It wasn't that funny
>>387883134it was awful
It was amusing until the end where Junkrat went from quirky/eccentric to retarded.
>>387883134
how can you say that? I thought it was fucking brilliant (and the likes/view count say the same).
>>387883134
it was the only short we're going to get for the two best characters in the game
>>387883134
>Junkrat isn't Roadhogs sissy slave
why did i bother watching this trash.
Why did the whole thing look like it was made in Source Filmmaker? The Dragons, Soldier 76, and Sombra/Reaper/Widowmaker shorts all looked much better.
DUDE
AUSTRALIA
LMAO
>>387883435
The proper animation is supposed to be coming tomorrow
>>387883465
what do you mean "proper animation?"
>>387883558
same quality as the other shorts
>>387883435
I noticed it too. It looks like they ripped the models directly from the game instead of how they did it the other times.
>>387883134
It was cringy, reddit tier "humour" for the cuckold audience that plays this piece of garbage
>>387883894
Obviously not that proudly if we can't see his eyes.
>>387883134
None of them is what it's trying to be. Not funny, not cool, not emotional.
>>387883435
>>387883782
Cause it wasn't an animated short retards. This was made only for the new map.
>>387883894
you could fit a few more buzzwords in there
>>387883134
Overtly cartoony. I HATE overwatchs animators for this. It feels like they learned a classical style from old mickey mouse and bugs bunny cartoons. All the facial expressions are text book as if they just graduated from an art university thats been teaching the same bland style to all its students. Every key frame is overdone. Not to mention roadhog had ZERO lines and wasn't annoyed with junkrat at all. The characters personalities were slightly changed in this... On top of that they stole a good portion of the clip from Shawn of the Dead:

>and wasn't annoyed with junkrat at all.
Uh, did we watch the same thing?
>>387883134
>underage starts to realize that Blizzard isn't that good after they butchered North, joined Activision and put the mainstream pandering on the high gear
>>387884717
Oh, also, Gigantic and Paladins are better games than Overwatch.
>>387884703
No we didnt.
>>387883134
Mei cinematic when?
Atleast Roadhog got some attention
Somebody actually thought this was funny? How the fuck
>>387886213
I liked Roadhog not talking.
>>387883134
When will they say pharmercy is for real?
>>387886249
Because mercy is for roadhog
>>387883134
It was one big cliche. Nothing original at all. They probably even ripped of and plagiarized lots of shit in it.
Who should get a cinematic next?
>>387886717
A better game.
>>387886758
That doesn't make sense anon.
>>387886784
It makes perfect sense, what the fuck are you talking about?
>>387883995
>he truly thinks it's not the new animated short
>>387883134I liked it
>>387886847
I'm talking about a character anon.
>>387885041
Probably cancelled, it was supposed to come out with the antartica map.
>>387883134
I checked three times if I'm watching the right channel. Holy shit the quality of this short took a nose dive.
Like what the fuck Blizzard was always known for their stellar cinematics, what the fuck happened. Did they outsource this one to pajeets? Damn
>>387883134
>racism isnt funny
>>387886979
A character from a different game then.
>>387887076
Then there's no point.
>>387887002
Dude didn't you see that they were hiring female staff to make up for their team being 95% male? This is the shit that women come up with, unfunny jokes, bad animation, shit art direction and just down right shit all around. I can't believe people are defending this, it's literally something that can be done in 5minutes on sfm.
>>387886875
It's not, though.
They said a new short will be premiered on Wednesday.
>>387886987
>He actually believed the Blizz "leaker"
Oh, how gullible you faggots are.
>>387886249
When you stop having shit taste so never
>>387887002
It's not the new short. That comes out tomorrow. This was just for the new map.
>>387883435
Because it uses the ingame assets and was probably made by the same guys who do WoWs cutscenes. The big budget cinematic is on wednesday.
>>387886249
blizzard confirmed mercy is with RH
Best girl cinematic short will be airing later today.
>>387883134
I don't care, that Cowboy Bebop reference was enough to make me like that short.
>>387888826
You actually think Cowboy Bebop was the first to use silhouettes?
>>387888729
They didnt.
>>387888917
They did, sorry.
>>387888865
The music was also very much like Tank. All it was missing was the trumpets.
>>387888865
It wasn't just the silhouettes, idiot.
>>387883134
Worst cinematic so far.
>>387889002
Zen needs a cinematic.
>>387889002
The cinematic is tomorrow.
>>387888941
Proof it.
>>387888646
I sure fucking hope so because if they actually threw animations team down the drain, then nothing is holy to these people anymore.
Bastion movie was kino
What happened?
>>387886249
>shipping two characters together with no synergy just because they're both so fucking boring
>>387889249
Different characters have different behaviours that result in different kinds of animations.
Why is Blizzard so shit at writing? There isn't a single memorable line in the game or any of the shorts/comics.
>>387889249
Lemme Smash verion was better.
>>387889380
>I need healing
>>387883270
This.
Overall I enjoyed it and would be cool to get small stuff like this with new maps.

