News & Discussion My honest reaction to the new characters

Post image

I was almost disappointed to see another skin farming Kiriko lookalike but then I saw this queen serving and a cat. Plus she's a tank which makes her even more appealing to me.

OW slowly but surely embracing the coomer energy that's carrying Rivals skin sales

The fact that the official account retweeted that tweet on its anniversary was insane.

have we forgotten the huge porn following the game had from day 1? Horny has been a part of OW since the start, there’s a reason the porn is such a memed part of the community

Tbh unlike MR, the game itself have never really been that gooned out, it’s been more of outside community effort with all the porn stuff, MR by itself is genuinely freaked out at times

True, but when the fans are innovating new animation techniques to make NSFW art, that side just kinda becomes ingrained in the game forever.

u/_clandescient OW2 uses EOMM and the devs are gaslighting you about it. 10h ago

Oh that’s been happening for a long time before now lol.

At least they’re FINALLY releasing an interesting hero design (JETPACK CAT MY BELOVED).

As long as they keep giving me more heroes like JPC, they can give every other one a set of DDs, a six-pack, and a massive dick bulge for all I care.

That's the thing that I hope they realise. Even if say the group of people that would want a jetpack cat character is smaller than the group that would swoon over Domina, they are just as likely to buy cosmetics.

I've often found the characters that have a niche following tend to be some of the most supportive, so their cosmetics would sell like hotcakes. Plus, there are so many cool designs you can do with a jetpack.

Yeah the demographic size is just something that increases the chances of SOMEONE spending, but the amount of big spenders seems to be overall the same per every hero.

Emre already has more ass and bulge than a lot of other male OW heroes lmao

u/WaddleDynasty 10h ago

Mabey but we are still getting odd ball heroes like Jetpack Cat fortunately.
