I LOVE how quietly she talks, it's as if she's constantly thinking about something and talking is 2nd to that in importance

Moira to other heroes: Sassy, and condescending Moira to sigma: I swear to fucking god i will banish you to the deepest circle of hell.

The voice actress for Moira simply NAILED her personality, Jesus! I love her vibe so much, ugh

Moira is incredibly sassy and threatening but Sigma is just a nice guy

Moira: *quietly working* Sigma: *hits blunt* are lobsters mermaids to scorpions?

I love how Widow lowkey sounds terrified of Moira. The way she asks if she's thinking about anything dangerous and Widow sounds so panicked when she replies with "No. Never." Makes Moira so much more scary than she seems

Why is her voice kinda relaxing

I love the Moira-Sigma interactions... the dichotomy of a philosopher-astrophysicist and a biologist is brilliantly reflected here, along with both their strong personalities.

1:24 You can just HEAR Moira's blood pressure rising during this line and I love it.

Okay so there’s another version of the line at 1:20 where instead of the sand thing, Sigma (roughly) goes “If we are truly in a simulation, then how come there aren’t more elephant seals?” And I think that’s beautiful.

Moiras VA truly does some FINE damn work, we're lucky to have her.

“Is that an emotion I detect, Lacroix” Oh she’s got THREATS

i’m so glad they’re really leaning into hero interactions in 2. that was one of my favorite parts of the first game

"We'll have to test your pain tolerance" she asks the man who constantly has their hair on fire. The man who uses explosives so often and excessively there's likely not a single nerve not burnt off or covered in callouses.

3:59 Why do I get the feeling Mercy actually CAN wait that long... and Moira _knows_ it

I feel so bad for Sigma... Talon really messes him up something awful!

Interesting how Sigma gets philosophical about science and Moira is just like 😐 Shows how Sigma is actually like, concerned w/ ethics and morals and meaning and Moira just has a lust for knowledge despite what it means, or if it's good at all.

I missed this interactions. That and the Mercy/Moira dynamic is always a delight since it shows the positives and negatives of both sides. Is it better to wait for progress and people suffer in the here and now? Or to have the suffering commence now in order to help people immediately? Not as cookie cutter as that, but certainly a fun little dilemma to showcase.

0:54 I can picture Moira already holding three syringes, a scalpel, and a bonesaw, ready to evict any emotions out of Widowmaker.

To think that out of all the characters to annoy her the most, it would be the one guy who can’t figure out the name of that one melody.

I detect fear in widowmaker’s voice when talking to moira

She's so nasty, condescending and evil I love her so much

Moira needs a cinematic, O'Reilly is a master

3:43 omg that whole interaction makes Moira feel even more like the "Apex predator". Love it!

The way Reaper slowly turns at 4:29 as he is being roasted is comedy gold.

pleek she basically called Cass a fuccboi 💀

I love the first interaction with the ex-Blackwatch team. I really hope they incorporate more conversations with more than two people like this one. Dynamics between two are interesting, but dynamics within a group are vastly more.

2:59 Why did she clear hanzo like that😭💀

This is her truly coming out, she’s just a sassy scientist queen who wants progress, nothing more, nothing less!

Damn, even Maximilien hates Moira? Her ability to aggro every single one of her colleagues is actually incredible.

I love Moira's voice. She thinks while talking to someone, like analyzing the situation. I love her development of personality, she's always been someone that speaks her mind even if others don't understand it. I love how she "tries to get into a fight with everyone", but that's just her speaking what's on her mind... Don't take it to heart.

That team kill and Reaper just casually looks at Moira. Gold!

"All that trouble....and for WHAT...." She's gotta point. She's an icon. She's a legend. And she is the moment. Now come on now.

4:08 Ana really woke up and choose violence

We knew reaper’s state was, at least in part, by Moira’s hand… but this is the first we’ve got confirmation she also led Widowmaker’s experimentation. Maybe even Sigma’s too. She’s really a lot more sick than we saw in ow1

That Moira's line where she says "Must i do your work as well as my own ?" its so accurate to Moira's mains.. We shall be first healer of the game AND first dps... And we also "tank" like monsters if we're good enough to tempo on objectives. Like gosh, feels good to be Queens.

