All of this โ€œVenture eats rocksโ€ discourse ignores the possibility that they pick their teeth with their drill and had a little accident, and I just wanted to point that out as a fellow shitposter and fan of the Overwatchian arts. (Do NOT add this to a wiki. I am JOKING.)

Iโ€™m considering the next step in my day, and the options are intriguing: * Apply for exciting story-driven game. * Start working on 1 of 2 novels again. * Scratch the dogโ€™s belly. * Sheโ€™s looking right at me. * Scratch it already.

@CrankyJ I dutifully recorded a TERRIBLE impression of Roadhog's line above, and sent it. I can only assume the example helped, because that line went to session and Josh worked his magic. That is the end of the story. The file is still on my computer somewhere. Biding its time.

LIFEWEAVER FACT One thing I want to share is that when we develop new hero, we usually have a place holder icon for them in the game, and a placeholder icon for Lineweaver used to be just medic Baptiste skin, so I replace it with this goofy doodle I drew for his sit emote... ๐Ÿคฃ

Every hero is a challenge to write in different ways. Roadhog specifically requires you to say a LOT with very few words, knowing that @CrankyJ is going to kill it in the booth, like he always does.

As you know, Iโ€™m very careful about answering Overwatch lore questions. A lot of the time, the answer is โ€œThis is less mysterious than you think, and I absolutely cannot tell you why yet.โ€

@ClearTogether This was great feedback. Also, we decided early on in the map story development that Overwatch's NY offers free, safe housing for people. Some of this is in the map VO, with further details planned for later. "How we hope the world will be" is a big part of our story dev.

โ€œGavin, how often do you almost retweet an Overwatch joke because it made you laugh but then you wonder if people will think itโ€™s canon if you do.โ€ Always. 7 times a minute. 24 hours a day.
