She left the dead bodies in the base and told nobody? She is the devil.

Cool short. A-mei-zing, even. I'm always looking forward to the next one.
The thing that's continually impressed me with these shorts is how Blizzard manages to pack a nice little feel arc in each of them (except maybe the Soldier one), which is doubly impressive considering their runtime. Also love how they build the lore with each one.
Good job, Blizz.

Still dont think Blizz holds a candle to Valve in terms of making memorable comedy gold that people will quote for years to come.
Like the Junkrat short that promotes the new map is the closest they got to replicating one of the "Meet The" videos in quality. They have all these amazing characters in OW and yet they do the most boring shit with them like in the Hanzo+Genji short.

Ballsy to make such a long short with so much talking. That said, effort doesn't make characters talking exposition to themselves good form, but they made the most of it.

She's a gamer. Blizzard will have her short be about her dealing with abuse.
"The destruction caused by the omnics here... It reminds me of home."
I hope Zarya is next
She's def curvy.

Not saying it doesn't exist, but remind me about one, or two.

Or PTSD from the war.
The opposite, some thought Mei was really thin but somehow has incredibly large breasts and hips.
This little convo gets me everytime.

Saw Mei -> closed tab
Conscripted into a war as a teenager because her home was being devastated by the Omnics is kinda fucked.

Def not. Glad they decided to finally just confirm it here with the pajama outfit.

Mei was talking to snowball most of the time, no?

Probably just went to another station.
Damn Blizzard CG is still top notch. I know losers have a knee jerk reaction to Bolt when they see Mei, but I think it was really cute to show how she got Tangled up in this situation. Was really neat to see her create those Frozen platforms with her ice gun too. Haters should just Let It Go.

I love Pokken!
Wasted animation budget on Mei

That is why she became a pop star. To drown out the noise of her fellow comrades crying from pain. Dam......................
"It costs 200,000 dollars to fire this weapon, for 12 seconds"
"This, is a bucket"
"Dear god"
"Theres more"
"NO"
"Kill me"
"Later"
Thats just a small sample of quotable stuff i still see to this day among TF2 players old and new. And thats from the shorts, not even mentioning the comics or in-game stuff.
OW tries to make its characters fun too with the unique voicelines in-game but the outside media never reflects that.

That's what I mean with making the most out of it. Disguising it as something else helps.
I know plenty of people that would call her fat. (Not me though. <3)

That was a really big deal made about her companion running out of batteries on an extremely temporary basis that in no way caused lasting harm. Like man, that should have been the first thing she thought of. The solar panel then being able to charge the thing kinda throws the entire energy crisis presented in the short into question as well. She could have left the whole time, but I guess she had to gather up the courage to leave and that was the point of the whole tower thing, rather than calling for help as mentioned earlier?
Felt kinda sloppily planned and written honestly. At least the melodrama was actually called for when she found out her compatriots were dead, and Mei being a real cutey as always helps to salvage things.

How would she know it was still around 9 years later? And if it was why didn't they check in on Mei's station?

I always forget these don't use the in-game models, so it caught me off-guard at first. I really enjoyed it. Pleasantly surprised that Mei got the next short.
