Chris can you react on Titanfall 2 cinematics?
Titanfall 2: Become One
Titanfall 2: Single Player Cinematic Trailer
Just commenting again to make sure you see it(sorry)
There hasn't been any news about Overwatch 2 BUT the next Blizzard convention called BlizzConline will be February 19-20th and they ALWAYS bring a new Overwatch cinematic at Blizzcon so watch out for it.
"Overwatch is kind of a happy-go-lucky kind of game"
Dragons: Hanzo thought he killed his brother but he actually just disfigured him so badly he had to agree to become a cybernetic assassin just to be able to walk again.
Infiltration: Sombra threatens a child to blackmail the head of a foreign country into being her "friend"
Last Bastion: An Omnic who was built specifically to be a weapon deals with the PTSD from surviving a war.
Shooting Star: A teenage girl feels like she has to constantly be ready for combat because the lives of millions of people are on her shoulders
Honor and Glory: Retired soldier feels like he has to answer the call to action as he remembers the sacrifice of his mentor to save his life
Reunion: Cowboy Cosplay Biker Gang in California (Not traumatic, I just like bring that up. Its such a strange choice.)
Gameplay: Teams of six violently murder each other with future tech
Me: "Yeah...."
You didn't even mention Alive, which is one of the darkest cinematics.
Sombra didn’t threaten a child wtf lol
@@thatastastan Not directly, but a threat could be implied when she handed the Defense Minister lady the picture of her daughter (?). Even if there wasn't a spoken threat of harm to the little girl, Sombra was totally using the child as a way to manipulate her mark into doing what she wanted. Perhaps in a sort of "What would your girl think of Mommy if her country branded her a traitor?" It's pretty low, even if it's not a direct threat.
@@Railstar1976 Thing is, we don’t know if the child was her daughter or Katya Volskaya when she was younger, but you do have a point.
@@thatastastan We do know it's Katya's daughter.
tyrannozaurus.tumblr.com/post/152745928831/sure-the-boop-thing-is-cute-but-look-at-this
Sombra doesn't threaten Katya's daughter directly, but the most charitable implication is that she is reminding Katya how it would affect her daughter if her mother was branded a traitor by Russia/russians even without Sombra lifting a finger against them beyond releasing the information.

This mans is so wholesome, he low-key makes me so happy by doing nothing-
The straightest of facts, I aspire to be this man
Wholesome and handsome
@@yassinecisse7096 Yeaaaaah. Let's not pretend, he wouldn't be where he is now without the looks. World do be like that.
High key***
Mei is Chinese (specifically from Xi'An, China) and when she exits cryostasis she says "怎么这么冷啊," which means "how is it this cold?"
it's 怎么这么冷啊，but anyway, thank you for clearing up for other people
@@davidzhu4301 You're right! I edited the comment to fix it.
I always wondered what part of China she’s from . Thanks for clearing that up for me
Thank you
Also important is that her accent is more or less the voice actor's natural accent rather then a faked accent as her voice actor is from China.
Anyone notice how the "Blizzard presents" logo is brought in... by a blizzard?
BIG IF TRUE
Yeah, puns 😆
Since overwatch disbanded, there was no one to take the eco-point crew out of their cryo sleep, but when winston sent his emergency broadcast it jump started the system which is the only reason Mei's sleep was stopped
And yes, Meis green Overwatch patch is Overwatch's Ecopoint science division. They were sent a lot of places to figure out what was happening to the atmosphere (eg global warming like thing), including Antarctica.
*sees it's the mei trailer*
"oh, so we're crying today, is that what we're doing?"
got me the first time i watched it, got me again :'(
*ACHOO* "Oh, wHaT iS tHiS?" *looks: what else could it be: SPONSOR!*
And just in case... Mei's accent is chinese. Her voice actress, Zhang Yu, is actually Chinese.
As someone said, you should watch first "The Story So Far" (it's just 2 minutes) and then "Zero Hour" is like Blizzard show it in the Blizzcon.
