Anime Overwatch

[Astral Rag]

The aesthetic in this game is... Some of the worst bubblegum bullshit I have seen in years.

I agree with Legion

This guy's sister?

Man the Unreal series declined so hard after UT99.

2003/2004 wasn't a bad game but yeah, the original was much better visually

His screenshots don't really prove his own point either. We are much, much better at detection motion than fine background details. And in arena shooters no one ever stands without moving because of the map control elements. So situations like his screenshots, where you'd have to look for a small 3d char that takes some effort to be distinguished from the wall never happen.

That's why it's been played for such a long time with almost no detail textures and super visible models.
And not like I put a screenshot of a spot where you sometimes sit waiting for that armor or delaying the timer. Someone sitting in that spot NEVER happens.

If you need character silhouettes because you feel it's an effort to distinguish players in games like Quake 3, you've got brain damage buddy, get it checked out because not being able to lock onto moving objects is the exception, not the norm. Alternatively you could just kill yourself or at least avoid reproducing as you're clearly a defective individual.

Got it, another guy that shot some bots or played some ffa and "knows" Q3 or action fps in general.

Wow, you're such a cyber athlete. If you need ""high visibility" garbage to play well then you are a shitter and should consider suicide.

 

[BlackAdderBG]

lol at retards complaining about feature that make things better and easier for the eye.

Original UT actually had very high visibility when it came to characters. Many player models had stripes of color over them which were almost toxic compared to backgrounds on map. Maps in UT had fairly drab palettes or dim lighting. When you were dueling against someone with your shock rifle or some other weapon it was easy to see them. Remember those white skinned dudes and gals with flashy armor?
In team matches, there were red and blue teams, and everyone had bright spots of their team color over their uniforms.
One other thing was that 99% of weapons in UT were projectile based or had some tracing effect, and/or splash damage, so aside from sniper rifle you could just shoot into enemy direction and hit, and it was easy to trace enemy when he shot weapons with these effects.

...it doesn't make Overwatch visual style less shit however. These cartoony blizzard dolls over pastoral cartoony landscapes, I'd love to twist their little necks and see them snap.
They could probably get better visibility by putting cartoony characters over more realistic and darker levels instead of making them fight in blooming sakura gardens.

I just want to vomit when I look at this character

 

[abija]

That's a sjw approved Firefall battleframe.

Gearbox is a fairly big name given Borderlands. Hi-rez... meh... didn't they make Global Agenda about five years ago? That was a relative flop, too.

They made smite which is p. succesful, and Tribes Ascend which had a lot of potential before they fucked up.

What happened to Tribes?

stopped being fast

I just want to vomit when I look at this character

I just want to cum on her biceps. It's what got me interested in the game in the first place, too bad they decided to charge a fortune for it.

 

[Metro]

Fixed retail costs -- the bane of huehue's everywhere.

 

[Excidium II]

Indeed. It's specially ridiculous considering the other Blizzard stuff has adjusted prices.

Legacy of the Void - $39.99 -> R$99.90
Legion - $49.99 -> R$129.00
Overwatch - $59.99 -> R$249.99

w0t

it does lend credibility to the theory that they want to milk this retail as much as possible then go F2P.

How much is a loaf of BR bread?

I don't know but a regular Doritos bag or 2L Coke bottle is ~R$6.

 

[Metro]

A 2 liter bottle o' coke is around $1 in the US. 'datz crazy!

Hardly. This is a feature they came up with to patch up bad design.

All post release maps and heroes will be free

Well who would've thought that in todays world Blizzard can still be normal.

 

[Daedalos]

Playing overwatch should be a bannable offense. What a piece of shit game. It screams kiddie CoD shoota with TF elements n other stupid shit.

So when Blizzard went full anime ?

 

[Metro]

The trailer doesn't even make sense because the heroes are fighting... each other... not any generic bad guys.

Maybe those that made the trailer are separate company that is thinking that overwatch is still a mmo game ?

0/10 for me and I don't need to play it to confirm this.

That trailer looks about 1M shittier than WoW.

It's not even at the level of anime, right now it looks like "My Little Pony."

This decline is actually far worse than what Bethesda did to mangle the Fallout IP.

If I were a member of Blizzard's executive management, I would shutdown all operations of the team that shit this one out, give each and every one the pink slip, and sell all current assets to Runic Games so they can make their Fisher-Price ARPG's.

All profits would go to revamping the Diablo IP and to keep the company from embarassing itself further... This IS NOT the quality that the Blizzard brand is know for!

Overwatch has been optimized for Windows XP and will take full advantage of DirectX 9.0c

The visuals are about equal to Pixar's Toy Story #1.
