Would you watch an Overwatch cartoon?
>>150196986Overwatch should have been a cartoon
>>150196986I watch them all the time :^)
>>150196986>Would you watch an Overwatch cartoon?We already have TF2 sfm and gmod animations anon
Uhh... No!
>>150196986An Overwatch cartoon in the vein of GI Joe at the height of its popularity would've been great. Nowadays, I wouldn't trust them to even do a simple animatic without it coming off as hackneyed and preachy.
>>150196986Overwatch doesn't have a very interesting lore or world to be honest. You're only watching for the characters.
>>150196986Sure
>>150197143I'm gonna blight on your fucking emesis until my turbulance makes me sees and soos
>>150196986Only if Tracer is the comic relief with hot body
>>150196986I would have. There was a period of YEARS where all anyone wanted out of Overwatch was a cartoon. The game's promotional and side material promises us all of this lore and plotlines and characterization that the game couldn't deliver, and thats FINE but we needed another outlet for it. An ongoing comic would have been okay, but a cartoon would have been ideal.But now... I'm not sure anyone cares enough to go back to giving a shit about Overwatch. The franchise has no goodwill left in it anymore, they thoroughly pissed it all away. First with the esports focus for OW1 over time that made it more and more focused on their owverwatch league players and fucking with the game for the rest of us to try and force a given meta at the highest level of play, which pushed away casual players who didn't care about that and would never in their lives be in a match with ANYONE who would ever make use of these new skillset changes. And then Overwatch "2" happened and melted whatever good feelings were left in the community due to the blatant cash-grabbiness of it and the broken promises of new features and game modes. And thats on top of it being revealed that Blizzard overall was full of just sexual predators. If they made an Overwatch cartoon now that was, like, Arcane tier? That might be enough to draw people back in. But otherwise for most people this bridge is thoroughly burned.
Overwatch doesn’t exist. It’s OVERWATCH 2.
>>150196986Not making an Overwatch cartoon within the first couple of years was the biggest mistake Blizzard made. It made Pokemon, it saved Cyberpunk, and it made people believe Riot were something other than hacks for a brief period.
>>150196986Maybe like a decade ago. I'm sorry man but that ship has sailed man.
>>150196986I don't like Overwatch's theme. Boring and uninspired 2010's art style.
>>150198379Nah
>>150196986Does the countless amount of "animation" I consume count? If so then yes x100
>>1501969869 years ago I would've.>>150197143>TF2FFS, why couldn't have Valve just listened to Adult Swim?>>150198327It's amazing how Blizzard ruined Overwatch in less than a decade.
>>150199267>It's amazing how Blizzard ruined Overwatch in less than a decade.Right? There was a time when I was so in love with Overwatch and its characters, but I never even installed Overwatch 2 and every time I think about the franchise now all I feel is bitterness.
>>150196986>Would you watch an Overwatch cartoon?Yes, if it was as good as Arcane or Spiderman.
>>150199347Even as a complete outsider, I find it fascinating how OW seemingly went from being probably the most recognizable new IP of mainstream gaming to being almost completely irrelevant now. It's like the vidya equivalent of MTV.
>>150199480Blizzard are Best of Breed when it comes to killing the goose that lays golden eggs
>>150199480Its a fantastic case of mismanagement. The idea that they didn't jump on things to at least put out a blatant cash-grab movie at the height of their popularity really is baffling. They could have easily done a franchise of films, or a show, or something. Instead they took the esports pill and threw all of their money at something that people not only didn't like all that much, but which baited them into making their game worse.One of the many strengths of early Overwatch was that there were characters that fit all skill levels. You could put your little brother in on Lucio and yeah he might not be the best player in the world but all he has to do is follow the group and mash his buttons sometimes and he's still contributing to the team. But as Overwatch League took over, it became less about fun and different skillsets and more about "How can we completely redesign this character so that people who have monster energy drink for blood and illegally take adderal for the speed boost can maximize their twitch reflexes for epic gamer moments?" Which just makes everyone play the same over time and ruins characters that people liked in their earlier forms.Oh, early Symmetra. I will miss the times we shared together, dancing around slow turning tanks and melting them with our dinky microwave lockon gun. Our love was not optimal or skill based, but it sure was hilarious.
>>150196986No, just fucking no.
>>150196986yes but only if its good. they hired good writers and animators. the fact they didn't do a cartoon by now is baffling. at the least we still got porn until then.
Honestly if it was a show based on talon shenanigans then yeah. Reaper sombra widowmaker etc
>>150197138SPBPSeriously, this whole IP exists exclusively to make porn meshes and any other engagement with it is just kinda sad. Yes, more sad then wanking to 3d porn, if you can believe that.
>>150196986I would've if they ever actually MADE one instead of spinning their wheels for the better part of a decade because they were afraid of actually advancing the damn story.
>>150199480But MTV took over a decade for it to irrelevant. It took less time for Overwatch.
>>150197224Overwatch was too filled with pushed lgbtq bullshit for it to ever be a decent cartoon
>>150198359Biggest mistake blizz did is not using the wow cinematic animation team to make a full length wow movie
>>150199606OW killed itself when they caved to the tryhards & changed it so you couldn't have 6 people playing Winston on a team. Yeah you'd probably lose but you'd have a fucking good time doing it. Instead unless you had the fastest connection you were relegated to playing someone you didn't like & role-queues just made it even worse
>>150196986Yeah, but when it was still just overwatch 1. Even late overwatch 1 story was starting to falter but has now tanked with overwatch 2.
>>150201172>Movie from the Horde side, orc and tauren and a saucy blood elf team up to Leeroy Jenkins shitI would watch this. The orcs were the best part of Warcraft.
>having to listen to Tracer all the timeAwful
>>150201781She's hot but the voice is really annoying, plus she's gay
A question to anyone who still pays attention to modern overwatch... has ANYTHING of note happened lore or storywise in the past couple of years?
>>150201803Well, at least there wouldn't be a "LET THE KEETSOONAY GUIDE YOU!" every 5 minutes
>>150196986FUCK YOUR TROJAN HORSE THREADSFUCK YOU>>>/v/
>>150202596Shut up, cuckold
>>150202648Piss off /v/ermin
Overwatch is the Bleach of video games: far more people have wanked it to porn of the girls than have ever actually played the game.
>>150196986I actually bought the Overwatch Anthology comic and I never bothered reading it. The only chapter I ever read was the McCree one. Overwatch lore isn't even very good. OK, so there's this rise of the robots rebellion like in Nier: Automata and there is the Overwatch team designed to counter this? I don't really care about all that, it's just not an interesting enough story to even read a comic about.
>>150202750It's especially good for fetish porn. If you have a weird kink I guarantee you there's oodles of art of it featuring Tracer or D.Va or Mercy or Mei or Widowmaker.
>>150196986Eight years ago, sure. Even five years ago, probably. Now? No.
>>150196986before everyone was gay, sure it would have been a 10/10now? not even a 6
