arctic loom
doctor you cant deny you want to play the missions again
on archives this year
right?
i always get hyped for that event
even being the same missions
peak escarp
of course
I love the Archives missions
Retribution is the best thing they've ever made
I would play nothing but Archives missions if I had the choice
arctic loom
well with a hundred of missions on ow 2
you will have fun
for the rest
of your life playing it
arctic loom
i probably going forget pvp on ow 2 because im going be focusing to upgrade all skill trees
on each character
peak escarp
I'm tired of playing against people, give me PvE
arctic loom
in my opinion the best skins always come on archives event
im just want the junk skin too bad
that gun is really awesome
hushed jetty
Archives is the nextevent, right?,
arctic loom
yep
hushed jetty
Very cool
Who do you think is getting a skin this year?
arctic loom
hm...
peak escarp
hard to say
peak escarp
we've gotten pretty much every lore-based skin idea I can think of
maybe Zen in some formal Shambali robes?
hushed jetty
A zen archives skin would be so good
peak escarp
nah we already got one
that doesn't matter
dire zodiac
Im not sure what echo could get anyway unless it was like half built one?
peak escarp
heroes have gotten back to back skins before
hushed jetty
I've been lowkey hoping for a bap archives skin that's based on concept art mercy, but that may be a stretch
peak escarp
unlikely
arctic loom
in a mission
dire zodiac
Ooh that would be cool
peak escarp
I hope they have a better solution to Echo's ult in PvE
just copying allies is kinda boring
I'd like to be able to copy elite units
young knoll
coding that would be a bit difficult, especially if the elite units have multiple attacks that can be construed as abilities
though it would also be awesome, so I hope they do
dire zodiac
Itd be cool since theyre so powerful
worthy rose
Itd be cool since theyre so powerful
Yeah. As long as they balance it, it's a cool idea. They can't have her too powerful
austere pelican
Yeah. As long as they balance it, it's a cool idea. They can't have her too powe...
they dont need to balance cuz its pve
young knoll
pve is not that simple. too powerful and it stops being a challenge. not sure if they plan of having difficulty modes or whatever, but having her just be able to copy anything and clear the whole stage is unlikely to be a good design philosophy
cosmic crest
They do still need to balance for PvE.
But yes, they can make the heroes much stronger.
iron plume
They don’t need to be balanced against the enemies, but having a hero that absolutely stands out in terms of strength is still bad
void gazelle
they dont need to balance cuz its pve
Null sector will complain
limpid agate
THe problem with copying echo ult ins't balance.
Its hard to just make the ability work
There does still need to be balance though. You can't just give Torbjorn instagib turrets for example.
austere pelican
yeah
cosmic crest
Echo has overtaken D.Va as Overwatch's new problem child.
She is a very technically strenuous hero.
When Echo is duplicating you hero switch is temporarily unavailable, this isn't a balancing thing, the game cannot handle you switching heroes while she duplicates you.
peak escarp
it's a compilation of all the comics so far
they already released an anthology with the first 12 comics
this is that plus the rest
worthy rose
Listen to know the lore on spotify. It's a podcast. He does all of the lore updates, I've been listening to him for awhile.
It's by Nerd Sloth
peak escarp
well this is the place to ask
worthy rose
well this is the place to ask
He's trolling
worthy rose
well this is the place to ask
Not you, Amogus
tawdry bay
Who would win in a fight? Dva or wrecking ball? I know they'll never meet but who has the better mek
limpid agate
D.Va has a top-of-the-line military grade piloted mech with a fusion reactor.
Hammond's mech is scrap metal built around an escape pod.
peak escarp
if it's just the mechs fighting, Wrecking Ball would win, because it is autonomous and Tokki isn't
rain star
if it's just the mechs fighting, Wrecking Ball would win, because it is autonomo...
that can = a d.va win tho...
i could beat up a robot modeled after a silver back despite my hieght starting with 4

D.va stomps featless wrecking ball
peak escarp
that can = a d.va win tho...
i could beat up a robot modeled after a silver back...
how is that relevant
rain star
how is that relevant
i was trying to give an example of how a human mind can outmanuever a robot, sorry
peak escarp
my point was Wrecking Ball, a mech with AI, could beat Tokki, a mech with no AI
because Tokki wouldnt be able to fight back
wet valve
hammond is super smart probably smarter then dva could pretend to die dva goes back to her life then he eat her toes while she sleeps
wet valve
also hammond is probbly fast since he has a need for speed he probbly trains on a hamster wheel
baby dva as a gamer
would get winded walking 5 feet
also hammond is not that small or light they have said before he is acttuly pikachu sized so about 1 foot
thats kinda big
for a hamster
also do you want to see a person killing a hamster or a hamster eating a girl alive
they should make a comic tho of rein meeting bastion since he has pstd after fighting them maybe this will fight or torb shows that bastion has changed
peak escarp
baby dva as a gamer
She's also in the military and probably had some basic combat training
nothing indicates she is out of shape
peak escarp
they should make a comic tho of rein meeting bastion since he has pstd after fig...
