I'm an Overwatch lore expert. Nobody knows who I am, but I know far more about the game than anyone I've ever seen, heard of, or known.

What lore questions do you have?

how is Lucio Black if he's Brazilian?

Lol @ overwatch having lore.
A buncha neckbeards stealing characters from other games is all the lore it has.

Redpill me on Sombra

That's a real world question. There are blacks that are Brazilian. This is off topic from what you asked but there is a meme that goes around that Lucio was supposed to be canadian because of the hockey skins. That's not true. He was going to be a "tech bard" and then being Brazilian was added because of it's rich "musical heritage" and the rest fit together. Lucio has hockey skins because the dev team is obsessed with hockey.

Ask a specific question. If you want to know what her actual motives are, it's still a mystery. But it's clear she isn't really keen on Doomfist's ideals on creating an apocalypse. She is using Talon as a means of gaining leverage.

Is D.va a virgin?
Is Mercy a roastie?
Does Zarya like anal?
Does Symmetra have poor hygiene habits?
Can Tracer triple orgasm with her powers?
Is Widow's butt real or implants?
Does Genji still have a dick?
Does Pharah go commando?

>Does Genji still have a dick?
Out of all your questions that's the only one I can say has a canon answer. Everything below the belt for Genji "functions normally". I'm serious.

Why does the game have lore if nothing in the game actually has anything to do with it?

Which character is the strongest?

Damn, I dunno. Tell me something hat not many people know

>Why does the game have lore
Because it's a Blizzard game. At first, in regards to a story, it was tacked on. Jeff believed no one was really going to care about the lore behind a FPS. Metzen jumped in during development as a creative director and built a world around a "future earth' concept that was mostly supported by cool names Metzen threw around. Like "Doomfist" for example. This image has more examples. Then concepts were built around it.

Then when the final roster was being made they gave the heroes some shaky backstories but mostly wanted to give them all a "character" which you can see in everything the animation team did. From reloading to waving hello, everything drips with characterization. Behind all this was no structure though. No timeline. Incorrect dates. Plot holes. And the biggest thing was Metzen's desire to turn the story into his OC from the 90s personal fanfiction. It was a mess.

The irony being, according to Jeff, the majority of requests for updates center specially around lore. And I know why it takes so long to update but that's another kettle of fish.

I think Winston is the strongest.

I dunno if you really like Sombra you probably already know everything. You know her real name is Oliva right? Most people do now.

>Self-Professed "Overwatch lore expert"
>"No one knows who I am"

You don't say? Huh. Can't understand why you're not a household name with that title.

Wait a minute... are you lowkey because you don't want all the girls to find where you live and all come at you? I bet that's why.

Overwatch has lore?

>story was tacked onto fps concept
so you're just making shit up without researching it. the game has lore because it was originally going to be an MMORPG called Titan. they re-used all the titan assets for Overwatch which included the lore.

So who made reaper all edgy? was it moira or mercy? It doesnt even seem like he knows, are they going to do some twist later and itll be the badmen who done it

There is a post limit my dude. And I was already writing a wall of text. The reason is several factors:

1. It takes 8+ months to make one cinematic
2. It takes 3+ months to make one 10 page comic
3. Their comics artists are all done by commission. They have no in house comic artists for Overwatch. This means the artists they hire live off of commissions and Blizzard needs to adjust to their time schedule. This means a 10 page comic that took less than a month to plan and write takes months to finish.
4.Jeff thinks too much lore at one time "overloads" the audience
5. Early on, a 200+ page, completely finished graphic novel was dumped at the last minute because it was made way too early in development and created more retcons then what they were already dealing with. They will never take a risk like that again

Here is the kicker. Most of the lore is already written. The hold up is what's being made to tell those stories.

I would kill to see the 200 og comic

Is Mercy evil? Did she turn Reyes into an abomination intentionally?

Sorry man, it's been said already that the misconception of Overwatch being built from Titan isn't true. Most of it was trashed, including the story. Jeff said it at this past Blizzcon and actually thinks it's funny people think that. They took ideas like Reaper and Tracer from Titan but they pretty much redesigned everything. They built a new engine, all of it. That's why Overwatch was such a risk. It was an entirely new team that needed to build entirely new game in half the time. Mostly everyone thought it would fail.

As it turns out, the reason Titan failed was dude to massive asset overload. They made too much.

what are the odds of a script of the novel conveniently falling off the back of a truck?

It was Moira. Here is what we know:

Reyes was suffering from some unknown genetic disorder. He sought out Moira shortly after Uprising to cure him. And she does, but the side effect is the ghost shit you see in pic related. He wasn't expecting it to happen, evidently he's scared here. Moira also did the same treatment on herself, obviously before she did it to Reyes. You can see that in her origin video.

