarra, he's a rascal who enjoys cuddling and will cry until you pick him up. His favorite toy is his ball tower and he enjoys watching Criminal Minds with his human mom. Sometimes Milo, being a rascal, will jump on Segarra's keyboard and lay around on it or stand on top of the keys. This is how he sends us, the other staff at Kotaku, messages in Slack. You can always tell a Milo message. It's long, filled with repeated letters, and is usually a fun surprise. For this blog, Milo was able to spend a very long time on the keyboard before getting caught. This message was so long Slack wouldn't even let him send it to us. So instead, it has been turned into a blog for you all to enjoy. Editor's note: This blog is presented mostly as Milo created it.