we'll see this in OW2
wet valve
why do you want to see a girl kill a hamster so bad?
peak escarp
who said anything about killing?
wet valve
still beating up
peak escarp
someone asked who would win in a fight
wet valve
if they fight someones getting hurt unless you mean a online argumeant
Hammond cusses at dva for 5 hours for playing dps moria the comic
peak escarp
!!shitposting
twilit nacelleBOT
Shitposting will result in a loss of access.
wet valve
man ok i will stop
limpid agate
MEKA was originally a fleet of unmanned drones
Before the Gwisin adapted interference required pilots.
wet valve
i feel like ball could win against dva in his mech at least he is the mech fighting champ in junkertown
limpid agate
D.Va is essentially the mech fighting champ of Busan. Just replace the enemy mechs with mech-sized omnics, and fighting with warring.
And mech-sized omnics are the small ones
The Gwisin Kaiju lives up to its fan nickname
wet valve
ok but ball probbly has a speed advantge over dvas mech
and speed is important in a fight
limpid agate
Wrecking Ball has awful armor, awful weapons, and cannot fly.
Tokki has military grade armor, missiles AND fusion cannons, and can fly.
Wrecking Ball is the champion of Junkertown, a city made of garbage where garbage fights garbage.
Tokki is a literal war machine whose pilot is the star of the Korean army in repelling the Gwisin.
wet valve
Wrecking Ball has awful armor, awful weapons, and cannot fly.
ok 1 hammonds mech was based off a escape pod on a space ship so it probably needs good amour to survive space how could wis weapons suck if they can shred mech after mech in a arena and even if he was just fighting garbege we dont really know the full power of his weapons or mechs kit
limpid agate
The escape pod is inside the mech
Its not the mech itself
The mech is built around the escape pod
wet valve
it still would need tough amour to survive high drops reach high speeds survive other mech attacks and be able to make a adaptive shield basically a barrier
limpid agate
This battle is basically asking "What would in in a fight, a car from mad max or a futuristic fighter jet?"
I don't care how many cars this thing can brush off. A fighter jet is a fuckin fighter jet.
wet valve
This battle is basically asking "What would in in a fight, a car from mad max or...
it more like who would win a stronng machine that can move at super high speeds survive drops of major velocity vs a young girl who isn't even past collage in a mech
limpid agate
People have lots of misconceptions about D.Va being young
People forget that South Korea literally has conscription.
wet valve
also hammond mech is not made out of trash he does have one made out of junk
in his junkertown version
his mech he uses now could be made of wolverine skeleton for all we know
peak escarp
it was built before he left Junkertown
limpid agate
Tracer was actually younger than D.Va when she joined Overwatch as a test pilot, but no one seems to care about that. And the UK doesn't even have conscription.
wet valve
anways i feel like saying hes from junkertown or makes his mech of trash is dumb like he has a soundboard and you cant make one of those out some trash and scrap metal
limpid agate
Like, all of those South Korean Overwatch pros in our real world, the ones who play in the Overwatch League? They have to serve a compusory tour in the military if they haven't already.
Like D.Va
peak escarp
anways i feel like saying hes from junkertown or makes his mech of trash is dumb...
of course not, but Hammond didn't make his
wet valve
anyways he is super smart he probably would not choose trash to make his mech he probably melts down the junk to a stronger material
peak escarp
he bought it
limpid agate
Wrecking Ball is the champion of Junkertown, the town that lives up to its name of being Junk.
D.Va is flying one of the most advanced mechs in the world.
If not the most advanced.
wet valve
like would you even go into battle knowing your using a mech made out of trash
or junk no
limpid agate
The opponents are also made of trash
wet valve
yeah and hammond beat all of them
limpid agate
That looks like the stuff his mech defeated
wet valve
does his mech even have rust
limpid agate
Yes
slender prairie
Well, technically speaking if D. Va ever destroyed Hammond’s suit he could scatter away and crawl into her power suit and cause it to malfunction or something
wet valve
that too he is smart way smarter then we know he was with winston one of the smartest minds of overwatch
growing up he could be just as smart
if not smarter
wet valve
that is not rusted
slender prairie
D. Va would probably beat him one on one with their battle suits but Hammond could “outplay” her in that sense
wet valve
who need to fly when you go like mach 3
limpid agate
that is not rusted
This is Wrecking Ball's introduction video on the Overwatch website. Not only is it immediately presented as falling apart, the inner legs are visibly damaged with what look like painted-over rust stains, and the guns are literally barely holding together. They look like they can fall apart in their standard animations in game too.
