Looks like it could be fun, though there is a whole lot of THIS IS VERY OBVIOUSLY A TF2 CLASS going on in the trailer. Hopefully it stays a fast shooter instead of leveling and buying items for 20 minutes every game, and that they won't fill it with dumb LoL poo poo like massive grinds to unlock things or leveling up or runes. Though they probably will.

The snipers look fun, though. Being a useless piece of poo poo and drain on my team sniper is my favorite part of playing team fpses.

And inflate-a-butt aside, the character designs are neat and varied.

I don't think they're doing MOBA poo poo in this where you grind creeps for a while to get exp and money, but they mentioned something about making the gameplay "less lethal" which really confuses me. Like, I hope to god they don't pull that poo poo Brink had where everyone took a dozen hits to drop even if you shot them in the head with a rifle.

Well, people seemed to be dying pretty instantly in the trailer (because it's a trailer), so maybe they were just trying to allay fears from people who thought that would be the case in the game? Just throwing them a bone here. A dozen head shots to a kill would definitely suck, but then developers also seem to have decided based on nothing that people hate games where you can die easily.

Yeah, Blizz doesn't have the best recent track record when it comes to cash shops.

I wonder if they'll have the balls to put in a class limit so you don't end up with 4 snipers on your team. And hopefully they stay away from payload-type gamemodes because that poo poo is truly awful.

seeing as how its a blizzard game expect all of the following:

no all-chat

Not knowing anything about this guy beyond that rant, he's not entirely wrong. There is a hell of a lot more variety among the male characters to the extent that Hanzo and Reaper are the only relatively normal guys (and also both are incredibly boring in every way), while the female cast has Inflate-a-butt Totally Not Nova, "Please love this mascot" Tracer, a fairly boring techno-angel nurse, and Symmetra who doesn't really have any defining features. I'll definitely give them credit for saying their characters are older than 30 and not all being white, though!

Though I think he didn't notice Pharah is a woman. I am really looking forward to jetpack Samus.

I think he's like Anita Sarkeesian's boyfriend/writer or something, and he has a point in that there could be a little more diversity in body types in this game (although no fatties, either male or female because gently caress that poo poo). But fighting games have a pretty decent variety, IMO, and I think that's why Evo is so diverse in comparison to poo poo like E3 or PAX.

Characters only need to be different enough to be quickly identifiable by players. Anything more is completely irrelevant from a gameplay perspective.

Also lol at thinking videogames are oppressing people or will ever cause any social change, what a loser.

It's actually closer to Gatchaman/Battle of the Planets. Bird helmet and everything.

Or it's a reference to the old HB cartoons.