Mei’s story is definitely one of the saddest. I knew going into it that she’d be the only survivor, but it’s still so sad when she realizes the pods malfunctioned :(
After Zero Hour there is still the classical Overwatch 1 Trailer and also "The Plan" which was actually recommended in the top right here: 12:36
I'm not sure how to classify The Plan as it does not seem to be an actual "cinematic" because it uses in-game graphics, but still, it's a fun short original vid worth watching.
There are also all of the Origin Stories, since they are rather short, lasting 1-2 minutes, it's a good idea to watch multiple in one sitting, there are 14 of them in total, but if you want to just pick out the best ones and leave out the others, my recommendation is to watch Sigma's and Doomfist's stories, Sombra's is good too, and Soldier 76 has the most lore in it.
Bump this. Would highly recommend watching the origin shorts (since you seem to be at least a little interested in the history and lore). Furthermore, there are a couple other videos to watch that were released with the events. Most notably is the Retribution video, which details the event that caused the downfall of overwatch (and has genji in it from Dragons so there’s that to look forward to).
Yeah but "hey im gay now" after a whole year or two, is not lore. It's pandering.
@@Flandre-Scarlet i get your point but its not like the characters were characters for the first year though
we knew a total of fuck and all about the majority of them (hell i don't think me even know much about the fucking hamster as it is)
@@Flandre-Scarlet Just because the other person in a relationship that the character used to be in wasn't the opposite sex doesn't make it pandering.
ETA: Overwatch has very minimal lore as it is and lbr if Blizzard decided to put "he's gay btw" into Soldier's first cinematic people would say Blizzard was shoving it down their throats. So how are creators supposed to make you (general you) happy, exactly?
The green part in the logo is because she's part of the "Scientist team" of Overwatch, Ecopoint, as you saw a few times in the video.
They were a team dedicated to studying the weather and such. Because they're not part of the "Combat team", but more focused on the environment, they got a green logo.
It's mostly to just differentiate the groups within Overwatch.
The big issue with this cinematic is that after seeing her backstory like this, her gameplay makes her look like a psychopath.
Her closest friends died frozen in cryo chambers, she had to work all alone for a time with only a glorified tamagochi as company. She is years out of her time and the world has suddenly turned to an unstable mess on the verge of another global war.
And then ingame you see her cheerfully spray other people with her cryo weapon, slowly and painfully freezing them solid - to then make an ice pun and shoot an icicle through their head. All while her victims are still conscious.
I know it wasn't their intention, but it makes it look like she cracked from that experience.
lmao :D
Story-wise they fight Omnics and Talon, basically murder robots and terrorists. I feel like that justifies it a bit. If you're gonna go deep about how it doesn't work lore-wise in the game, you could also comment on how how come two Reinhardts can fight eachother and two Widowmakers for example? Makes no sense, that's why they're making Overwatch 2 for story, for example.
and a giant space gorilla goes around electrocuting everyone...
the actual game is not a reflection of the actual lore, dont dig too deep into it dood
You know how some serial killers have their things I think its cool if she was one because her catch would be making others feel her friends pain. (A SICK REVENGE)
She's the devil
I think you missed the original first overwatch reveal cinematic though but at least it's not extremely important for Zero Hour yet could still be a good watch.
I was about to write the same. :D
He also missed out junkertown
@@cheesybeans5304 If he went into all the smaller ones then there would also be everything from origin stories etc., would be fun too of course but quite a lot of work.
@@Kristian818 origin stories arent really cinematics, whereas junkertown and the reveal trailer give us more about the characters, fun little interactions, action and what the characters are all about, all u get for an origin story is literally just the characters past and links to other characters, plus junkertowns fun
@@cheesybeans5304 junkertown the plan isn’t part of the cinematic universe. There would be no point in him reacting to it, especially since there’s no cinematic quality to it. I really don’t understand why people keep suggesting it to him because he’s doing it to talk about filmmaking techniques, this isn’t the type of page where he’s just reacting for “fun”
Mei is Chinese, so that's where her accent comes from.
And, I believe what Mei says when she wakes up, amounts to "Why is it so cold?" in Chinese (I don't know the language, so I'm going off of memory from a comment on the original video)
Glad you got to this one, since Winstons recall message is quite important to the story :P
And it's mostly showed in Recall, 'Are You With Us?' Teaser and OW1 Intro
React to "Junkertown: The Plan"
No
Yes
Yes
It's not very cinematic though, so I don't know if it's a good fit for him to react to...