And Hammond cannot go Mach 3.
His mech can't even go mach 1
I don't think you know how fast that is
wet valve
fine jesus he can lose ok is that what you wanted me to say
its just weird saying he doesn't stand a chance
if he could even fight or mess with overwacth heros
limpid agate
Its a curbstomp battle.
wet valve
he has to have some power
limpid agate
Its like saying Mei can defeat Widowmaker in a ranged duel.
wet valve
also we have never seen Hammond's full potential for all we know he can make a way better more powerful mech
he just chooses not too
limpid agate
That wasn't the discussion.
wet valve
i hope we get more hammond lore
limpid agate
The discussion was Wrecking Ball.
limpid agate
If Hammond had access to Overwatch resources like Winston did instead of Junkertown's, maybe he ccould make a better mech than the ball.
But he doesn't, and he didn't.
wet valve
we dont even know the full capabilities of that
mabey he does in overwatch 2
mabey he has a reunion with winston
it said he liked to travel wreaking ball seeking adventure mabey her heard of the havoc going on in rio
and came to help
to have a little adventure and maybe wrecking ball joins just for the fun of it
we dont know alot about about ball we dont even know most of his cappilties or feats
for all we know he could even be part of talon
heh that would be funny Hammond as a talon agent with a little black suit
what if we got a comic of a au where all the talon agents formed overwatch and all the over watch agents formed talon or road hog and junkrat became kings of junkertown
null sector is a good guy made to stop
talon
lyric sluice
lol
lyric sluice
hammond honeslty i dont think he has the level of emotional thiking and hostile caring of the world to join talon
wet valve
we only know he likes adventure we never know if he is truly on the good or bad side or if he's neutral like hanzo
peak escarp
I don't think Talon would want him
wet valve
yeah i guess like they have a man with a fist that could level skyscrapers why do they need a hamster but heh they need a engineer maybe they will find his mech impressive
limpid agate
A man that they say can level skyscrapers
lyric sluice
I don't think Talon would want him
tru
wet valve
A man that they say can level skyscrapers
ok but still that fist wouldn't of been well protected if it was just some toy
and he almost took on 3 members of the overwatch team by himself and almost won too
limpid agate
Who said it was "just some toy"
wet valve
he just got monke slapped and lost
wet valve
Who said it was "just some toy"
it was sarcasm or maybe exaggeration
peak escarp
he punched his way out of prison without the gauntlet
wet valve
he punched his way out of prison *without the gauntlet*
that too
and he knows tons of martial arts
he could be one of the most powerful people lore wise
wet valve
wait some have theroy that null sector is made by talon but they dont have a engineer for what we know
what if ball does become
there engineer
and ball is behind null sector
peak escarp
the Null Sector leader went to Doomfist asking for help - why would he need to do that if they were already working together?
wet valve
and by doomfist words he says chaos is the way to have balance starting a second war could cause tons of chaos
wet valve
the Null Sector leader went to Doomfist asking for help - why would he need to d...
oh when was that said
peak escarp
wet valve
restricted on the school computer
welp nevermind
i get the memo
did he say yes tho
or do we not know yet
peak escarp
that's why Null Sector is attacking in Zero Hour
they had to put their plans on hold because Doomfist got arrested
but now that he's out, they can launch their war
wet valve
so if he did say yes wow over watch is in some deep trouble they got to go against talon and
null sector
this sequel's story already sounds like it will be interesting
peak escarp
definitely
limpid agate
do you think maximilien will play an important role in ow2's story
We already know Max will be present. Not only are they giving him a map, he was present in the original Overwatch 2 trailer as well as the Behind the Scenes panel. He is also a major player in Talon as an organization overall.
peak escarp
no, Max isn't likely to be a hero
peak escarp
he's a member of the Talon council
fast dragon
Interesting
cosmic arch
Will there be playable null sector characters in ow2?
agile quartz
hello
dire zodiac
Will there be playable null sector characters in ow2?
unless they defect probably not since they dont seem to have much free will
cosmic arch
Well, surely some of them do, like the omnics that organise everything, or does max just control it all?
And also, doesn't Widowmaker not have much free will either?
tawdry bay
Will there be playable null sector characters in ow2?
No i don't think so
But playing as that lady who brings people in will be sick
Can you copy them with echo ult?
cosmic arch
But playing as that lady who brings people in will be sick
Athena?
tawdry bay
No you know in the behind the scenes
That boss lady with orbs for eyes
That pulls you in
The omnic
Enemy
Person
Probably should have elaborated
iron plume
Null sector wraith?
we don't know how echo will work in OW2 yet
in archives she can copy friendlies, and also enemies who are already heroes
but it would be a bit of a missed opportunity if there's nothing else
proud pike
in archives she can copy friendlies, and also enemies who are already heroes
I'm confused a bit. Which archives?
tawdry bay
Ye that
iron plume
The in-game name is wraith
iron plume
I'm confused a bit. Which archives?
