oh yeah that's another one that would be good to have
Who played Chris Redfield in RE8?
oh god I'd love him
Jeff Schine
prozd voicing someone would be funny af but no shot it'd ever happen
not a fan of his low voice
his high voice is funny af though
maybe a new animal character
ooh he could be Casino
TRUE
Tom Kenny voicing a character would feel cool
the green one
He can do many voices
now THAT'S out of their budget
DUDE HE VOICED CHARACTERS IN CLASH A RAMA
HE'D DO ANYTHING
What did they voice?
REAL
king LOOKS like the type of mf to be voiced by prozd
that's ProZD's real name
i dont think itd be a good idea to add more meka or kirikos gang as characters
rather have something different
yeah anythings fine that scenario
shooting star... 2!
I just think he's got the perfect smug voice for it
i think they said thered be new cinemayics in s7 right
im surprised theres no flamethrower character yet
I think so?
yeah, they said more cinematics would be coming "in season 7 and beyond"
theyre also missing a lock on character for damage
moira and winston exist but none for damage
Symmetra ow1 LOL
Moira doesn't lock on
it's just the animation
the actual weapon has a hitbox similar to Symm/Zarya's beam
just means we need more lock on
eh
people don't like lock-on damage
it doesn't feel good to fight against
that's why Symm got changed
Their damage would have to be really low for people to not complain about it ☠️
i miss old sym
And even then
idk why it upset people
Because people don’t like playing against a character that genuinely does not require aim
we're getting off topic
new character is tank right?
Like next season’s? Cause illari is a support
season 8's hero will be a tank, yes
thats a big boy
could be Mauga, could be someone new
or someone from concept art
Overwatch (despite having lore and such)
Is made to represent different types of cultures throughout the game, Illari, being the new hero; represents Peruvians.
And very soon, Mauga probably; for Samoans.
I don't think their gonna add anyone of a certain faction or ethnicity again for a while- we got another Japanese and Austrilian character at the start of the game, the possibilities of that happening again would be a long darn time
unless they're important to the story
their going to probably make more new heroes instead of people from certain factions
yeah
Or that
Wdym by that
I'm sitting here waiting on another arabic character who isn't the usual egyptian
like maybe Saudi
are they missing an italian character?
Yeah, but that could be Maximillion (as a hero)
But he fulfills that spot anyway in game or not
its like fighting game rosters kinda
no portuguese character either
or spanish
no greek
Maximillien is based out of Monaco, not Italy
unless you're talking about someone from spain
latin americans are sombra illari i think
correct
illari real recent
I'd like a hero from Spain
I mean, Lucio speaks Brazilian Portuguese if you’re okay with just the language aspect being there
dont think theyll go back there soon
would we consider Lucio because he's from Brazil and speaks it?
Yeah
.
only big european countries off top my head are portugal spain italy greece
I’m ngl I don’t rlly like the gamer girl archetype given to Korean characters in games
I'm tired of video games always using Egyptians, people gotta know there's other different versions of Arabs out there.
Rashid was a good rep
Pharah is Egyptian-Canadian, right?
Yeah
I'd like to see a male hero from the middle east who is good-aligned
we don't often get good guys from there
bro please 🙏
did they mention middle east in ow universe?
Nope
it's still a map in the game
there's also Hamid Faisal, who is an archaeologist that Ana knows
Egypt is just seen to be with the middle east despite being part of Africa to most people, it gets confusing
I mean, it does show up as being part of the Middle East in Google 😭
like something out of the movie troy lol
Petra is in Jordan, iirc
ah
ooh Moroccan would be cool
Just seems to be a very general term that changes(the countries included in it) with time
doomfist and orisa are african right
Yep
from where tho
Doomfist I'd assume is nigerian
numbani isnt real
Orisa idk
ah I was right
they just established a city there
This may seem like a stupid idea by me-
I sorta want Efi in the game, using her own sorta mech to fight
As a tank
I'm only taking some logic from the fact they made a child fight in mortal kombat x
And d.va was canoncially 16 before they changed it for certain reasons
incorrect
omnics were mass produced slave robots that got a virus to kill humans then got another virus to think for themselves right?
I was told by a friend lmao
your friend was wrong
there were several concepts for a young mech pilot hero before they settled on D.Va, some of those were younger
but D.Va herself was always an adult
I remember the many times people were begging for Overlord as a support instead of Illari
makes me laugh
how'd you make a MECH HERO into a support?
whos overlord
That'd be tankier than Brigitte
yeah that would be a tough one
D.va's friend and possible love interest?
