    In the Reinhart cinematic, his handing his hammer to his boss hits even harder when you consider he's basically giving up his main weapon, his only weapon. He's literally saying "No more glory-hounding, I will be their shield." And that when his shield fails, he tries to cover the few survivors with his own body. It's a hell of a statement, and a hell of a lesson for his players...

There’s also a voice line between Soldier 76 and Widowmaker that goes:
    Widow: “Was the Lily on Geráds grave yours?”
    Soldier: “You know we were close”
    Widow: “Not close enough to know he preferred Roses”

    13:18 I don't know much, but here's what I know: Reaper was a part of Overwatch (you can see him on a photo earlier, he stands showing his back), a leader of Blackwatch (a part of Overwatch, which sorted out, well, dirty works). Those two group always had issues, but when the influence of Overwatch had become weaker, Blackwatch started "a civil war" within the organization, which was the reason why those group collapsed. Gabriel Reyes (a real name of Reaper) was fatally injured and Moira saved him by making him the mist we all know. So when Talon ask to join them, Reaper agreed.

    • @thatotherguy4728
      @thatotherguy4728 3 дня назад +1

      From what I remember black watch didn’t really cause a civil war which lead to the Petra’s act, what happened was black watch was supposed to do like undercover scuffed stuff but there was drama between Jack (soldier) who was the leader of overwatch and Gabriel (Reaper) who was the squad leader of black watch about some of the stuff they were doing. Eventually the head of black watch was assassiated by his wife (widow) who was brainwashed by talon and the black watch was like uh uh fuck that and went to get revenge but ended up causing an explosion which wasn’t exactly covert so people found out about black watch and a bunch of their scuffed missions got exposed so overwatch as a whole got shut down, idk how or when reaper joined talon tho

    Widowmaker's backstory is actually so damn sad and tragic. in her former life, Widowmaker was married to Gérard Lacroix, an Overwatch agent spearheading operations against the Talon terrorist organization. After several unsuccessful attempts to eliminate Gérard, Talon decided to change its focus to his wife, Amélie. Talon operatives kidnapped her and subjected her to an intense program of neural reconditioning. They broke her will, suppressed her personality, and reprogrammed her as a sleeper agent. She was eventually found by Overwatch agents, apparently none the worse for wear, and returned to her normal life.
    Two weeks later she killed Gérard in his sleep.
    Her mission complete, Amélie returned to Talon, and they completed the process of turning her into a living weapon.

    to explain overwatches cinematic universe, its basically the entire world is represented, which is why the cast is so diverse, but there ARE some main plot points:
    old overwatch: a group of ex mercinaries, most of them are retired, or off doing other things, they had a sub-division called blackwatch which genji, moira, reaper(previously reyas), cassidy) all fell into, and they all delved into more...shady stuff, but after blackwatch was outed for their shadier antics, overwatch as a whole got targeted.
    new overwatch: winstons desire to bring back the name "overwatch" led to him recruiting a bunch of new and old faces to help save people again.
    talon: we don't actually know much about talon, but they are the big oppressive force.
    null sector: the creators of the "omnic crisis" a "God program"(sentient supercomputer) called anubis took over a bunch of omnics and declared war unto the world. null sector now, follows ramattra and other null sector leaders causing chaos, a second villain group that is working with talon.
    these are the prime four things you need to know about overwatches lore...but theres a LOT of stuff not related to either.
    iris: someone omnic monks like zen worship, said to give omnics sentience.
    junkers: borderlands. thats basically all you need to know, a bunch of scavengers lost their homes due to the omnic crisis, creating a home of omnic hating dirty people who love scrapping for the title of "king of the junkers"
    deadlock gang: cassidys group of bandits, ruled by ashe. thats all we kinda know about them.
    vishkar: using stolen tech by lucios father, vishkar is a sketchy company, designed to try to improve life, but has odd connections to talon.
    shimada/hashimoto clans: a group of magic(?) users who harness the power of the dragons. uhh...yeah, those dragons are actual magic, theres prob a better explanation, but thats the "Canon" we have been given about how kiriko's and likely the shimada dragons work.
    these are the "Bigger" lore aspects that aren't exactly tied to overwatch or talon. this isn't even touching on the smaller stuff, but these are the main story points to understand overwatch and its world building.

    @maitre-shifu12 2 дня назад +1

    There are so much details in the Reinhardt cinematic that make it incredible
    Like Rein says "die with glory" twice in answer to his master's line, but you can clearly see that it's only the second time that he understands the real meaning behind the words, then he gives his hammer meaning he's giving up on his reckless nature to go save his squad this time, Balderich's little smirk after this interaction and his little shoulder movement in relief when he understands he passed his coin (and his whole legacy, probably) to the right person...
    Then Balderich gets rid of a whole army of omnics who are clearly too strong for him while being damaged enough to know he's not getting out of this castle alive and probably poisoned (looks like it) and still finds the energy to die on the throne, because "dying in glory" means fighting until your last breath
    And the last line straight up means "I still haven't forgiven myself for this moment and I'll do whatever it takes so my master's death won't be in vain, so I must continue fighting to save lives" because that's what "living with honor" means
    It's like they weren't just saying their motto out loud for fun. It's like Reinhardt finally understands that his master was commanding him to live with honor, so he accepts his sacrifice and asks him to die with glory, because he values him as a great warrior, but also as a friend. And because Balderich honored his side of the deal and "died with glory", Reinhardt now has no choice but to "live with honor" and going back to Overwatch.
    It's just beautiful. And it's why brig doesn't understand why he's going back to Overwatch, because she's too young for this and he wants to preserve her as long as possible, but you can bet that he knows he will one day have to teach her the true meaning behind these words just like he learnt them from his master.
    It's just crazy how they can tell all that from one single 40 seconds interaction. And it's the reason why it's my favorite cinematic all games combined.
    Also the overwatch coin that Rein put on the throne's arm is also there in the map along the armor

    "I have been called, I must answer...always." Is one of my favourite tropes in media. It almost always signifies someone who is at their core is humble. Even Reinhardt, who is loud, boisterous and larger than life is someone who would likely gladly give his life for a single innocent person with not one person acknowledging his sacrifice.
    It doesn't matter he was betrayed, it doesn't matter if the world sees him as a bit of a corny joke, it doesn't matter that his battered body is barely holding on. He has been called to help those who need it. And he *must* answer.

