He is mentally unstable and seems to like not wearing socks and shoes.
It helps him.
(And he needs it, “Black Hole trauma” like his is the worst experience I could possible imagine. He literally went through hell and still is.)
And you guys trying to force designers to make him wear shoes.
Just Shameful.
Give Sigma Heelys
It’s more because his bare feet look extremely out of place in his default design.
Shoes are like prisons for your feet.
Everyone who hates their job has to wear shoes to work.
People who hate their jobs often feel as though they are imprisoned…
Do you see the direct correlation? Sigma, in his madness, is far closer to understanding the true nature of this world.
Yeah I don’t think so.
But who really knows.
Likely the lore around the feet as disappeared by now. (With the recent reorganization.)
(Did not have a good night and first topic I see is someone complaining about the feet.)
There was a fan comic with Sombra and Moira that kinda explains it.
And I was just trying to echo that.
Sigma shows off not only his feet but also his balls, making for a great tank design.
Then this should probably be a reply to that post, instead of blurting it out as a totally separate topic. As someone who didn’t see the post to which you’re replying, it just looks like you’re two years late to the jokes from when Sigma released.
who judges sigmas feet?? i like those little piggys being out!
His feet don’t touch the ground - why does he need shoes? He’s made the rational decision to not waste time dealing with an issue that only concerns pathetic earthbound losers.
Ya’know.
He might have toe nail fungus.
That stuff is contagious, you know.
Also, the corner store wont let him in unless he wears shooooooz. How else he finna get his milk?
Shoes must be worn at all times.
Yeah? well you know, that’s just like uh, your opinion, man.
Next year’s experimental patch should put a “no shoes, no shirt, no service” sign in the streets outside of first point on Paris and then block Sigma (and Ball?) from entering (as if they were enemy spawn rooms).
(Obviously, the sign should be in French.)
What about Winston? He doesn’t wear shoes too
Fair point. Also, Doom may have some shirtless skins…
And, if you really want to get technical, do any of the omnic characters actually wear clothes (maybe Zen in some skins; not sure if he wears slippers).
There is actualy info from blizz somewhere:
"Sigma’s origin story showcased the former scientist being institutionalized. As you may (or may not) know, those who are checked into asylums are often not provided footwear, mostly as a safety precaution. “We decided to keep the feet bare to sell the ‘asylum’ look a bit more,” Fang explains. The lack of footwear also draws more attention to Sigma’s gravity shackles, which also evokes the image of a prisoner.
Meaning…boots have shoelaces and inmates had tendency to hand themselves on them…
I think this is in response to me asking the devs to make him more skins with shoes lol. He already has lots of feet skins, so there’s nothing wrong with some more shoe skins