Honestly, why not
cant imagine support with big hitbox
Could be time to get a support with a larger hitbox
I want a character who simply holds a giant machine gun and just rattles through everyone
Lifeweaver and Ramattra’s base models are already similar ish in size
as a Tank
so heavy?
roadhog fullhog 24/7
I'd imagine like 100 Ammo, but little damage
is there a melee dps?
think torb has hammer
maybe new lore dps hero after tank will be melee
you got rein and brig
maybe another crusader with huge sword
melee heroes in a shooter are a bad idea
out of the maps in the game
which ones are missing characters?
from their respective zones
something to look into
kinda like how ashe and cassidy from that push map
Circuit Royal, Havana, Rialto, Blizzard World, Hollywood, Midtown, Ilios, Lijiang Tower, Colosseo, Paraiso
havana, i guess?
i woulda thought thats max guys map but lore said hes french
midtown too i think
lol
Circuit Royal has Maximilien's casino on it
ilios, collosseo, esperanca
I sometimes feel like
maybe we should get a cinematic on Siberen de Kuiper's life before Talon-
In an interaction in April, apparently him and Angela had a history together
So suppose we could add more lore to Angela in that same cinematic as well?
is blizz world canon?
Doesn't seem to be
It's just a map inspired by World of Warcraft turned into a theme park
it's a theme park based around Blizzard games
for those that spent the time reading comics and books
is there a character in there mentioned you think can be added later on
Lynx-Seventeen
whats the background for them?
id love a sigma cinematic
lore wise bro has got so little
does sigma have a backstory? his short was confusing
Her
barely made sense to me
he was an astrophysicist trying to harness the power of a black hole
space related
It went wrong I assume
his experiment backfired, creating a tiny black hole that shattered his mind and gave him gravity powers that he couldn't control
Is he completely insane
he knew dr harold winston, and therefore he knew winton the monkey as a baby
he was quarantined in a government facility for his own safety and then Talon stole him out
its all connected
so its not out of the question that he has at least heard of hammond
then
no. he seems like just a polite old man from his interactions
maybr a little eccentric
we dont know a whole lot about what talon's been doign with him aftrr they took him out of the asylum
it's an auditory hallucination caused by his brain damage
now thats depressing
that list you posted a while back
of who killed humans before
why didnt tracer kill widow
because Tracer is a good person
she doesnt seem lile the killing type
she doesn't kill unless necessary
yes
or is the pvp map just not canon
im mostly wondering why so many omnics have hair
like, none of the playable ones have hair. orisa and ram have wires as "hair" but the ones in the pve have actual hair
they don't have real hair
the games themselves arent canon but many of the maps are
it's metal or plastic made to look like hair
or all, even
i get that, but why is it so realostic compared to just Wires 😭
Omnic fashion
some copy humans
kinda creepy
robots dont feel cold
why are they wearing sweaters
kinda strange
same reason genji put a jacket on ig
because they work with humans, and humans are uncomfortable around nudity
even robot nudity
genji reminds me too much of grey fox and raiden
canon that robots have dicks?
no
style i suppose
Yeah the moment he truly accepted for what he is, Genji felt naked
a lot do
i wouldnt say "most"
but a lot also accept omnics
mass extinction would be hard to forget in what is it
20 years ago or something
lol
a lot of people probably alive then that experienced possible extinction event then
yep
im surprised rein is all buddy buddy with bastion in the new mission
he isn't at the beginning
didnt his mentor get gunned down by orisa prototypes or something
Rein attacks him in the opening cutscene
and bastion units
Rein almost killed a civilian omnic though
Rein has a hard time understanding that omnics are alive
rein probably is the most realistic character then
they're not "just machines"
i dont think anyone irl will think otherwise
In the Toronto mission, he tried yanking out the mind control device on an omnic hoping to help him— unfortunately it was horrible to watch
do we know what on earth happened to rein that made him resign from ow
yeah thatd be nice to know
its mentioned in his file but the Detail is encrypted
he doesnt seem like someone that takes no for an answer
also is cassidy mccree still or was that his real name or a nickname or is that name just completely gone now?
the Iris gives him powers
Jesus Christ I can’t find the Cole Cassidy command 😭
Omnics suppress any resistance, spreading darkness across the globe, while the #overwatch team clings to hope in the form of one unique individual.
All three parts of GENESIS, an Overwatch Anime Short are NOW LIVE!
GENESIS Part One: Dawn https://youtu.be/PIYMn8eDskg
GENESIS Part Two: Innocence https://youtu.be/wC0vBOpFLFQ
GENESIS Part Three: R...
