You gotta think, all these characters are a generation or two after Gen Z(The game takes place around 2076-80 if I remember correctly) so the fact that pop culture phrases could have seeped into everyday language without them even knowing what it's from is a real possibility in the lore.
Had no idea there were THIS many references. I recognized quite a few of them, but some of these are so obscure that i thought they were just regular voice lines
Some are just reaches. Like, D.VA is a gamer, so it's normal for her a phrase like "I'm on the next level", yet they matched it with a k-pop song that I'd bet has nothing to do with it. Same with others.
I feel like no one notices Moiras voice line “If it were to be done, let it be done quickly” - it’s a reference to the utterance from Lady Macbeth in Shakespeare’s Macbeth.
In Paladins (another game that is like Overwatch) we have a champion called Inara who has the same ability of Mei's Wall on her kit, and sometimes when she uses that ability she says "You shall not pass"
That ready player one voiceline is actually reference to old arcade games, where it would say ready player 1 right before you started. That’s the inspiration for the book too.
Roadhog also has a voice line in which he says “life is pain, so is death” which is almost certainly a reference to Sloth from Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood
@@thiccboiikevdawg on a more serious note I think the devs love and care for the game but the higher ups screw shit up like putting heros in battlepass
I always remember thinking to myself "Y'know Mon Mothma sounds a lot like Moira-". Not up until recently when I found Genevieve O'Reilly's IMDB did I figure out she actually voiced Moira
Ah, yes, the mushroom text post... Every time I hear that voice line I can't shake the idea out of my head of Reaper being somehow fungus-adjacent. His wraith form and teleportation aren't him changing states of matter, simply spreading the s p o r e s
@@IAmAlteringTheDeal no, that one is definitely intentional bc of the ice stuff. But saying Ana's "you know nothing" is a game of thrones reference, when they don't even say it in the same way? It's weird
2:55 The rocket jump was popularized first at quake, it was a jumping technique using the rocket launcher. Which was later then turned into a game mode where you only had rockets as the only weapon you could play. And even before quake, people were using explosives to reach plataforms back in the first doom game. The same is true about the railgun, it was such a popular weapon that it turned into a new game mode (railgun only). We are talking mid 90s (quake) vs mid 2000s (team fortress).
Honestly impressive how many years they've covered with just the voice lines. They may f up here and there with stuff but its very clear the people making the game care and love the game. Amazing job on the video too man.
Cassidy also has a "You are already dead" in addition to Hanzo. Soldier also has "smells like victory", the follow-up line to the Apocalypse Now reference. ("I love the smell of napalm in the morning. Smells like... victory.")
I like to think that Ramattra’s voice line “suffer as I have” is maybe referencing Aatrox from league with his “suffer as I have suffered” voice line. Best part is they share the same voice actor !
9:03 There's also another reference Junkrat makes to V for Vendetta; sometimes when he gets a multi-kill, he'll hum the 1812 Overture, which is the same music that V played over loudspeakers while he blew up a building!
I had a weird respawn quote with Sigma's emperor skin, he said and i quote: "Agh the sand..i hate it! It's getting everywhere!" I loved it, as a huge star wars fan 😂
@Canadian Road-tripper It is, since it's a homage to Dune since the "God-Emperor" title for sci-fi came from Dune itself. The protagonist, Paul Atreides, the future God Emperor of Dune, his story of his ascension to the throne, is taking place in Arrakis, a sandy planet
I love how all the references relfect the characters so much, cassity looks like every person in the clips, and all his references fit him so well, and d.vas refrences are all korean, i also like how many rock and star wars references there were, makes me think the devs liked those a lot
Such a shame Genji never got a Metal Gear Rising reference. Picture genji saying: “Those are rules of Nature” “Let’er rip!” “Sorry to cut in” “Nanomachines?”
"Does it really have to be this way?" "A red sun rises over paradise" "The only thing I know for real... Blood will spill" "The stains of time can't be washed"
i love how many refrences Ow made to Tf2 being that Ow was heavily based off of tf2, and with the recent colabs and stuff id like to see a tf2 x Ow2 colab skin. like a demoman junkrat, or medic mercy.
The TF2 references are just everything. I wish people stopped bickering between the fandoms and come to realize how much fun both can be together. A collab would be everything
Honestly, people who still meme about Overwatch vs TF2 in this day and age are not to be taken seriously, given that both games aren't in an especially desirable state. Anything that either side says is pure projection. Personally, I love both games, and I would love to see a collab between them. Just imagine Overwatch and TF2 taking the piss out of each other's writing styles, for example.
I feel like a few of these are a bit of a stretch. Like "Get off my lawn" could just be another "Soldier's an old dude" joke and "Stop me if you've heard this one before" is a pretty common fraise with the song being a weird thing for Junkrat to reference. It's like saying if someone uses a lariat it's a reference to Zangief from street fighter lol.
oh, i hadn't heard the junkrat "remember, remember" voiceline... ADORE that they put that reference in, since his last name is fawkes and he's obsessed with explosives. really neat
Rammatra has another voiceline that references Five Nights at Freddy's. The "Bittersweet, but fitting" line originates in Freddy Fazbears Pizzaria simulator as a post-death-Voiceline said by Scraptrap
For the record, you passed on Cass's "How do you wanna do this" voice line, a reference to his own voice actor, Matt Mercer and one of his signature phrases on the live show Critical Role
I always wondered imagine all the TF2 mercs got put into the overwatch world and when Talon tries to convince them to join their side they have the selection of : A annoying speedy dude from boston A screaming patriot that thinks anything other than American is a enemy (rip legend) A pyromaniac that will burn anything in their sight A drunk Scottish dude with a explosive hang over LARGE RUSSIAN Extremely smart Dude from Texas who builds machines for war (also may replaces limbs with robotic ones) Australian dude who acts like he is the only sane member of his team (very much isn’t) A german psychopath with a expired medical license And a french man that is very skilled at identity theft
Here is another one, but it only works when you set the audio to german: when you nano boost Soldier 76 he says "Es gibt nur eine Geschwindigkeit: meine" ("There is only one speed: mine"), which is a line from the movie Chronicles of Riddick. That's a reference to the german voice actor of Soldier 76 also doing the voice over for Vin Diesel.
Honestly, it's amazing that TF2 is either canon and likely played by some of the characters(judging by the voicelines) meaning it still exists and is popular, or that Blizzard is making a bow to its predecessor and rival.
I was thinking Rocket Jumping came from the Quake saga: there is a specific secret on Q2 that greets you for being a crazy Rocket Jumper There's also the master of unlocking (RE1 reference) with Dva/Sombra, but that's interaction ofc
im not sure if its an exact referance or not or if its from another media but d.va's voiceline "aw, you shouldnt have!" is the exact thing said in britney spears "oops i did it again"
Not enough LOTR references and one Zelda reference would make me oh so happy. But really, everyone's a critic and they packed a TON of really cool references into the voicelines. This is one of the redeeming qualities of Overwatch 2 and Blizzard games in general!
