Yeah I'd like to see more villain characters but also more "villain" skins. Some of them are pretty ambiguous, I suspect given the nature of the game we will slowly get more and more characters that can lean either way, which is kind of the point. The Junkers both are clearly villains, yet have been played out as just mercenaries. The Talon characters we do have are all basically our Villain options: Hanzo, Reaper, Widowmaker and now Sombra. I would expect this trend to continue. As for villain skins I'd consider: Omnic Crisis Bastion, Devil Mercy, Anubis Pharah, Blackhardt Reinhardt to be among those, which are stretches but I think fair.

But yeah, story wise to gameplay the character translation doesn't really work at all. The real hook is the plight of the Omnic, of which a number of both "good" and "bad" characters are more or less racist toward. At it's heart and the maps we have been given this conflict is central to the "story". Calling it a story though is pretty far off. A lack of narative will forever be a plight to this game. Zarya for example is pretty clearly a Villain given her map and personal view points in opposition to the Overwatch modus operandi, but most wouldn't consider her such.

Personally I like my villains deeper and more in the gray territory anyway. Overwatch is doing a good job of this to some extent. Most of the characters could really sway either way in some capacity, which makes how muddled the maps objectives are sort of work. It seems odd that Bastion, Genji and Zenyatta would ever deliver an EMP that would wipe them out to wipe out the Omnics in London, thats a failing but it's honestly a very minor suspension of disbelief you have to give it given the nature of the games core modes. We all want a single player game and given this last months brawl it might actually be possible, but I wouldn't count on ever seeing it. I would like to see more Omnics though, theres a few kicking around in the background of group shots in the art. It's all a matter of time... which is to say... it doesn't feel like they are releasing them fast enough, given how long Sombra has taken it's almost soul crushing. On the other hand how many characters is too many...

Ew

No lol.

There's still a good chance she'll turn out to be the leader of Los Muertos. She seems like the type to make her goons tattoo glow-in-the-dark skeletons on their bodies.

yeah it is a male.

I want the sidecut meme to end.

That sombra art looks stupid.

she will probably be a defense minion hero.

Don't you want to be a strong woman who don't need no man, Drusus?

I know a few non-SJW's who have it (and some who are). It still doesn't suit most women in my opinion, but here we are.

Vi >>> Sombra.

Also, Drusus is right. It doesn't look good on most people.

Mallow is best girl

Even that is a better character design than Sombra.

Hell all of the new pokemon sun and moon characters are better character design and the same goes for the ultra beasts.

Eh, the skirt on Vi screams over designed. Sombra's art is at least consistent if heavy on the techno vibe.

And I'm a fan of symmetrical buzz, but the half shave trend is odd.

Vi skirt is only there because they went too hardcore with the tech vibe and forgot Piltover is supposed to be steampunk

You consider your hag hair leonine? Cackle