!!whycassidy
McCree was originally named after a Blizzard employee named Jesse McCree, because he had a cool sounding name. Blizzard no longer associates with that employee due to harassment in the workplace, so they changed the hero's name. Blizzard also committed to not naming in-game characters after staffers anymore.
you can see the creation of the Iris here
The iris is a living thing right
kinda
Aurora is the iris
strange how its not in the game though
most of the lore isn't in the game
that's why I keep a list
Guys... Is Zen getting kidnapped by Sombra and Widow?!
so theres multiple god programs
Because they were hunting him .... Maybe to take him to RAMATTRA?!
anubis went rogue and decided to kill off humanity
and aurora became the iris?
what happened to anubis then?
no mention of the other god programs either
wait but can someone theorise with me about the ending scene?!
most likely yes
kinda strange they kept anubis alive
seems a little sus
yeah... But what if Anubis takes form like an omnic or something?!
or they wanted to study it and figure out why it went rogue
strange how the god programs stopped all traffic to avoid child dying
that level of control is insane
it almost broke containment in the comic "Mission Statement"
but Pharah's team stopped it
oh ...
I really got chills when Zen was feeling the evil behind him...
It's like he knew his brother is associated with Talon
mondatta got killed by talon
and ramattra now works with talon
must have not cared about his mentor that much
Ramattra didn't like Mondatta
Mondatta spoke out against Null Sector after the King's Row Uprising
did rammatra create null sector?
yes
Wait but Ram does like zen, right?! What if Zen talks ram out of his crazyness?!
but he mustve liked the guy if he followed him for years in that temple where auroras iris spirit is
he called zenyatta his brother too
when zen does his ult
is he summoning auroras spirit or something
Yeah... but after Ram saw the so called evil in humans refusing to live alongside omnics... He turned and went rogue but still kept himself covered up from Mondatta... Though Zen was actually suspecting Ram of something...
He might be or just Aurora's spirit lives in Zen
Zen's ult isn't canon
Oh
im surprised humans forgive and forget omnics that easily
they can get hit by that virus and itll repeat their history
rammatra is just speeding up their extinction
Bob seems so nice, ashe on the other hand...
closest thing to a virus for humans would probably be brainwashing or a cult
and most people could see those coming from a mile away
omnics just seem too dangerous to be left alive
Also I have a question: how did Zarya join Overwatch?!
Cassidy recruited her
Oh I didn't know
read the comic "New Blood"
I only started playing with the OW2 launch
she gets recruited in issue #3
Deffo will
Definitely not a good person but she’s a lot more tamed than most.
I don’t think he’s that bad at all. He is a butler I think, he just likes obeying orders.
Anyways I have a question, does Talon have anything to do with the Null Sector Invasion? I don’t think I’ve seen anything related to it ever since Doomfist and Ramattra made an alliance.
In all honesty, the update is top notch on lore stuff... but it's too expensive
do you normally buy the BP?
Yes
I buy it but right now I am not financially stable
And in my country... 15$ is 5 times more expensive than the number 15
It's 75 RON
Okay these texts messages between the Overwatch members in the PvE thing are actually making my night
i know its just 3 missions and some lore but im so over the moon with this release
can sentient omnics not believe in the iris
because the king's row omnics strike as the kind to not be religious to me
i'd also like to know how omnic sentience spread after the initial start with aurora whatever her name was
we finally got freakin story mode, about damn time fr
would’ve been better as a movie or netflix series tho
cliffhanger was hype tho, when does the next bundle of missions drop
Next year
whats the lore of illari?
Unless Blizzard retracts that statement and makes it this year
ik shes the last child of the sun or whatever
She’s the soul survivor of a warrior group who infuse their bodies with solar energy
did one of her parents die like every single character in apex
She is the cause of their deaths and has left Peru, haunted by her own actions
We don’t know much else about her beyond this
oh
This is Illari’s story so far
Not gone lie, I’m not sure where she sits in the story. At least with Kiriko n Life Weaver, they have connections to other heroes
how often do they plan to drop missions? once a year?