The event
Uprising, Retribution, Storm Rising
iron plume
yes
proud pike
Echo.... Dr. Liao's?
iron plume
She can copy the NS Bastions and Orisas
proud pike
In.... Archives?
iron plume
but no one else in Uprising, and no talon units
proud pike
Again
iron plume
would be interesting to see her copy some enemy elites in 2
proud pike
Echo. In archives?
proud pike
But its not canon, right?
iron plume
no
iron plume
It's not canon
But we're not talking about canon
iron plume
Canon echo likely doesn't have the "direct copy" kind of ability at all
wet valve
sadly her copying null sector units might happen beacuse then they need to make a special model of each enemy for that and if enemy's had multiple attacks they would have to put attacks in category's such as primary and secondary's and a ult and some may not even have more then 1 attack and then what would you do if you copy the breacher just blow up like it would be cool but moist likely it would be a lot of work to implement it
iron plume
Well, surely some of them do, like the omnics that organise everything, or does ...
Max doesn't run Null Sector, their leader is likely the Omnic we see Doomfist meet at the end of Storm Rising
wet valve
what if a ex overwatch member that refused to join back together is behind it
iron plume
We don't know how much free will the rest of them have but by itself it wouldn't preclude them from becoming playable
wet valve
who had a change of heart
iron plume
t. Reaper, Moira
iron plume
We already have ex-Overwatch who are now Talon
wet valve
did we see ana at all in zero hour
proud pike
they're "dead"
wet valve
Ana and Soldier don't join up
ok solider would definitely make a interesting villain specially since it looks likes there rouges now or may not have interest in overwatch
proud pike
And want to keep this status
iron plume
well, that too
Soldier is not a villain
They still fight against Talon and "for good"
They just don't agree with Overwatch on how to do it
and potentially also feel like them joining overwatch would make things worse
Since they both have doubts and regrets about how OW went last time, and they don't want new-OW to repeat the mistakes they've made
wet valve
sad i feel like soldier could of been a interesting villain
wet valve
but reaper dark edgey soldier is like the cool grandpa we all wish we had in our family
iron plume
comes with the villain territory
wet valve
that makes me think if you were to hang out with one ow hero for a week who would it be
iron plume
It doesn't make sense for "the cool grandpa" to decide to be a terrorist out of nowhere
Baptiste
wet valve
It doesn't make sense for "the cool grandpa" to decide to be a terrorist out of ...
ok yeah now that you put it that way he should stay cool grandpa
i think i would hang with sombra
iron plume
Sombra would just try her best to ignore you and go on with her business
wet valve
i was saying that if the would hang out with you
iron plume
well, depends on your definitions of 'hang out'
wet valve
i feel like sombra would more use me for a prank on reaper that a ow agent snuck into the base
iron plume
i'd watch the hell out of Mei's blog/science youtube channel that's for sure
iron plume
and then you have a shotgun hole through your head
cause reaper is paranoid and doesn't fuck around
wet valve
and then you have a shotgun hole through your head
they want to stay hidden killing a young man is sure to bring attention i would probbly get kicked out of there on sight
and threten that if i told anyone
wet valve
and then you have a shotgun hole through your head
then this happens
maybe i would hang with wrecking ball instead
iron plume
I don't think reaper would be particularly concerned with stealth while killing someone in their base
wet valve
wreaking ball would be cool maybe he could make me my own wreaking ball mech
why do you need a car when you can just roll on the streets
i wonder what being in dva's mech would be like
unlike in game its probably not controlled with like 5 buttons so i dont even think i could use it
could you imagine if you get in the mech and theres just a ps4 remote on the dashboard
wet valve
oh then it would be pretty easy to use
probbly would need a bit of traning
i hope we get more lore of wreaking ball we dont know alot about him
we basically know his origin story
and that he likes adventure
not to much else
dire zodiac
i don't think he's going to be super relevant to the main story
unless we get a junkertown thing?
iron plume
well, he's not even in junkertown anymore, so not then
wet valve
he could have a reunion with winston and join overwatch
iron plume
I wouldn't say we definitely won't see him but the chances are low
wet valve
like it would be like 2 long lost child hood friends meeting together again
beacuse there basically are or at least grew up together
cosmic arch
Does anything say who was the person that mercy wanted to meet at the end of overwatch storm rising?
When max wanted to negotiate with her?
worthy rose
you can send invitations here
wet valve
guys who is sojourn/

summer hollow
whats her part in all that happened
wet valve
do we even know of sojourns real name
summer hollow
btw so how many are overwatch members in the current roster?
wet valve
32
wet valve
oh you meant overwatch members not playable heros
summer hollow
yaya
wet valve
um i dont know i dont want to go count lol
wary crow
I think its a 3rd of the roster?
