I have so much love for Reinhardt's last line "I have been called, I must answer....always." It references back to what his friend said, but it also shows how much he changed truly. The idea that it doesn't matter that he effectively got betrayed, pushed out of Overwatch after all his service, it doesn't matter if it's illegal. He has a duty, he must be the shield that protects, and until the day he dies, he will never, ever refuse to help those who ask for it. God I miss simple heroics like this, so much media these days tends to try and deconstruct/over complicate some things that are just so powerful in their simplicity.

And starts popping heads. Ana ends up on the other side of her scope, the two in a sniper duel. She understandably has a “What the fuck is Gerard’s wife doing here murdering people?” Moment and gets shot in the face. She survives but for some ungodly reason nobody is told. Things start to… degenerate from here… Reyes and Morrison start getting into spats. That one Blackwatch PvE event happens. Talon infiltration gets even worse. It’s kinda like the whole hydra taking over shield thing in Winter Soldier. But slower and less dramatic Reinhardt’s simple and incorruptible heroic nature made him a bane for the sadly more corrupt members of the organization. So as his years starting racking up, despite being *just* as capable a combatant and operative as always. It’s my understanding they started promoting him out of field duty and into meaningless positions where he literally could do *nothing* and was kept further out of the loop. He (along with Tracer I imagine) were something of a moral compass for a lot of Overwatch as well. So without his influence things got worse. Tldr the Tldr. Corrupt members basically decided his morality was in the way of their dealings and basically took away his ability to do… *anything*? That or they just forced him to retire because of his age in clear defiance of his competence and nobility

Ok i know this is long but. Widowmaker's backstory is actually so damn sad and tragic. in her former life, Widowmaker was married to Gérard Lacroix, an Overwatch agent spearheading operations against the Talon terrorist organization. After several unsuccessful attempts to eliminate Gérard, Talon decided to change its focus to his wife, Amélie. Talon operatives kidnapped her and subjected her to an intense program of neural reconditioning. They broke her will, suppressed her personality, and reprogrammed her as a sleeper agent. She was eventually found by Overwatch agents, apparently none the worse for wear, and returned to her normal life. Two weeks later she killed Gérard in his sleep. Her mission complete, Amélie returned to Talon, and they completed the process of turning her into a living weapon.

So it really isn't her fault and there are numerous hints in the game and comics that some part of her is starting to wake up and break the conditioning and she is full of regret and sadness. I really hope they do a redemption for Widowmaker, as you say she is such a tragic character. It hits especially hard when you realize that her intimidating name refers to herself killing her own husband, who she loved very much.

If Hanzo had kept his katana (he left it after he killed Genji) he would’ve beaten Genji in the Dragons cinematic. Hanzo left his katana out of respect for Genji, so he switched to bow and arrow. Hanzo is a better swordsman than Genji, however Genji does have his cybernetics which enhances his movement and overall defensive capabilities. So that would mean in canon Hanzo and Genji are similar in strength, Genji won the fight as he caught Hanzo off guard with him constantly talking about the day Hanzo killed Genji. Have a good day everyone.

A little bit of correction. We know that Hanzo was stronger than Genji with the sword before he killed him(At Blizzcon 2015 it was said Hanzo is probably better, not certain but probably). Genji at the time also led a life of constant partying, playboying and debauchery so it could affect his then skills However Genji skill must've improved since he came to Overwatch and because of cybernetics. Either way right now Genji is probably much better than Hanzo with a sword simply because he improved his swordskills a lot while working on Overwatch while Hanzo completely disregarded his swordskills and didn't train with a sword since Genji's death so his sword skills must've suffered a lot from almost a decade of lack of practice Following that thought, Hanzo right now is far better with a bow than he was with the sword just because he has more practice and experience using and fighting with a bow rather than a sword If Hanzo kept his katana he'd probably be better than Genji with the sword but since he left it completely, as of right now he's at the strongest with his bow

The Reinhardt one is my favorite by far. Always has been. It's the only one that gets me to tear up. The sheer amount of character development and backstory they pack into a few minutes of animation is amazing, really. It shows how in one battle the arrogant, narcissistic Reinhardt was humbled and truly came to understand the meaning of their corps' motto, "Live with honor, and die with glory." He was only in it for the glory and fame at first, but started living with honor and embodying his role as a crusader when he stopped caring only for himself, and set himself on fulfilling his duty to his men and country first and foremost. He became a true hero after that point.

Why won’t they actually just paying attention to the video

If you want to find out why the original Overwatch disbanded, then the story around the Blackwatch is what you need to find. Essentially a hit group that would do Overwatch's dirty work in the background, but a certain incident brought those actions to the forefront.

Lore facts you won't find out in game or from the videos. Reaper is an ex Overwatch member turned rogue and Widowmaker is the wife of an former Overwatch member who she murdered after being brainwashed and turned rogue

The Reinhardt one always gets me. “I have been called…I must answer” 😭😭

The most unrealistic part of all these cinematics is in the Mei one where she plugged that USB in on the first try.