Yea... how did she join OW automatically bc it does say anything abt them builiding a relationship of any knid
Ngl for some reason i feel like Mei would get along with her
But there's no voice interatction with anyone on her
They haven’t said. They only said a month prior that the next set of Story Missions wouldn’t be released until 2024
They could potentially retract this statement and actually release the next 3 sooner, but I wouldn’t hold my breath
what if iris shut down bastion on purpose
That doesn’t make any sense
cuz iris knew bastio was like happy and shit
You’re just shitposting now
yes
genji carried the entire team in the zero hour thing
I don’t mind waiting for another set of story missions. Besides, I can understand why
The only other story mission we saw was Overwatch rescuing Zenyatta from Talon
So besides that, we won’t find out what the other missions are until it comes time to release them
honestly I only see them doing a similar thing (3 mission release) about once a year
Im pretty sure they the next batch will take a bit longer because they want time for feedback and then they’ll go back to seasonly releases for the rest of the campaign
But how many missions they’ve made since 2019 ?
That’s the question too
maybe it'll be better but realistically that's what I think is going to happen coming from my experience with 1 archives mission a year at best
Idk, seems like they at least worked on Toronto and Gothenberg at the same time
the classic 2-part trilogy
and they made Rio obviously prior to Blizzcon 2019 to test the waters and drum up hype
keep in mind that between 2019 and now there was a pandemic, OWL taking away resources from the game, the huge blizzard scandal and lawsuit, related and unrelated to that a massive turnover in talent
so we can hope none of that happens again and it doesn't take another 4 years for 3 missions lol
Zen vs talon confirmed bro gonna clap them
wtf is illari
Would y’all say that Sigma knew Moira before she turned into evil scientist lass
We dont know, no origin story
Widowmaker was talking to Zen in the monetary not someone else
Zen is gonna be on Ram’s side
We do know, she is from a clan of people with sun powers and she had the greatest sun powers potential but when it was time to activate the sun powers she accidentally killed all the other sun people. Now she lives alone and depressed
I’ve been off the Internet for the past 3 weeks so if someone could give me a quick summary of what happened since then that would be very helpful!
I wounder when this hero will come to overwatch https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1139529492616978513/1139534212714741880/image.png
So do you know her name then
i didnt read her name but illari probs
thats soundquake, i really want him but we havent like gotten anything on him in a longgggggggg while
that'd be pretty cool but also idk
zen does sorta want peace
I've seen people have been calling him Big Red, it's a shame he didn't make it
Wildebeest
I’ve been off the Internet for the past 3 weeks so if someone could give me a quick summary of what happened since then that would be very helpful!
Moira is quite a big (and controversial) name in the science community so probably, not sure if she was aware of him
He may in the future
could doomfist be married or is there lore suggesting the contrary
Heya, I found 3 of the 5 lore interactions, have you guys found all of them yet?
Nvm I found the last 2
Torb, reaper, and obvs widow are the only ones to confirmed to be married at some point I’m pretty sure
Idk if ana was married to pharah’s dad
It’s implied they were married in bastet
I’ve been off the Internet for the past 3 weeks so if someone could give me a quick summary of what happened since then that would be very helpful!
You've already said that
Nah cuz zen is packing out widow and sombra easily WHAT THEY THINK THEY GONNA DO TO THE GOAT
That’s a free 2v1 for him
Does anyone else have problems getting teammates on the invasion missions? (Xbox series s)
Noones answering in general
Interested where it’s gonna go tbh
What kind of problems
Moira said she hasn’t experimented in omnics yet 😀
Well to start with, I could complete the first two no problem but at the end ow said it needs a server update and since then I can’t get a normal player on any difficulty
I feel like doom asked them to pick him up to blackmail ramm maybe
But genji defo gonna save his boi
Everything else works
Texted message zen “lol told you so”
genji would solo talon to save zen ong
Doubt it
Oh that’s strange, I had the server update thing too but I can still get players. Probably just a bug since it is still only 24 hours since pve release
I'm more interested in wether or not he knows tracer, a human, was doing her best to save him
there needs to be a skin for zen where he’s in his monk robes
I feel like knowing that would make him question some things
agreed
I mean a human killed him so I doubt he would care lol
yeah, a human that kills other humans
feel like if he knew someone as pure as tracer was the one tryna save him itd be different
Isn’t he technically wearing the bottom half of them in his default already
not majorly different, but have him questioning
so sad to me that mondatta referenced humans as his brothers and sisters and they did him dirty
yeah but i wanna see the top too
:/, well that’s $15 down the drain then, I was so hyped for the pve missions since the first uprising event and this is what I get. If it doesn’t work in a few days I’ll let Blizzard know the problem. Also I haven’t seen anyone on reddit complaining about this.
