I can’t wait for you to check out the overwatch dragons cinematic. The best video with two of the best characters.
I just love Sombra, she's so cool
Ashe and Jessie McCree
Dragons Hanzo and Genji
but really I like them all
My favorite part of this cinematic is how nonchalantly Reinhardt says their salute the first time "Live with honor, die with glory". But they repeat it again later when they say goodbye and you can see by the look in his eyes that this is the first time he actually understands what that means.
The reiteration of Baldric's "I have been called. I must answer." from the beginning to old Reinhardt's "I have been called. I must answer....always." ALWAYS hits me in the feels. You feel the weight he has carried since that day in the last "always". Darin is so great aa boisterous Reinhardt, but the gravitas of that last line is so solemn and meaningful.
Harry Potter fans nodding in agreement.
If my memory of the lore is serving me: it's said that A Crusader's Armor is also their Tomb, Balderich's armor in that throne isn't a monument, its actually him, still there, dead in the suit.
correct, it's kinda fucked up
This has to be one of my favorite Blizzard animations of all time, absolutely beautiful
What i like most about this cinematic is that it shows exactly how it feels to play Reinhardt in the game: its so easy to sprint forward and kill half of the other team, but, while you do your entire team is strugling if not dead.
At the same time sitting in front, shielding people while you know you can kill that guy shooting at you requires alot of discipline because its 10x more boring.
So yea you can have more fun by making your teams life miserable, or you can be the good guy and do your job protecting them.
It's more nuanced than that, you have to have map awareness and know where the enemy is, where your team is, and be able to recognize those openings where you CAN charge in and get a pick, or accurately judging when to drop shield and fire strike an enemy behind cover just as they come out (I've done that more than once, so satisfying lol). If their main support is out of position and you can charge them into a wall and finish off with a fire strike/hammer hit, that's when you start calling for an all-in. I've done that more than once too lol
@@lordmortarius538 yea im oversimplifying for who dont play the game, thats said still there are people who only play ofensive or misdjudge the situation.🤣
Yeah and I think this cinematic made me want to do the latter back in the day.
Reinhardt players have long been known to jump off on their own and try to solo the other team. It's a meme by now. But for a few days after this cinematic came out, most games I got into that had a Reinhardt, he stuck with the team and used his shield more. The meme eventually came back but it was a little tamer.
Excited for you to watch the "The Last Bastion" cinematic. Masterpiece in visual storytelling considering there's no dialogue.
This was an amazing animation. It was done right around the time that Blizzard really started pulling on our emotions with cinematics such as this and "Rise and Shine".
Last Bastion as well
That Castle belongs to Balderich (the man who dies) and he dies protecting his HOME. When a Crusader dies in their armor, they stay in that armor as their tomb.
The girl's name is Brigitte Lindholm, daughter of Rein's best friend Torbjörn Lindholm (swedish engineer) and she's Rein's squire, although she's a healer because she needs to keep our beloved idiot Rein alive despite his shenanigans. Torbjörn and Rein were in Overwatch together.
Yes, yes it is Darin de Paul. He also voices N'Zoth in WoW, one of the Old Gods. I adore his voice acting for Reinhardt. He has such a boisterous charm. 💗
I like that OW is all about the call to action, Balderich says “our legacies are our deeds”; in the Dragons cinematic, Genji says “honor resides in one’s actions”.
One of my favorite examples of that crowning glory battle is from the book Alan Quatermain, by H. Rider Haggard. An old warrior defending the palace gate while the main battle rages elsewhere. I even incorporated that into the epilogue for one of my D&D characters, years after the grand quest that he was part of. That whole sense of "I may be old and nowhere near my prime, but I will still fight to my last breath to protect what matters." With my character, he even buried his sword in the stone of the stairs he was defending, and that then became a monument of its own.
Also, interestingly, some of the Omnics that they are fighting are Bastion model Omnics - the same kind that we see in The Last Bastion cinematic.
In any event, you've got to watch the Overwatch 2 animated short Kiriko. My favorite Overwatch video hands down!
Fallen Crusaders are left where they die, their armour shall be their tomb.
not only you can play these maps in the actual game, but every bullet marks and destroyed parts from the animation are also present the map too.
LIVE WITH HONOR!! DIE WITH GLORY! I did not expect to see this being reacted to.
HOW DID I MISS THE STREAM D:
Rein was always my main. This cinematic is one of the greatest Overwatch storytelling moments. Dragons and Zero Hour are close though. With Rise and Shine getting an honourable mention.
I've cried to this shit...
While I was watching it I was writing the similarity towards that scene with Boromir when he takes the hit and spins and you see him looking at Merry and Pippin and see the resolve strengthen. Its a good scene. And then the next thing you said XD
Love your videos, watched all the LoL and Warcraft ones. Just holding my breath waiting for the notification that you've done the ESO ones.
Iirc Brigitte is the adopted daughter of the little dwarf dude with the lava cannon that's also Reinhardt's buddy.
It was fitting that he lost an eye as a result of his own pride. He was literally blinded by pride.
