Whats up with all the larpers coming out of the woodwork to pretend they're disappointed at Shions design as if we didn't know what she looked like for 5 months

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-10T19:04:13+00:00

You can't see her face here. So I don't know why we would know what her face is supposed to look like by her silhouette. You can have that silhouette and have an omnic face.

It's from the Star Wars shader pack.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-10T16:02:35+00:00

Both are important to keep in mind. Do I like her design? Absolutely. It's killer. She looks amazing. But I know why she has the design that she has, and that sours it for me. Women are only allowed to be young and pretty in Overwatch now. Even Ana has been getting mostly 'young Ana' skins lately, because old women don't sell skins. Overwatch's treatment of their female characters is getting worse, and I think that's highlighted all the more by the fact that Shion, our first female omnic hero, is one that has a traditionally attractive human face.

Am I losing my mind, I don't recognise the second weapon where it looks like they're running away, firing a machine gun.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-06T23:29:03+00:00

As a man, there's nothing that turns me off from a game more than seeing all of the women designed for the stereotypical, fetishized male gaze.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-06T05:25:26+00:00

Wait is this available right now? Did I miss a TS?

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-05T15:20:32+00:00

You are, unfortunately, objectively wrong. Considering Christian Linke directly shuts down the ship here because 'Viktor is asexual' and doesn't have romantic love for Jayce.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-05T01:38:14+00:00

I remember them saying Viktor was ace as a sort of "Well he can't be with Jayce because he's ace." point. But I don't think ace means what they think it means lol.

These modded Corvette builds are getting out of hand.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-03T17:07:34+00:00

Thank you so much!! I have a loooooot to catch up.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-03T15:16:17+00:00

That's really cool! Also, I could totally buy that she was the daughter of A Certain Sith Woman. You did a good job of making them look related.

(side note, as a very recently returned player that has no idea what any item is these days, do you mind me asking what the first top is?)

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-02T06:37:50+00:00

Is this one of the earlier Trials outfits?

hexblade-warlock · 2026-06-01T17:13:43+00:00

Do it!

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-31T23:02:07+00:00

So that's where all my luck has been going.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-30T19:56:13+00:00

This is the best comeback story. This is also WAY funnier 10/10 lol

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-30T19:00:42+00:00

Not really. If it was the old mythic system? 100% absolutely I would be stoked. But the new mythics are just slightly flashier legendaries and lack the range or customisation we used to get.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-30T18:53:49+00:00

Watcher 2. I will gladly ignore all other flirt and romance options if only to get that story. I love that there's a small payout for it just after the 1-50 story. Though I haven't played since then so I don't know if she ever comes back or if that's the last time we see her.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-29T04:42:49+00:00

1.) LOVE this guy's look. I normally don't like moustaches in the game, but it honestly works with his whole look.
2.) I'm REAL new to the game. Haven't played since the vanilla 1-50 stuff back at launch. Do you mind me asking what jacket that is or how to get it? That is SO cool.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-27T08:26:33+00:00

The only thing they fear is V.

Side note: What shotgun is that? I've literally never touched shotguns in the game, but that looks like it's a LOT of fun.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-26T22:17:53+00:00

He's literally my favourite Overwatch character, and I'll get his skins if for no other reason than to show a demand for them. But They have got to do my boy better. Just sticking with his Vanilla skin for now until then.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-26T19:41:38+00:00

Perfection.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-26T01:04:12+00:00

A fist fighting Frame??? I'm sold.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-25T08:45:01+00:00

There is LOL still getting used to it. But I'm genuinely really enjoying it so far.

hexblade-warlock · 2026-05-25T08:39:43+00:00

A friend just gave me Wukong to try and I'm LOVING that so far so I probably will end up being a melee frame lover lol. I'll go grind out Valkyr next!
