and "oh god my pelvis fractured" (actual outcome of women attempting to carry the same load as men at the same pace).
The RAF had to pay a lot of money out because of that iirc.

They might play more of the game you play if they weren't so male centric...
Her involvement is that she had an agenda, and her partner is working for Comcept, which allowed her direct access to achieve that.
Now she went from a community manager, to a designer and up pops a female character.
What if Bioware created a peice of fiction about a murderer who raped women and you as the detective went out to find him. Both villain and lead are male, you can bet your ass there would be outrage at the lack of female inclusion. Regardless of if the piece of fiction its based from included a female or not.
My fear is they will hamper fiction through the fear of upsetting the feminists.
Lets be honest female gamers are like sports. Completely pointless and an utter waste of time.
Your timeline is wrong here.
She was appointed as community manager in December 2013:

The developers were already allowing people to vote on the design of the female character in September 2013:

I'm curious as to why you consider having female characters to be "hampering" fiction exactly?
Or are you just that shallow minded that you can't empathise with a character if they don't have a penis?
Did he actually say any of this though?
Yes, if you look at my post, there's a thing called a "Quote". In there you'll find a statement made by another person. They're quite handy so that people can see which statement you're referring to. (In fact, you seem to have gotten the hang of it yourself, see, you've actually quoted me, good work, give yourself a high-five!)
Anyway, inside the "Quote" you'll see the statement that he made about hampering fiction.
Yes, but he didn't simply state female characters = hampering fiction. The twist you made there then allowed you to make your next comment of;
"Or are you just that shallow minded that you can't empathise with a character if they don't have a penis?"
Which was unwarranted, as he never actually said female characters hamper fiction. You are selectively quoting him, and disregarding context.
So no, he didn't actually say what you've suggested.

Having female characters will "hamper" fiction
Can't you read?
You can do that, can't you?
Lets be honest female gamers are like female sports. Completely pointless and an utter waste of time.
Anyway, jokes aside, it was strongly implied, and has been in all of his posts.
Basically the point we are trying to make.
