I'M GOING FOR THE TOBLERONE

I love this discipline tracker. Now I can know who is a salty baby before the start of next season!

[Delthazar]

who knew Lou Dobbs rolls Tracer



also have some damn good Dragons wallpaper

[Delthazar]

but y'all have seen his alternate skins right, y'all saw this coming



e: also what if Zarya was your girlfriend

[Delthazar]

by far my new favourite form of salt compilation

I like the screenshot where they fill in the **** with (dick), just in case you can't figure it out by context.

Soldier 76's visor doesn't just give him aimbot. It's also his gaydar. :fingerguns:

[Delthazar]

Target-rich environment.

[John Layfield]

More like Hole There 69, am I right?

PUSH THE PAYLOAD

[DHerder222]

This is one of those things where it's absolutely never acknowledged in the game, right? It only exists in outside media, and can therefore be completely ignored if desired?

Geez, people are always eager to whine about something.

[Delthazar]

Heh, yeah, it's usually just part of the supplemental comics and stuff, though sometimes there are in-game hints, like that photo of 76 and his boyfriend might be on a wall somewhere. But there are occasional PVE missions with a story focus (and there's a new one of these coming up for Ana and 76) so maybe it'll get a nod in-game eventually.

Folks with sharper eyes and better memories than mine spotted a hint at this in a comic from two years ago, so it's not even really a totally new lore nugget, just a new confirmation, I guess.

OOOOOOO

Gays

[Falcon Critical]

I'm here for S76 being gay. He doesn't need to be a biological father to be the Dad of OW (and even if he is it doesn't change anything). As someone more interested in the lore than the gameplay of OW this is cool.

[Delthazar]

The new OWL expansion team skins are live and I have enough tokens leftover from last year to buy five (5) of 'em

but

which five? decide my fate y'all.

[True Perception]

I say Ashe, Hanzo, Mei, Wrecking Ball, and either Reaper or Tracer.

[cybersix]

This is one of those things where it's absolutely never acknowledged in the game, right? It only exists in outside media, and can therefore be completely ignored if desired?

Tracer has a line in King's Row where she wonders if she'll have time to visit Emily while in the area, but again, unless you read the comics you have no idea Emily is her girlfriend.

OOOOOOO

Gays

You know that Zenyatta is actually the only gay character in Overwatch, because when he shouts GAYS INTO THE IRIS all your other teammates run away.

[cybersix]

get some pink and blue soldier action, obvs

I think the away colors look p good on pharah

[Falcon Critical]

You seem to like the team logo on Roadhog's belly, so him for sure. Since you prob want to rep them picking characters you play should be more highly rated, so S76, Mei, Pharah, Torbjorn would be my other picks for you. Also depends if you have skins you super like on your mains already. D.VAs one is too in character for me (doesn't really stand out so much), and Junkrat's shorts are a little too subtle.

Roadhog, S76, Mei, Pharah, Torbjorn.

since half of what I do here is just crosspost funny stuff from the SA overchill thread, some goon found this little gem

BF[28m] quitting a shared activity for raisins I [27f] don't understand

My boyfriend is a pretty big gamer. When I first met him I wasn't very into video games, but he introduced me to them, and it's become something we like to do together. In particular, we like to play Overwatch together and usually play some games of it every few days. So, it's a pretty big thing for us. The problem started today when he heard that Blizzard made a character, Soldier 76, gay in the game's story. It doesn't actually change anything about the gameplay, and I personally don't care at all.

For some raisin he's really mad about it. He keeps talking about how Blizzard "sold out," and saying that he can't support a company that "betrays their fans." He said he won't play the game anymore, which makes me pretty unhappy because it's something I really like to do with him. Am I being unreasonable? I know there are other games we could play, but Overwatch is the only one I'm any good at, so I don't really want to abandon my favorite game.

TLDR: Boyfriend is quitting Overwatch, which we play together, because a character is gay

[Falcon Critical]

It's like when you find out the person you're dating is a right-wing nutjob or a pushy religious type.

[Delthazar]

sometimes I think the Overwatch fandom is the only thing keeping Tumblr alive

[Delthazar]

holy shit
