Who is the worst character going of personality?

Dva by a long way.

Anything that makes you successful, I guess?

I mean, Internet “celebs” such as Pewdiepie" make millions of dollars playing games online and being immature kids. There is an audience for that, so there is money to be made. If it works, it works.

Besides, apparently Dva is some sort of beacon of hope for her country since she actually fights off the omnics. If I understood her lore correctly, she was specifically chosen as a mecha pilot since she was a popular streamer. I suppose her joining the military and kicking omnic a*s was a means to inspire the Korean population. It sounds ridiculous, but bear in mind that Korea puts Esport teams on a pedestal. Even their national soccer team regards Starcraft players as way superior beings.

Yeah, the lore bit about her being a Starcraft pro has been retconned (which is ridiculous as it is, since it makes Dva the first OW character that actually has even LESS lore than what she has started with), but it still applies, I guess.

I have the theory that Dva in actuality isn’t all that “cringy” in private, and her “cringiness” is merely a persona she dubs whenever she streams for the folks bakc home. But that’s just me and until we get more lore on her, we may never know what’s really up with her.

Apparently, two years into the game isn’t enough time to flesh out characters…

D.Va. She literally doesn’t even exist in lore: no background except for “ehy I’m a gamer girl now fighting for my country”, no animated shorts, no appearance in comics (except a single cameo last Christmas), no relations with other characters. She has only her voicelines, which aren’t even canon. She’s the only one with that status (Zarya and Mei were the same before, but at least they got a comic and an animated short).
Moreover, she has silly and childish voicelines with an annoying voice, in both English and my mother language. At least in HOTS she’s funny with a lot of joking about other heroes and meta-references, in OW she’s just annoying.

If I have two characters I don’t really like in personality case, I’m gonna say Tracer and D.va

-For me, Tracer has some common points with many shonen protagonists. Incredibly enthusiast, naive and kinda happy-go-lucky to the point It’s annoying. Plus, they tend to never give up on anything because they believe they do the right thing but It looks they don’t understand It’s not as simple as they thought.

-D.va is, in my eyes, the “hardcore girl gamer”. Loving to taunt hers opponents, claiming she’s the best, arrogant? and the fact all those “girly stuffs” (pink, rabbit, cat, cosplay,…). I’m not fan of those things.

It’s not even funny how the HOTS team manages to do Dva far more justice than the OW team. Better voice lines, better character interactions. Heck, even her character works better in that game. She is an actual tank over there, not some character who suffers from an identity crisis since the devs can’t figure out what to do with her.

Heck, Dva even appeared in a HOTS cinematic way before she even got an animated short for OW. That’s just sad. She gets more love in a crossover game than her actual game of origin.

Mei. I just can’t stand the whole “It’s gonna be okay, happy, sunshine” additude.

I wouldn’t say worse, but Zarya personality is so hard to like. She is always mad, she is always teasing someone. She doesn’t like nice omnics like Orisa and Zenyatta even when they are saying cool things to her. She has little to no connection with anyone on the game roster.
i also don’t like Genji, sometimes he is a straight out bully. Junkrat is annoying, but at least he is funny. Besides them I’m cool with everyone else.

Are you high? Hanzo has 10x more personality than most of the other heroes. I can’t stand heroes like Genji and D.va who are so generic and predictable, they are literally just pure fan service characters with no well developed backstory or personality, same goes to heroes like Pharah and Mercy but to a slightly lesser extent.

Pharah has NO personality, so I therefore don’t care about her. At all. She’s an annoying flying piece of cardboard for me to shoot down.

But honestly, I think I dislike Soldier’s personality the most. He’s always saying nasty things to other characters that don’t come off as fatherly to me. They’re just dickish. No one asked you, Jack. Tracer and Mei can take care of themselves and what the hell did McCree ever do to you other than work for Gabe?

D.va (if she counts) ,by a longshot.

She doesn’t have any personality or character ,at all.

She’s just the stereotypical gamer and that’s all there is to it ,she barely has any backstory at all.

also I know this is off-topic but if I could remove all of her voice-lines from the game ,I would ,she sounds obnoxious and is easily the most annoying character in this game (Voice-wise).

Tracer for me. Her character and gameplay are both so annoying it’s crazy. Brigitte is a gift from the gods of OW!

Is it bad to say that there isn’t a single character in the roster so far I dislike in terms of personality? I think they’re all adorable in their own way. I even thought Orisa was precious before she got a puppy.

destroys her as pharah
I dont think so.

Dva.
She’s the personification of waifu bait.
She’s 19 but talks like she’s 10, she has the most annoying voice in video game history and her playstyle is incredibly obnoxious, constantly having a 20meters long projected barrier in your face half the game long. If she’s not projecting the barrier, she’ll force her huge giant mech in your face with it’s never ending shotgun canons that never reload. But what pro gamer ever has to reload? right?

Oh, what’s that? My mech is 0 hp?
Better press Q and get a new one. Oh! What? I killed 2 people in the process?
Caluclated! EL OH EL!

Junkrat. He’s nothing but a dumb Goblin stereotype with the most annoying voice/looks ever. I hate him with a passion.

For me it is Mei.
From the outside she is always shy, cute and cheerful.
But from the inside she is a demon that slowy freezes people and impale them with icicle.

To be fair, it’s easy to dislike omnics once you just view them as machines.

Especially Orisa who acts like a stupid baby AI. Nothing Orisa does or says makes me warm up to her at all.

Zenyatta is a cool concept (robot monk), but his voice lines aren’t particularly up my alley either. Admittedly, I am not one for “peace on earth” preachings, so that might have to add to that.

I personally am more on Torb’s and Zarya’s side regarding omnics. It’s cool that machines exist, but giving them rights and treating them as people? Never. Callme a racist/omnicist but never treat something you created as your equal, lest they someday enslave you instead.

Heck, if anything, one omnic crisis should have been enough to show humanity the dangers of equality between omnics and humans.
