I really like Reaper in this one. He's showing signs of humanity - like when he chooses to not shoot Mauga, or orders Sombra to escape from danger, even though they didn't get the data. Maybe it's just cold logic, but I like to think he has empathy still.

@Arkainjel 5 ай бұрын

I don't think Reaper is completely heartless (there's even enough rapport there to at least tolerate Sombra nicknaming him "Smokey" and "Calavera Man"), but he mostly understands how capable his team is. Dare I say it, he even trusts Sombra enough when she says she'll get the job done before bailing. I think in the moment though, Mauga made for a suitable distraction for them to continue the operation. He had no problem "dealing with Mauga" on Doomfist's order once the mission was completed, even going so far as to non-verbally ask Sombra's opinion on how to deal with him by holding up the gun.

@milkmandrew8866 5 ай бұрын

I think both him and Widow are losing their loyalty with Talon, or maybe even using Talon much like Sombra is. I think Widow's brainwashing is starting to wear off and I think Reaper has noticed, but hasn't said anything. (Mercy even says in pre-game chat that she knows Amelie is still in there, all she needs to do is run some tests). And I think Reaper has just had enough of Moira experimenting on him and just wants to get away from her, honestly. And much like Widow, Mercy wants to help him and has offered (thanks to some pre-game chats again) but at this point he just doesn't trust any scientists so he's leery of accepting her offer.

@Mr.Monacle 5 ай бұрын

@@milkmandrew8866 I've always been of the opinion that Reaper was playing the long game with Talon, like his interests *are* actually aligned with Overwatch, but he wouldn't make for a very good man on the inside if that were clear. Now, it's also possible that that was the original goal, but now he can't survive without Moira and is stuck doing the dirty work because otherwise the careful balance between regeneration and decay that he strikes will fall out of balance and just flat out kill him.

S: Mauga used his knowledge of ships to execute a slightly louder stealth retrieval. He tried to tell us, but we kept telling him to shut up. The initial explosion when we entered the ship was him destroying the communication antenna. Everything else--him splitting up from us, the system lockdown, the entire ship exploding--were mere side effects (opens the pack and takes out the relay with a smirk, shocking everyone) of him getting me a souvenir while avoiding any leaks. DF: ...Your trust in Mauga? S: Still zero, but at least he's a useful loose cannon. DF (nods): Get the Relay and data to the technicians. Dismissed. (walks off)

This animation is so good. I hope Blizzard makes more shorts in this style. I love how Mauga's portrayed here. Very much a force of mass destruction, but he's not completely chaotic about it, he 's calculating and clever about what he obliterates, and cares about the mission as much as Sombra and Reaper. He just prefers to to it his way. I can't wait to play as him.

Very much agreed.

For a character that we’ve known about for years, it’s really nice that he isn’t a disappointment. Like yeah that sounds rough and gloomy but things have been that way in OW2… at least for me. It’s nice that these shorts never come up short. A character with a big personality comparable to Rein? And he isn’t a cliche dunce but acts with purpose too? Love it.