Maybe?
idk
I think lucio is associated with overwatch, but not an AGENT of overwatch because of his mission with the recalled overwatch agents against null sector
iron plume
do we even know of sojourns real name
Sojourn is her real name
Her surname is most likely Chase
wet valve
oh
iron plume
it says she is a captain of overwatch?
She was a captain in the old Overwatch after Ana went missing/presumed dead
In the present she's retired or at least laying low, there will be a mission to get in contact and recruit her in OW2
iron plume
btw so how many are overwatch members in the current roster?
Confirmed in new Overwatch as of Zero hour: Winston, Tracer, Mei, Genji, Mercy, Reinhardt, Brigitte, Echo
Confirmed to join during OW2: Bastion, Sojourn
People we've seen in OW2 mission previews, will/may join up with Overwatch in some capacity but not necessarily sign up: McCree, Pharah, Lucio, Zarya, Baptiste, Zenyatta
wet valve
mabey mcree does it to see if he can finally get his name cleared
hazy ibex
How did MCree lose his arm?
Bob ripped it off, as in the animated short ashe said 'im gonna rebuild bob, and then im gonna have him rip of your other arm'
iron plume
This isn't true
Twitter
We don't know what happened to his arm, but it's not that
Ashe screaming about his "other arm" is just in regard to him having lost it
surreal root
After watching videos on the lore it appears Overwatch is just bootleg Avengers.

Lucio is obviously the strongest lore wise
cosmic crest
Why?
iron plume
power of friendship
misty roost
so i was partially joking there when i said that, but the more i thought about it. he is capable with saving lives with just sound waves alone. and then again you are talking about power level and not strength as a whole. i cant really go more in detail with that though lol.
peak escarp
"power" is a subjective thing
iron plume
well, lorewise the "saving lives" is a bit of a stretch

Yes you are.
- Moira is not trans
- Even if she was, trans women are women, not "he/she"
summer hollow
i said he/she cuz u cant decide
peak escarp
Moira is female
summer hollow
thats subjective
peak escarp
there has been no evidence to the contrary
iron plume
I'm not the one who can't decide here
peak escarp
everything identifies her as female
iron plume
She's a woman.
summer hollow
a trans woman
iron plume
almost certainly a cis woman, but a woman regardless
peak escarp
she was born a woman
iron plume
context clues, figure it out
peak escarp
no she isn't
summer hollow
have u seen her
iron plume
...do you think all vaguely androgynous-looking women are trans?
peak escarp
she looks like Tilda Swinton
iron plume
No I do not
peak escarp
are you saying Tilda Swinton is trans?
summer hollow
dunno who tilda swinton is
peak escarp
just because someone doesn't look conventionally feminine doesn't mean they're trans
peak escarp
queer isn't the same as trans
iron plume
She's not trans.
summer hollow
ok sure
peak escarp
a square is a shape but not all shapes are squares
summer hollow
she didnt say exactly what shape she is
she said she is a shape
she might be trans for all i know or she might not
peak escarp
and then you ignored our answer
iron plume
You didn't ask, you claimed a wrong thing and then refused to listen to corrections
while also calling trans women men
iron plume
no
summer hollow
??????
iron plume
trans women identify as women
while being genetically male
iron plume
well, now that we've cleared that up
Moira isn't a trans man either
peak escarp
she identifies as a woman, and she was born a woman
her Archives spray shows her as a girl
vernal smelt
Pretty sure dr six is secretly Jeff himself

wait, isn't jeff wanted or something?

unfortunately no, I'm not Jeff
peak escarp
nah I'm just a girl who likes the lore way too much
unborn heart
what the fuk is this chat?
peak escarp
this is lore discussion
faint basin
she identifies as a woman, and she was born a woman
woman
however u can not be a woman without being a man, hence the ´man´. therefore scientifically speaking a woman is really a man, just with a ´wo´, which in consequence, distinguishes the gender
woeful trout
wtf
peak escarp
woman means "wife of human"

one of the overwatch team people say that she needs to be near it, not wearing it
peak escarp
wait not that one
ah, the source is from the old forums
In certain locations, including Emily's apartment and Winston's lab in Watchpoint: Gibraltar, the rules are a little different because she is being anchored using a different method, which is why she doesn't have it on her in those scenes in Reflections.
