If Overwatch was still relevant I'm sure this would be big news.

I wonder how long it will take for people to say its offensive to Irish people to have all the other characters calling him a Mick.

I mean, come on. This is a rename you have to abide by. Would you want to play the Super Cuomo Bros.?

It's discomforting to play as a character named after a legit creep unless you're a creep or an edgelord. They made the right decision.

What a dumbass take. 99% people had no idea he was named after anyone.

This is just a publicity stunt to divert from news of them shredding documents.

But you seem like a gullible person.

Wouldn't it be more fitting for the courts to strip that dev of his name?

If anything this just remind everyone of Jesse Mcree every time they turn this game on.
"Remember when he was Mcree?"

As asmongold the blizzard hater said, this is stupid because Mcree is his own defined character.
Removing WoW npcs made sense because they where just place holders for those devs.

No, they shouldnt have messed with it.

Its not like changing his name undoes all their Bill Cosby activities anyway.

Make a real change, not this meaningless nonsense.

Its meaningless in that it doesnt solve the issue this whole thing stems from.

They are accused of some serious shitand they think changing the name of a fictional character is the answer?

My point is it all seems rather tone deaf and pointless. Seems like theyre trying to score fake PR points while avoiding what they could be doing to combat the actual problems in their workplace.
