Not anymore. Now they’re all about the mobile scrubs in China

@TheSupremePatriarch  
I think the PTR only being on PC has more to do that the PC version of the game is the only version they have full control over the distribution of. With console, they have to get every single update approved by Sony and Microsoft first.

@Commander Hoff  
Not just China, anyone with phones. We all got ‘em, right?
 
@SuperSupermario24  
Yeah, but console Pharah has been top tier for years now. They could’ve rolled out some kind of appropriate nerf at this point, its apparent they don’t care.
 
Not that PTR makes much difference anyway. It’s really there to just test for critical bugs, balance stuff they decide on their own with no input whatsoever from the player base.

The piano on the newest map, Paris, apparently has real-life-accurate keys you can shoot to make that note.
 
Lots of different songs you can play!

@YetAnotherBrony  
I wish it was something like a Payload or King of the Hill map.
 
2CP is just the worst mode there is.

So this is the new guy?
 

@Shepherd  
Maybe.
 
It’s also like Lucio meets Moiria

@Shepherd  
What’s this about a new guy?

@Violet Rose in The Rain  
Here.

@YetAnotherBrony  
There’s also an Omnic singer there, and she flinches and complains when you shoot her.
 
You know what’s disappointing? I had hoped the Paris map would have several vantage points like England, making it perfect for Widowmaker.

What’s everyone’s alignment again?

@Shepherd  
I don’t want to go through all of them right now, but the pages on the Overwatch Wiki for every hero lists their affiliation.
 
Baptiste is an ex-Talon member. After he realized what a bad thing he was a part of, he ditched them. (This, of course, did not exactly please Talon, who is now searching for him)

Ashe is fun to play.

I ment as in Roadhog is neutral evil, Hanzo is lawful good extra.

@Shepherd
 
Just off the top of my head….(note: Characters are complex and multi-dimensional; a stated alignment may not fit perfectly).
 
Lawful Good: Reinhardt, Mercy(?)(unsure if she’s LG or Neutral Good), Orisa (can’t get much more Lawful than a peacekeeping robot)
 
Lawful Neutral: Hanzo, Symmetra
 
Lawful Evil: Doomfist(?)(He’s one of the top brass in Talon, that’s Lawful, right?)
 
Neutral Good: Zenyatta, Tracer(?)(she might fit better in Chaotic Good)
 
True Neutral: Bastion
 
Neutral Evil: Tough to say, maybe Reaper and Roadhog?
 
Chaotic Good: Lucio
 
Chaotic Neutral/Evil (These alignments blur together quite often): Sombra, Junkrat

@YetAnotherBrony  
Ashe is definitely Neutral Evil, and Hammond is Chaotic Neutral.

@YetAnotherBrony
 
@Scrabbleman
 
Thanks that helped enough.

@Scrabbleman
 
And then we have characters like McCree who went from Neutral Evil (as part of the Deadlock Gang with Ashe), to True Neutral (as a member of Blackwatch) to Chaotic/Neutral Good (as a self-employed mercenary for hire).

Haven’t been keeping up with ow news recently, but watching a video recently, Mercy gets; are you ready?…
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Another nerf. She can get knocked back while rezzing.

@Cruiser Bruiser
 
sigh

@Cruiser Bruiser  
That’s been in-game for a while now.
 
Seriously, Blizzard, give her some love.

@Violet Rose in The Rain  
Blizzard be like, “what’s that? Another nerf? We got you.”

Why do people keep saying the game is dying?

@Marx
 
I dunno. Maybe it’s because it’s not constantly in everyone’s faces anymore that people think it’s “dying”.

@Marx  
It’s a Blizzard game. It’s kind of a running joke with every single Blizz game. They’re all dying.
 
BUT none of them will ever actually be dead. Blizz still supports their oldest games, and the fanbases for each game always manages to make a small community around each one to keep it going.
