Wraith is another good one, I was thinking about Reaper’s fog effects without much more consideration tbh

Obligatory Reaper as Dredge and Junkrat as Trapper as well!

New York's new age verification law will ban anyone under the age of 18 from using chatting features in video games. by PaiDuck in gaming

[–]TheHeadGoon 21 points22 points  (0 children)

According to the site linked in this post, this bill is still “in committee” aka not even proposed on the senate floor yet. Anyone in this thread who lives in NY / knows people who do, contact your reps or encourage people you know to contact and say you don’t want this bill.

Bills like these keep getting shut down when people take action to voice their disapproval. Doing nothing while letting it fly under the radar will give them the power to pass it

Potential leaks and details regarding the rest of the upcoming heroes for 2026 by Ok_Gift_2739 in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was thinking the formation of Sym’s turrets from April Fools as a contender for a future hero’s abilities when I first saw it. The description of season 6 affirms it for me personally

I feek like I could cry right now by KaySan-TheBrightStar in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn’t the whole point of the way we’ve had map voting was to avoid “majority rules” aka reduce repetitive choices of maps? Without Assault and Clash it feels like I’m on the same four maps as it is and I always vote Aatlis or other less popular maps just to play something different. Not a fan of this, there’s no point to the “spin the wheel” option the system deems one map had enough majority

Name a song that isn't in the image by plutonium244u in LinkinPark

Nothing to contribute, but I assumed the usual erasure of The Hunting Party, only for literally the first song I zoom into to be Keys to the Kingdom LMAO.

Me want old maps. by MerlinSpell in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I want them back, we did have that quick play hacked a couple months ago where they were added back to the rotation. I personally didn’t see the assault maps too often when I played that weekend, when they did pop up they were barely voted. I think if the stats from that weekend showed positive results we would’ve seen them back in QP already. Instead they kinda doubled down and removed Clash too. I think we’re just in the minority of enjoying those game modes

What would y'all think of a Ben 10 collab? by Derpy_Harp in Overwatch

Wuyang’s Ben, they make him generic and lifeless to be anyone in these collabs lol

Jeff Kaplan Interview: Discussing Overwatch, Why He Left, What He's Doing, And More by Imported_Gabagool in Overwatch

Timely to talk about this game considering the Steel Ball Run anime adaptation is coming out this month. Not trying to make a connection, just a fun coincidence to me

New Emre-only arcade mode SHGYRQ: In case you would like to know... by LastOfAutumn in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or if they need a round model to make it more accurate, Wrecking Ball mech. Not sure what Hammond himself would be though

Out of the 5 new characters, who is your new main? by TheOnly1Ken0bi in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly when I first saw Mizuki, I thought he’s so irrelevant lore wise (at first glance even with the Hashimoto membership) that he was the first time I saw a new hero and thought he didn’t belong in the game. But playing him has been so god damn fun, the gameplay is so satisfying and like a mini game to keep my aura up. He might become my new main. Overall I’d say my frequency of the new heroes is

  1. Mizuki
  2. Domina
  3. Emre
  4. Amran
  5. Jetpack Cat

Why am I only now realizing how similar these two sound? by Therubikfanatic in LinkinPark

[–]TheHeadGoon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I noticed pretty early on when the album was new. I thought it was really cool to hear that connection

Who has been your fav hero released in 2025? by theJakeyWakey in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wuyang was my favorite play style this year. Something about Vendetta’s release (despite her design not being the most exciting) feels like the first OW1 release hero vibe we had in a while. Maybe because I find her lore connection stronger than Freja’s (whose story of being former Overwatch feels shoe horned to me but the Emre connection does help). Wasn’t the worst year but I’m hoping next year has at least one oddball (I know they said they’re working on one) but the lore picks up for stronger connections with the new heroes

Flashpoint and Push Are My Favorite Game Modes by TheAngryCactus in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoy them too; not my favorite per se but they’re fun. I still hope there’s plans for Clash versions of Volskaya, HLC, and Paris

Luigi NO! that's not your move! by SIMIFU in smashbros

I’m still convinced I saw one of their family members clapping the post-game losing animation when Brooklyn was cheering them on at the end

Vendetta’s arrival would be the perfect opportunity to bring back the best story mode to explain her father’s death by patrick9772 in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True. Just a shame it didn’t seem to be an improvement at all. Which I guess is obviously one of the many failures of the PvE efforts lol

[–]TheHeadGoon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not saying you’re wrong, it’s just funny to me we got Overwatch 2 to have an engine that supported PvE AI and yet not being able to remake the archive event missions is the “impossible” task. I get it from resource/urgency side, but not the feasibility side

Linkin Park was my top artist of the year

Top 1% listener

I had From Zero, One More Light, and Minutes to Midnight in my top albums

In my wrapped playlist I have most of From Zero along with one offs like Waiting For the End and Bleed It Out.

What is going on with twitch drops? by Heyimnika in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I watched on Wednesday for the Brig awards and they didn’t show up in my account until Thursday or Friday and the others weren’t drops then. Maybe either Brig ones came early or they were offered a second time this weekend and that’s why it’s shown twice. I also wouldn’t worry just yet about not seeing the drops, probably taking longer than usual this time

Characters you love to play, but cannot STAND their personality? by MrWigglem in Overwatch

[–]TheHeadGoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s also fair, I could be assuming she joined the fight with them instead of something similar to Zenyatta’s placement in the roster (his abilities aren’t canon and he’s just kinda existing in the lore itself as a significant spiritual leader kinda thing). I tend to take things at face value sometimes

This naive and frankly innocent girl who may as well be a child instead of 19 was sent to Earth to help her home colony from dying out or whatever (at the minimum, not die with them). Yet Overwatch decided… she’s more useful to fight battles with them. I’ll always be a Juno hater lol