Moira truly has the best dialogue. Her VA really nailed her. Even as they occasionally added more dialogue/interactions into the game in OW1, hers just got better and better. I mean, most of the heroes received new dialogues in game periodically and they were all good; they were entertaining and funny... But Moira's were next level. They were authentic and true to her personality and while being entertaining, they really helped you understand her character and personality. Moira's not a disloyal character despite having left Overwatch to join Talon. She was never loyal to Overwatch, nor is she to Talon and she doesn't try to hide that. Overwatch and its senior members like Mercy criticized, hindered, and sometimes outright interfered with her experiments and methods. Moira is a firm believer that the ends justify the means and that sacrifices are sometimes necessary to gain knowledge, improve medicine and humanity, and achieve greatness. She didn't care whom she was working for or what their motives were, she simply wanted them to enable her research. Overwatch morally objected to her frequently whereas Talon gave her free reign entirely. She's not disloyal, but her only true loyalty is to science. She's also not evil, despite being a "villain." She isn't sadistic; she doesn't like inflicting pain. She only does it when she believes it's necessary for her research but she won't shy away from it. She lacks empathy and she can be quite callous in her experiments, but she is doing it with a greater purpose in mind and to be fair... she is successful in her field and there's not much wasted effort on her part as she does get the results she's after. She's never mean, and doesn't really ever aggressively antagonize anyone. Even things she says like to Widow/Reaper that seem insensitive, she just lacks the empathy to be self-aware of her statements and questions. She's often passive aggressive and feeds us those snarky clapbacks. And although she affirms that her desired place is in a research lab and not in the frontlines engaging in combat, she's no craven. She put Reinhardt in his place in game. Even when she says something mildly sinister, threatening, or dark, she still conveys her passion and fascination with science. Even her rhetoric is above and beyond for a fps character that has no story mode (yet). She speaks like a Disney villain. It's poetically dark and romantic in word choice. Her tone is usually very sultry yet still very breathy and light, lower in volume and without much force, instead putting the effort and power into her pronunciation and melodic way of speaking. You can tell when she's annoyed when she flips into the more brash tone like "I'm working/Brilliant," with a light vocal fry. It completely encapsulates her energy. That she doesn't need to be assertive, aggressive, or overly expressive like most heroes to convey her intentions. Ex. Moira vs Reinhardt dialogue: Reinhardt conveys his feelings and resentment. His energy and volume increase and is very direct in his message and issues a direct threat. You can hear his feelings, they are made obvious regardless of his dialogue. Moira though, her tone would suggest a pleasant or lighthearted conversation yet she still commands the respect here and comes out the victor. The power of her unconcerned tone, and the eloquent word choice she uses to issue an even more terrifying threat indirectly through cryptic hypotheticals.

The voice acting and interactions in this game are amazing... but Moira surely has the best of the all. Her calm, subtle savagery is a perfect balance to the bright and flashy cast that surrounds her. She's a true scientist, gone rogue.

2:48 I really want to get a genji skin if Moira repaired genji

Moira's interactions are great and full of salt, but I'm particularly more interested in Sigma's, he sounds like he would be really nice to talk to about the most menial things.

When I was in college I used to type my essays and when I finished I would read the whole thing in Moira’s voice as if she was making a presentation. Needless to say my English profesor like them.

Sombra and Moira's deliveries of "yet" are absolutely *chef's kiss*

(3:14) You should take up Junkrat's offer Moira. The Junkertown education system produces the brightest minds in Australia.

moira, sombra and wm are such good characters

Hearing Sigma's philosophical questions makes me think him and Winston would have conversations that go on for hours.

3:31 Orisa is such a badass now I love her

I’m Irish, and her Irish accent is what makes her voice so beautiful! I love her irishness

Lore wise, Moira has to be one of my favorite characters

Dva's follow up interaction is so cute 😭🐇❤️

Widow was a lil aggressive with that “NO, never”

her voice makes me enjoy playing her, her kit is a complete plus

That interaction with McCree is _exactly_ how I pictured it. God, I fuckin love Moira dude. She's literally this game's iteration of TF2's Medic, and I adored her for that. Kudos to Genevieve for providing such an awesome voice. Shame that we never got to see her in a panel, though

Of course Ana the only one who can make such a comeback

Moira talking to Sombra and Junkrat is very fun to see / hear, my headcannon is their somewhat friends or however Moira would perceive "friend"

How dare she be rude to Sigma 😭

Genevieve O’Reilly really turning the Moira Dial up to 11 here. I love it.

If you listen closely to Moira as she talks to SIgma, you may actually HEAR her blood pressure rising.