If I was Rammatra and had a hatred for humans, I think my anger for a human killing an omnivore who was close to me would overthrow the fact that a human tried to save him and failed 🤷
Omnic* lol
tbf it was talon
most humans were accepting him
if it wasnt for widow things coulda be a lot different
The bad outweighed the good as far as that went
Anyone wanna play
to get london of all places to slowly accept omnics? that woulda been big
I Wonder what Rammatra thinks of Numbani where omnics and human live happily
i also thought rein and bastions interaction was sad
because he talks about the friends he lost to his kind
orisa vs ramm would be interesting
and torbjorn brushes it off
That interaction was so cool for rein’s character
Yeah but Torb understands why Bastion did that. It wasn’t his fault
Shows that he’s a dude who kinda lives in the past and he has slight ptsd
tho im happy he started becoming accepting, probably mostly due to seeing him fight to help protect his family
Orisa would beat him
sure it was a long time ago but i think having to remember the war and the people who fought with you would still shake him up today
and torbjorn acts like he needs to get over it
Yeah but Bastion also lost a lot of his “friends” during that. He wasn’t sentient at the time. He realized afterwards and chose a different path
probably because torb knows rein very personally, and that the best way to deal with it is to get him to fight alongside bastion
Not to mention Torb 100% lost his friends too. He knows that he needs to move on from that.
still waiting for the 4th mission where bastion is sent home dismantled by rein
for someone as protective as rein, seeing bastion fighting to protect him, torb, and especially brigitte, that woulda been much better than trying to coast him into it slowly
that’s true
i told my friend during that cutscene that i liked how bastions hat goes backwards when he’s in turret form
it’s like that’s him being fight ready
and he’s showing it
not to mention you can tell bastion is holding on to the very last second before even starting to whirl up his turret, he wanted to avoid hurting rein in anyway possible
so overall, torbs actions were valid
fighting for efi??? 100%
Bit disappointed that in the cutscenes, dva, pharah, Zarya and bap all only had one line each lol
I KNOWWWWWW
gimme more pharah >:c
I Need Bap to meet up with talon again
I feel like pharah and d'va would get on fairly well since they're both flying types
Tracer too technically
Pilot gals
Need to see Ana so bad tbh
YESSSSS
I want an angsty moment between her and pharah
You’ll be waiting for a while, apparently it takes a whole year to make three missions
ana mother redemption arc⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️
Fr fr
Cass Said that Jack is off chasing ghosts and I wonder what that means
WHAT
So next ones will be next year
Pretty sure it’s because he faked his death?
talon most likely
Not caught up on his lore
reaper
Ye but he’s off doing vigilante stuff now
Yeah that’s true
Jacks trying to track down the conspiracy that took Overwatch down
I’m sure he’s too busy living in the past
pharah getting into an argument with her and storming off being chased by tracer and d'va
Need
We still don’t know what caused the Swiss hq to explode
i saw someone say that the enigma (john cena LMAO) could be the person that sombra was spotted by!?!?
tracer would defo be the best person to vent to end of
could this be true
God I hope not
probably reaper tbh
I don’t think he’s an actual person in lore
Would also love another genji and hanzo one
Just a promotional thing
and kiriko
yeah no it’d be the enigma as a character not john cena
But like how and why tho
i think he’s real
fight with 76, got out of hand
Oh my god i always forget that she’s actually in the lore 😭
Moira defo would have instigated I think
WOWWWWW that's mean she's like a main thing in their lore lmao
Needs to be cleared up cause her spot in the lore so far doesn’t make sense
don't think moira was part of it
moira would be on the sidelines of the fight like “my creation, are you going to let him talk to you like that”
“me personally”
I feel like Moira was in contact with talon before gabe was and May have helped him join in
her mom trained them all, only thing that doesn't make much sense is kirikos age
Yeah because isn’t she supposed to be in her early twenties?
And genji is late thirties
Speaking of Moira
Gabe just walking towards Jack like "boy lemme tell you smthn"
We need more about oasis and her being a full on minister there
Does that make oasis a semi talon base?
tbh i never really hear minister be used irl so what is that
we need more about pharah in particular, considering she's guarding an important AI research facility
Position in government
Moira is the minister of genetics
So real
youd think that would be an important target for ns
Would love more Pharah
isn’t she defending anubis?
I love her so much istg
I mean anubis might be there tbf
i think that’s what it says in one of her skins
It is an AI research facility so
and that her team prevented it from escaping
but wait
does that mean like
the exact same program from the first war is still active they just keep it from getting out of control
“Hey guys, we’re fighting Null Sector, a group of robots hellbent on creating mass destruction like they did 30 years ago. Helix has been guarding Anubis, the cause of said destruction. Maybe we can find answers there?” “Damn that’s crazy, y’all come check out the sunset in Gothenburg tho”
exactly
Y'all we're dumb
Does Rammatra know about Anubis
If I was a robo terrorist, I’d be going there hella fast
since null sector is already like adding those weird helmet things to omnics and making them unconscious, (which is the same as when they were under anubis, right?) wouldn’t that be a BIG poi for rammatra?