Maybe but there are still aspects about it that I think would be interesting for him to look at and tbh I think he’ll like it even if he is not braking it down.
I blessed him when he sneezed
But it looks like he blessed us instead
You should watch “the story so far” recap and the first overwatch cinematic trailer!!!!!!!!
Yeah, so many people have told him to react to the first one and he even said he will in one comment but now he says he's not? It would answer half of his questions and it's really one of the coolest ones!
Also its 2:44, it could fit in a double feature.
Don't feel like that's necessary when you watched all the shorts in a matter of 3-4 months. It's a recap after all, it's meant to remind people that haven't watched the shorts in years. Also, I feel like recaps always kinda spoil what's going to happen >~< xd
I have cried twice during game cinematics. Once for Baldric in Honour and Glory and in this one when Snowball sacrifices his battery. (I may have forgotten that he's battery powered and therefore rechargable.) The creators of these cinematics really know how to play my heartstrings.
0:08 I'M DEAD HE WATCHES AUSTIN EVANS 😂😂😂🤣
Hey guy this is Austin and THIS is the new rise and shine review
to make it a little extra traumatic, Mei feels even more responsible for the team dying in stasis because she designed and help build the cryo pods they used.
I love your insight. The breakdowns you do after watching the videos really makes this channel stand out so much from the other reaction channels.
"is the gun necess.... Oh" cracked me up so good
As many other people said: Before you watch Zero Hour, watch "The story so far" as an intro!
Really love your reactions and the way you analyze the videos, I'm learning lots!
I believe her green version of the classic overwatch patch has to do with Ecopoint, the research base where most of this takes place. It was a research faction of the greater Overwatch organisation. The base is also an ingame playable map.
Mei was previously designated as a "defense" hero, with the other categories being "attack", "support" and "tank", but now she is a "damage" hero (attack and defense got combined. Her skillset is freezing people, shooting icicles at people, building ice walls to temporarily create new terrain, "cryostasis" where she turns invulnerable and heals a bit and her ult is throwing snowball and then snowball creates a large blizzard which freezes and damages people.
I love that transition to the ad for the wallets
I just realized one of the capsules says „Macready“ on it. Like Kurt Russels Character in „The Thing“. 🎞
I'm so happy to see this in my notifications Chris! Keep up the amazing work
Im cry everytime when looked this animation. Waiting for overwatch 2 cinematic)
Best morning routine scene ever: Dexter series opening credits.
Also 'looks at ice' thats realy cool! O_O Come on, its ice what else can it be. ;-)
Mei leaving hot drinks in front of her deceased friends cryopods.
Chris: Ha reminds me of an effect I did back in the day- the hot MUG
I am so exited for the Zero Hour one, it is gonna be SO COOL!!!!!
It's good to be back! Thank you again for all your hard work Chris :D. Keep doing what you're doing
I've seen people make fun of how sad Mei gets when Snowball sacrifices its battery power. "It's a robot, you can recharge it" etc. But really, with Mei *already* having lost her entire team and the OW comms being broken, Snowball is the closest she can even get to companionship. And in the middle of the Antarctic night, there's no way to get solar power like at the end of the episode. So losing Snowball, even for a few hours, is a huge punch in the gut for her.
hi chris! i already watched all of your overwatch reaction videos and i just love them, can’t wait for the last one!
also paragon was sickkk, you’ve got my vote instantly :)
it takes anywhere between 6-12 years for a body to fully decompose, and thats just in the dirt. Mei most likely had to see her friends rotting faces and she's still one of the most joyful characters in overwatch
Ok I don't know how I missed this when it came out, but that intro + that ad... Dude. Slick af.
I think it's a testament to how well the game is designed and to the script of the shorts how we (and Chris) can almost always notice that something is from the game. Gotta love those little "I'm guessing is from the game?". He's always on point.
I love this channel too much. Thanks for making these videos.
I’m not a filmmaker but I still find it fascinating to watch him dissect the design choices, camera angles, colors, and sound. It’s amazing how universal it all is. Thank you for doing these. We appreciate it.
