@sandraswan9008 Partially true, I think of it more as a cause from most the original OW team are now gone, and the greater art team of blizzard. Those responsible for the OG designs have passed their original jobs to newly employed artists. Blizzard is peak in terms of its art but most modern praise is from its incredibly strong foundations and art-styles. The new designed stuff from blizzard definitely feels different, that's just due to new hired talent.
Yeah, not only the pose, but the silhouette is just too top heavy where I feel like it can easily get confused for tracer if you remove the diamond shoulder things, which wouldn’t be good gameplaywise either
Honestly, Overwatch really is the world of Anthro animals, like 5 different historic eras of fashion, multiple constructions of androids, natural bright coloured hair, and sometimes humans have blue skin (though it is affected by a semi-death state) Like, the Overwatch art style is basically just dressing nearly anyone in that gear that is a mix of streetwear and futuristic armour, and giving them a bright accent colour.
They looks like characters from other IPs which are having a crossover with Overwatch. Their artstyle is adapted to Overwatch but their original artstyle still somewhat preserve.
I am still so petty that there was originally suppose to be a hero in the game called "Jetpack Cat" it was cat in a jetpack, but they scrapped it because it was considered to be "too much" BUT THEY COULD PUT A HAMSTER IN A BALL 😭
At least with Overwatch 2 they gave him some half decent voicelines that kinda hint at a personality. One that doesn't really fit his backstory, since he's supposed to be a defector from Talon but his personality is the befuddled everyman who's tagging along and is kinda confused by all the weirdness. But it at least is a personality.
1.I’m fairly certain (at least most of) the people saying these characters are referring to the aesthetic, or some design details, And 2.I’d say they’re technically right about not looking like Overwatch characters…because they look like Overwatch 2 character designs. Since when I hear that people think these characters “don’t look like Overwatch” aesthetic and art style/design is what comes to mind, because aside from that a heck of a lot of goes just fine in the Overwatch universe.
Yeah they just need a second pass to make them fit in more. If anything they are currently too boring and generic. Maybe give space girl some more chonk on her waist plate things.
you should've shown OW1 concept art. Venture and Space Ranger's 2D art shown at the beginning fit in perfectly with the 2D concept art of other OW characters. They definitely look like OW characters.
Yeah Bap feels out of place to me and to be fair Space Ranger looks like a magical girl type character in a gundam anime and Venture looks like the optimistic little brother of the main group in a dark adventure manga
I actually think how they designed Baptiste makes sense. He is technically a man who is running from a dangerous organization, so any unnecessary equipment would hinder him. Sure, he has that cloth around his neck and chest, but it mostly doesn't inhibit him. Another thing that I find it fine is that he is in battles, and he needs to be prepped to take damage. Sure, other characters wear less to no armor, or armor that is out of place in real life (Reinhardt and Pharah), but he seems to be one of the ones to take the whole events in the story more seriously than most, especially since he betrayed Talon and openly is against them

It's the level of detail specifically in the fabrics. Overwatch is very cartoony and that helps them get away with all the crazy unrelated concepts you were talking about, and removing that cartoony aspect makes it kinda look out of place and awful.
It's probably because I play a crap ton of overwatch but I don't personally think that. However I can see why people think that, especially at a glance or something
Space ranger straight up looks like a tracer or D.va skin and venture is the most overwatch ass design ive seen in a while, what is this person on about?
They do look like overwatch, but I sort of understand what the comment was saying. Og overwatch heroes felt very simple even though their ridiculous concepts, new heroes seem a bit too cluttered and overdesigned.
I get what they mean like with the art looking more anime they look like honkai characters more than overwatch. But in the end it sucks that if a character is cool in overwatch its sad because they had to be made in overwatch and not something better.
So what? In League of Legends they've got furries, gods, demi gods, star gods, weebs, people born with magic, anti magic n@zis, demons, magic powered technologies/ magic powered cyborgs, toxic waste dump hood, cursed undead, pirate city, magic vikings, hidden jungle Kingdom and Eldritch horrors that exist outside the universe that want to destroy the universe just because it keeps waking then up. Anything goes in the world of runeterra. So anything is also possible in overwatch. Also, these are concept art, if they do get made into real o.v characters the design team will clean and polish them into real o.v characters.
The moment I saw that venture can make themselves untargetable with that dig ability it was an instant turn off. The rest of the kit is fine, but giving characters that ability to stave off pushes is boring as shit. At least the VO for them isn’t terrible.
I dont know overwatch, but i still think they look a bit of. For me it isnt there style (e.g. what they wear), its the way they are "drawn" (e.g. proportions)
I definitely see where those people are coming from, but that’s just a really lazy way to put it. I’m not a huge Overwatch fan, but to me, it seems like part the reason that a lot characters fit in is because of a clash of tropes (particularly futuristic sci-fi elements combined with older or simpler styles). These designs kinda seem like they fall mostly into a single design trope/idea/style, which isn’t the norm for Overwatch. The art style and seeing just this shot with no background on the characters (there might be more images or info, but I don’t keep up with the game in the slightest) also probably contributes.