Hanzo used to wield a sword too, but set it down permanently after "killing" genji. Reinhart had an ability in beta that let him throw his hammer like that but they replaced it. Rein is the last of the Crusaders I believe, and that WAS their castle. Balderich's castle.

I will never fail to be inspired or made teary-eyed by the Reinhardt cinematic. It's a masterpiece.

There are concept art for non playable characters too, you can see Wildebeest on that part, wich ended up being Reinhardt and Orisa

Regarding the Reinhardt cinematic (Honor & Glory) though the fighter jets were able to provide some aid, which helped the German military win the battle of Eichenwalde, Reinhardt is the only known Crusader who made it out alive. Balderich's (full name Balderich von Adler) remains lie dormant on the throne to this day out of respect for him. Also, the unit that mortally wounded Balderich was an OR14 "Edina" unit. Orisa is an OR15 unit developed by Numbani 20 years after the Omnic Crisis ended, with OR14s & many other omnic models used during the war ceasing production.

The reason they had a lot of Tracer v Widowmaker and Winston v Reaper in the early cinematics is because, in game, Tracer was supposedly designed to be the counter to snipers (like Widow) and Reaper was designed to be a counter to Tanks (like Winston).

It wasn't so much that they ended the Omnic Crisis and then were treated like villains. If my memory serves correct, the issue was that no matter how much Overwatch did, it never seemed to be enough. And when Blackwatch's whole off the records mission brought them into the light, that's when it really went south. They were supposed to apprehend Antonio Bartalotti to bring him in for questioning as he was the at the time leader of the terrorist organization Talon. Reyes (Reaper) killed him instead because he knew taking him hostage wasn't going to do anything since Antonio would likely be released within the day due to his influence. (Though some speculate that Reyes was already tied in with Talon at this point and was getting rid of the leader to make room for 'advancement') Blackwatch was technically an illegal team that worked in the shadows cleaning up messes Overwatch couldn't tackle because of moral boundaries. So Blackwatch killing an 'innocent man' (Antonio went by another name, Antonio Giordani, to the public) and everyone finding out that Blackwatch was a part of Overwatch, really tipped the scales out of their favor to ask for forgiveness.

I really love how they made Bastion alot like the Iron giant.

here is a quick thing i wish to say, in the next video you all make about these cinematics it would be very nice for everyone if you pause at any time you need to speak about in-game stuff, you miss a lot of things from the actual lore and characters if you talk when the video is playing, specially about things that have absolutely nothing to do with the video you are watching, i am not sure if you guys have a set time to do these or whatever, but if you have the free time there is no problem in pausing, while i personaly dont enjoy when all of you talk about in-game stuff i get that you do, so pausing when you wish to say something about the game would work out for both sides i believe. Also, there were a lot of moments where the video sound was way to loud, so loud that you cant even hear you guys reactions.

I think one of my favorite parts about the reinhardt one was how he was always saying the die with glory part wanting to die a glorious death in battle, but ended up being the one who had to live with honor instead

I can assure you all, we Rein mains live by the Crusader Oath. Those who don't are not considered one of us.

Still get's me... "Mac Ready" It's an homage to the movie The Thing, which takes place at an Antarctic research station. Eco Point is also an Antarctic research station. R.J. MacReady was the helicopter pilot played by Kurt Russell.

"You think they fused??" Man's got anime brain now 😂😂

The reason they are treated like villains is because they had a underground group called black watch that handle more serious issues in a more violent way, but one of the missions made one of the leaders kill a crime boss and that news got out to the public, now without context it seems that they just kill people without reason, so people now feared them and made them go offline

I love Reinhardt’s cinematic as his voice is so soft compared to how he actually sounds during games

The cinematic in the museum is kinda old and weird because in the beginning during the explanation of what overwatch was, Lucio and Zenyatta were there. Lucio was not in overwatch yet and Zenyatta never joins overwatch as far as we know.

there’s so many heartbreaking backstories in this game, i feel like overwatch’s cinematics really brought it to life in the beginning.

The Crusader's armor basically functions like their own burial/grave for when they die. Kinda like warhammer 40k marines. Except in warhammer, even when you're dying or dead, they will still put you in a casket hooked up to machines, and basically put your corpse into a bigger suit of armor, and they pilot it around while basically being hooked up to futuristic life support.

Idk what the map is called now, last I saw it had a different name. Maybe that was for the Halloween event or something, but it use to be called eichenwalde.

Since you mentioned maps a few times, lets talk about which shorts take place in which maps. Recall takes place in the attacker spawn rooms for Watchpoint: Gibraltar and Horizon Lunar Colony. Hero takes place in Dorado. Alive takes place in King's Row. Dragons takes place in Hanamura. The Last Bastion and Honor & Glory take place in Eichenwalde. The Overwatch Cinematic trailer doesn't place in non-playable space in Numbani (fun fact: The Numbani payload used to have Doomfist's glove in it before he was added to the game). Rise and Shine takes place in Ecopoint: Antarctica. In later videos you'll see Volskaya Industries, Busan, Route 66, Paris, Junkertown, and Kanezaka.

