One adventure ends - another begins.
With the recent 10 year anniversary of @PlayOverwatch, I found myself reflecting on the path that brought me here.
It's a crazy feeling to see a whole journey toward one goal and dream in a photo.
Every shirt and logo tells a story.๐งต1/5
This is how the @OverwatchLeague ends.
One final monarch ruling for all time.

@lmenzell Yeah, I also think any future films need to just build out the sequel era or start fresh with a relatively unknown era.
The average moviegoer doesn't pay attention to anything besides the core movies and has the attn span of a walnut so anything short of a soft reboot won't work
Hot take Mandalorian and grogu isnโt that bad
Itโs forgettable and inoffensive but like, holy people forget how bad these movies can be
Itโs definitely better than AOTC and TRoS for sure, like a solid 2/5 but reasonably fun if you donโt use your brain
@lmenzell I also don't think it's at an all time low at all. It's just an all time low for Disney, who was expecting to take over the world with the franchise.
I think it's okay for Star Wars to be on the small screen and be niche nerd franchise with mostly animated content, books+comics
@lmenzell Like I'm convinced general audiences will not accept anything less than main Skywalker Saga big movie lightsaber space battle death star checklist.
anything else is for the hardcore fans unfortunately, I really don't think the average moviegoer is capable of handling deep lore
Also itโs incredibly odd that it weirdly feels like the *least* formulaic Star Wars movie since itโs not trying to hit the entire checklist of Star Wars tropes and is just satisfied with being two side quest episodes of Mandalorian duct taped together with a bigger budget
Happy 10 year anniversary, Overwatch!
While the game launched 10 years ago, Team 4 started working on it in mid-2013. I'd like to take you all through some of that original journey that the team took to launch the game.
Hey, gang! You may have noticed weโve gone a few weeks without a Weeklyish Recall or Directorโs Take. The Comms team is LOCKED IN prepping S3 (+ dealing with a few sicknesses). Weโll be back to regular programming soon. For nowโฆyou might want to watch OWCS Japan this weekend. ๐
@westofhouse this sequence in the first season in particular drove me up a wall lol, using these types of lenses willy nilly when adapting from animation is just stylistically wack to me
Personal pet peeve but I really hate when adaptations of 2D animation use very wide lenses without intention. 2D animation usually doesnโt show lens distortion or any artifacts like that unless itโs super intentional, and the airbender live action uses them really sloppily tbh
@westofhouse Good place to take inspo but Shogun is way more intentional with its cinematography imo But yea I think it's just a trendy look for two shots and wides
For example the recent GDT Frankenstein has so so so many shots with incredibly wide lenses and tons of distortion
This is what a decade of Overwatch sounds like ๐ผ