It's nice to hear more Sigma interactions.

The sass at 3:00

sigma so philosophical 😌

They added so many sassy lines, it's the best buff they've been able to make in years

d.va is so funny with her rabbits fights back lmao

The voice actor for moira has done an absolutely incredible job in overwatch 2, her character is brilliant.

1:02 "I'm thinking on how to best utilize you" "in batte right?" "😉" "in battle...right?"

Moira: "I assure you we are nothing alike." Baptiste: Watchu mean by that?!

My god moira terrifies everyone. Sombra stays away from her, she won’t let her near sigma either. Widow seems very eager to confirm to her she’s not thinking anything dangerous, almost as if she’s afraid she might have to be ‘fixed’ Also she really is just a dick to everyone isn’t she

Zen and Sigma are besties of asking philosophical questions

I REALLY hope they dig into the characters in the story mode next year, especially Moira. She’s probably the most evil character of the cast, showing no regrets for anything she’s done. Even someone like Widowmaker fears her because of how she removed her emotions. You can hear it in her voice when Moira asks her if she’s pondering something risky after being distant, uncharacteristic of her mental reprogramming. Reaper doesn’t give enough of a damn to truly confront Moira about his cellular makeup causing him physical pain, but it’d be great to see that fleshed out. Her role in the cast is a fascinating one, and I hope we get to see her interactions explored more deeply.

The fact we had a dialogue interaction between four characters at once is beautiful! Great lines, all of them! Thanks for the vid!

Her voice sounds so much more better in Overwatch 2. How has Mercy's gotten worse? 😭

This woman... her voice... her personality.. how could I not like her omg..

i love the flirting between sigma and moira

Her sarcastic response to the first Sigma line is amazing. Of course he is completely oblivious to it

Dude how cold and terrifyingly sick she is..such an awesome character though the voice actress did wonders. The voice line where she asks widowmaker about her emotions was so like cold but it really makes sense with the lore :0

So apparently Moira is also the person responsible for the changes/operations done to Amélie Lacroix. Interesting.

Dva: "No you cant experiment on rabbits!!!" Moira: "Hehe I'll fuckin do it again!"

THE SIGMA AND MOIRA BANTER SKBDKXBDODBKD I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. SIGMA JUST SOUNDS LIKE HE'S TRYING TO GET UNDER MOIRA'S SKIN KDBDKDVDJDBIDB

I feel like Orisa is that one student that got bullied and now is not taking crap anymore the following year.

DiVa: How can you experiment on those cute little rabbits?! Moira: Easily. Me: Well damn.

"I'm thinking of the best way to utilize you" "In the upcoming battle, right?" "..." "In the upcoming battle, right?!?!"

1:03 this specific interaction, the tone of her voice makes me feel something 😳, what an amazing VA.

Moira calling junkrat little even though he’s one of the tallest characters

They’ve really developed her character well for OW 2. She’s one of the few characters who got great voice line changes in the game

I really like the interaction between Sombra and her about Max, it's like the only interaction between her and another Talon member where both of them aren't at each other's throats.

I would love to see more mcree and moira lore. They def. got some chemistry.

3:53 Hammer DOWN!

"This Rabbit fights back!" There's something genuinely comical about that back and forth.

That Genji and Moira interaction, what if Genji was rebuilt by moira. Imagine the abilities he would have. I’d like to see that.

I love the Moira/Sigma dynamic, with him constantly asking paradoxical questions, and Moira just responding like he’s an overly annoying toddler.

i feel like testing junkrats pain would take.. a while *five hours in* junkrat, with thirty-five broken bones, laughing

My wife dgaf

God her voice actor is amazing

I love sigma man he’s like this grandpa that doesn’t know exactly what’s going on but he tries his best😭

“How can you experiment on those cute little rabbits?” “Easily.” *Oh shit-*

I’m stoned and the sigma interactions are making me question reality

Amazing video! I think the Shimada Interaction was already there in OW1. I think I've heard it already. :P

Moira is being so ...sinister? Rude? Sadistic? In her lines, but her voice is somehow so smooth and calming. I'm so 😌here

The Queen of Shade!!! 💜💛

wait, is this the first time we get multiple hero interactions in a single sequence, seems we have a full BlackWatch interaction here.

0:14 talon loves bullying max in ow2 lolol Sombra has another voiceline where she goes "who wants drinks? I'm paying with max's card!" Glad to see hes getting more recognition though
