It seems like Ken focuses on individual characters while Bethany picks up on themes and big picture ideas from your reactions. I think that makes you two really cool, kind of building one another's perspectives in a complimentary way.
Soldier 76 was at one point the Leader of Overwatch Jack Morrison. When Overwatch was shut down and their headquarters attacked and blown up, it was believed he died inside. Pretty much living on rage and resentment now, he's gone full Vigilante with a bit of a lean towards justice by any means rather than by the book. Hence when asked why he saved her he replied with "Old habits die hard I guess."
He started as a Captain America/Superman kinda hero, a symbol of hope for everyone to look up to, someone people can admire After Overwatch was shut down, more specifically after his fight with Gabriel Reyes, the man who would one day become Reaper, Jack was forced to leave, he went rogue, essentially becoming the Batman of their universe, turning from the light to fight evil in the darkness And just like Batman, he prioritizes innocent lives above all else
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I love watching your reactions! Please continue the Overwatch animations and also check out the World of Warcraft ones, theres some amazing drawn stylized ones that you will love!
Note about the Visor: It's a tactical visor, and the way he used it in the short is essentially how it's used in the game. It's a super-ability with a long cooldown that basically gives him a few seconds of auto-aim - if there's a target on the screen, you don't need to aim at them, the game will just shoot at them automatically. "I've got you in my sights..."
I know it's been a whole year but I haven't seen anyone mention that the poster Alejandra looks at at the start of the cinematic and then takes home at the end is a poster of Jack/Soldier 76 when he was younger during the Overwatch days.
It may already have been mentioned or you may already know, but there's a bunch of shorter backstory ones called "Origins", including one for this guy (Soldier 76). They can help give some additional background on some of the characters seen in the shorts. Glad to see another Overwatch video from you guys though! Can't wait for when you see "Dragons" and "Honor and Glory"
When designing characters, one if the original creators showed a comic series he was drawing/writing behind the scenes. Soldier 76 was designed based off of the main character from that comic. So his comic (which was just a hobby) is forever a main character in such a big game
Your gonna love the Overwatch cinematic series, so many great ones in there. By the time it's finished it's quite difficult to choose your favourite ones as they are all so good :). I will say Dragons is alot peoples favourite.
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Cool, just found you guys (I watch other utube reacters to), but so far liking you guys, you seem like nice friendly people, keep up the good work guys. Already subscribed and turned on notifications :)
I love Fred Tatasciore, man. Such a great VA and great dude overall. And if you thought THIS was a western, man, wait 'til you get to Reunion. Fun reaction. Enjoy the ride! Blizzard probably won't make any more of these again now that priorities have changed so much internally.
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I believe so there is a species of barn owl with colorations like this so if you do ever travel near farms be on the lookout!! :)
You couldnt be more right about him being "the old cowboy of the old west". A lot of his lines in the game itself are almost exact Clint Eastwood quotes from various movies lol...my personal fav after taking someone out is "young punks, get off my lawn"
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames yes it really is a line you can spam during a match. Not just from his westerns, he even has "do you feel lucky?", "I'm not your father", and "I'm the one who does his job. I'm thinking, you're the other one".
The Overwatch animated shorts are all really good, though my personal favorite is "Dragons." BTW, you should totally react to the soundtrack for the Ace Combat games. The tracks I would recommend: Ace Combat 6: Liberation of Gracemeria Ace Combat 5: First Flight Ace Combat Zero: Zero Ace Combat 7: Daredevil
You’ve started a great series, I’m from the league community so I’m here for the league and overwatch stuff, love the content so far! Ahh I’m excited for the Overwatch Dragons reaction!!
"the division yesterday trailer" This is an incredibly cool video about the game, I highly recommend watching. I don't know why there are no reactions on it
Not sure if you guys noticed, but on the poster that the girl tore down it kinda zoomed in on one of the guys on the poster. That is the cyclops guy in his old days as a hero of Overwatch =)
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames not only one of them, but he was a leader of the overwatch. Then he was "killed" in the bombing attempt on the overwatch headquarters.
I would love to see you guys react to all the Elder Scrolls Online cinematic trailers! I think you guys would LOVE them as well. Keep up the great work and fun reactions! ❤️
Really really enjoying your reactions. You may want to try "Warhammer 40,000 The New Edition Cinematic Trailer" Warhammer universe is immerse and solid reputation as being a grim-dark, high-gothic genre. Pretty darn good overall. Also "Astartes" a video series created by one man is fairly famous due to it's insane quality and dedication. Heck he even hired by GW (parent company of warhammer)
YEah, I can see the Western in this..... but you really haven't seen anything yet. This is a great story once it's all put together at the end. Got-A-Watch-Em-All. Cheers Oh, before I forget, the Moon thingy, is a Moon Base/City. I'll leave it at that
If you guys are going by chronological order of release, there's a playlist you can find just by searching Overwatch Animated Shorts. The first short is "Recall" and the last is "Zero Hour". You guys are in for a wild ride hope this helps!
This is the one we’ve been going off of. One our community members shared it with us ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Qx0M-cXXUyU.html it claims to be in chronological order up to 2020 🤗
When youre done with Overwatch, i highly recommend you watch all the Final Fantasy XIV Cinematics, also in order A Realm Reborn (A New Beginning), Heavensward, Stormblood, Shadowbringers and Endwalker they are some of the best cinematics out there I also highly recommend the World of Warcraft cinematics as well: World of Warcraft, The Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm, Mists of Pandaria, Warlords of Draenor, Legion, Battle for Azeroth and Shadowlands
We had FF XIV on our list but not in order. Thanks for letting us know that. Also we have started some WoW. Jumped around for our first two vids but plan on going back now and starting with Warcraft 3 cinematics 🙃ru-vid.com/group/PLzMaVaJ7UYI3luBfZUeTOgDakb2b6CumN
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames sweet. The wow cinematic are pretty cool and fun but the ff14 cinematic are among my most fav of all..being a ff14 player since its 1.0 beta days..it's got a special place in my heart
PLEASE DESTINY TRAILERS haha, I've been playing for years and I just know you two will enjoy them..... I know it's on your list but you should consider moving it up cause you won't regret it 👍😁
