[QUOTE="Panda-s1, post: 8030118, member: 59554"] idk I feel it goes well beyond appealing to young people and parents. actually the daemonettes and Slaanesh themself would be a good example of this. like when they came up with Slaanesh in the 80's having a god who was both male and female at the same time was like "whoa how mysterious and alien! this god has and enjoys all the holes how lustful o:" same thing with the daemonettes like "hey there young adolescent man who's in our target demographic look at this sexy demon woman isn't she hot but maybe she's actually A MAN??? how sinful! o:" nowadays it's like "oh hey gender non-conforming and non-binary people are real and want respect, uh...." I don't think this means we have to do away with Slaanesh, at their core they're about hedonism which is still an actual problem. I also can't remember if Slaanesh is the only gender non-conforming entity in Warhammer, if they are that's a serious issue they should address, but emphasizing other characters like that who aren't literal demons can be a positive thing. hell the production of plastic sisters is a huge step forward, like it went from a goddamn meme to actually making them accessible to players who don't have hundreds of dollars to spend on a large number of pewter models. I'd look into getting back in, but I know better, but at least I appreciate a company with a reputation as bad as GW actually making an honest effort to address these issues. [/QUOTE]
