It's a sedentary industry that rewards long hours spent hunched over a desk, often eating less than healthy (aka most American food court) food, and has less requirements for physical appearance and attractiveness than something like sales or marketing. Is it any surprise that people of both genders in that industry tend to be overweight and out of shape? As long as the actual product (aka game) is good, who cares?
Source: Am in the industry, albeit engineering in general, not game-development.
Back on topic... cats are awesome. And that's the third time in the last week I've seen that Futurama clip and it makes me sad every time. A cat would have just said fuck this and moved on.

A lot of industries rely on sedentary activities and usually it's an individual responsibility to work out and don't stuff your face with garbage all the time, yet there are disproportionately high number of fat chicks in this industry. At least I've noticed that if you are a woman interested in vidya gaems it's more probable you are fat. Maybe nerd chicks are like that in general? Maybe I notice them more because women are comparatively fewer than men in this hobby/industry. Saying "feminism did it" sounds like an easy way out of a more complicated situation. There's probably some connection, though.

You're over thinking this. Americans are just fat. We eat a bunch of fast food and rarely exercise. That's all. It's not limited to videogame jobs.

The one in the middle holding the gun..
I would probably do the red shirt and glasses in front row, and the lady 2nd from the left in the front row.
That's obviously a trans diversity hire, that being said, im still undecided on the gender fluidity of...

Not gamedev per se but in the competitive PC AusCoD scene post 2010 there were a number of girls who played in the top 20 or so teams. A couple were curvy, the others were normal (au8-12) and there was one skinny asian girl. It's weird there were 0 in 2008 and 8-10 by 2013.

The chubby with the sword on the back row is also nice.
Dude, have some standards. Jesus.

I really deeply regret posting that tweet. I just wanted to laugh at the incredible amount of dyed hair, tattoos and other curiosities of the XXIst century.
You're more eager to note that chicks are fat than dudes, it seems. Would you bodyshame MCA, Tim Cain or Brian Heins ? Shame on you.

Americans love themselves some sugar in everything. Even their mustard tastes sweet!
They can take care of themselves pretty well. They're the best choice for someone who wants a pet with limited responsibility attached. Our first cat spent most of her time outside hunting in the woods and would GTFO whenever she had kittens and we tried to keep them in the house. I still don't know how she managed to take them outside, I'm pretty sure we closed the door.

Front row, the 2nd one from the left looks pretty good on the 1st pic.
I believe in both genders taking care of their bodies, but of course being a fat chick and being a fat dude is not the same thing. That said, let any of those women create a PST or a Fallout, and I promise you I 'll fuck her out of gratitude.
Has MCA let himself go?

The problem is not that they are game developers, problem is that they are Americans. Americans feast upon garbage.

A lot of fat in one picture. Only fuckable one for me is the gypsy on the upper right corner,only when i am dead drunk that is. Another one is the milf with the glasses on the front row left of the fat one with the sword.

More like 2000kg, i am 110 kg and look like half the size of half the people in this picture.
Nope. They are women, they are shorter and the height influence weight a lot.
An obese dwarf weight is less than a skinny giant.

Codex is only marginally about RPG's.
This is Codex. What did you expect to happen? Most of the people here probably haven't gotten laid in a decade without paying someone for it.
The same thing happened last year and I believe the year before that when Obsidian had a women's day picture released. No wonder the staff willing to pose in such picture diminishes every year.
