becuz she gos fast xd

Mei is Pyro, but probably unrecognizable because she is overpowered with utility while he has none.
Roadhog is just Pudge from Dota
How is Bastion Hawken?
How is Tracer Quake?
Also I feel like Hanzo is specifically TF2 sniper crossbow because of how similar the style of spam sniping it encourages. You just spam the shots as fast as you can and You two shot most people just out of good odds and low tick rate.
I agree with everything else though good eye.

If anything I would say tracer was inspired by that one fps game last gen where you could go back in time a few seconds or whatever I forget what it was called as it was only meh aside from that mechanic.

In hindsight I was wrong about Tracer, maybe Timeshift?
Although it's probably too obscure to be a source of inspiration.

Yes, you wasted your time with this post and I'm sorry. Here's another (you) to make you feel better.

I can't find info on this shit anywhere online and I would really like to know.
Defense: Bastion - TF2 Heavy Hanzo - TF2 Bow Sniper Junkrat - TF2's Demoman Mei - ??? Torbjorn - TF2's Engineer Windowmaker - Sniper in any game
Tank: actually pretty unique characters
Support: Lucio - Jet Set Radio Mercy - TF2's Medic Symmetra - Portal Zenyatta - ???

It is an interesting thread and not just shitposting so it's good in my opinion op. One of the only decent threads up at the moment.
Kayden Watson
Now people see that this game is crap
Cooper Campbell
>Bastion - TF2 Heavy He's more like the obligatory helicopter level in every modern FPS You know the one >Hanzo - TF2 Bow Sniper >Genji - TF2 Melee demoman These aren't even close to comparable
Brayden Peterson
many are basically rehashes of tf2
Michael Harris
>Reaper >not inspired by Columbine
Seriously?
Owen Butler
i agree with you on the helicopter bastion thing, and on the genji thing as I thought shadow warrior was pretty accurate, but hanzo is absolutely just a lucksman sniper. it was even a popular thing for sniper to have a upwards wallrun/ ledgegrab on some modded tf2 servers. the only thing they really added was a spreadshot thing for him as sniper already had tracer bullets in the deus ex gun.

Pharah - Solider Tf2
Austin Cruz
he is inspired by Norden Portant the protag of hatred.

I don't know, I feel like it's silly just because I don't want to believe TF2 is the only recent game in which a bow is used as a weapon. Like the Junkrat =Demoman and Mercy = Medic comparisons are pretty clear, but Hanzo = huntsman just because they both use a bow seems cheap.

>Hanzo - Far Cry 3/4's Bow He's clearly based on a huntsman sniper from TF2
Jeremiah Green
both are bows which rely very strongly on aim assist or low tick rates or hitscan or whatever have you. Both are basically hard to miss with high damage things you can spam and don't really have to aim at all to be extremely effective with. I didn't play sniper much in tf2, but on occasion I would switch to him and he could just wipe an enemy team by spamming auto locking headshot death at them. In my opinion sniper was fine in tf2 also and probably one of the most properly balanced classes in the game though so I am not trying to start that shit. just saying hanzo is basically the exact same, extremely entry level low skill ceiling sniper with very high potential to be devastating to the enemy team even if you don't know how to aim properly.
