Pointless paragraph can be ignored in this article:

It remains unclear if these changes, while minor, are being made to remove any potential examples of sexual content in their games due to the nature of the California lawsuit against the company – which alleges that Blizzard discriminated against female employees and that female employees make up only 20% of staff.

NicheGamer is one of those sites that continues to feed into Leftist talking points to avoid being labeled "Right-wing". So you'll constantly find excuses, equivocation and deflections for the real reason behind the censorship.

They'll also do their bit to promote typical Leftist talking points to show that they're just woke enough to avoid being kicked out of Google's good graces, or have their advertising revenue axed.

They aren't as bad as TechRaptor, who are basically just a mouth piece for the Left at this point, practically indistinguishable from every other propaganda site. Though, to be fair, TechRaptor isn't as bad as Polygon or Kotaku... yet.

Unfortunately there aren't many gaming sites out there worth watching. Gematsu is completely woke, and the rest are usually mainstream garbage.

SankakuComplex occasionally comes out with interesting news, which is nice, but I wish there were others. I used to avoid NicheGamer, but given how bad everything is, I tolerate it.

This news came out on SC about 5 hours after my post, btw - https://www.sankakucomplex.com/2021/09/18/world-of-warcraft-censors-sexy-paintings-following-news-of-lawsuit/

Yeah Sankaku Complex seems to be the only site these days that honestly covers censorship news and all of the regressive propaganda plaguing the media industry.

Literally objectified the chestfeeder of the right.

I guess an evil spell turned her into a bowl of fruits.

Pedocrats can't handle sexualized content unless it involves children.

Ah yes Ravenholdt. A place people totally still went to and paid attention to wall accessories. This was totally a major priority.