that "different method" is probably through the charging dock emitting a field that keeps her anchored
wet valve
its all fun and game till a power outage and she doesn't have it on
specially since they said like what it takes months to pin her down and get her back

there's a lot of people who think Reyes adopted him, but that's just not true
lyric sluice
wasnt there a comic panel with reaper watching this family from an ally like a total stalker
worthy rose
Yeah in the christmas issue
Stalking his family because he cares and is a good person
lyric sluice
awwwwww
worthy rose
I love Reaper 😄
wet valve
welp if you saw your lost long person from your family with a black suit a skull on his face and basically being a mist now
chances are you would freak out
worthy rose
And now poor Reaper is isolated 😦
wet valve
he as just trying to make sure there ok with out scaring them
its sad
also since hes a criminal his family would try to have him turned in
or somebody who isn't close to reaper
peak escarp
wet valve
without context it looks like reapers getting ready to kill them
peak escarp
context is important
wet valve
we need overwatch without context
just random overwatch images with no context
or parts of shorts
peak escarp
wet valve
does widow still have memories of her husband maybe she can backstab talon and fight for good
peak escarp
the context is everyone spending time with friends/family (for those who have them, anyway)
wet valve
unless thats a other grave
peak escarp
Widowmaker remembers her husband
wet valve
is she actually sad about it does she regret it?
peak escarp
she remembers but she has no emotion about it
peak escarp
she remembers loving him, but currently feels nothing about it
maybe she's trying to feel again
wet valve
ok her remembering and maybe fighting for good could be a cool arc
also i think i have never seen hanzo smile
peak escarp
I don't know if she would fight for good
she might want revenge on Talon for what they did to her though
wet valve
widow kills doomfist
cosmic crest
I don't think Widow is going to turn, but I like the idea that she's only allied with Talon because they give her cool shit and missions to go on.
wet valve
did she even really join i thought they like kidnapped her or somthing
peak escarp
she's allied with Talon because they allow her to kill
also they're technically keeping her captive, even if she doesn't want to escape
peak escarp
it's just a nurse working in Cairo
Mercy's parents were killed during the omnic crisis
wet valve
also it makes me think what do the rest of the hero's do for Christmas like does talon do secret Santa
and yes thats a joke
wet valve
Mercy's parents were killed during the omnic crisis
thats sad
wet valve
does bob give a present to ashe does ashe give bob a present
that would be wholesome
give him a mcree hat
can bob talk i know he usually doesn't but wouldn't most robots by that time would be made with some way to communicate
even bastion can talk with other omnics
oh thanks so bob cant talk
or either can but never does
i have a headcannon that doomfist despise's Christmas and is like the Grinch
unless there real lore to counter that
peak escarp
we don't know if Bob can speak or not
I think the upcoming novel will answer that question
wet valve
i wonder does the rest of his family treats him nice
or do they freak out whenever they see him
peak escarp
we'll see in OW2
wet valve
i could see bastion becoming beloved by kids if he joins overwatch
and if he no longer has ptsd
peak escarp
Reinhardt meeting Bastion was one of the things I was hoping to see, so I'm happy
wet valve
also man bastion is tall
almost as tall as rein
kids could climb on him like a playground
peak escarp
Bastion is 7'3"
wet valve
JESUS
peak escarp
Reinhardt is 7'4" in armor
wet valve
i dont even think he would fit through my doorways
arctic loom
yeah but if zarya going be on story mode
peak escarp
so Torb in that shot should be smaller
wet valve
wonder what zar skill trees would be like
in story
or what importance she would play in the story
arctic loom
well she appear on that mission
with zen genji
pharah
on ow 2 video
not sure if is the story mode mission
or is a hero mission
wet valve
no healer on that mission every mission should have one healer
arctic loom
so maybe is a hero mission?
wet valve
if they dont get healed at chekpoints in the story or somthing
wet valve
i see like 2 charcters that look new
arctic loom
so no orisa?
peak escarp
Winston, Mei, Brigitte, Pharah, D.Va, Tracer, Zarya, Lucio, Genji, Baptiste, Mercy, Echo, Reinhardt and McCree
arctic loom
i expected her to help
peak escarp
plus Sojourn
arctic loom
overwatch
peak escarp
i see like 2 charcters that look new
which ones?
wet valve
oh it was brig i thought the giant orange thing was new
and the blue guy with orange they dont look like themselves in sketch's
heck winston looks human almost
wet valve
if orisa doesn't have a skill where a player can ride on her back in pve i aint playing
wet valve
like could you imagine a crusader build themed around being rein while riding orisa
wet valve
or give her a jetpack for her cat
the good ending
jetpack cat in game
wait so solider 76 is gay does he have a boyfriend has he dated a boy before
wet valve
hmmmm ok
wet valve
any topic you guys want to talk about
austere pelican
any topic you guys want to talk about
who is pharah's dad?
void gazelle
no
austere pelican
we need a lore regular's help!
peak escarp
who is pharah's dad?
