How cool would it be

:sunglasses:…Though Secretly I wanted Leonora theory disproven, saying she was dead. (But this will do) (Unless I was right, Which even I find crazy because it’s a theory most have just ignored. :innocent:)

I can so picture Pharah’s taste of music, you know? I can see her listening to AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Guns N’ Roses. As a teenager, listening to those lying on her bed, with her feet up the wall, the wall covered in rock music and Overwatch posters. Following in the footsteps of so many older sibling figures - McCree, Angela, Lena - And cool foster aunts and uncles - Reinhardt, Jack, Gabriel, Winston, the LaCroixs - I can see how she idolized an older age, her heroes and rock’n’roll. How she was as a teenager, rushing, impatiently to be one of them.

I bet she was listening to all that classic rock in her room and imagining her future adventures. I bet she was a “cool girl” as a teenager, dropping smooth comebacks she learned from McCree, wearing vintage sunglasses, thinking that the music of her generation sucked, how she had to be out there in the world, just waiting to get out of school and enlist in Overwatch already.

Junkrat likes katy perry (he had a “baby i’m a firework!” line in beta, and he does the backkid dance in heroes of the storm) he will also sometimes hum the " 1812 Overture" so i’m guessing he’s a fan of pop and classical music.

omg im so happy u saw this!

So who’s the Metalhead of the bunch ? Brig ?

maybe this thread could be usefull
(shameless selfpromotion ;D lel)

Wouldn’t it be Reaper?

He’d publicly say he loves metal but secretly, all alone in his bedroom he’d listen to Linkin Park.
Crawliiiing in my skiiiiin

To be more serious I imagine Gabriel Reyes listening to Grunge (especially Nirvana or any similar band they’ll have in the future) , then as Reaper hating his life so much he’s stopped listening to music.

Alright so my only question is this - Switzerland Overwatch HQ, official international delegation arriving and Strike Commander Jack Morrison furiously asking all present personnel on the intercom to stop all nonessential disruptions to the conference, all because somewhere, through an open window, the entire base can hear a song playing:

Smash Mouth: All Star

My question is who put that on?

(The only people not hearing it are Jesse McCree who’s somewhere in a bar putting on Country Roads on the jukebox and Moira O’Deorain who’s alone in her lab working with a big headphone on, listening to the Naruto season 3 soundtrack)

I was thinking once what exactly would the Overwatch heroes listen to, but then, the lore is set in the 70’s, or something, of 21st century. So much different music would be released up to that date that it doesn’t really seem believable to everyone listen only to the songs made prior to 2019, let’s say.

I’d rather see some completely made-up names :stuck_out_tongue:

I could see Brigitte listening to pantera tbh

Well, judging by skins we have for all the heroes, we can also assume that:

  • Reaper is really into Mariachi bands, a lot (two skins!)
  • Moira loves Glam Rock (David Bowie skin)
  • Tracer is all into Punk Rock (also two skins!)
  • Zarya is either into some really heavy metal, or emo rock

Missed anyone?

junkrat and roadhog enjoying some ac/dc?

Roadhog has the headbanging emote. :metal:

junkrat seems to be more into pop music

also for roadhog he could be into metal but he does make a reference to snoopdog in a beta voice line

Hey also D.Va is a big fan of Lució’s music, she says so herself.

Junkrat may actually be into J-Pop like Vocaloid or AKB48, or some type of asian pop culture music. (Assuming from his love of Milk Tea/Boba drinks. Although I could be mistaken)

It also makes me laugh when I think of Junkrat trying to sing lyrics to a Hatsune Miku song

We figured that from the emotes and voice lines you guys gave us. But what about other heroes? Isn’t D.va a fan of Lúcio’s music? I assume Lúcio likes the kind of music he makes, but what about everyone else?

How cool would it be if the writers actually bothered to write stories about these characters rather than 8 word answers on useless and insignificant issues.

Its been 3 YEARS since this game released and we still have no clue what is going on.
This ain’t an MMO. Its a shooter. And no shooter lives past the couple of years it has. Just look at your loot box revenues and tell me how they are doing.

“Hey guys! After 3 years Soldier is gay! Ana and Soldier are STILL in the same room we showcased when we announced Tracer’s sexuality!”
*Slow clap

I would have thought Widowmaker/Amelie would listen to Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (Swan Lake) since she did ballet.

We already know Moira’s