Now at some point, Reyes turned into a pale who-knows-what under the mask after the Switz explosion and for some reason blames S76 for it to some degree. He was left behind to turn into whatever "thing" he is. His words. And he's angry as fuck over it

I don't play or know much of overwatch, so this may already be known, but why do they fight in some Valhalla style combat?

I have a few pages from it. But this is all there is.

Not OP, but the gameplay side of OW is completely non-canon. Which is why you can get Widowmaker/Tracer working together, etc.

Yeah to add to what said. The canon in terms of the game is that it's a "what if" senario. Like playing with toys. The toys act in character, the setting they are in is canon, but the situations they are put in is not canon.

Did you miss my questions OP?

>y gaem bad

Will we ever see more to do with the Lunar Colony, and possibly more Ape heroes in the future?

Winston's one of my favourite characters, would like to see more of him expanded upon.

Not exactly lore, but you probably know.
Is 'Queen' the next hero released and is she going to be a titty monster? Please say yes.

Yeah I did, sorry.

>Do they plan on developing the lore further in game with pve shit?
Uprisng looks to be the only mandatory lore tie in event. And I don't seem them putting a halt to recycling events any time soon.

>Does Widowmaker have a redemption ark?
She might but that's so far down the road don't plan on it happening any time soon. But her origin story of why/how she killed her husband should happen in the near future. Lore updates are very slow.

>Why do pharah and ana not get along?
In game interactions make this confusing, and it's understandable. In the lore, Pharah and Ana have not met face to face yet. Ana sent her a letter and Pharah still thinks her mom doesn't support her choice to become a solider. Evidently, before Overwatch shut down she applied to join several times when she became old enough, presumably 18, and her application was constantly denied. We don't know why but it's probably not a far off guess to assume Ana did it.

Now in the game, Pharah and Ana have the chance to talk to each other and Pharah isn't mad at her during those conversations. But when people bring up Ana it's from the perspective that they still haven't met in person yet, so she's still angry with her. Does that make sense?

How big is McCrees cock?

Only thing I can assure you of is the plot point of Tracer and Winston heading to the lunar colony which was hinted at with a news report when Horizon was released. There was also a sneak peek of a cinematic of Tracer running through Horizon shown many months ago.

How do Genji and Hanzo make their dragons? And how did the world evolve so fast to all the crazy tech in just 60ish years?

besides tracer who else is gay?

This is my opinion, but I don't see how she could ever become a hero when she is the narrator for Junkertown. It would be too confusing but a gameplay perspective.

NNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRDDDDDDDDDDDDD

We don't know yet, but there will be more gays confirmed. It hasn't happened yet because they want coming out story for heroes not to feel tacked on. Tracer's was kind of pushed out because they wanted to announce that their cover girl was gay. Well, specially Metzen wanted to. Really wanted to.

Couldn't they just change the narrator?

I guess? But that takes time because that would require some kind of story development to be excusable.

>How do Genji and Hanzo make their dragons?
Not explained but the best bet it that it's just "hard light" tech. The same Vishkar employs.

>And how did the world evolve so fast to all the crazy tech in just 60ish years?
It's just a design thing dude. Alternate earth. They wanted to make a PG13 cyberpunk universe.

Torb has a wife. But I think you knew that.

Mercy's Summer Games skin has "shoes" without soles and this seems both impractical from a sports and from a combat standpoint. Is she canonically a footslut or is there another reason why she would expose her feet in such a way?

Seek help.

Well, I'm triyng to get help from the experts here.

Is there a reason Widowmaker has received next to 0 lore attention compared to everyone else?

Which overwatch women are into anal?

who is the other lunar colony escapee?

Is tracer a lesbian or bi

Talk to me about Roadhog. His past lore is such a mystery and goes mostly unspoken. Is he just a farmer upset that his land was encroached upon? What about his hook, etc. Tell me the cool bits. scrapped lore bits surrounding hog or something. Will we see a proper cinematic featuring roadhog?

Widowmaker appears to have a bad case of lordosis. Is medical technology in Overwatch not able to cure it? Why does her doctor not put her on permanent sick leave or prevent her from taking part in combat missions?

Rundown on this, better than this shitty overwatch baitpost

Is Torbjörn a dwarf or is he a midget?

Lucio is a known criminal. Why is he not imprisoned?

Lucio was originally designed to be canadian, considering his love of hockey and being voiced by a canadian. They decided to make him Brazilian later despite not having a brazilian accent nor speaking any portuguese at all.
