Why does widowmaker's Cote D'azure skirt defy gravity?

In her new surveillance victory pose, her skirt is completely sticking up. Unless her skirt is made of something rigid, which doesn’t appear to be the case when she’s moving in game or in hero gallery, something is wrong. Her skirt should fall when she’s upside-down. Please fix.

Seriously? I might need to buy that one on one of my alts. It sounds hilarious.

Remember the old Over the shoulder pose for tracer? Probably for the same reason.

i’m pretty sure her skirt hanging upside down to her torso would look a lot more dopey.

This is the issue with marketing games for teens.

the towel in her bikini skin does the same thing, and is equally as funny.

Because our innocent kids can’t know what gravity is.

Why would they make the towel defy gravity but not her hair(part of it)?

actually widow was never meant to have animated clothes on her…the rig just lack of the animation bones.
those not animated part like the skirt and towel just stay at their default position.
it is not censoring but yea it is convenient so they will not fix it.
gravity isnt a thing in video games.
it is just another animation.

How many people will this have prompted to open up OW immediately and try this out.

Be…cause her stuff would be out?

well i dont think Blizzard wants to lose its M rating and go into MA+ (Ratings may vary depending on the country you live in.) its kinda hard to sell games with MA+ or R ratings.

Why you trying to look anyway?:joy:

Hey, the only person in the thread who figured out the actual reason it works like this.

Also I don’t think that skirt actually has gravity physics to begin with.

You can see up the skirt during certain emotes and during the highlight intro where she steps on the camera. It has nothing to do with trying to maintain a T rating (bikinis aren’t M-rated material guys) or pandering to SJWs or whatever.

Let’s be honest, any person that’s into women would wanna look.

Made on purpose, so that you can go to forum and ask something stoopid.

In theory it was more due to tracers personality…
(i believe it was)

Widow would even fit that style. (would only affect hungry ppl in the hero galery, the only place you can turn a victory pose)

But as already said, it could affect the age restriction. :sweat_smile: Would be to big of a deal

I’m into women, but what you want is pretty creepy. Trust me when I say women don’t normally parade around in their underwear.
