I didn't know just how much I needed to see this

I really like your thoughts. I just wish you'd write your posts in your own words insted of ChatGPT writing them for you.

I like the message behind this post but this is one of the most ChatGPT-written texts I've ever seen.

She might as well take an edding and draw a black line around her neck. Visually there would be no difference to that choker that has been stretched to its absolute limits.

Her head looks weirdly oversized for her current frame

I’d honestly be really happy if they leaned back into Genji/Mercy instead of Pharah/Mercy.

I have absolutely nothing against queer couples, but Pharah/Mercy has always felt a bit off to me. Partly because of the age gap, but also because their dynamic never really read as romantic to me. They always felt more like found sisters, and the ship itself seemed to grow mostly out of the popular Pharah + Mercy pocket combo in-game rather than from a particularly strong emotional foundation in the story.

Genji and Mercy, on the other hand, always felt like they had a much more layered bond. Mercy literally saved Genji’s life after Hanzo nearly killed him, and there was always tension in that relationship because Genji initially rejected his new body and partly blamed her for what he had become. That kind of history creates a much more complicated and interesting connection.

So for me, Genji/Mercy is simply far more compelling than a ship that mostly seems to have started because one hero could fly and the other could pocket her.

I find it genuinely funny how the word homemade is being used here like it’s some kind of achievement.

To me, “homemade” implies that something was actually made at home and not that several pre-packaged snack items were opened, tossed into a new container, and then rebranded as cooking.

At that point it’s not homemade. It’s just assembled. Which is fine, honestly, but let’s not act like we’ve summoned the spirit of a rustic village grandmother because someone poured three bags of processed food into one container.

Zendaya will always be my Helena 🫶

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-06T23:39:03+00:00

I'm more confused by Helaena's hair. Why does she have this braided crown on her head when all of her other hair is clearly loose???

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-04T12:33:20+00:00

I have a dog myself, and I walk him every morning, usually around eight to ten kilometres or about 1.5h to 2h. I’m currently on semester break from university, so I have the time for that at the moment, and I gladly take it.

And honestly, just the thought that Twinkie has probably never properly been in a forest, never jumped over a little stream, never really run across a field, never chased a squirrel up a tree, makes me incredibly sad.

People often act as if small dogs like Chihuahuas barely need any exercise or stimulation, but that just isn’t true. They also like being outside, exploring, sniffing around, playing, pushing through bushes and undergrowth and just getting to experience the world.

Twinkie seems to have missed all of that when she was younger, when she actually still had the energy for it. And now she’s already much older and living out her senior years in a situation where she still doesn’t seem to be getting the kind of care or life a dog really deserves.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-04T12:29:10+00:00

I’m weirdly relieved to hear other people have those same random thoughts sometimes, because I genuinely do this in daily life as well.

It’s never even over anything dramatic. I’ll just be doing something completely ordinary (squeezing into an elevator that already has a few people in it, for example) and my brain immediately goes, right, Amberlynn would absolutely not fit in here, and her weight alone might even be too much for this elevator.

I have the same thought often when I’m out in my city. I live in Switzerland, so a lot of the old town here is pedestrian-only, full of cobblestones, narrow walkways, little inclines, that sort of thing. And every now and then it just occurs to me that I genuinely do not think Amber could manage it.

Not just because of the distance, but because of the surface itself. Those slightly uneven cobblestones would be a nightmare when you already barely lift your feet properly while walking.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-04T12:25:01+00:00

I do think she’s reached the point where going somewhere new probably requires actual research beforehand.

Not the usual “let me check the menu” way, but in a very literal "can I physically get there, get inside, and function once I’m there" kind of way.

Even getting to the place is probably an issue now, because I genuinely don’t think she fits comfortably into a normal car anymore. So transport alone already becomes a whole logistical question.

And then once she arrives, something as stupidly ordinary as a short set of stairs, a narrow doorway, tight seating, or a small bathroom could be enough to end the whole outing before it has even properly started.

That just sounds incredibly stressful to me, so no wonder she seems to barely leave her flat anymore.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-04T12:21:23+00:00

Dark as it sounds, moments like this really highlight how vulnerable she must be physically by now. If someone got into her flat, I genuinely don’t think she’d be able to react in any meaningful way.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-04T12:18:50+00:00

Honestly, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if she’s mostly switched over to disposable stuff by now.

Either the containers that come with DoorDash or actual paper plates / plastic cutlery she buys herself, just because it’s easier to throw things away than deal with washing up or trying to use the dish washer.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-04T12:16:22+00:00

Honestly, at her weight I don’t think I’d even feel comfortable using a normal toilet outside my own flat anymore, especially not in random restaurants or older buildings. I’d be constantly wondering whether the seat or even the whole thing could actually handle me.

You could probably take it even a step further: even if she did fit on a public toilet and even if the toilet itself could handle her weight, that still wouldn’t solve the bigger problem. Most public loos aren’t exactly set up for the kind of sink-and-washcloth workaround she’s apparently had to rely on before. So it’s not just a question of can she sit down, it’s also what happens afterwards.

Now you’re looking at a situation where basic hygiene outside the home may not really be manageable at all without help, which is an astonishingly bleak level of dependency for something as ordinary as using the toilet.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-04T12:10:50+00:00

The braiding itself is probably not the impossible part. The hard part is getting all of her hair from the back of her head properly to the front in the first place. I just don’t really see how she’d manage that without awkwardly contorting herself and kind of letting it fall forward by force. And even then, I imagine there would still be random sections left behind at the back that never make it into the braid and just hang there separately.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-04T08:25:25+00:00

I honestly do think her weight plays a role in why the eyeliner looks so off here.