She works for a private security firm, that means they get hired to protect different places
That might be something he’s already using/planning on using
So she most likely was station at the temple at one point as to protect anubis
Still tho, pharah can still tell the information to the Overwatch team lol
which would surely mean there was a threat to anubis
which would surely be a good mission
I didn't say she couldnt 😭😭😭
How long ago did the omnic uprising start and how long did it last for?
Bap providing talon intel, pharah providing Anubis intel, the interactions are right there lol
It's mentioned that there was a meeting between her and ana so
30 years ago
No idea how long it lasted
Was the Uprising mission before Aurora gave her life?
after I think
yes
After
he asks pharah about it
It happened cuz she did it
So right now it’s the 2nd time Null Sector is attacking right
Omnic crisis > Overwatch strike team > Aurora sacrifice > Overwatch organisation > null sector formed > uprising mission
course they are, tracer is obviously the calvary 🙄
LMFAO
Ramm speaks to pharah huh??
It’s just a voiceline interaction
Oh
Again, not canon
Catfished me
Would be funny if they were canon I love some of those interactions
How close together was Retribution and Storm Calling?
You’re cheating on me?😞
Get off of my phone
Retribution was 8 years ago, I have no idea when storm calling was but it’s defo super recent because it’s after the recall I think
No wait
It was when Overwatch was still active
Pretty sure there’s a pinned message of all the events in order with the cinematics
Was the Recall years ago or months ago
The thoughts are real but the interactions are not lol
i wanna know who brigitte is going out with
It’s me btw
tracer needs to tell us
GET LOST
no me
LMFAO
brigitte mine
You cheating on your wife, bro?
her new skin got me acting up
I don’t like it tbh
Im married to them all 🙏
Fair
WHATTTT
I love the voiceline interactions Brigitte has with Hanzo and Lucio
Because she’s an artist but she’s embarrassed about her work 😭
I’m rizzing up every Illari main as Bap fr 🫦 support Duo couple
I love when its all girls and j queen is like ALRIGHT LADIES LETS SHOW THE BOYS HOW ITS DONE
love junker so much istg
Love this line
@rose stirrup
I want her so bad
i'll fight the entirety of overwatch to claim queen
Oh my god
istg
The game model creators did not add her muscles 😭‼️
That’s why I don’t fr fr
Months ago i think
especially her metal skin from couple seasons ago 😩😩😩😩
Anyways, something something lore only please don’t go off topic 🫡

Oh my fod that one was so good
So excited for more Zenyatta lore
I WANT MORE FAREEHA LORE
Executioner
Lvoe her and all
black metal
i love her new omnic skin
got me out here acting like "vipers on station, your journey ends here pilot"
Y’all think symmetra might help out zen since they’re buddies now
I don’t think so tbh
Damn you saying genji and zen ain’t buddies 😭
100% it’s mentor student
You saying Zen says all those jokes and they ain’t homies
They’re close but I wouldn’t consider them like
Mentor student 😔😔
Yah
You can be friends with a mentor
they defo are
Especially with one who is like 15 years younger than you lol
I just feel as if it’s a completely different dynamic
Nahhh zen defo jokes around with Genji, that’s a friend thingy there
I cant see Zen as the joking type
Genji was alone and angry after ow disbanded, it’s sad to think he wouldn’t consider zen as his friend
I know voice lines aren’t canon but a lot of them are based on personality and he does make a few jokes to genji
Have you heard any of Zen’s interactions? He always messes with people
“Your focus lacks focus, master” “YOUR focus lacks focus”
They’re not considered canon
Fr
I just can’t see it
Yeah but they demonstrate the character’s personalities. It’s why they exist
He's one of those people who aren't serious unless necessary
Bro gives out like 5 different answers to when someone asks what he did before the crisis lol
https://youtu.be/LBI_uHJD-Xo
I'm a bit confused, did she accidentally kill all her own people?
Get to know Illari ☀️
Her whole life was dedicated to becoming a Child of the Sun. Now, she’s the only one left.

Tw...