I'm pretty sure The Last Bastion takes place on the outskirts of Numbani. I could be wrong but thats what i always thought.

You sir are a hero

I like how they said chronological order but Reinhardt is the older one even if it is just a flashback, then again it is after Winston recalled them

Fun Facts: Zenyattas, and his brother Mondatta, was talking from the 1980 Police album. Zenyattas Mondatta was a huge album from the band; as the song "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" comes from that album, as well as "Don't Stand So Close To Me". Zenyattas Mondatta reached number one on the British charts, and number 5 on the US billboard charts.

I feel sorry for Ruff when watching the Dragons one. Everyone kept spoiling the brother part or rambling on about people being bad at the characters in the game.

On the Blizzard/Riot comparison, I think people for sure would call Blizzard the kings of cinematics, though it certainly feels like Riot has stolen that title in more recent times along with Blizz's general loss in popularity.

What do you mean they need remove the freeze from her ult? It's the whole point of her ult and there was no problem with it, therefore they don't need to change it. The only problem Mei had, was the freeze from her weapon. It was annoying and a little OP.

these overwatch cinematics are and will always be fire, even if the game is going under fire.

Fun fact: Mei's VA wasnt entirely fluent in english yet while recording the short, so that accent is very authentic.

Bastion and Reinhardt shorts are my favorite. They are so good x3.

Man I miss seeing Winstons message every time I started overwatch. Really hyped you up to win some matches

Sad I coudln't hear you guys sometimes over the cinematics but still had a blast. Heading over to part 2 now!

I love these types of videos cus the reactors always start yapping when important dialogue happens, it's like a skill 😂

Sooo just an FYI. When theres combat and a lot of noises going on, noone can hear anything what you guys are saying. So either comment after or..idk change your sound settings lol

"Hanzo is hitscan" 😂😂

Hanzo is a hitscan and you have to aim as genji. I think I got a brain aneurysm from just that one sentence.

You know what, this was the first video I saw of you guys. Going back and watching it to kill time at work and still holds up lol.

Usually I’m not a fan of group videos but this one I couldn’t look away I love over watch and the reactions are so cool

I dont know why, but i have such an emotional conection with this game!! I cry everytime i watch those cinematics just because i know i live in a time where i can play this game

"why did she even act upset" re: Snowball's sacrifice... He sacrificed himself to give them both a chance. if he sacrifices himself, she could make contact, get rescued, and save them both. If there's no power at all, they both die, because she doesn't make contact so no one can come for him either.

That's Mondatta, Zenyatta is one of his followers.

As I'm pretty sure has been pointed out by now, Overwatch was disbanded after the leader of Blackwatch, the black ops division, Gabriel Reyes, now Reaper, went rogue on a mission and eliminated a capture target of high status, leading to the discovery of Blackwatch. This caused controversy which ultimately resulted in Overwatch getting disbanded.

Bro, this is not a reaction, it's a 1 hour discussion.

Dude in orange shirt is constantly yapping 😭‼️

22:18 I never noticed Sojourn here

When they put on the helmet the armor locks and only the one wearing it can open it. So if they die wearing the armor no one can unlock it and it becomes their tomb. That's why he is still sitting on the chair.

Cant wait for pt 2

He is still in his armor. A crusader's armor is their tomb.

there is actually an interaction in game with sombra on 2 diffrent occasions one she says that she has read reinhard files and what happend and the other where she metions always feeling sad when she enters eichenwald its a nice touch thought i would mention it

the most effort they ever put into this game

If you get close enough as Genji to deflect the arrow before the dragons appear, you can indeed send the dragons back at Hanzo

some of these still make me emotional for some reason man

Btw, this is DEFINITELY not in chronological order. I'm not sure who said that but yeah lol. Still, to get an full understanding of the the story, watching shorts alone ain't enough so it's fine.

the guy top right kept talking about random stuff wtf

First off, I enjoyed your reactions immensely and love these shorts. That being said, I couldn't have been the only one shouting at the screen for you guys to shut the l^&* up while talking during ALL the dialogue scenes. Like, pause it between shorts and have a quick discussion or even stop the short if you want to add in an important comment. Okay, rant over. Cheers and I'll be watching the next one now..

Everytime when it gets Emotional... someone suddenly gotta talk. Good Video tho

Cant wait to see your reaction to Kiriko

*sees and hears a flatline with darker music*, "I'm presuming that's a good thing" 😐

If you pay attention to every map that has been used in these cinematics there are a bunch of maps that still have their initial damage (some damage has been removed due to overwatch 2 being a timeskip between 1)

58:55 The most honorable place for a warrior to be laid to rest is on the field he died fighting on is a story piece that most people don't really understand.

Hanzo and genji both trained with swords, the sword in the shrine is the same one Hanzo used to “kill” Genji when he was ordered to, since that day Hanzo has refused to use a sword again as it’s a symbol of his biggest mistake

I really love the concept of "Group Reaction" when you can interact with each other
