If you play as Lúcio on Retribution All Heroes mode he’ll say “More of my adoring fans~!” when Talon agents pour in and start shooting at you and I just want all of you to know that and that I love him okay?
with the new dallas fuel drama, i think it’s important to remember that the players are not at fault and it’s the shitty management’s fault. sure akm is a whiny bitch but he’s not as bad as the mess that is kyky
from xqc’s stream last night and other leaks, kyky and fuel management actively bully their players and there’s underlying racism to all of this. kyky’s “rascal imposes his Korean culture on us” comment is just the tip of the iceberg. unlike the glads when they got fissure, he didn’t bother with translators for rascal who’s never been in an english-speaking team. he expected rascal to become fluent in English in a MONTH and when he couldn’t do that, he went on a racist tirade and benched him
fuel management has a history of tearing down their players apparently because xqc said (grain of salt since it’s from his stream) they didn’t offer him any help when his stepdad kicked him out and they treated his disorders as a joke. not to mention that cocco had a breakdown from pressure and so kyky used that as an excuse to bench him and shit talk him when he can’t defend himself
so dallas fuel disbanding would probably be good for their players with how horrificly they’re being treated rn
idk but what really gets me about overwatch is that its entire marketing tries to convince us that it’s this huge band of heroes who have come together to maintain world peace and achieve Great Things
while in fact that’s what they used to be and what you have now is a family consisting of an ape, two lesbians and a supercomputer having illegal dinner parties in a derelict government facility
the three former leaders of the organization are all presumed dead and pass their time not really disputing that claim considering two of them are currently holed up in a fucking necropolis, and the other one is a constantly decomposing emotional fog
like you’re supposed to imagine this grand force for Good, but then jesse mccree is getting shitfaced in a dingy bar in dorado while sombra sends sneaky update pics of him to reaper, who is currently too busy creeping on a family just because the guy’s flat butt reminded him of his ex husband
hanzo ‘midlife crisis’ shimada shoots dragons out of his nipple but you couldn’t tell that looking at his art student undercut and piercings, and his not-dead (notice how that’s a suspiciously recurring theme in this game?) brother is probably currently at a cosplay convention losing a ‘best genji costume’ competition
like maybe one day they’ll all come together and find common ground and actually do something, but for now they’re just a bunch of weird people in different stages of washed up trying to make ends meet, and it might be the most relatable thing about the whole entire game
@thefutureisbroken described the plot of Overwatch as “couple has a messy divorce, kids try to keep the family together while all their friends realize they only really hung out because of that couple.”
