I really like OW1 Dva intro compared to the OW2 version. There's just so much more sass and personality in that one. I get that the OW2 cast are older than what they were in OW1, so naturally Dva would have matured a little, but... She just summons her mech and stands there... There's no personality, no sass, no Dva being, well, a diva.

In my humble opinion OW2 animation for D.va is miles better because it shows a bit of growth and maturity while still keeping her snazz. Like, instead of being the overly "quirky" gamer girl, she's confident in her skills but doesn't get lost in it, which, as I said, shows that she's matured a bit more.

The main difference is that it is noticeable that the current outfits wanted to make them more tactical and professional, for example Tracer, who first has a jacket like a normal person would do and then is changed for a complete synthetic suit without fabric clothing, or for example Lucio, who previously had DJ clothes and something casual, now has a metallic and more aerodynamic suit, or Mei, who initially has normal and common cold clothes, and then is changed to a specialized suit for combat in the cold.

Thanks for the vid. Like their redesigns themselves, their select animations are such a mixed bag.

For example, I love Doomfist's original pose, but I love how he stares into the camera in 2. I think the best of both worlds would be if struck his original pose first, and THEN turned to face the camera.

If only the new heroes got this much love. Kiriko kinda comes close, but Sojourn literally just puts her hand on her hip, JQ reloads a gun and puts it on her shoulder, and Ramattra clicks his staff on the ground. For JQ specifically, I'd love if they gave her say, an animation where she crushes an Omnic's head with the magnetic force of her gauntlet, showcasing her magnetic abilities on the front. Sojourn should definitely lean more heavily into her disruptor shot and mechanical augmentations, and I'd love if Ramattra just inspected the orb a little more. Lifeweaver's is pretty good tho.

As a Sigma main, him splitting one large thing into two smaller spheres just emphasizes my head cannon of Sigma being Blizzard's version of Oppenheimer and how he contributed to the discovery of splitting "2 and 3 from 5" Especially with that dead look in his eyes, I just can't get it out of my head that he IS Oppenheimer.

I think most of these are upgrades since the majority are just the old animations but with more animation, so it’s pretty cool 👍 the only ones I really have a problem with are sigma’s (the piano thing along with the hand movement was way better than this new thing) and junkrat’s bc even tho I feel like his intro should have more life than it did before, he seems more like a hyper little kid than a crazy person

@channel-ge3tv Жыл бұрын

for some people, it's the little things that matter the most. ow2 changed a lot of little features and completely destroyed the feel of the original game. for example, only having one endorsement, removing the cards at the end of the game, smoothing down the character designs, and changing the color scheme from dark grey to cloudy blue. not saying that any of the changes were objectively bad, but don't judge people for what they let ruin a game for them yknow?

I feel like these do a good job showing what the hero is all about, like showing off their weapons, and with more expressive gestures that I think captures the hero’s attitude. Reaper I think is the best over all of this because he fades into existence and crosses his arms with two giant shotguns. That’s basically how you play Reaper and I think new players watching that intro get the idea of kinda how you would play that hero.

One thing I haven't seen others mention is that the compositions of their poses look significantly worse. You can see this with most of the heroes, but for ex. just compare Zarya's ending animations with each other: 2:59. OW1 has a very "heroic" looking pose, with her standing at a three quarters view, and her gun extending past the camera at a slight perspective angle, while the OW2 pose is just an awkward close up front shot (that cuts off most of her body (and doesn't even include her gun)) of her standing with her arms at her side. Another ex. 0:14, OW1 Ashe, where you can see most of her body and gun, and where her head's tilted at just the right angle for her hat to cover one eye, giving her a pretty striking (and pretty cool looking) pose. Compared to OW2, where she's basically just standing there with her gun offscreen. The old poses overall just look so much cleaner and are better composed, imo. One other thing that kinda bothers me as well (that's unrelated to the animations themselves) is that the new hero models seem "softer," and somehow more cartoony.

The old ones were made with a concept of a hero behind a glass who was waiting to be picked by the player. The presentation was subtle in most cases. The new ones are made as if the heroes are put into a ring and are waiting to get into fight any moment now. Like some kind of wrestler. The presentation in most cases is flashy and sometimes exaggerated. I personally like the first approach.

Despite the more flashy animations, I think the ow2 intros are more relatable and intimate because most of the characters rests in a comparatively neutral stance, something a normal person would idle in.
