McCree's new name is just ugly, McCloud would've been better

I had made my peace with them changing the name, it doesn’t really matter that much, I don’t look at their names anymore anyways and it doesn’t affect the gameplay. But honestly… the name is ugly IMO. Why not go for McCloud (Joel McCloud, James McCloud, Jesse McCloud), sounds way better, this Cole Cassidy? sorry I don’t see it, it doesn’t fit him but meh, I’ll just ignore it and keep calling him McCree.

I thought they’d go with McCloud… but maybe it was too similar to McCree. McCloud would just be a constant reminder of McCree.

I guess they would still witch hunt the name as long as there s a “Mc” in it.

That would be taking it too far IMO. So everytime they see McDonalds will they be traumatized? Come on…

Then why did you even make this thread in the first place if the name doesn’t matter to you?

I would of loved McCloud. Well, anything with the “Mc” still in it. I want to McMeme!

Why would they go with McCloud? That hero concept has nothing to do with Cassidy.

Look, they can go with anything as long as it doesnt sound like a cow just barfed.

I don’t think they own the name McCloud. And at least is not a real person and also it doesn’t make me think of a murdering bank robber.

I would have preferred that they would name him ___, but have him get a codename, like Tracer, Reaper, etc.

Joel McCloud sounds like a highlander. Which, you know, could be an interesting character to add to Overwatch.

From the sound of it, they definitely would feel uncomfortable and offended everytime they drive by McDonalds on their way to work.

Interestingly enough, back when Overwatch was Project TITAN, there was a character concept called “MacCloud” that looked oddly similar to McCree’s design. Thus, McCloud would make more sense: an homage to Project TITAN, since we most likely won’t be getting “Mama Hong” anytime soon.
