Chat Transcript:

7:01 PMSheekago​Hi all

7:01 PMLee Showron​Hey

7:05 PMRerum Trading​2nd like

7:12 PMLyricallyC​Hello, everyone. Oh, this chart thing is nonsenical

7:12 PMLyricallyC​Why??

7:13 PMJared Knisely​lucio, torbjorn, zaria

7:13 PMJared Knisely​torbjorn is straight has a daughter

7:14 PMJared Knisely​he is very cultured by the way

7:14 PMLyricallyC​It's not needed at all. Just make a diverse cast

7:15 PMJared Knisely​torb-yorn

7:16 PMJared Knisely​j has ya sound

7:16 PMAnberye​this was a weird chart to see

7:19 PMLyricallyC​I heard nothing about Call Of Duty: Vanguard. That game came and went

7:20 PMSheekago​Sometimes, Blizzard, sharing is not caring.

7:21 PMaddictedtochaos​This can’t end well.

7:21 PMLyricallyC​Some one ain't telling the truth

7:22 PMScrungle himmingworth​I MADE IT

7:22 PMScrungle himmingworth​WOOO

7:22 PMLyricallyC​Somebody needs to be Phoenix Wright cause the evidence isn't adding up

7:23 PMaddictedtochaos​Activision lying? I’m shocked, SHOCKED I SAY!

7:24 PMScrungle himmingworth​so what are we talking about

7:25 PMScrungle himmingworth​oh god we're talking about that horrible graph

7:27 PMScrungle himmingworth​the chart and them trying to diversify is cringy as hell

7:28 PMScrungle himmingworth​how about WELL WRITTEN CHARACTERS

7:28 PMScrungle himmingworth​its that easy

7:28 PMScrungle himmingworth​no one wants to actually put work into characters anymore

7:30 PMScrungle himmingworth​you can go to lousiana and ask about canjun culture and someone there will go on and on about their culture

7:32 PMSheekago​You have to write what you know. If you try to write for a character that has kids, and you don't have any, it won't feel genuine. Same for different races, genders.

7:33 PMSheekago​That's why they need to hire more diverse people

7:33 PMScrungle himmingworth​whenever I write I always use morrowind as my inspiration

7:33 PMScrungle himmingworth​the sheer lore and just level of detail in morrowind is just. God it plays more like a simulation than an RPG
