It is both and many other inefficiencies.
We have seen crazy SJW now wasting dev time with their hissy drama about no boobs on female characters!
Yeah, the story is basically about two groups of SJWs arguing over which portrayal of Rivet would be the most "female empowering".
From the Reddit post:
The lead writer was a woman. The lead character TD was a trans person who, at the time, had not transitioned.
Everyone else in the discussion was a white cis male.
At the time the argument occurred, there were two women and one female-presenting trans person on the team. That trans person had lived their life up to that point as a woman, and had the lived experience thereof.
Everyone else on the 20+ person team was a man.
More from the author:
...Fellow men, we're all part of the problem. As a white man in the game industry, I enjoy a ton of privilege, and that also makes me part of the system that causes the issues we see at places like Blizzard.
We all share responsibility.
But just because we're part of the problem doesn't mean we can't take action to remedy it. A systemic problem can be changed by people in the system changing how they behave.
We can help fix the system by making changes in how we behave.
You're in the system. You're part of it whether or not you want to be.
Change how you act, react, and how you move forward.
That's how you help. Change yourself to help fix the problem.
Call out bad behavior. Give people room. Listen.
Also, for the love of god, don't brand yourself as "one of the good ones."
You're not. I'm not...
The "SJWs are making our games bad" is some of the most severe case of brain worms I've seen in this scene lol.
SJWs are making our games. Whether that's bad or not is a decision the player makes.
