Why was Roadhog's Voiceline changed? 🐸

"You’re a talker. I don’t like talkers…" was changed to "I’m beached as, bro."

The Same for Brig’s ā€œTake a Hikeā€ voiceline where it was changed to ā€œGet out of here.ā€

What is this nonsense?

Because it was basically The same as other voice lines

What does that even mean?

I saw a thread complaining about ā€œrecycled voicelinesā€ earlier so I guess blizzard listened to them xD

I don’t want to see them post that Blizzard ignores us though

Brig;s sounded the very same as the other so course understandable that was changed.

Having looked it up, apparently it’s a memified quote from a cartoon in New Zealand around a decade ago.

ā€œasā€ in this context is the Australian equivalent of the American ā€œafā€

ā€œThat 5 man blade was clutch afā€ is the same as ā€œThat 5 man blade was clutch as m8ā€

It’s a masked and inappropriate language and is in violation of Forum CoC.

Fortunately for Roadhog, he does not post here.

His voice line is taken from Hound in got and it sounded amazing. Show me other Hound quotes by roadhod if you say that this one was the same as others.

That’s the PG-13 way of saying things tbh, that’s like that one South Park game that changed its name to But Whole for the actual other word that sounds like it.

He already has ā€œI don’t like talkersā€ which is weird to have 2 of sorta the same voiceline. Rather than change the one that’s been around forever they changed the new one apparently.

Ah, then that was more for brig’s then hog’s

I was thinking the exact same thing.
Maybe they could have changed it to ā€œI think I’ll have two chickens.ā€

I wonder what Brigitte’s says now?

Means to be screwed, originates from a YouTube video parodying the kiwi accent. Made by a pair of [Australians], the video shows a cartoon whale ā€˜beached’. He says to a passing bird ā€˜Oh no man, I’m beached as!’
