Has anyone else noticed that almost every character in Overwatch is a racist stereotype?
>Genji and Hanzo are a ninja and a yakuza obsessed with honor
>D.Va is a professional Starcraft player
>Pharah is tattooed with Ancient Egyptian stuff
>McCree is a generic cowboy
>Reaper is Hispanic and a gigantic faggot edgelord
>Tracer's character is summed up as OY GUVNAH WOT'S ALL DIS DEN?
>Junkrat and Roadhog are Mad Max rejects
>Widowmaker's dialogue consists half of things like Ooh la la
>Reinhardt has a ridiculous German name and a monocle
>Zarya is a huge Russian person
>Lucio has the single most stereotypical job for a black guy
>Mercy's got valkyrie iconography
>Zenyatta is a white guy's understanding of Buddhism
>Symmetra supports the fucking caste system
I guess Soldier 76, Bastion, Mei, Torbjorn, and Winston aren't, but that's the majority of the characters.

>complain about racism
>>>/tumblr/
What about Torbjörn?
What kind of cowboy wears a BAMF belt buckle?
Is he supposed to be a huge faggot in-game?
Turok playable when?
I fail to see the problem with this
>yfw it's HIGH NOON
Japanese people are seriously fucked up, would only help their country be more normal if they let all kinds of people into their country.
>no native american characters
Fucking dropped. So under represented. Blizzard needs to check their privilege.
Good point, Mei does build great walls.
S76, Torbjorn and Mei are certainly stereotypical lol
but yeah, everyone noticed it and it's pretty funny
I generally agree, but
>hispanics are stereotyped as edgelords
What?
>Symmetra supports the fucking caste system
A lot of people do in real life, unfortunately.
It's almost like they're soulless caricatures designed by a committee because everyone who has ever had any artistic integrity at blizzard either left or got fired.
>step around the corner for a second and laugh as he kills no one
>HEY! HOW! ARE YOU!
>HOW! YOU! DOING!
All the overwatch characters seem like they're nice people, at least deep down. Except roadhog. He seems like a genuine sociopath whose just a giant dick.
How the fuck did he get recruited. I need the deep lore.
Talking of Genji and Hanzo, has anyone seen the new cinematic?
youtube.com
Pretty fucking weeb, if you ask me
How are they stereotypes? I guess S76 likes guns, but that's a huge stretch.
Hes an actor
Yes hes an actor I believe
Muhammad or Jamal, nobody want you
Roadhog used to be a good guy but nuclear apocalypse broke out in Australia and the radiation fucked up his mind making him slowly lose his former self. If I remember right, he didn't use to kill, but he had to fight to survive in the apocalypse and the radiation made him ruthless over time. Junkrat also got affected by the radiation.
Hanzo shoulda been an injun
They have like 5 asian characters, what the fuck
>Reaper is Hispani
Source? Also, when does the new trailer come out?
>Character supposed to represent my culture is fucking sjw dyke
This shit is really triggering me
>long-term, recurring threads occur in /vg/.
As a swede I find Torbjörn horribly offensive. Where is the outrageous swedish accent? Scottish is not swedish
You're right its 2016 he should of been a strong independent women
For real though, Elizabeth Warren and the rest of the 1-drop injuns would totally lose their fucking shit if you had a native American character in a vidja game that a) you could murder, b) murder as a cowboy, and c) used a bow and arrow. That's just not PC brah.
His name is Gabriel Reyes and he's from Los Angeles. Here's his no-mask skin.
NICE TRY SCHLOMO
>should of
should have*
>mercy has to supervise him at all times like her healing beam is a child leash, just so he doesn't run off and start making too much of a mess
You wouldn't need a bow and arrow or a tomahawk. You could just use a gun or something. You could use your fists or something. You could have a character whose race is incidental.
All things considered they're in damn good shape for radiation exposure.
Source on all that?
This is terrible. They never should have taken off his mask.
kek, the mexican character in the game isn't even technically a mexican, just a mexican living in los angeles.
Blizzard really is having fun with the stereotypes.
