She's huge and ripped. So yeah, still super weird that her body type is ranked as more "diverse" than Torbjorn's.

It is totally unsurprising to me that Blizzard has decided the solution to the problem of homogeneity in character design is not to hire and listen to women and minorities, but rather to create a system designed to mathematically determine how many Diversity Points a character is worth. I'm truly, honestly shocked they haven't incorporated the blockchain in some capacity.

Blizzard doesn't need a gimmick to sell worthless digital assets for real money. They can put the fictional coins in their own server and people will pay for them.

Are those results self-reported?

Usually they assess machiavellianism with a survey of questions like "if you don't take advantage of other people, they will take advantage of you" and "trusting people is foolish"

Sure it's a well studied trait with established indexes and relationships to things like crime, abuse, and ethics violations, but you feel like it's vague and that's much more important than anything a soft science like social psychology says through experiments and observation.

Or maybe just let some orcs be good and get loving murdered in a war their leadership foisted upon them.

The themes of lotr imply industrial society is to the detriment of goodness, and orcs live in exactly that kind of society that obsesses over production and war, sacrificing connection with nature and individual virtue.