Pharah's father's name is Sam
he's a Canadian First Nations man
wet valve
he's a Canadian First Nations man
so i was right about a small army rank
peak escarp
he's a public servant of some kind
austere pelican
do we know anything about junkrat personal life
wet valve
who is junkrats family
maybe he considers road hog like family
peak escarp
fun fact - the hockey game you can see on the TV is the IIHF World Juniors tournament, which starts every year on Boxing Day
wet valve
thanks for the random info
austere pelican
thanks
void gazelle
I am the shitty doctor_six, i know stuff, but forget details
peak escarp
lol
wet valve
is junkrats family perfectly sane or are they looney like him
austere pelican
wdym junkrat is perfectly sane
peak escarp
we don't know anything about Junkrat's family
wet valve
what if he was his own mother
peak escarp
pretty sure that's not how reproduction works
wet valve
and he just popped into existence
austere pelican
asexual reproduction makes it possible
wet valve
but its a game pfffffft who needs logic
peak escarp
humans don't reproduce asexually
austere pelican
wait forgot im a genji main now must use genji emotes
junkrat isnt a human though?
it's of a different breed
peak escarp
he is human
austere pelican
wheres the proof
worthy rose
roadhog im pretty sure is human to obut i always think of him as an anthropomorphic pig
peak escarp
!!shitposting
twilit nacelleBOT
Shitposting will result in a loss of access.
worthy rose
holy shit
austere pelican
fan theories in a nutshell
peak escarp
there's no evidence that Junkrat is anything but human
worthy rose
i desperately want a genji/hanzo adventure game about their backstory with the shimada clan
wet valve
how does rez work like in real cannon
worthy rose
at most parts u play as genji and others u play as hanzo
wet valve
can she actually just bring people back to life
peak escarp
how does rez work like in real cannon
austere pelican
how would rez work irl
worthy rose
he just randomly popped up out of nowhere
peak escarp
Mercy "resurrected" Mei in Zero Hour
wet valve
or is it more like a major heal to a person who is almost dead
peak escarp
it's essentially a burst heal to revive a severely injured person
austere pelican
like if u guys remember the scene from assassination classroom if u seen that
peak escarp
it doesn't bring back the dead
worthy rose
did sigma have any cameo with the overwatch lore before he was introduced
austere pelican
re builds the cells
worthy rose
or is he a whole new tie to the lore
wet valve
just rips them out of heaven
peak escarp
did sigma have any cameo with the overwatch lore before he was introduced
not him, but the space station he did his experiment on is the hologram you can see above Lijiang Towers Control Center
wet valve
hmm
worthy rose
not him, but the space station he did his experiment on is the hologram you can ...
well i guess thats something related
peak escarp
peak escarp
he will be
peak escarp
the devs said they want to use Mauga
worthy rose
its just that they released sigma instead
wet valve
but i would prefer mauga more
we need a explosive themed tank and i think he would fit
well we dont need one but would be cool
worthy rose
well its a nice new tank type
wet valve
also more stuff to destroy bunker comps so cant complain there
worthy rose
anyway about my idea for a solo genji/hanzo game
im honestly rlly down for one
kinda like ghost of tsushima style but genji and hanzo
with the shimada clan
we can explore their backstory more
austere pelican
yo i would be down for a shimada game
worthy rose
sameee
imagine playing as genji or hanzo in an adventure game
kinda like ghost of tsushima
austere pelican
damn that would be nice
worthy rose
mauga going be really interessing
frr
arctic loom
like dva
wet valve
yo could we get a doomfist game about him breaking out of prison then we steal the doomfist in a gta style game
get more doomfist lore
worthy rose
yeah
wet valve
doomfist stealing your car would be scary
worthy rose
there should be spin off games for every ow character that has a long or interesting backstory
maybe like sigma too
i wanna know more bout him
peak escarp
I'd settle for just more stories
austere pelican
wait
limpid agate
You can't realistically make 33+ spinoff games.
austere pelican
i hope they dont do that in ow 2
worthy rose
well even just more story gamemodes im fine with
wet valve
I'd settle for just more stories
same or ones that arnt comics why must i need so many stiff to read
austere pelican
i think most would rather for 1 or 2 most wanted hero get some like those spinoffs
limpid agate
yo could we get a doomfist game about him breaking out of prison then we steal t...
We already have that story in the Comic Masquerade.
