I have no idea, who these characters are. But they vibe.
Yeah that’s what. Mirage isn’t edgy. He’s insecure making as cocky. There are layers to his personality.
Wraith comes off as harsh, but she’s had a rough life.
I agree that some of the kill quips don’t match their personalities at times.
It doesn’t matter what the underlying reasons for their personalities are lore-wise, if none of that comes through to a casual player.
One of my favorite legends is Horizon, but she doesn’t have a single quip that matches who she is and isn’t a cringy gamer-burn.
As fucked as overwatch has become, the pre-game character conversations are masterful in comparison to Apex. There’s some of that, in squad mate thank-yous, but even that stuff is written to be adversarial 75% of the time.
Why!? It’s a squad based game, but most of the charachters can’t keep it to themselves how they’re only co-operating with each other for the most selfish of reasons!