I think they should add more lore accurate into it
Ye
Her and Hanzo NEED to have interactions together, two depressed peeps trying to redeem themselves after hurting loved ones
||So from what the story told me. They all think Gabriel is dead except Jack.||
Ye
Ana knows too
Also ig reinhardt didnt know about bastion
They meet in invasion
that would be nice
no wonder her voice lines are Like That 😭
Ik thats what im saying
The 3rd mission. Reinhardt found out about him
By far my favorite cutscene has to be the zenyatta one
Her voiceline with Mei 😭😭😭
Illari's destruction of her friends wasn't intentional I think
Didn't Hanzo straight up murder Genji?
Hay lore guys, any clue what illari's deal is. From the voice lines she knows moira and has been experiment on but... what elce
she wiped out her own civilization? what the hell
She. . . What?
some ceremony went wrong and she basically become oppenheimer and blew pretty much all her people up
she was more powerful than they thought - something went wrong with the threading ritual, BOOM
not her fault
strongest ow character
nobody even comes close
and she doesn't understand why it happened so she's on a hanzo journey kinda thing
she does have the power of the sun so
||Never thought ill see the day that zenyatta stands for a long period of time other than an emote.||
Spoiler maaan
You forget Sigma can make black holes..?
zarya also
Only with her gun tbf
the "black holes" that zarya and sig are small scale
this chick's a solar powered mini-nuke
black holes > nuke
Sigma literally controls gravity??
Great, another ''Magic'' character
doomfist wishes he has that on his disposal
This
Not really magic tbh, just hard science
sigma could theoretically just.. launch her into space since he controls gravity
Solar energy
lets see how the sun helps you against the cold vacuum of space
or just crush her
It’s funny how you have all these dudes with augments and robotics and shit and then there’s Bap lol
Love him tho
Most “normal” character
closer to the sun?
...when she's a sun warrior?
also are the guns meant to still be custom in these missions? my pharah is base skin but the gun is the one from my equipped skin
Might be a glitch
think so
Im sure there is much more science behind her abilities
Bc it can just be some energy thing
theyre a heavy solar panel city so (like all solar energy i think)
They basically just use solar power technology technically that augments your dna
That’s it really
It’s bug
Like the explosion causes the objects hit to have the ability to take tge energy given to it and then explode as a result
Ye, defo science
But sigmas is definitely magic
I mean I dont think solar energy would help you breath
Lol what
Sigma is 100% science
Hard sci fi
Doesn’t make it magic tho
And even then, solar radiation wouldn’t really keep her alive
You really believe in magic ?
Ya but still. Also another funny thing is that i sucked up her ult as sigma then the next game a sigma sucked my ult
The closest character I can think of that’s “magic” is Kiri or the brother
But there’s probably a explanation for that isn’t there
Kiriko, I deadass don’t know how to explain her powers
That’s why I feel like she doesn’t fit in
Right? It’s definitely based on folklore tho right?
Most likely
Seeing how she’s part of a group literally called Yokai
there's a talking monkey with a tesla cannon lmao
There’s sci fi there tho
Planet of the Apes inspired sci fi in Winston’s character
guys i think they messed the numbers up on the timeline in the email thing
Even zen is explained through the Iris which is hard sci fi
Genji and hanzo is a bit iffy
it says king's row uprising was 10 yrs ago from present day in ow
shouldn't it be 7
the timeline got updated
Ok so genji, hanzo, and kiri are magic. Or the closest to magic. Mainly bc genji got a damn dragon coming outta his blade, hanzo got 2 dragon coming outta an arrow. Kiri got a fox coming out of her sign lango ultimate
because time has passed since Recall
I don’t think it’s yokai based but it still could connect to Japanese folklore? I’m not Japanese tho so I’m kinda talking outta my ass
3 yrs passed between recall and zero hour?
wtf
Pretty much. People tried to explain the dragons were nanobots but then again the Shimada dragons is a blood power so 🤷
seems like it
Foxes are very big in Japanese folklore so ye
Thats lame
doesn't sound right to me idk
i thought it'd be like months at most
a year tops
Im ok with a bitta magic. Also wasnt there a cinematic where hanzo fights some dragon lady?
I’m just talking out my ass idek lol
also why are they suddenly being pushy about fareeha and angela? got nothing against fareeha for being lesbian or anything its just
genji is the one for mercy smh
that was for Heroes of the Storm
not canon
Crossover
what do you mean pushy?
Oh. I was so confused
I was wondering who tf she was.
just like... suddenly a lot of "chemistry" between them
?
Nah, she should be with me fr
I didn't see any
voicelines, the lore thingys
anyone notice in the mondatta assassination cutscene widow's wearing her ow2 skin
who angela?