As well as Hero of Numbani.
wet valve
We already have that story in the Comic Masquerade.
i know it was a joke
peak escarp
same or ones that arnt comics why must i need so many stiff to read
I love the short stories and the novels
limpid agate
!!shitposting
twilit nacelleBOT
Shitposting will result in a loss of access.
peak escarp
we need more of those
peak escarp
a show would be better
peak escarp
I don't think they could tell a satisfying story in the length of a movie
austere pelican
yeah what would a show be about
wet valve
I don't think they could tell a satisfying story in the length of a movie
true like how you gonna include 32 characters in a 130 minute film
peak escarp
exactly
they'd have to focus on one specific event, which would end up leaving some heroes out
but with an episodic format, they could cover a different group each episode
wet valve
yeah what would a show be about
individual character episode just some stuff with over watch trying to defeat talon
austere pelican
literaly i bet if blizzard put resources into making those cinematics cuz they get crazy amount of viewership the game would prob do good
wet valve
a bunch of stuff really
austere pelican
but now they come out like once a year
peak escarp
it would be a big investment
austere pelican
true but return might be good?
wet valve
yeah animators and voice actors would be way more busy
austere pelican
i think first a rework to their current economic system should come first
cuz lootboxes aint much
peak escarp
I think realistically, they'd have to partner with an animation studio
it would be difficult for Blizzard to produce a series like that in-house
the Doomfist origin story was outsourced, and it was fantastic
wet valve
I think realistically, they'd have to partner with an animation studio
like if it was still overwatch themed with a different style is cool as long as they can keep the voice actors
austere pelican
yes!
worthy rose
Yeah cuz like those shorts prob costed a lot alone
wet valve
i don't want some weird sounding mcree
austere pelican
prob the world not ready for that investment in a gaming industry
peak escarp
the animated shorts take around a year to produce
and they're only around 10 minutes
peak escarp
a full series (12 episodes, 40 minutes each) would take a lot longer
worthy rose
It shouldn’t be 40 mins it should be like 20-25
austere pelican
i would be down for like 15, 10 minute shorts of just ow characters doing stuff
worthy rose
At least
peak escarp
either way, it would be a big investment
worthy rose
Or that
austere pelican
i think longer episodes would be too hard
maybe like short films
that have big meaning in short time, like they do in cinematic
but once again that'd be very resource intensive
worthy rose
OW team just gonna have to beg to WoW for some bucks lmao
ITS A JOKE BTW
don’t hurt me : (
wet valve
diablo is getting a netflix series in the style of a anime we could be next you never know
wet valve
keep it animated
yes pls for the love of god
specially since then we would need real actors and the only voice actor that looks like there hero is the mcree actor
peak escarp
the VAs care a lot for the game, I'd hate to see them replaced with some Hollywood actors
peak escarp
specially since then we would need real actors and the only voice actor that loo...
a few look like their characters, actually
worthy rose
I don't want anything live action for OW
Ye Ik just sayin how other blizzard games were pretty successful
wet valve
who else
austere pelican
keep it animated
yes please
worthy rose
well I mean
austere pelican
imagine bunch of random cosplayers acting out ow cinematics smh
wet valve
ew it would probbly sound like some teen trying to be edgy
opaque tundra
Video game movies have a reputation for being terrible so I would love it if Overwatch kept it up with shorts and other medium
worthy rose
Keanu Reeves live action reaper? ; )
austere pelican
yes i agree
austere pelican
Keanu Reeves live action reaper? ; )
yeah good luck on that blizzard
worthy rose
Keanu Reeves live action reaper? ; )
No man is worthy of acting as Reaper
wet valve
the castlevania series on Netflix wasnt bad
worthy rose
Also hes not really Reapers race
Tbh yeah
Just thought of him right when someone mentioned live action reaper
wet valve
meh i would say 60 to 65 precent match
worthy rose
If they live cast Reaper imma yeet myself off a cliff
peak escarp
I know, I just wanted to show off her cosplay
wet valve
If they live cast Reaper imma yeet myself off a cliff
its gonna be done by BIG ED
peak escarp
but there are some that could play their characters
worthy rose
Not entirely ofc
austere pelican
yeah unless they start getting marvel like budgets they not going to be doing live action any time soon
opaque tundra
Yes
peak escarp
is
worthy rose
He looks straight as hell to me lmao
peak escarp
how does someone "look straight"?
worthy rose
how does someone "look straight"?
I mean he seems straight
I guess gay people have more make up or something?
peak escarp
he never talked about women
worthy rose
No not that
peak escarp
or hinted at liking women
peak escarp
it's just heteronormative to assume someone is straight until proven otherwise
worthy rose
Nah were not like those twitter idiots lol
worthy rose
Ig
peak escarp
making assumptions is a bad thing
worthy rose
Anyway uh
austere pelican
yea
opaque tundra
Wow
peak escarp
. . .
opaque tundra
Uh so anyway I can't wait to see how chaotic this channel gets once OW2 comes out
austere pelican
"sry winston i mistaked you for a hippo"
worthy rose
He’s a literally monke
Hammond looked like some sort of limited time April fools hero to me at first
austere pelican
Uh so anyway I can't wait to see how chaotic this channel gets once OW2 comes ou...
starting the 1 year countdown
worthy rose
Turns out it was legit
peak escarp
Uh so anyway I can't wait to see how chaotic this channel gets once OW2 comes ou...
at least the modsJewvia keeps on top of things
