What's the connection between Blizzard and Lust?
A "boys club" scandal a couple years ago where the male higher-ups only hired women who would tolerate being sexually abused. Some ex-employees described it as "company culture" that propagated for a decade or more. There was an investigation after some women spoke out that led to a lawsuit, several top level managers being fired, and a couple CEOs being scrutinized really hard.
All of this is off the top of my head and maybe somewhat inaccurate, but that's the gist of it.
Edit: Here's an article for you
Multiple sexual harassment claims and lawsuits, including incidents of stolen breast milk.
You can't make this shit up.

Maybe like Overwatch and sexualized characters
