American is a cowboy

>American is a cowboy
>Brit sounds like the chimney sweep in Mary Poppins
>Japanese is a ninja
>Mexican teleports over walls
Why are all of the characters such broad stereotypes?

how the fuck are we supposed to know that? ask a developer on twitter or something

>China cares about the environment

because they're easily recognizable and stick
there's nothing inherently bad in stereotypes and it's impossible to get rid of them anyway
did you get offended your country got a bad representation?

Because no one would ubderstand Hanzo if they called him Yoichi

kek, I never noticed that

1 Chinese
1 Korean
2 Japanese

And where the hell are the following:

Thai, Laos, Malaysian, Vietnam, Phillipean, Mongolian, Singaporean?

what race is Symmetra anyway

poo

When they do something of worth they will get a character.

curry designated shitting street

Yeah it would be nice if my country got recognized too but then I realize i come from an actual shithole so maybe it's better not

>mongolian

knowing blizzard they'd put genghis khan in the game just for the fun of it

Doesn't every multiplayer game with characters that have personality's always push the stereo types? Even those with mythical characters; Tiny from Dota 2 comes to mind, Cole from GoW also while having less dialogue in multiplayer still won't stop screaming.

> A ROLLING STONE
> WOO COLE TRAIN BABY

Jesus did I just describe Cole as a mythical creature?

Because it's cartoon style and Blizzard doesn't give a fuck

>Australian is an insane murderer with a twink boyfriend

Sounds about right

>Philippines
>fights with a yo-yo and surplus USMC gear

>poo in loo flies and explodes things
what the fuck blizzard

>Mexican teleports over walls

oh snap

THE COLE TRAIN RUNS ON WHOLE GRAIN BABY

indians are hindu not muslim.

Mei stole her technology btw

It's a cartoon game with exaggerated proportions, stereotypes are only fitting, and fun.

Also, what kind of stereotype is a gorilla from the moon?

>Indian tech support
>strong Russian
>Korean gamer
Blizzard wouldn't know creativity if they were paid to do so.

You joke.

The upper class are muslim

WE WUZ ON THE MOON N SHIET

I just want a Scottish highlander with a claymore and a gun hidden in his bagpipes or something.

Blizzard is very avant-garde with their writing. Notice how in Diablo III their plot twist was so apparent as to reverse psychology some people into thinking something else was going to happen.

Oh did I say Diablo III? Cause I might've meant StarCraft II instead.

The dragons of Azeroth gave up their powers, the ones they use to defend the planet, after killing one of the dragons meant to defend the planet. They said they'd fulfilled their purpose. Ya know, during all that other guardian dragon murdering.

What are the Old Gods?

Oh again, fuck, sorry. What I meant to say is blizzard manages plot twists by full fist rape of their lore.

Gorillas in power armor, while not overdone, isn't original in the slightest. Even I did that exact character back when I used to play champion's online, and I remember there being an actual NPC that was one. Probably more than one in fact.

I believe there is a super intelligent DC Comics character. Not sure when created. DC is cancer. I'm sure that comic book character has inspiration from very old 20th century Sci-fi novels and the inspirations for those, some anyway, are shooting back into history too sexist and problematic for us to properly measure.