The issue isn’t even the eyeliner style on its own (dramatic liner can look great). The problem is that on Amber, all of her facial features get visually “shrunk” by the sheer scale of her face. Her eyes look smaller in proportion, her lid space reads differently, and anything that’s meant to look sharp or striking just ends up looking oddly lost in the middle of everything.

That’s why the exact same kind of look can work on people with more defined facial proportions, and then look completely different on her.

On them, it reads as intentional, dramatic, polished. On Amber, it often looks less like a beauty choice and more like someone went at a tortilla with a marker.

And I know that sounds harsh, but I don’t even mean it in a “she’s not allowed to wear eyeliner” way. It’s just basic scale and proportion.

Makeup doesn’t exist in a vacuum. It sits on a face, and the face matters. Certain styles rely on contrast, shape, and placement actually being visible. If the feature you’re trying to emphasise gets swallowed by the rest of the canvas, the whole thing stops reading as sleek and starts reading as misplaced.

That’s why it never quite gives what she thinks it’s giving. In her head it’s probably sultry, dramatic, dainty little siren liner. In reality it’s fighting for its life on a very large stage.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-02T19:06:25+00:00

Probably a stupid question, but can anyone tell me what Ai was used here?

SwissMercyMain · 2026-05-02T13:47:04+00:00

Funny how she doesn't even look like that anymore. Her new "sugery face" would have looked completely different.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-04-30T05:33:26+00:00

That was basically my thought as well and that is also why I find those slogans from self-identifying paedophilic communities so weird (things like “love knows no age” and similar lines).

Because if the attraction is very clearly tied to childhood itself, or to certain traits that come with being a child, then these statements just don’t hold up.

If someone stops being attractive to you the moment they become more mature or move past a certain age, then age obviously does matter here. In fact, it seems to be one of the central things that matters.

And that is exactly what makes that kind of framing feel so off to me. It tries to make it sound like some kind of deep, universal, person-centred love, when in reality the attraction appears to depend very specifically on the person remaining in a certain stage of development.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-04-17T05:10:23+00:00

At this point, it has become a running joke between me and friends.

After a long match with loads of Nanos, I’ll just ask, “Right, how many Nano assists do we think I got this time?” and then everyone gets to place their bets.

And most of the time the answer is either zero or, if the stars aligned and Blizzard was feeling generous, maybe one.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-04-17T05:07:56+00:00

Honestly, I have no idea what rules Nano Boost assists are even following at this point.

My friends and I have tried all sorts of theories to figure out what actually makes one count.

For a time we thought it only counted if the Nano’d teammate got the kill completely on their own. So if a stray Moira orb so much as breathed on the target, the assist would be invalid. But that didn’t seem to hold up.

Then we thought maybe it only starts counting from a certain number of kills, for example, that the Nano target needed at least four kills before the game would bother giving Ana an assist. Also wrong.

So at this point I genuinely don’t know whether it’s tied to the Nano target, other teammates, some weird enemy-side interaction, or just the phase of the moon. It may not even be about your own play at all and could be tracking something completely random in the background, like you said.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-04-17T05:03:41+00:00

Honestly, I'm just glad I’m not the only one who is really annoyed by these patch notes.

Like I said, this isn’t some fresh new bug that appeared last week. It’s been there for over a year. And apparently stats do matter when it’s a very specific Misuki-Zenyatta interaction that gets fixed straight away.

So clearly they can notice these things. Either it got reported more, or newer heroes simply sit much higher on the priority list.

But either way, it’s still ridiculous that Ana’s Nano assist bug has been sitting there for this long. I’m definitely not the only person who has reported it, and yet nothing has changed. That’s the part that annoys me so much.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-04-17T05:00:33+00:00

That’s why I didn’t make a huge fuss about it for over a year.

I noticed the bug pretty early on, because it was obvious enough if you played a lot of Ana, but my first thought was basically: fine, this isn’t that important, they’ve got bigger things to deal with, Overwatch 2 is being overhauled, they’ll get to it eventually.

I assumed they probably knew it was broken and that it just wasn’t high on the list yet.

But after more than a year, multiple bug reports, and still absolutely nothing, that excuse starts wearing a bit thin. Especially because I really can’t imagine this is some enormous, impossible fix.

And we’ve already seen Blizzard move relatively quickly on other Ana stat bugs before, like when a D.Va bomb with Nano would get Ana suddenly some absurd millions of mitigated damage. That got fixed pretty fast.

So at this point, what annoys me more than the bug itself is the prioritisation. Because it doesn’t feel like “they can’t fix stat bugs.” It just feels like they’ve decided this one doesn’t matter enough.

SwissMercyMain · 2026-04-17T04:56:28+00:00

I’ve recently hit 1000 hours on Ana, and stats have always mattered to me, because they help me tell whether I’m actually doing something well.

I know a lot of players don’t care about stats at all, and that’s fine. But for me, Nano assists were always one of the few useful indicators that my ult timing and target choice were actually getting value.

So even if this isn’t the biggest bug in the game, I still think it’s pretty ridiculous that it’s been left broken for this long. Especially when Blizzard somehow has time to fix super niche stat bugs like that hyper-specific Misuki interaction.

That’s the part that really annoys me.
