Overwatch Characters Accents

[Jetstream]

Half of Europe? Son, there's plenty of AMERICA that makes fun of Texas, too. Hell, I'm from Mississippi - we rednecks get it almost as bad as you cowboys.

I know, right!?

[ChaosWolf]

I know, right!?

Yup. Heck, that gunslinger guy that's on the poster and not yet revealed... if they don't give him the biggest ten-gallon-hat Clint Eastwood-meets-John Wayne drawl ever, I'll be downright disappointed, as cliche Wild West as he looks.

[Charge me Doctor]

I guess you never played TF2. n' I got a manky eye. I'm a black, Scottish cyclops! They've got more *** than they've got the likes o' me!

They have these accents because they sound fun and interesting this way.

Ah'm yer huckleberry, pilgram! Ah'll shewt yew up good, varmint!

Oh god I typed it unclean unclean

I eagerly await an Australian themed character who yells "CRIKEY!" and "BONZA!" and "STREWTH I'M GONNA WALLOP YOU BUNCH OF FLAMIN' GALAHS!".

Bonus points if he's a mutant crocodile with a stingray lodged in his chest that he uses as a weapon. Must have hat with corks on it too.

I mean seriously, could it be any clearer that this game is going for cartoonish?

Seriously, though, why is everyone hung up on Tracer's Cockney accent, and nothing said about Rheinhardt's German one, or Hanzo's Japanese one, when those accents are just as unrealistic as hers? It's all part of the game flavor.

Am I the only one who thinks Torbjeorn's accent is the most cartoonish of all?

I'd settle for a straight-up Paul Hogan parody. "That's not a knife! This is a knife!"

They could never do a proper Aussie accent without the character screaming "CUNT!" all the time.

I'll look forward to Torbjörns accent. Even though I'm not a fan of Gothenburg.

It's gonna be weird seeing a dwarf without a Scots accent.

Tracer's mockney is absolutely terrible.

He is still closer to Scottish than Swedish

[Flutterguy]

Dwarves have always had mixed-accents.

[Sky High]

herr Reinhardt sounds pretty young for a 61 year old, need to hear more of his sounds bites though.

His ultimate move is running people down in a car yelling "Get on the right side of the road you pelican!".

That's what I thought.

[Budong]

the cockney accent is fine. Obviously its not meant to be accurate. English people aren't capable of expressing emotion such as cheer or excitement .

Hahahaha!

I laughed inordinately hard at this.

As ridiculous as Tracer's accent it, it's kind of endearing.

[CrossNgen]

I want to fix Tracer by punching her on the damn throat

And I'll only accept an Australian character if he is shirtless, fights with his bare hands, has chesthair in the shape of Australia and sports a full grown mustache

[Deleted]

how are any of those accents unrealistic... theyre real accents

Nobody in London talks like Tracer. At least not since Mary Poppins was floating about.

Valve already did that

[grexly75]

After the awfulness of the worgens and their " english " accent, why the hell should we continue to settle for mediocrity?

If they actually hired an English VA all the criticism could of been avoided. (As long as it wasn't a scouser)

I doubt it another game company hire a french female voice actor to voice a character in another game and folks complained that it was fake..

You assume I didn't know
