As the artist said in the website, the inclusion of such characters are concepts much like how other games were wondering about what race and/or gender they should make their player character. Same could be said for their fantasy MOBA game where you have a woman as a commander of an army and so many others in powerful positions.Д¬omparing TF2 to Overwatch or today's games (particularly those set in modern day or future, sans Cod WW2) seems a bit silly. This is from a company responsible for a dystopian future game where the inclusion of women in combative roles make sense given the tone, story, and setting. The mercs are given orders by a commanding woman and the later inclusion of an assistant has been given some more characterization later on, starting with Meet the Director and further in Expiration Date. The arguments I see here are most likely from those who hasn't kept up with TF2's development and its community for the past decade.ДЇrom what I can gather since TF2's initial announcement and its cast lineup, they're based on 50s pop culture stereotypes garnering back to the culture at the time.Д¬alling Valve for being sexist or whathaveyou for not including playable women seems strange given the core aesthetic of the game and its story. I've been following anything Valve news related before TF2 was formally announced at EA Play.

I think you'd just prefer not to think a bit about how a woman could fit into your game. At least for most folks who don't give a shit about letting girls into treehouse, and didn't drink the 50s nostalgia koolaid. You're seriously going to tell a Rosie the Riveter as Engineer wouldn't have worked? That a female spy wouldn't have worked? That Insane Mercy a female German Medic wouldn't have worked? Women played key roles throughout the war as spies. Women worked as camp guards in Germany and as nurses. Women assembled ships and planes and all kinds of other military equipment, for example. If you're comparing it to WWII, lots and lots of women entered the workforce in traditionally male sectors to fill in gaps left by deployed troops. Yeah, women didn't have a whole lot of opportunities but there were always people who broke the mold or opportunities that opened up(PARTICULARLY during wartime). I love how people eat up 1950s propaganda so readily and believe women didn't do anything but stay at home and cook. /r/GamePhysics - Clips of game physics shining and glitchingДesign based on /r/FlatBlue created by /u/creesch./r/gaming4gamers - middle ground between purely-for-fun and more serious subreddits./r/GamingLeaksAndRumours - Leaks and Rumors.Posting unmarked spoilers will result in removal and warning, and posting spoilers with malicious intent will result in a ban.
