Hanzo has multiple skins in the game that feature killed dog related animals/canines, such as a wolf, or a coyote, and/or etc. His skin is optional and it’s not even the default one. You may not see it in a lot of games/matches, but in others you might. It’s really frustrating.
there are heroes which can work as sniper classes and at least one dedicated sniper class also other stealth based classes in the game the point of which being to not be noticed
A couple of halloween skins give characters snakes for hair, but it's not very noticable in-game. The Widowmaker one hisses constantly if you have it equipped
It doesn’t even seem like most people notice the blood effect but in size it can get excessive during its split second of being onscreen. Everything slows down when there’s a victory/defeat and it’s on display for longer as a result but no gore whatsoever.
When a character’s health is low, a heartbeat sound effect starts and the sound from the game becomes muffled, sometimes accompanied by a loud gasp for breath from that character
It is possible on every map to fall or be thrown over an edge, and die if not able to come back on firm ground. However, in most modes, you revive after a few seconds.
Although there is no scene in the game, sigma has an “asylum” skin and i believe it is referenced in his origin video that isn’t in the actual gameplay.
Not electrotherapy, but the character Winston has a tesla canon that shoots out lightning, and characters on the receiving end can be heard making struggling noises while they're being electrocuted, however nothing is graphic.
I was repeatedly called autistic as an insult one time (I am) and it got bad enough that I had to throw the game for the sake of my mental health, I’m hoping this is a rare occurrence but be wary.
i personally think that yeah with how some of the characters are written it can be kinda bad, lucio is very stereotypical, Junkrat and Roadhog are both the "violent and chaotic mentally ill person" trope while also being played for laughs to name a couple and that's not even mentioning the shit with the weird stuff abt the asian characters, also the 1 irish characters different custom skins (outfits) r all named after alcoholism, as a minority myself Overwatch is basically "minority misrepresentation: the game" imo don't know why people keep saying it's not tbh
There aren't nuclear explosions in the game, but in the lore of the game, Australia was partially destroyed by a nuclear explosions, and two characters, Junkrat and Roadhog, are implied to have been affected by the residual radiation.