youd be amazed at how dumb people are
>>387892097
>lack toast in toddler ant
>>387889380
Because it's Blizzard and it's almost always the same guys writing, they just move from game to game so you don't see any sudden improvement. The guy doing the writing for Overwatch was one of the lead writers for Diablo 3 and worked on WoW quests before that.
>>387883134
>tfw you will never get a TF2 shorts series
>tfw this is the "pinnacle" of videogame to tv show style animation
please, I want off this wretched land
>>387883134
i watched it and thought it was fake then saw the other announcement trailer for the map and realized it was real. the short looks like a sfm short and not a short compared to the bastion short or the others the quality is really down here.
>we will at this rate never get an Overwatch TV show
>we will never see Junkrat / Roadhog shenangins juxtaposed with the other character's edgy / cool themes
Worst timeline desu
>>387892269
those emoji copypastas come from these people need we remind you folk
i liked itI main junkrat
>Take two of the most dangerous members of the cast
>Make a wacky comedy short with them, instead of detailing the "worldwide heist spree" in a montage of violence and explosions, all to the tune of some sweet oz rock
>>387883134
I enjoyed it
All the Overwatch cinematics have felt holllow, soulless and forced. Devoid of all natural-feeling characterisation.
Watch literally any Overwatch cinematic and then watch any TF2 Meet The Team video.
>>387892803
lol it's literally tf2 source filmmaker tier
awful
>>387883134
Watch this instead maybe?
https://youtu.be/GLlLQ3LmZWU
>>387888752
It's gonna be the Junkers
Boring jetpack girl can eat shit
overcucks still holding on to this shit game...
Anyone else think Junkertown looks like someone mashed together set pieces from the TF2 launch-era maps? All that desert-industrial scenery..
>>387893667
Watch Beyond Thunderdome
>>387893381
The first wave of those (Heavy, Engineer, Soldier) were absolute kino
>>387888429
They actually hired a sfm porn animator from tumblr
>>387893625
you sound upset
>>387883134
How come this short was made with what looks like the in-game models while most of the other shorts were pre-rendered CG? It looks distractingly like a GMod video.
>>387894132
It's not the actual cinematic, it's coming out later
>>387893667
I got a borderlands vibe from the art style.
>>387893667
Have you never seen Mad Max you dumb fucking cunt?
>>387893797
>>387894783
I know it's meant to be copied from Mad Max, but because Overwatch already copied TF2's art style, their Mad Max copy just looks like a TF2 copy.
>>387893054
Stop being fucking retarded and read the thread.
The actual cinematic is tomorrow.
it was like the tf2 cinematics
but not funny
>>387883134
>american "humor"
>>387883134
Both the game and that video's humor isn't supposed to be funny to you, OP, but 12 year-olds
>Getting this autistic mad about a trailer o f a videogame o f goofy character
You people are pathetic
Meanwhile, a single guy created this in his spare time
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9kmE82QYQg
>>387894909
You tf2 faggots are retards. NOT EVERYTHING IS TF2.
Overwatchs artstyle is more like Pixar or dreamworks.
Agreed. There were absolutely no jokes. Just Junkrat making funny faces and overanimated bullshit.
Even Meet the Soldier, which is pretty outdated, is better than this shit.
>>387884860
Well they're certainly more exclusive
>>387887076
I was thinking paragon because it has actual graphics. Your thoughts, my fellow enlightened contrarian?
>>387896209
Fairly certain that even Howitzer would have more personality than Mei or D.Va

>REDDDDDIIIIIIITTTT
jesus fuck if I had a quarter every fucking time someone yells REDDIT on this board I'd be rich
>>387884860
Why does this snek shares the color pallete of the Evangelion robot ?
>>387889380
I like Mei, but a lot of that relies on the VA's great delivery and making a temperature-based character the designated pun factory isn't that original. Hearing a harmless idealist like Winston say "Would you like to donate your body to science?" is worth a chuckle.
Still, OW kind of lacks the energy and humour of TF2. Everyone speaks slowly as if they were NPCs in a Bethesda games, and there's rarely any emotion. The punchlines are fucking awful ("This is no place for children" / "Who are you calling a child?").
>>387898394
Because purple and green are complementary colours.
I know blizzard always play safe with their humor, still, I will never understand, why overwatch jokes are so typical they look manufactured.
When you need to press kajillion times to explode a rat to get an artifact in WC3 it's looks at least uncommon. When you see Junkrat being Junkrat it's like they made him using stock humor. Every joke is calculated and expected from miles.
I liked junkrat when he was crazy.
Now he is a literal retard and i wish i never got the gold gun for him.
Thanks bliz.
>>387889425
>he thought lemme smash was funny
>>387889556
Back to 9gag son
>>387883558
this isn't a cinematic this was just some machinima. The actual cinematic that uses the higher poly models is tomorrow.
So are they mad max allusions from Australia or goblins from Kezan?
>>387883134
It was pretty weak.
Junkrat behaved like someone that is trying really hard to ape the real Junkrat.
>>387889556
What is it about that line that makes it so funny. The delivery just has the perfect amount of obnoxiousness in it.
It was embarrassing as shit to watch. It made me seriously question my life choices. why I spend time watching what is essentially a cartoon aimed at 8 year old childtren
>>387899613
Well it wouldn't be so bad if it was cute. But it was just forced and artificial.
>>387898129
Lel triggered reddit cuck. Reddit fag from reddit.com/reddit
Comparing this and Overwatch's banter in general to TF2's "Meet the Team"/TF Comics really shows how underappreciated the work that goes into comedic writing is.
