I bring the truth, and the truth is that Overwatch only got so popular because of porn.
WAIT, HEAR ME OUT, I CAN EXPLAIN.

The year is 2016. TF2 is basically dead because Valve doesn't care. Very few major games being released. All shooters are just a bunch of ugly men running around killing each other.
Blizzard was basically a deity in the games industry, known as "everything they touch turns to gold". Suddenly they released a hero shooter with cute girls and polished mechanics. That was the start of the Overwatch vs Paladins playground fight, and I've never heard the word "polished" so much in my life.
Anyway, Tracer was the poster girl for the game along with Widowmaker. Now here's where my theory takes form. A diverse cast attracts that community and that community loves shipping. Two hot girls are perfect for shipping, especially if they hate each other (because there's nothing more romantic that hatred). The amount of buzz these people made with Tracer and Widowmaker attracted a lot of attention and people started to realize how tight Tracer's outfit is and how fucking massive was Widowmaker's butt. Today's main girls are Mercy and Dva but in 2016 I think we can all agree on who the two main girls were. But there was a problem though. Blizzard didn't want Overwatch porn. They started taking down Pornhub videos, and that makes for a delicious headline/video title. The clickbait started and videos with millions of views popped up on everyone's recommended, creating a bigger media coverage than actual Overwatch marketing.
I'm not saying that Overwatch is full of horny people fapping to 3D porn, but the porn opened our eyes for how unique and cute the characters were. The game was also full of color and personality, attracting not only the hardcore shooter fan but also the casuals. It would still be a successful game without the porn, it's a Blizzard game after all, but not this massive phenomenon.

It could be argued that Overwatch is good because it's from Blizzard but come on. Blizzard is just like Bethesda. They made some good games at the right time but mismanagement always crippled those games. Look at WoW for example. They had to make the game basically free to play. Starcraft? Korea Korea Korea Korea. Diablo? Just look at the latest announcement. Heroes of the Storm? Blizzard is literally taking devs away from the game to cut costs and they even cancelled the next eSports event, making dozens of people unemployed right before Christmas. Blizzard was never this fucking deity we made them out to be, their games were never balanced, they were always slow to put out new content, they always ignored feedback. All the porn made we ignore how Blizzard was pushing eSports down our throats while bad decisions crippled the game and they refused to show us the active players count. There was even a famous post on Reddit talking about how Overwatch porn was the only thing that kept them hooked on the game.
I mean let us not for get the pandering gay and safe space around the game. From what I went and saw the official forums on the Battle.net moderated by an actual employee that works at Blizz has an LGBT megathread where 12 to 20 something year olds fantasized about shipping and whatever character likes plowing the same gender. It's a useless thread even more useless than "X IS OVERPOWERED!!" threads that pop up because some asshole had a terrible couple of matches and feels they need to tell the world about it. Blizzard is just another company people treat like darlings but just like Epic they know how ot play with the minds of the less critical thinking in order to garner as much money as possible. They play with the "kind of smart but not really" type of person as mouthbreathers will buy anything so fucking with them is boring but Blizzard knows this. Remember the scandal crap with that fake girl who climbed through the ranks quickly and people got suspicious and it called out the clear descepancy on how Blizzard loves inclusion over efficiency as this fake person needed very little credientials to slide into posistions that others worked for years to and never achieved (This fake gamer girl to my knowledge almost if did get a spot on a well known esports team before it was outed that it was an experiment with a guy and a girl involved).

What Blizz did is throw a curveball and try to convince and distract people by saying their blandest character had a gay relationship in HOPES of mouthbreathers getting up and arms and playing right into the hands of their hardcore defenders who either don't even play the game but sure are there with their trumpets to thank Blizz for including another gay character.

But to what we were actually talking about (It's so much fun shit talk things which is why I do it so often with my friends XD) you saw this kind of thing with people who play the game. Waifufags is the derogatory term for people who probably have little experience or even care for the actual product but brought up because they love the fine 25 year old girl with the thick british accent or the no personality blue sniper chick that fits every mark of their femdom fetish or the thick little chinese lady they were convinced is "fat" by some random asshole on a forum.

There's this lovely thread on with leeteRR basically tearing ArhoAngel apart. That's why leeteRR is one of my favorite SFM artists. As he said, SFM is limiting but you can do some impressive shit if you put in enough effort. The pose that leeteRR is referring to is , where Mei has tragically dislocated her entire lower body.
The only Blender artist I know that deserves a lot of credit is FPSBlyck (even though he pulled the same "dOnT pOsT mY cOnTeNt" shit, because at least he kept posting himself). His stuff is really good, his models/textures are on point, and he doesn't just keep milking Overwatch like a dead cow.
I know it's funny how I talk shit about ArhoAngel but am still visiting this thread, but let me put it this way: I don't like most of his stuff but there's some decent material that he sometimes puts out, and I'm just happy that I don't have to pay for it anymore.
leeteRR sounds like a complete asshole, looked through his stuff which is mediocre in comparison.

He is an asshole because he thinks he started the Overwatch porn craze and thinks people owe him that accolade. It's what really soured me personally to Blender because you can fool anybody if you dolly the system up and distract people with bloom and pretty visuals. Thing is the visuals are what he has as the stuff he does is at best run of the mill. Every girl despite how they are in other programs or even in game have the same exact body type and even for vanilla porn standards it's so average it's almost like its value is cheaper than clear value.
