Like girl, what you think this is? A Victoria’s Secret fashion show? Seriously, if you don’t notice the amount of eyeshadow she has on her default skin, you will after watching that last Storm Rising cutscene
“It’s such a shame when a woman doesn’t look as good as she feels. Don’t you agree?” ~Sonya, Fire Emblem
Young Genji and Hanzo wear eyeliner. Zarya paints her nails. Doomfist has tribal facepaint and D.Va has facepaint whiskers.
But no, let’s focus on Mercy. Pre-mission warpaint rituals couldn’t possibly exist on a medic.
At this point, I’m just gonna say she’s probably acting like Lady Jolder from Destiny
“Jolder smiled. “Tell Rience he can send two. Otherwise—” Jolder finished the line of kohl with a flick of her wrist, leaving a sharp black wing at the corner of her eye. ‘My battle-paint will be for nothing.’” - Grimoire card, where it’s basically stated she calls eyeliner “Battle Paint”
Where the heck do you find eyeliner in a distant somewhat-apocolyptic future I will never know.
She doesn’t apply eyeshadow before her missions.
She wakes up every morning looking that fabulous.
Because she likes makeup? Why are you judging her choices. Maybe she enjoys kicking butt and looking good while doing it?
Why do any of these hero’s have their own unique sense of style? Why don’t they all just wear burlap sacks for clothes and paper bags over their heads?
??? She likes eyeshadow, so she wears eyeshadow.
Not any explaination needed. McCree wears a cowboy hat, he likes cowboy hats. End of story.
That doesn’t look like eyeshadow, it looks like sleep deprivation
She’s tired of Genji’s endless requests for healing
She wants to look beautiful for Genji.
He’s convenient when you want to apply makeup.
He’s a walking mirror.
I’ll always welcome Fire Emblem quotes.
Yeah his sword is good for that.
She keeps herself pretty for Genji.
He keeps his blade sharp for Mercy.
A match made in heaven.
She could be putting it on for herself. Some girls just like to get themselves all made up because it what they like-not for everyone else.
wow, another complaint about mercy. how surprising
I’ve never posted before. Since now I just read the discussions, but you, my man, you are a man of culture and made me log in just to say it.
And it’s a joke…lighten up.
Hidden lore… Mercy’s actually a post-op plastic surgery burn victim, and the “make-up” is actually her facial features tattooed on. Ya like making fun of burn victims??? What’s wrong with you??
Dude, Sombra’s purple eye shadow is way thicker, not to mention her plucked eye brows and purple lipstick.
Honestly, is it so bad that the female characters in the game look good?
Because she has every right to look the way she wants.
