Not me because it was already released and I already watched it.

It's by far the best animated short I've seen in a while, the animation is top quality, the characters in it are awesome, there's constant suspense, and the only complaint I have is how stereotypical Tracer's accent is. As far as I'm aware, British people don't say "love" at the end of literally every other sentence they speak.

Needless to say, a lot of people are hoping there'll be a full-length Overwatch movie in the future.

Don't worry, I thought the same. But yeah, it came out earlier. For those curious, it's about Widowmaker and features Tracer, as well as clearing up some backstory involving both of those characters as well as Zenyatta (though he doesn't appear in the short himself).

Ah yeah, it was really well done. I'm excited that they're doing shorts similar to TF2 in order to provide backstory for such a huge and slightly confusing story.

I don't know if they'll ever make a movie out of it, but I hope they'll continue making a short for all characters in Overwatch anyhow.

There are two more confirmed shorts before the game even releases, and considering a Warcraft movie is coming soon, it's not out of the realm of possibility, especially considering how deep in lore Overwatch is.

I can confirm that Retro does indeed end every sentence with "love".

Not sure about the booty part.

Usually, when we're being pretty cocky we usually do add something like that at the end of a sentence. Usually though it'd be a guy saying it in general towards a girl usually to act all flirty towards them, but with a girl it's more or less just then being cocky about something they did.

I mean, if they're just saying it casually in sentence, and they don't have a cockney accent, then it's just being forced onto the character.

They're either doing this to say "we want to empower women and break away from past stigma" or something

or they're just giving everyone the finger and saying "what're you gonna do about it"

Basically the latter.

They solved the original actual problem of the "over the shoulder" pose being incredibly generic and not fitting Tracer's personality, while keeping the same position to show off her butt, meaning people that complained about it being overly sexy just have to deal with it.

I am actually starting to get really excited about playing Zen.

If they changed his 50 hp pool that was normal hp to armor (being a robot and all) I think that would fix the issue of him having to be so out in the open to heal people.

TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT BOYS

8 hours from now, Overwatch's servers will return for EARLY ACCESS OPEN BETA USERS, and we're gonna get our ****** game on

Also, if anybody here wants to play Open Beta early but didn't pre-order, post before ~4 PM, I still have my friend code since none of my friends seem to want to play as much as I do and wouldn't mind giving somebody here it (assuming my friends don't take it by then of course)