Ta Ta piercings got me.. I’m not even gonna lie 😂😭 but genuinely would love to know the thought process behind “Venture and Space Ranger don’t look Overwatchy enough”
Dudes' saying all those things with this gold and shiny hair, he'll outstand my opinions anyway, but... Venture's design is way better and way more fitting to the Overwatch game than Juno. Juno has a much bigger head, eyes, and lacks the personality and the details other characters have. I don't think any character looks off, except for Juno.
I hope they start adding more lore relevant characters in the future. It was good to see junkerqueen and Mauga after being teased for so long. I hope they some members from Dvas mech team like overlord or sumthin.
It's odd to hear people say that based off of just concept art, because several of the overwatch roster doesn't "look like overwatch" when you look at their original designs. I'd recommend taking a look at the original images of heroes that were initially made for project Titan. The predecessor project to Overwatch.
The person is correct, they do not look like overwatch, but they could if you put them in the game. That is how concept art works. They just need to be turned into 3d models and adjusted a bit to fit the style. There are just a few design choices that makes these more like an anime character than an overwatch character. Its not the concepts. Basically they are a bit too clean and boring.
Too clean? In a world with Widow, Baptiste, OW2 Reaper, D.va, Sojourn, Echo, Symmetra, Kiriko... Like if you don't like the designs because their too clean, boring, whatever, perfectly fair. But too much so to fit into Overwatch? I feel like that's a hard stance to take
One minor criticism I have with OW2, is that most character designs were made significantly cleaner and simplistic. Like a lot of skins in OW1 had little stains, and were very cloth looking. But OW2 goes for a more sterile, synthetic material kind of look. Like it's still good, but I like OW1 designs a bit more
See I don't get that because all of the Overwatch characters currently in the game also have artwork in 2D That looks just like these concept art depictions
"Venture and Space Ranger don't look like they belong in the same game!" You mean the game where a Japanese man in a gi who uses a bow empowered by dragon magic is rubbing shoulders with a British time-travelling test pilot and a talking gorilla from the moon? Grow up!
I'm just not a fan of Venture. The kit is awsome, but something about the overtly toddler like perpetual joy and cartoonish steve ircle "Did i do that?" Type one liners causes my brain to grow a tooth
Poor Baptiste is just a combat medic in the middle of a fight between super-powered people who can time travel, become literal smoke, control gravity, etc. lmao
The space girl definitely doesn't look like she's from Overwatch. She looks more like she spilled out of a sci-fi magical girl anime. The other one looks fine. And I'm sorry, Baptiste doesn't look like they belong? That's a god awful take.
Perhaps it’s the shape designs. From an art perspective, they seem to have shifted away from having large chunky shapes that are readable from a distance. Then sprinkling in bits of detail as accents. A good mix of big, medium and small shapes. The space ranger however, has medium to small shapes all over. Which makes the design relatively busy without any areas of rest for the eyes, especially near her head. But it’s just a concept, I’m sure the art director and artists will work to refine the design in terms of readability.
I love their art style its so adorable, overwatch has such a cool style but these heroes' styles are more cute, i love the range of heroes in overwatch actually it doesnt just stick to the tropes of designs and actually has a range of characters.
As someone who’s played the game since initial launch… every single character besides maybe like echo and sojurn had had this “complaint” even Kiriko had it, people said she looked like she was from Fortnite. The character concepts never fully “fit in” but that’s cause it’s still the 2D art, and it will become normal, the artists at Blizzard are always top notch, so just put faith in them fr~
Maybe they think that because of the art style or because they are 2D? If this is not the case tho I really don't know why they would think that.
Oh yeah, they will look much more game like once they have a 3d model imo
Probably that. Tho the space ranger also gives me a bit of a pokemon i e

Perhaps it’s the shape designs. From an art perspective, they seem to have shifted away from having large chunky shapes that are readable from a distance. Then sprinkling in bits of detail as accents. A good mix of big, medium and small shapes. The space ranger however, has medium to small shapes all over. Which makes the design relatively busy without any areas of rest for the eyes, especially near her head.
But it’s just a concept, I’m sure the art director and artists will work to refine the design in terms of readability.
Venture looks like Sid the science kid
Oh wow I love their designs!
I love their art style its so adorable, overwatch has such a cool style but these heroes' styles are more cute, i love the range of heroes in overwatch actually it doesnt just stick to the tropes of designs and actually has a range of characters.
This is the same type of argument people will make in mimecraft. A new block shows up "its just not minecraft"
Imo most ow2 characters actually do feel a bit off, but venture and that space ranger are some of the best designs weve gotten
Oh god bro I forgot about that hamperton skin, and I liked those times.
Weird, I've had that thought about some characters, but not these 2, they look really fitting to me
I agree with you about the behemoth man that throws a hook at people
Love the fit! Good video :)
I thought I was the only one who thought that about Bap😂😭
That hamster is now a dog
As someone who’s played the game since initial launch… every single character besides maybe like echo and sojurn had had this “complaint” even Kiriko had it, people said she looked like she was from Fortnite. The character concepts never fully “fit in” but that’s cause it’s still the 2D art, and it will become normal, the artists at Blizzard are always top notch, so just put faith in them fr~
