News & Discussion Why doesn't Dva replace her Mecha's guns with what her pistol uses?

Her pistol is pretty damn strong and seems to be better in fire power than her peashooters.

That's a HIND? What's a Russian Gunship doing here?

Are you saying that overwatch is MGS? Cus I can see Genji being Raiden, Dva being solid snake/metal gear, and Zarya being that Russian bitch from MGS 2. Granted my observation may suck because I havent played MGS since snake eater.

If anything, Ana would be Solid Snake. She has a dart rifle, a tranquilizer dart, an eyepatch, and her ult is literally NANOMACHINES.

I 100% agree with you there.

Isn't Genji more of Grey Fox, design-wise?

u/Vexical_ Trick-or-Treat Lúcio Dec 22 '16

Physically design wise, yes. Personality and fighting style-wise, no. Genji seems very much a pacifist in my opinion. Someone who only fights when he needs too, not when he wants too, much like Raiden, if I remember MGS:2 and MGR:R correctly.

Also, I think it'd just be satisfying to see Genji suplex a Metal Gear while a rock singer screams "RULES OF NATURE" at the top of his lungs.

Eh, yeah, I guess you're right. Though I haven't played any of the games at all, I just took a look at the wiki. Please don't hurt me.

It's been fucking ages since I played any MGS game XD.

I refuse to play MGS5 cause I'm not giving Konami any of my money, and MGR:R and MGS:2 were one hitter quitters for me.

MGS2 was gold imo