Another great one is the Overwatch cinematic "Alive".
So in Overwatch lore (which I recommend you watch these in order so that it makes more sense), 28 years prior to these events the Omnic Crisis occurred, a world war where the omnics (sentient AI robots) rebelled against their human creators and began a wholesale slaughter from omniums (factories that make omnics) around the world. National forces like enhanced soldiers from the US and the Crusaders of Germany in this vid were being overrun, when the UN decided to form an elite strikeforce called Overwatch to wage asymmetrical warfare against the omnics, rather than fighting them on their terms. That is the emblem Balderich von Adler is holding, as he was called to serve, and then passed his obligation on to Reinhardt Wilhelm as he died.
After the omnics were defeated, Overwatch was utilized to maintain world peace by taking out dangerous factions and leaders before they could become a threat, and another team, a covert ops branch called Blackwatch was created to perform more.... nefarious duties. Blackwatch fucked up a mission and it came to the public's attention, creating distrust and calls for regulation, forcing the UN to begin investigating their activities. The leaders of Overwatch and Blackwatch, former comrades, later got into a very heated argument at headquarters, ending in an explosion that presumably left both of them dead. Not long after, the UN signed the Petras Act, which banned all future Overwatch activity, forcing the organization to disband, and it's former members to work as mercenaries or other occupations.
The short "Recall" is a great place to start, as it ties into the reasons for the others to appear in their own short vids.
love this one a lot and i have never played that game mainly cause it looks more like a battle royal that has a bit of a story which i don't care for i like games that have much more story so yeah but still looks awesome
As a player, before this cinematic came out, you just know he constantly says "i am your shield" when you play as him. As young reinhardt in this clip, he doesn't even use his shield until after his friend died. Ugh, so sad. I also got to see this map change when this cinematic came out. it was clean before and then after the cinematic, all the rubble was left behind in game
I'm an Overwatch fan and I wish Blizzard would show us more about the lore and world. There is so much world-building and detail We get these tiny little glimpses and it's not enough.
So, the young woman by Reinhardt at the beginning and the end is not Reinhardt's daughter but both his sort of apprentice/learner/mentee, his personal engineer (for his crusader suit of armor) and the daughter of his best friend for life Torbjörn. They're not really blood related but calling her his niece would not be inaccurate. She's found family rather than blood family.
What's also sad is despite Baldrich's sacrifice and the airstrikes help the Crusaders would go on to lose Eichenwalde to the Omnics, with the female Crusader also dying in the battle as well.
Honestly I swear to god that Blizzard should make films...their story telling, the artworks the MUSIC is all banging 🥰
he also says 'crusaders are IMMORTAL defenders of Germany' He thinks there is no way they can die, he gets a huge wake up call after seeing his best friend die
If they are luck a Crusader's armor will be their crypt.
Greetings. I stumbled over your reactions via my Warcraft Algorithm and really liked your videos.
Pretty sure your stream recommended them already but I think the Witcher 3 Trailers could make a good fit for your content. Keep it up 🙂
Watching this again makes even sadder because Overwatch was my favorite franchise from Blizzard and they managed to destroyed it.
You have to do Diablo cinematics now! They have crazy visuals too! Esp the Diablo 4 reveal trailer
I absolutely love the Overwatch cinematics, too bad Blizzard has forever lost me as their customer
gut wounds take quite some time to kill, so it´s realistic for him to continue fighting.
So for Overwatch cinematics Blizzard likes to throw in little easter eggs as nods to the fan base. The big one here is Reinhardt charging in saying his team is only slowing him down. That's a reference to in game where Rein players charge in without his team and then his team gets picked off lol
“Always”
You gotta do "Bastion" please
For honor is ridiculously good
The girl is not his daughter. He is however her Godfather.
Backstory:
After the battle (from the flashback), Reinhart joined Overwatch instead of his mentor, but learned teamwork and selflessness.
One day, he saved the life of one of his team mates (Tobjorn). As a thank you, he honored Reinhart as the Godfather of his future daughter (Brigitte from the cinematic).
Gah, this one gets me every time
"the armor is so warcraft" xd , the armor is made using the model of the CMC-300 power armor of the StarCraft marines, and i think using as a base the tychus armor, which is the one you saw the most in the cinematics of sc2, why not check those cinematics too ? you are going to love them
This is very Gundam for me :)
This is another gem from the Blizzard cinematic team. I can relate as a Soldier that we all have that moment when the important meaning behind what we do as protectors comes into focus.
You can see that difference when Reinhardt recites the motto in the beginning versus the end. The cost of glory and valor always weigh heavy on us and it’s something we carry forward.
Live with Honor, Die with Glory!
blizzard has great animations. You must react to all of the overwatch ones!
a crusader's armor is his tomb ;(
Overwatch lore screams for a 10 episode Prime or HBO series.
why are you watching them out of order?
I’m upset you didn’t have a friend to actually walk you through these cinematics in their actual Lore direction.
You’re missing a bunch to get the actual story - which is very VERY important.
False advertisement, this isn’t your first time reaction.
