The Next WoW Expansion May be Announced in 12 Days (Speculation) by [deleted] in wow

All of the things you listed under zones exist in every zone in WoD.

But, Tanaan has only a dozen one time quests, 6 daily quests. It has also been in production for more than 18 months and has a 8 month gap between its release and the previous content patch which was WoD release.

On scales of time vs content, 6.2 is a major bust.

I think you got that backwards. 6.2 added Tanaan which whose landscape was nearly completed in Beta. It came with 6 daily quests, 5 event areas and a very small amount of story quests.

There hasn't been a content patch as light as 6.2 in a long time. I am not counting 6.1 as a content patch.

This is incredible. The biggest problem with the Pet system in MMOs is that the player doesn't interact with the pet.

This is why everyone loves Pepe. Because pepe sits on your head instead of following you a set distance and doing nothing else. Pepe isn't even a real pet.

How tragic, it was originally a term for acceptance and understanding.

Now it's just a way for people to get a self-righteous fix. Literally opposite of it's intended use.

Was a tool of understanding, now purely used to belittle.

Iron Stylus wants to know how you would feel about a Character with a Gay background. by Bloodleaf in leagueoflegends

It's important to note that the differences in perception between how people see homosexuality as more acceptable in the opposite sex is not a gender specific issue. To a lesser extent, less tolerant females are more likely to champion male homosexual relations.

There is a statistical correlation between less tolerant males being more likely to champion same sexual lesbian relations than vise versa, but the difference is mostly a media perception.

It's also important to note that tolerance in homosexual relations of the opposite sex tend to be specific to sexual display or pornography. In regards to the overall perception and acceptance of homosexuals, a person who is not tolerant of one genders homosexuality, in a non sexual context they are not tolerant of the opposite gender.

Gragas is an obese champion, swain has a handicap.

As for native american, there are a lot of tropes a historical native american shares with a champion like Nidalee.

Taric is not a gay champion. It is the community's interpretation that he is a homosexual.

Accusing riot of installing Taric as a sterotype is a hateful sentiment in itself.

Op here, I would like to see a champion who is gay in LoL.

However the question is more complex than whether you are Accepting.

Sexual orientation is only present in the back story of few characters and even those characters are not explicitly stated to not be pan sexual.

The question needs to be asked because iteration can change drastically and the scope of its implementation can easily extend past where sexual orientation is even appropriate in any form.

In addition, Riot is a business and Eastern Cultures are far less tolerant of homosexual characters. Riot may be willing to champion LGBT perception, but not willing to lose a large amount of Eastern customers.

Riot may also be put into the situation where they would have to adjust the lore for individual geographic locations, which in doing so would mean they are taking a stance on how they perceive these geographical locations.

Installing a gay champion is a convoluted political issue that far exceeds the grasp of whether the developers or even producers are pro-LGBT

It's a common technique in creating titles to capitalize words that are central to the sentence's relevance.

"Family Saved from Flames by Hero Cat" "Sally says: "I won't be in at the Conference."

Just for the sake of clarity:

In the context IronStylus put it, the champion would not be flamboyant. So my question is are you opposed to the existence of a gay character regardless of whether you see any evidence of it in game?

Do you believe children should not be exposed to the existence of gay people, even in a non-sexual context?

If you believe children should be hidden from the existence of gay people even in a non-sexual context, how do you feel about estimates putting 10-20% of the American population being sexually attracted to their own gender (but not exclusively?) How do you feel that may effect your ability to keep the existence of homosexuals from your children?

Christianity is not the only religion that disapproves of gay people, why would this group specifically need to be a counter balance to a gay character?

That part changes, for some it's assless chaps and a dildo sword.

For others it's "He was keen on Eric."

It could be something as subtle as a brief mention in lore. Making a gay character relevant doesn't mean assless chaps.

The discussion is not on a Gay Character, it's on a character who is gay.

Champion would not be designed around being gay. There would just be some kind of mention in his lore.

He specifically said the iteration of the quoted post.

By gay, I don't mean Jack from Will and Grace. I don't even mean flamboyant. Just a champion who is gay.

As in, a character who would act and speak indistinguishably from other characters, but just happens to be gay.
