      @F1er 4 년 전 +105

      William Crist erm... he was overpowered in the first year of overwatch, maybe, when no one knew how to fight him. Now? Honestly I think he’s the worst character in the game. He can dish out damage, yes, but with any coordination or like one ultimate your team should be able to dislodge a bastion.

    • @F1er
      @F1er 4 년 전 +29

      Tyler Wheeler Tyler Wheeler there are a variety of things you can do. First off, dive comp works well. Simultaneously jumping on bastion with Winston, D.Va, and two flankers should be enough to dislodge him, especially with defense matrix available to eat up his return fire as you assassinate him.
      If you don’t want to do dive, you can also fight fire with fire and run a bastion and some shield tanks of your own, then just shred enemy shields and bastion faster than they can break yours. Junkrat helps with this because of his insane shield break, and mercy damage boost will help your bastion destroy shields faster too. Also Baptiste’s lamp is amazing because if you place it behind cover, your bastion gets 5 seconds of literal immortality during which he can melt the enemy bastion with no consequences.
      If you can’t kill the bunker comp with coordination alone, ultimates work. Dragonstrike and self destruct forces bastion to move or die, during which your team can rush him and kill him when he’s vulnerable while relocating. (Lucio speedboost is also useful here if you aren’t using dive heroes.) Sym’s wall can completely block his sight lines on you guys, EMP literally nullifies bastion AND all the shields protecting him, riptire can destroy they entire comp provided your junk is good enough to sneak it behind them, sound barrier or trans gives your team the tankiness to ignore his damage and outright kill him... the list goes on.
      The main reason bastion is annoying is not because he’s OP, but because countering him takes a lot more coordination than playing bunker with him. That’s why you see him in lower ranks but in higher ranks where people are able to work together more fluidly, he isn’t very good.
      Sorry for the essay lmao

      Also it stands in a way so that its hand is on the left side, and its gun is on the right. I see it as a symbolism, the hand is its sentient, "human" side, and the gun is its "follow orders" side.

    After the new overwatch shorts I believe omnics show a red glow when they choose to continue working with Anubis and a blue glow when they choose to live a new life, so when bastion flashes red it is not because his programming is taking over, it's because he's following anubis' orders. Even though anubis is long shutdown at this point it's orders are still there and therefore bastions eye turns red when following said order. I like this idea because it means instead of bastion being controlled by his programming it means bastion is struggling to decide whether he wishes to continue their original war or wether he wants to work for peace.
    Or red just means grr I'm violent

    Forget movies with actors. How about you become the Pixar of YA and adults?
    This is just magnificent.

    • @remliqa

      for a second there I misread that as yaoi adults.

    • @HaploidCell
      @HaploidCell 7 년 전 +12

      Not my style. But, hey, it's Blizzard, and based on their work here I'd say they also could make BANK on that sector as well ;D

    • @HaploidCell
      @HaploidCell 7 년 전 +8

      Yup. I'd love to see something like that. As seen in the Warcraft movie, the real life actors stick out like sore thumbs in an otherwise beautiful CGI landscape.
      Just leave em out. Or create equally comic-esque charicatures, with superhero-chins and triangle-shaped torsos :D

    • @remliqa
      @remliqa 7 년 전 +1

      HaploidCell I think the problem with the live actors in Warcraft have more to do with the lackluster acting/script.It pretty much shows when Orc character with less screentime /dialogues have more depth to them than real live "acting".

      I hope not, when you say YA, it reminds me of those YA films, so, please no.
      Pixar films are deeper than you think, YA, adults, children, all are included, it's universal.

    Easily the best OW short.
    No text hints, no narration, no someone explaining. Only sound and image to talk to the viewer and let him feel the story.
    Just like Tartakovsky's "Primal"

    No matter how many times i see these animations, it amazes me how good Blizzard's art team is to be able to pull this stuff off. All the little details, the way the dirt crumbled around bastion as he stood up, the way the grass deformed when he walked on it, the sun coming through the trees, the way the water pooled in his hand, and the way the long grass swayed in the wind all looked incredible.
