this just doesn’t feel like a proper overwatch cinematic, like I always felt overwatch took its universe quite seriously, making fantasy science answers to their tech and always delving into the real world complications of having an “overwatch” agency, but this feels like it didn’t even try. It feels so childish, like, it’s space 101 - that you always tether yourself to the ship externally?? I get she’s a nervous wreck and clearly inexperienced but she doesn’t even talk to control or Athena with any sort of “official” sounding language? I’d have thought someone so nervous would be trying to use all of the lingo she’s been training with. It just makes this whole thing so much more unbelievable.

Almost every Animation that's not a CGI Short (Most origin stories, and now with OW2 all the Collab trailers as well) is animated by an outside studio. Not by Blizzard. Most studios operate the same way, often even using 2-3-4 different Animation vendors who all Animate in different styles. It's just because Blizz animates their own CGI Shorts that it makes people think they animate all of their promotional material in-house. Recently they've been having a London based Studio called The Line animate stuff for them (Cowboy Bebop, Transformers, Porsche, Venture Hero Trailer, etc) but this one seems to have a different style (3D + 2D) so they might have hired a different studio to make this 👍🏻.

Right it wasn’t a very convincing solution to the problem in terms of storytelling lol

[@balazsjanosdominko5603]

I can’t believe they didn’t give her some multi tool like a pick axe or smth, based on the amount of stuff in the spawn ships, it’s very much unprepared/ under equipped, even if it’s a simple travel ship

[@HirasSketches]

Dumbest overwatch character yet

she was controlled by my ranked teammates what did u expect

This is like the 5th animated panic attack I've seen and they're not getting any better.

I LOVE THE INTO THE SPIDERVERSE ANIMATION STYLE

[@jamesperrott1]

spiderverse did not invent this style lmao.

[@eslom.]

​@jamesperrott1 you know what they meant.

[@mikey2555]

This isnt ITSV style 🤨

[@johnnycripplestar5167]

Personally my eyes hurt from the FPS. Spider-verse executed it better.

[@aidenbrenneman2302]

You mean the animation is stylized. It looks nothing like spiderverse

[@dias2441]

0:50 AM I THE ONLY ONE HEARING STRANGER THINGS MUSIC?? WTF

ME TOO

KInda, but Stranger Things didn't invent synthwave music

[@VesperAegis]

She's so incredibly bubbly.

[@Caduceus444]

3:03 she entered the ship and took her helmet off before the airlock could even close... Or was there even an airlock? If you look at the shadows and the angle of the light, it does not look like artificial light, and even if it is, the light source must take the whole interior of the "airlock" area and be very weak. It looked pretty much like sunlight to me. How didn't all the air escape? How didn't the vacuum take hold of everything inside the ship? How didn't she drown? I've so many questions, though it's good to see some animatics again.

[@loveliedream]

i think space airlock door already closed, what we seeing is second interior door closing. I'm more surprised that her boot fixed itself by smacking it, dad did not said he will miss her, and her suit can only hold 1 min of air???

[@relaxindgnt]

Winston, we have a problem..

[@sdx3918]

An overwatch animated short? *It's been 3000 years...*

[@yomarcelojeje]

You get zero astronaut training when your mom is the mission director... Nice.

DEI hire XD

[@ShinyFood]

she's been in space for how long.. and acted like that..huuh okay

[@domtaylor1887]

Juno is the first Overwatch character in a while (since Kiriko) that I've been excited for. This short was awesome!

[@oliverstephens6191]

Isnt this a reskin of the mei story, oh wait it seems thats all blizzard knows how to do nowadays

[@BanhMi2002]

Lair. 4:06 Your name is Teo Minh.

[@gamabomb6340]

Great job ow team and everyone involved. I love when you guys release these crazy awesome trailers.

[@2kaadgaming]

2:04 Wait doesn't she have her jetpack thingy on her back this whole time?

[@lucyfer-pk9ey]

i am so happy that she had a cinematic ^^ wish venture had one too, and a skin too

[@smirkemoji1]

this cheaper cinematic quality is very telling of the budget moving forward lol. brutal AF. Revive HOTS

[@WoesalArmenta]

So glad to see another cinematic! I was almost disappointed with how yesterday's comic reading wasn't an animated short, but I'm glad we're getting something new in the ways of animation.

[@tangytablets5150]

The anxiety attack I would have if I barreled uncontrollably into the emptiness of space...

[@balenglish]

Short and sweet, but so good to see an Animation. Keep up the good work, team!

[@alosvods615]

Oh look a rock is stuck. I’m sure she’ll just lift it up and out of the way. *kicks the rock* *damages everything*. Are you serious? *Shoots it* “incredible job Juno!” THIS IS STUPID.

[@CoquiMuncher]

Juno's mom: I want you to live a long and happy life Me as sombra: You're not allowed to leave spawn, you are my hostage now.

[@WinterGoBrrr]

Words can not explain how happy I am that you guys didn't stop doing these for good. We need these for the characters to have the character that made us fall in love with the game in the first place.

[@cornalborian]

Wtf is this quality? This is not style... this is UNFINISHED

[@nattonep8788]

Even if they're cell shaded animations it's enough to get players hooked. Lore is what players want so hopefully Blizzard provides in some form.

[@EmpireOW]

Big day for the community! Really glad I held out hope for a cinematic, and I'm excited for the future!

[@chosen-wan2188]

This is way better than the Buzz Lightyear movie

We need 3D animation 😢 Like Dragons

[@sandcrakes]

I understand your need, but this is no longer that Blizzard, brother. It has long gone

[@LawysArt]

this IS 3D animation lol, just different art style

[@stan110]

​@@sandcrakes It does not mean they could not use the Pixar-style 3D animations. Since this sequels the comic they decided to replicate the comic's style.

[@theanalqueen]

@@sandcrakes This made me sad because you're so right 🥹 I started playing in 2017, and it just doesn't feel the same at ALL!

well, you can see the budget cuts and deduct where this will lead to...... (hello hearthstone cinematics)

Wym this sucked

[@theymi]

@@zacktwo9032false

[@floraazul7622]

​@@zacktwo9032 i thought it was decent! The enviorment looks great, but the 'rock stuck in ship' is a bit cliche for a story, and the face could use more angles/detail to match the enviorment, but the voice acting did great! Juno's mom losing her composure near the end really tugged on heart strings. Overall, sure it could be better (kinda looks fanmade?) But I am SO HAPPY to get cinematics!!!!!!!

[@MinecraftDood02]

@@zacktwo9032 "I can't believe they didn't make an origin story for Juno" Blizzard: makes two lore filled videos, one being a 3d animated You: "This sucks"

It’s just recycled Mei animatic but in space and dumber

[@technogame6064]

yeah finally long time waiting, overwatch cinematic again even though it doesn't full 3D like kiriko animated short...well nicely done.
