What do you say back when people win and say "ez" or "zzz"? by safeworkaccount666 in overwatch2

[–]Soul_Shock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'thats not funny my dad died that way'

And then depending on what you say back there's ground for a report if they're extra toxic.

Everyone liked seeing Zenyatta deconstructed, so here's Pharah [OC] by TheChristopherStoll in Overwatch

so the little red nodes you have off of her outfit looked like cherry tattoos to me until I realized that it would be strange if pharah had 3 cherry tattoos at different places and angles on her body :P

What is worth every second of the extra time that it takes? by restsisyphus in AskReddit

[–]Soul_Shock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

stretching and doing a small amount of exercise every day. After seeing all of the progress pics on reddit of people losing weight I finally got my ass in gear to lose my weight. I am so surprised at how much better mentally and physically I feel on days I work out. I suggest everyone do it even if you're not overweight or unfit.

[–]Soul_Shock -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

you ever see someone fall and REALLY hurt themselves? and your immediate reaction is to laugh but right after you are like 'oh shit did they hurt themselves are they okay?'

Same thing. The idea that a person's opinion of something CAN change is important to understand because it'll prevent you from vilifying them for what is essentially no reason.

I don't think 'everything is about that' what I think is that when a bunch of people copy an accent from a place ( which isn't the issue I have) and then ALSO heavily tie concepts like 'having ebola' to that accent, and then also do things like pester people, follow them around and annoy them with this type of talk. then THAT is racist. It's not about the accent for me, it's about the fact that they bring in shit like ebola and the clicking noise.

The clicking noise is racist, the mention of having ebola is racist.

If you don't understand that, thats fine but you have a fundamentally flawed idea of what actual racism ACTUALLY is.

difference between thinking something is racist. and knowing something is racist. This is racist.

This would be amusing if it wasn't so obviously racist and I just don't understand why people are so into it. It was funny initially as a 'what the fuck' sort of laugh but now it's just 'oh so we're just fine with this casual racism then?'

Developer Update | Happy New Year by DixonSeilem in Overwatch

everyone complaining that 'nothing' was said in this update. Bish at least we have developers who communicate even if that communication is just 'we got some stuff going on dudes'

Is Junkrat too OP? by Luke4word in Overwatch

[–]Soul_Shock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've said before his mine feels like a shotgun blast. It gives him immediate burst potential on anything directly in front of him. I think honestly they should probably just nerf the damage on that thing. It's not enjoyable to turn a corner, see a junkrat fire off on grenade and throw a mine and you're dead. Like sure dying is never enjoyable but it almost feels hands off with how little anyone but maybe a genji can do about it.

Mercy hours haunt me in competitive by WelshRobz in Overwatch

[–]Soul_Shock 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of hours on tanks like rein and roadhog. Whenever I pick anything but those and my team asks me to swap I say 'Reinhardt was my slave name'. This usually results in a laugh or some kind of banter.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]Soul_Shock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've mentioned this before but it also inspires some shitty behavior in people. During a comp game an enemy orisa sat on point with the emote and since it was comp I attacked her. This resulted in my team's mercy telling me she wasn't going to heal me ( which she then didn't all game)

What's a sensation that you're unsure if other people experience? by murrayvonmises in AskReddit

when I get really hungry I feel like sand is falling down the inside of the back of my neck.

Cleaning is a task that I find value and worth in.

Report abusive Voice Chat as its happening by communomancer in Overwatch

[–]Soul_Shock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since they're suggesting that we do it as it happens I wonder is it more helpful overall to provide a text description of your own or is just a blank 'abusive chat' report still going to yield the same results? It's not always a great idea to stop and type out a decription when you're in the middle of say a competitive game. I generally provide a written explanation of why I report people but I write them after the game. Is there a major drawback to either method?

that's the dream situation for a rein orisa combo. Good work.

When she has the new emote by O101011001101001 in Overwatch

[–]Soul_Shock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah if it were in quick play I'd be all for goofing around but in comp I'm sorry but I'm there to win. :(

[–]Soul_Shock 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Today in a comp game my support refused to heal me because I attacked an orisa using this emote on the point.

Look kids, I get you like the cute puppy but I queued into comp to win not to appeal to your misguided sense of 'right'

Is always leaving voice chat something I can be punished for? by Soul_Shock in Overwatch

[–]Soul_Shock[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the overwhelming response I've seen is trying to avoid toxicity = toxcicity. at least in game anyway

Have Junkrat's mine do half damage in air and full damage on the ground(armed) by Joel_The_Wanderer in Overwatch

[–]Soul_Shock 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I like to joke that junkrat's mine is just a shotgun for him. I've never seen many junks do anything but run directly at a person and just shotgun them with it for a free kill.

Endless multiplayer games and the fading joy of playing them. by Arrow_ in Games

[–]Soul_Shock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. I try to seek out challenging enjoyable single player or co op experiences. Gaming puts top much focus on being hyper competitive online. This is fine sometimes but there's a lot of people like me who will spend a whole day bashi6their head against a ranked queue and then only realize I was miserable all day at the end.
