Okay, I've watched all of the trailers for the Overwatch heroes.
I kind of get why everyone's comparing it to TF2 as the go-to now? I can see a connection for every TF2 class except Pyro.
There's not really a spy equivalent either.
That's understandable. Spy works in TF2 because 14 player teams means that it's easy for a fifteenth to slip in. Overwatch, afaik, has 5-player teams, so it doesn't work.
There's a reason why you rarely see spies in pro-TF2, which traditionally uses 6-players.
in hindsight, Reaper does actually fit as a Spy analogue. High damage output at close range, effective if somewhat obvious evasion tactics, by far the edgiest character in their respective games
Also, Mei could arguably be a decent match-up for Pyro?
I mean, opposing elements aside, they both have a close-range weapon that applies status effects (and a very long-range one that combos if you coordinate their usage), her ice heal is basically the phlogistinator's mmmph effect, they both have a strong emphasis on area control (Mei with Ice Walls and Pyro with airblasts), and they're both relatively innocent-acting characters
Roadhog also works, being a masked guy with short range and knockback powers.
I've also decided that, while Overwatch does improve on a number of things from TF2, the selection of characters seems a bit...overly archetypal?
Torbjorn is an archetypal dwarf engineer. Mercy is an archetypal pacifist healer. Zarya is your standard giant Russian. And so on and so forth. It's like the characters are cool because of what they are over who they are. Contrast with TF2, where Engie's characterized by his casual, Southern nature, Medic's a nut with no sense of medical ethics whatsoever, and Heavy's...okay, not the best example, but he's boisterous as hell.
The only characters whose backstories made me sit up and pay attention were Mei, Tracer, Lucio/Symmetra, and Zenyatta. Everyone else feels so...surface level. Not necessarily a dealbreaker -- Junkrat is still awesome, even if the mad bomber archetype is pretty passe at this point -- but it's something bugging me
If I ever get Overwatch, I'm probably going to play Reaper (because, hey, I like playing Spy and he's basically Overwatch's Spy), and I hate that because Reaper is the most boringly edgy character I've seen since Hatred.
Honestly, I thought Tumblr was overreacting, but I was wrong. I was wrong you guys. He really is that much of an edgelord.
felt sick, feverish and with a headache, card got declined trying to top up phone, forgot to take painkillers, stopped by bank branch, they couldn't help, told me to phone the bank ASAP but of course i had no credit, work stressful, running out of a bunch of burger dressings, spent my entire break on restaurant landline on hold attempting to phone bank, had to clock back in before they picked up, walked home in rain, GOOD NEWS: my money is safe and my card works at the cash point, however i lost the pull tab from my wallet's zipper in the back of a taxi so that's annoying

Anonus and I went to Village Inn for dinner...it's right across from the hotel so we just walked.
Drivers in Denver are not like drivers in Columbus, who actually stop for pedestrians in a crosswalk.
There is a coin called the Twogroat. It is of course not worth two groats. Rather it comes about because six years ago, a forger began stamping fake "two groat" coins containing less proper metal than two groats are worth and pocketing the difference. However, the coin proved popular for the many varied designs (resulting from the forger changing obverse every week so that one week's production could not be compared to the next) and after the forger's mysterious disappearance, the twogroat was eventually declared an official coin determined to be worth 20 shillings based on metal content.
This whole story is complicated further by 1) a second round of forgeries of new fake twogroats have begun appearing recently, and 2) some runs of original fake twogroats, while technically legal tender, are also sought as collectibles. Numismatists will pay 5-10 groats for certain original fake twogroats.
