Overwatch - The world needs heroes, and Blizzard needs a TF2 game! - Games

What if they reveal a new hero before the open beta?

Welp, I finally preordered. AAaaaaaand where's my install button? I thought pre-ordering gets me into the beta? [thumb]https://my.mixtape.moe/qbrduh.jpg[/thumb]

First comics out, its McCree [url]http://comic.playoverwatch.com/en-us[/url]

[QUOTE=Takuat;50175816]First comics out, its McCree [url]http://comic.playoverwatch.com/en-us[/url][/QUOTE] Man how bland.

Well that was lame. "I was on a train and shot guys then threw the mcguffin out the door. [I]fin~[/I]" They're completely dropping the ball on world building. The shorts, this comic, they're all super underwhelming. The game's amazing, but it deserves better than [I]that[/I].

Something something Blizzard writing something dead something long time ago

[QUOTE=Noob4life;50176148]Something something Blizzard writing something dead something long time ago[/QUOTE] But then it got corrupted!!

[QUOTE=Noob4life;50176148]Something something Blizzard writing something dead something long time ago[/QUOTE] That's not wrong, though. Let's be fair. :v:

[QUOTE=V12US;50176158]But then it got corrupted!![/QUOTE] The new "twist" is redeemed. See: the Ragnaros the Lightlord card, the new Illidan novel.

[QUOTE=Takuat;50175816]First comics out, its McCree [url]http://comic.playoverwatch.com/en-us[/url][/QUOTE] What is the point in investing all this time and effort into shorts and comics if they are going to be in service of uninspired schlock?

I'm still fine with the shorts because while the writing is cheesy and hamfisted, they've at least visually stunning. That alone makes them kinda fun to watch. But that comic left a lot to be desired on all fronts.

i can hardly read the words, i wish i can zoom in or made the text little bit bigger/made the comic work for screens like tf2's

[QUOTE=e_k_M;50176646]i can hardly read the words, i wish i can zoom in or made the text little bit bigger/made the comic work for screens like tf2's[/QUOTE] This should help [url]http://comic.playoverwatch.com/issues/overwatch/1/en_US/pdf/comic-overwatch-mccree.pdf[/url]

It's funny how TF2 isn't even meant to have a coherent story and it still blows Overwatch out of the water when it comes to writing.
