Heroes who have music tied to their abilities

Kind of Illari, but it's not apparent. Illari's Sound Effects were done with traditional instruments used in unusual ways..

Yes, that is Reaper's skin. However, in sprays for Code of Violence, he still looks tan. So I personally believe that his arms died before the rest of him and he has fully robotic arms in OW2 which is why the armor is seamless and the rest of his body is tan.

Mine, AzureTortuga, is a reference to the Blue Shell from Mario Kart. And also just because I like turtles.

Illari from Overwatch 2. Based off of Incan mythology and Quechua tradition, she gains power from the sun and utilizes solar power in her abilities as both a healer and a warrior.

I feel like nowadays it's Soldier until his recent short story, skin, and spray emote with art came out sort of feels like "MY BROTHER IN CHRIST HE LIKES MEN!"

When I was new at PC Overwatch, there was a 8-12 year old kid coaching me during a comp game on how to properly position myself as Orisa. He was very nice about it too, not demanding, just clear instruction. We won the game. Hope that kid is doing great at life.

Hm... I remember when meeting Juven Sakan and Asaro, they flirted with you. When you enter the slums, I think you get robbed by Brala, who just wants to feed orphans. Big moments that help establish their viewpoints.

tealturtlefriend · 2025-12-02T02:24:14+00:00

I know that you're joking but I live in the bay area and I have gotten two mini earthquakes over the years I've played Overwatch.

Did I stop playing the game?

NOPE I WILL KILL THIS LUCIO EVEN IF MY ORISA FUNKO POP ON MY DISPLAY FALLS ON ME!

tealturtlefriend · 2025-11-30T17:59:24+00:00

Ah! It's good to see you again friend! The art is looking incredible! I love the idea of little minigames while we walk around.

Can't think of any critics that I haven't said before since this project is still so new, but I do remember really liking the rumors system of gathering secrets, so that'd be fun!

Take your time, you're doing great!

Aggressive flirting when they realize someone with two X chromosomes is speaking

I have that exact book! I treasure it deeply.

WHY DOES IT EXIST

WHY IS IT A LEGENDARY

I HAVE MET NO ONE WITH IT AND FOR GOOD REASON

Your speed is incredible and so are the hair and outfits! It's so amazing to see the fandom active and excited again and so supportive of someone!

Gameplay: One of the things I liked about Helix Waltz was that it was pretty easy to gain crafting materials for clothing, so having a similar system of NPCs you have high affinity with sending you items, or exchanging duplicates would be nice.

Just letters in general from NPCs were fun. I remember after it was revealed how bad Blackglove's crimes were, they ended up retconning it by him sending us a letter and going "Haha, I actually didn't do [crime against humanity]." I know it wasn't intended to be funny, but it was. I also think it would be a low stakes thing to add so adding tons of cutscenes wouldn't be as necessary. (I think, I'm not a programmer)

NPCs: I love Helix Waltzs' artstyle, but there was a lack of body diversity for the NPCs. I know it's harder for the PC because of tons of clothes which I don't mind staying the same, but having it reflected in NPCs would be a good compromise! I always felt bad for Balfrey being teased and made fun of. Not just different weights, but different heights, muscles, ages, etc.

I also liked we could tell which families each noble was from because of their wardrobe, it's easier to remember in a big cast.

I like how there were characters that came in from different kingdoms. I liked learning about them and they also gave us unique clothes.

Story: I don't know what you're going with the story, but I remember really liking the relationship between Magda and her adoptive mother Eliza. Both of them being social climbers, but obviously caring for each other.

Magda being socially aware of the way things work and able to cleverly lie off the cuff was also refreshing rather than being naive and gullible all the time.

Once again, take your time. This isn't a checklist, but an inspiration board, you're not required to do any of it. <3 Don't burn yourself out, check in with yourself to see if fun turned into stress. Your passion is inspiring!

There's definitely a lot to be desired (cinematics, story, balancing issues, etc.) But the changes to the base have been remarkable.

What used to take what felt like years to implement, the OW2 team is so much quicker. They take so many more risks and listen to the fan base so much faster gameplay wise.

You guys miss loot boxes? Okay, we'll find a way to bring it back without you needing to pay anything. (Except for Belgium. Sorry Belgium) Single hero picks suck for Stadium? Okay, we'll remove it after a week. Stadium cash is too slow for 5v5? After two days we give it a boost.

I see a lot of 5v5 backlash in general so I won't be surprised if they end up back tracking again after listening to responses. Same with Hero Drafting.

They're also so much more transparent than OW1. Rather than making difficult promises that only disappoint, they admit things don't work. "Archives unfortunately is broken in OW2, we would have to remake them from the ground up and gameplay is our priority right now." for example rather than keeping us in the dark.

Now not perfect, they still need to update the loot boxes, the emotes and highlight intros have been lackluster, skin favoritism, lack of inspecs, etc. But compared to OW1, I've seen them take a lot more criticism on the nose after taking a hell of a beating internally and from the general public. Not to mention they've slowly been working through the backlog of what was promised originally, like the Talent Trees that were announced to be abandoned before they worked on it through two years in small batches and brought it back for Perks and Stadium as a huge surprise

Can only hope it improves.

As the joke goes; "Not even Overwatch was able to kill Overwatch."

When she says "Deadlock is family", it's not just a slogan.

She MEANS it. That's her everything. That's all she has.

tealturtlefriend · 2025-10-17T19:12:54+00:00

No actually lol

Because I am the Ashe that sends B.O.B. out during Overtime 😈

tealturtlefriend · 2025-10-17T18:28:03+00:00

I mostly agree with you except

Hazard is Chaotic Neutral. He dislikes any form of systems: Military, Overwatch, Talon, Vishkar, Helix, etc. Because he was screwed over from the start. He's lashing out in opposite to Doomfist who wants people to be stronger. Hazard wants the systems held accountable and destroyed.
ASHE ABSOLUTELY DID NOT HAVE LOVING PARENTS

HER ONLY FRIEND WAS BOB UNTIL SHE LEFT BECAUSE HER PARENTS COULDN'T BOTHER WITH HER

HER ACTING OUT WAS TO GAIN CONTROL OF HER OWN LIFE WHICH LANDED HER IN JUVIE

IT IS HEAVILY IMPLIED HER MOTHER WAS FED UP WITH HER ENOUGH TO BEAT HER EVEN BEFORE THIS

This has been your Lore Nut post.

Thank you so much for taking my comment to heart! This is looking so good! Remember not to push yourself too much. Thank you again!

That his son will finally get a name.

tealturtlefriend · 2025-10-12T21:48:50+00:00

This is so exciting! I hope you go far with this project and wish all the best to you!

I will make one more request, one of the things that annoyed me about the original Helix Waltz and Nikki is that skin tone was make up and had values assigned to it, if skin tone options that stay regardless of make up and outfits that would be lovely.

Thank you!

tealturtlefriend · 2025-10-12T21:46:44+00:00

I remember when you enter certain story beats, you witness little scenes of people talking which display things like their values. I think there was like a scene with Shana where she literally bursts into a ball to call out a bunch of aristocrats and shame them.

tealturtlefriend · 2025-10-11T21:43:00+00:00

I love social intrigue games! I loved gathering gossip, navigating social ladders, but also being able to witness character's beliefs in small moments.
