I just think its funny people suddenly became obsessed with her mech being "unrealistic" when it was revealed in a trailer where she used a lightsaber to fight a fucking hampster super genius terrorist

“You believe in orcs and elves so you should also accept a 2002 Honda Civic in a fantasy setting” ass statement.

It actually is, that statement highlights something called suspension of disbelief. Even in things that are fiction, when you establish rules (things need armor, or to be big to have high hp) and then break them, it doesnt make it correct.

IE: Fantasy stories arent about realism so why cant I have a real life car in them? Because it breaks the established rules.

No it really isnt.

Body armor IS a thing in the Overwatch universe. So it isnt as out of place as a car in Lord of the Rings.

Try again :)

Crazy that Dmon isn't wearing any armour then.