Anyways back to what im saying some of the forms of attacks in each hero is very weird for a war against robots.
Yes
is that a mistake or
lmao what
the pve cutscene
oh that's fine i got dibs on fareeha
like the one where Pharah calls her Dr. Ziegler?
u can tell by the sleeve and u can also see the hair braided
didn't notice 😭
There’s like 1 voice line between them that’s basically pharah going “I’ll be your knight in shining armour” which what I think they’re referring to?
that's an old line
Ye
There’s also the novel that came out during pride
maybe im tripping idk
the new lore pages in the mission tab have a bunch of things about them talking about eachother
ill rewatch
Haven’t seen it
We got cass who has a revolver, genji and kiri having throwables, and then moira who has a suck.
Both genji and kiri throw their shit so hard it can destroy robots, meanwhile moiras suck is the equivalent to a jet engine i suppose. Cass is just sjooting sniper rounds.
genjis got robo arm so i understand
I mean
Basically bap comes out as bi and talks about it with Pharah who confirms she’s a lesbian and says she kinda had a crush on mercy or something like that at one point
But kiriko?
Revolvers have massive calibres
She throwing them hard af
they aren't "pushing" that relationship any more than they normally do
Oh, that’s actually cute asf lol
Ya but for a robot thats probably armored up
just checked, it is
i can't tell if it's on purpose or a mistake
True, but I don’t think all of the robots are bulletproof everywhere, we know cass is a good shot so he could just shoot week points
what's that
pretty sure cass' gun would deal decent damage anywhere
Pharah's journal from Invasion
Pharah when she takes care of her teammates 
never said love, just that they're making them a lot closer
Imagine an event where sigma realizes he has been working for the wrong side the whole time and turns on talon. Overwatch goes after him to try and calm him down and retreat him. BOOM new lore gamemode called Signas Awakening. 1 v 5 where its a boss lvl gamemode. Kinda like the reinhardt demon king gamemode.
They literally rely on each other to stay alive
You tend to befriend people like that
?
Wait have mercy and Pharah not been in a battle together
Sigma would defo choose overwatch tbh
it's mainly moira that's making him like this
moira a b*tch both as a hero and lore wise
I swear they have
Pharah only just recently joined Overwatch
They worked together in Venezuela once
Toronto is her first mission with the team
that was Mercy and Bap
Oh my bad
And I love her for it
what year is present day ow
Nice to see pure evil characters
Ya but wouldnt he be scared or confused for a moment. BOOM gamemode moment
FREE SIGMA
i bet at some point in lore sigma will somehow regain his sanity
This game has lore?
Lol
nah
Ik. Crazy huh
Ah alright
I mean it was kinda expected but tf2 probably dosent have as much as this
And only for a Low Low price of $15, YOU can play 3 missions with one of them already done in 2019
How lovely
Yk what they do have. A good company
Which one
nah tf2 prolly has more
what, you can't afford $15?
dont they have like comics
Valve
Maybe with Demoman and the bombinomicon and all that
It definitely doesn’t
True
Say what you want but OW but with 30+ characters with lore, how can tf2 have more ?
Ya i can but its funny how you pay for a mission that was already done in 2019
Yeah
what does that have to do with anything?
that's what i heard
there are games that were finished 20 years ago, does that mean I shouldn't have to pay for them?
I heard about the one drama thing what I don’t get is Why would they change his name from McCree to Cassidy is what I don’t get
Controversy surrounding blizzard
Thought so
!!whycassidy
McCree was originally named after a Blizzard employee named Jesse McCree, because he had a cool sounding name. Blizzard no longer associates with that employee due to harassment in the workplace, so they changed the hero's name. Blizzard also committed to not naming in-game characters after staffers anymore.
His old name was connected to someone
there was a guy called mccree who worked at blizz who allegedly did smth
Ooohhhh alright
Now it's Cassidy
Oof wow the kiriko nerf is felt
In lore, they basically explained that Jesse Mccree was just a fake name
This bot answers questions?
Get this in your brain
Oh well there u go
Already did
It’s weird tho because it they do flashbacks, they still have to call him Jesse for consistency lol

Probably bc u mentioned that name
nah bruh i can't fathom a 3 yr timeskip between recall and zero hour
Probably

I entered a command
what took them so long☠️
Did they increase kunai rate of fire?
Winston got left on read for 3 years dayum
Imma explore more channels
They never went further with the starwatch
also this would mean tracer and lucio are 29, brig is 26, etc.
Mei had to travel from the Antarctic to Gibraltar for 3 years
