I have to imagine many wow devs feel this way as well. Valentine Powell Kenneth Huang @kenandstuff · 30 sep. I have to imagine many wow devs feel this way as well. Kim Acuff Steiner @valentine_irl @ScarizardPlays @EmberFirehair As a developer on the WoW team, when I see people say “no one was asking for this," that feels odd to me, because yes, someone did, we as devs asked for it. If you support the devs of games, please be aware that we also have opinions on inclusion in our games. please read. been seeing a lot of (frankly upsetting) comments from people who follow me / 'support devs' about some of the updates to in-game content being a 'smokescreen for distract from bigger issues' when really... it's being led from within, by people who care, a I love this. Honestly, I love ALL the changes. Many of them I remember writing down in a list of "if I could just change things that bugged me and made feel excluded/creeped out/gross over the years, it would be these." J-IRA @HamletEJ · 30 sep. Als antwoord op @ScarizardPlays Yeah I mean I avoid even talking about it here, but it has been just uncomfortable lately seeing it from people who I would generally expect to support pro-inclusivity changes J-IRA @HamletEJ · 30 sep.

I feel both sides but the reason I'm still not happy is that they're focusing on A message from the World of Warcraft Team: IRA @HamletEJ A message from the World of Warcraft Team: worldofwarcraft.com/news/23730894/ something that isn't in real life. The walk out was about the treatment of employees, not us. I feel like the lawsuits are being made about us and not the people suffering at the work place Als antwoord op @kenandstuff worldofwarcraft.com/news/23730894/ Wowhead O @Wowhead - 30 sep. I don't want to (counterproductively) quote them, but someone also pointed out today that our whole twitter life lately has been wanting to avoid the attention of wow twitter (even more so than usual), which conflicts with wanting to talk about any of this Today's #Shadowlands Patch 9.1.5 PTR build includes more inclusionary updates to older parts of the game, updating several female-only enemy types in Karazhan to include male versions with new or gender neutral names.

"our" dude joined 5 Als antwoord op @ScarizardPlays months ago Kenneth Huang making our [very old] game more welcoming and less insensitive 'because it was 2006' makes it better for everyone, period. I'm really proud to work Cronyism is the practice of partiality in awarding jobs and other advantages to friends or trusted alongside people who take this stuff seriously & put in time to review & wowhead.com/news/female-on. Cronyism - Wikipedia @kenandstuff Als antwoord op @KiraAndrade10 colleagues, especially in politics listen so thoughtfully. it's small now, but very real. The way I see it is that "they" are two completely different groups of people. "They" in charge of company wide policy changes are not the "they" in charge of wow content changes. I agree there needs to be company changes, but that doesn't mean there can't be game changes. 3 63 Cronyism - Wikipedia Cronyism is the practice of partiality in awarding jobs and other advantages to friends or trusted colleagues, especially in politics Kira the Dragon Queen @KiraAndrade10 - 30 sep. The request came from somewhere, though, and in a corporation it's most often than not the top down. Someone has to approve the expenses after all. But either way, I just hope change -does- happen one way or another. A Tip Kenneth Huang @kenandstuff Als antwoord op @KiraAndrade10 I can say with certainty that these changes did not come from requests from the c-suite, these changes came from demands from wow devs.](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/002/221/759/a98.png)
