Moira truly has the best dialogue. Her VA really nailed her. Even as they occasionally added more dialogue/interactions into the game in OW1, hers just got better and better. I mean, most of the heroes received new dialogues in game periodically and they were all good; they were entertaining and funny... But Moira's were next level. They were authentic and true to her personality and while being entertaining, they really helped you understand her character and personality. Moira's not a disloyal character despite having left Overwatch to join Talon. She was never loyal to Overwatch, nor is she to Talon and she doesn't try to hide that. Overwatch and its senior members like Mercy criticized, hindered, and sometimes outright interfered with her experiments and methods. Moira is a firm believer that the ends justify the means and that sacrifices are sometimes necessary to gain knowledge, improve medicine and humanity, and achieve greatness. She didn't care whom she was working for or what their motives were, she simply wanted them to enable her research. Overwatch morally objected to her frequently whereas Talon gave her free reign entirely. She's not disloyal, but her only true loyalty is to science. She's also not evil, despite being a "villain." She isn't sadistic; she doesn't like inflicting pain. She only does it when she believes it's necessary for her research but she won't shy away from it. She lacks empathy and she can be quite callous in her experiments, but she is doing it with a greater purpose in mind and to be fair... she is successful in her field and there's not much wasted effort on her part as she does get the results she's after. She's never mean, and doesn't really ever aggressively antagonize anyone. Even things she says like to Widow/Reaper that seem insensitive, she just lacks the empathy to be self-aware of her statements and questions. She's often passive aggressive and feeds us those snarky clapbacks. And although she affirms that her desired place is in a research lab and not in the frontlines engaging in combat, she's no craven. She put Reinhardt in his place in game. Even when she says something mildly sinister, threatening, or dark, she still conveys her passion and fascination with science. Even her rhetoric is above and beyond for a fps character that has no story mode (yet). She speaks like a Disney villain. It's poetically dark and romantic in word choice. Her tone is usually very sultry yet still very breathy and light, lower in volume and without much force, instead putting the effort and power into her pronunciation and melodic way of speaking. You can tell when she's annoyed when she flips into the more brash tone like "I'm working/Brilliant," with a light vocal fry. It completely encapsulates her energy. That she doesn't need to be assertive, aggressive, or overly expressive like most heroes to convey her intentions. Ex. Moira vs Reinhardt dialogue: Reinhardt conveys his feelings and resentment. His energy and volume increase and is very direct in his message and issues a direct threat. You can hear his feelings, they are made obvious regardless of his dialogue. Moira though, her tone would suggest a pleasant or lighthearted conversation yet she still commands the respect here and comes out the victor. The power of her unconcerned tone, and the eloquent word choice she uses to issue an even more terrifying threat indirectly through cryptic hypotheticals.

It actually is a bit hilarious to think that outside of combat he just wonders around spouting random nonsense to anyone who will listen.

[@drunkenqueen3077]

@@Dr._Elysium295 It happened the same in Reaper's short story. Sombra and Reaper were on edge and started blasting at each other in Sigma's cell. Sigma reacted like "meh", "boring..." and continued minding his own business.

Moira: "I assure you we are nothing alike." Baptiste: Watchu mean by that?!

[@cee_ves]

My god moira terrifies everyone. Sombra stays away from her, she won’t let her near sigma either. Widow seems very eager to confirm to her she’s not thinking anything dangerous, almost as if she’s afraid she might have to be ‘fixed’ Also she really is just a dick to everyone isn’t she

The fact we had a dialogue interaction between four characters at once is beautiful! Great lines, all of them! Thanks for the vid!

[@maxducks2001]

I REALLY hope they dig into the characters in the story mode next year, especially Moira. She’s probably the most evil character of the cast, showing no regrets for anything she’s done. Even someone like Widowmaker fears her because of how she removed her emotions. You can hear it in her voice when Moira asks her if she’s pondering something risky after being distant, uncharacteristic of her mental reprogramming. Reaper doesn’t give enough of a damn to truly confront Moira about his cellular makeup causing him physical pain, but it’d be great to see that fleshed out. Her role in the cast is a fascinating one, and I hope we get to see her interactions explored more deeply.

Moira calling junkrat little even though he’s one of the tallest characters

[@riatorex8722]

He stoops, though. And if you haven't noticed, Moira is actually one of the tallest female characters. She's the same height as the absolute UNIT that is Zarya. It says a lot when someone who's supposed to have spent most of her life in a lab is somehow as tall as I don't know, a weightlifting champion?