      An easy fix would have been to have him change his name when he joined Overwatch. Have him start out as Jesse McCree during his days wiþ þe Deadlock gang, þen change his name to Cole Cassidy to symbolize leaving his old life behind.

    "The Last Bastion" is my favorite short ever. It has this Ghibli-esque feel to it when Bastion is in the forest, very peaceful where he is traveling to his destination yet observing nature with curiosity and respect, then I feel a bit of The Iron Giant in it when he switches to his gatling mode and when his bird buddy comes back at the end. I'm reminded of Hogarts' quote "Guns kill and you are not a gun. You are what you choose to be." I just can't express how much I like this short. Every single one of them is fantastic on its own, but this one has just a special place in my heart...

    Of course, of course. Fkin Soldier 76.
    A character who was supposed to embody all the (positive) masculinity of the Heroes of his time, but the "unexpected" change in the internal composition of Blizzard towards tolerance, the realization that the characters are very popular on "Specific" Internet sites, the flight of madness, and here we are, quite unexpectedly, it turns out that a Soldier, a Tracer, a Widow and someone else is a plus changed their orientation.
    Add to this a Community of approximately similar composition and the noise of shouting, and we will eventually get the reason why TF2 players laugh so fiercely at overwatch. And I'm in the company with them.
    I've never been a fan of Overwatch, but I recognized the beauty, advancement and "coolness" of this game, I even thought about buying it before, but how it all went... irrevocably refused.
    And looking at the modern Overwatch, I made the right choice.
    For me, in such games there will never be any orientation, diligence (religious, racial, gender, etc.).
    I came to play and relax, not to be interested in politics and the choice of someone there. This is a shooter, damn it.
    It's like if in the new Doom (about the Middle Ages) There would be Gay demons, and we wouldn'T have to kill them for that reason.
    Do you feel the level of absurdity?

    I remember always playing Reinhardt as a protector and keeping my team shielded and safe, even called the shots sometimes to help break the enemy lines. Then the cinematic came out and boy did I bawl at the story and get filled with pride that I was doing the lore proud with my playstyle. Such good times, until Blizzard decided to be public shitheels.

    7:55 this part of the cinematic where monke be intellectual with inner monologue going *"Uuuuunnnngabungaaa? Hmmm unga... Bungawundunga... AHA! UNGABADUNGAWANGA!!!"* is like me, fr. I love tinkering with little components & seeing what works & what doesn't. So fun.
    Edit: a'ight. I'll say it before anyone gets weird about it or gets teasy over it 😆 this is my 1,000,000,000,000,000¹⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰% my favorite overwatch moments in my whole life. I'm a tinkerer & thinker by heart; yeah, yeah, despite my temper, depression, & fkd up ways of dealing drunken beatings to ma-fkrs that act like OFFline Tw∆tter freaks, or Karens, Kevins, or (if kevin is straight up married to karen) brads bc I don't have a single shred of time or tolerance for smoke (think of my temperament as if you faced the Corporal from Black Iron Prison in Callisto Protocol - zero tolerance & mercy, & I'll make you feel pain for minutes minimum), in spite of all that, 👏🏼 I 👏🏼 FOCKING 👏🏼 LOVE 👏🏼 TO 👏🏼 TINKER!

    1:18:49 In fact everything on that map revolves around the commander's remains.
    In the description of the official trailer for the Eichenwalde map it says the following:
    "The site of one of the most famous battles during the Omnic Crisis, it was here that the leader of the Crusaders, Balderich von Adler, and a handful of his best soldiers made a last stand against an advancing automaton army. Outnumbered and outgunned, They were ultimately slain during the resulting combat. However, thanks to their valiant efforts, the German military was able to push back the omnic offensive and win the fight.

    On this map, one team must escort a battering ram to Eichenwalde Castle to reclaim Balderich's remains from their current resting place, while the opposing team does everything in its power to thwart the keep from being breached"

    "everyone is friends even though they fight each other" that's the main pitch for every single game in the nintendo franchise, everyone is a paid actor. That's why in some games Bowser is a bad guy, in others he's allowed to race in karts. The entire Nintendo universe is just a Hollywood!AU I think it was confirmed by Nintendo themselves but I could be wrong

    1:05:30 Actually, if you look closely at the background, there's some changes in the environment shadows and her sitting position which i feel like was supposed to show time passing while she was crying. So i believe she supposedly cried for hours but it's probably too subtle to notice and that's why it looked like she accepted their deaths so quickly.

    Nice to see you react to these. The trailers are honestly the best part of the game, as sad as that is. If you're interested in more lore, consider watching the character intro shorts as well (mostly for the new characters added, but Tracer and Soldier have one too). They're not as visually stunning as the cinematics (for the most part, Doomfist's short is very cool), but they are interesting character- and story-wise.