Chris jokingly when the cryo transition is happening: 50 years later
Chris when snowball says 9 years: surprised pikachu
Maybe I missed something but I’m confused, was Mei asleep for 50 years or 9?
@@artlly_ 9 years, Chris was joking that it was 50 years later not expecting it to actually be many years of time passed
@@Fluid1227 oooh thanks for explaining that for me I really appreciate it!
Mei is Chinese, her voice actress actually didn't speak English very well until she started working on Overwatch, so her accent is still very strong.
I am very excited for the reaction to Zero Hour! Been waiting for a while!
Omg I was just thinking about you today Chris. So glad there is a new video!
Chris can you react to more wow cinematics? Warlords of Draenor, Legion, etc.
mists of pandaria in adition to those
WOTLK
I waiting for so long for him to continue reacting to the rest of WoW cinematics...
I can't wait.... there are so many cinematics left to see!!! 😍
I knew nothing about filmmaking before I started to watch these Overwatch series. Thanks for all the analysis, it has been super educational!
1:43 best transition into an ad I've ever seen 🤣
i like your way of reacting so much!!!!!
The Overwatch bases are called different things depending on what section they are under. Most of them are peacekeeping- and omnic monitoring-oriented and they are called Watchpoints.
The science-oriented ones are called Ecopoints.
Fffffff this cinematic is so old and I've seen it so many times but it still makes me cry.
The same method of choosing what to cut on slow scenes or progression of time applies to writing too, I'm a writer in my free time so I totally get what you mean on that!
I really forgot how dark this cinematic was, especially for the least experienced character out of the roster (i think). Despite how much of a monster she is in game
I was introduced to Chris conner today and binged all of your overwatch reactions
His
might wanna have a look at the doomfist origin story, I just think it might be a cool thing to analyse because it resembles the anime style. (but I don't really know if you can analyse effects in this style)
I remember when they first revealed this cinematic at gamescom 2017 I belive, the actually had the whole expo hall where the blizzard booth was in cooled down so it was really chilly in there and at the end they had "snow" falling down! it was an amazing experience :D
Watch please "Sigma Origin Story | Overwatch", there is a very cool sound.
Love the vid great work
Great Job. I love your energy in these reaction videos.
Less action, but you really made me see how the different layers of framing, effects and sound are used to heighten the emotional impact of the key moments and also pointed out the use of rapid cuts to show the passage of time.
Thanks for stopping here, we'll see more of Mei in Zero Hour.
Keep it up! I love what you do.
That's a great reference to the thing. The guys name was macready and he froze to death at the end of the movie.
good vibes all the way
This is an amazing day I love your work and I love your reactions.
5:42 gives me jitters every time. I want to cry every time also XD
When I see a Chris Conner Video I become happy instantly, especially if its Overwatch!
mei is chinese and thats where her accent comes from,
to sum up the patch colors, overwatch was initially a taskforce that stopped the first omnic crisis (robots going rogue) around the world, they then developed into a sort of a U.N organization and within it they had research teams and other stuff to help mankind in the field of science and medicine, they set several ecopoints as they call them around the world to monitor the worlds climate and this is where mei is right now "ecopoint antarctica".
The different colors on the logo does have a meaning. In fact, the green version represents the research faction of Overwatch
I loved that beginning hahah
Yeah the green is like science and research, yellowish orange is like the main thing
Thumbs up for the sneeze into sponsor segue. That was a slick edit.
I know it's not much of cinematic, but you should see the overwatch recap: the stories so far too. it's kind of cool for ke personally, and Winston's speech you heard from rise and shine is there.
The green on the overwatch logo is for ecopoint Antarctica I’m pretty sure (the place she was)
26:04
genji : no problem i will 1vs6
You Need to watch Winston's message in this one, called Are you with us, that's what Everybody respond to and Assemble in Zero Hour, Also a short funny one called the Plan and the Original Cinematic trailer
i already voted for you video, also i enjoyed watching your videos and learn how to use the details in my proyects, really love your content, greetings from Perú keep going
Man you absolutely have to watch the RWBY - RED Trailer. Actually all of them (red, white, black, yellow).By bingewatching all of your reactions i can tell you will 3000% love it.
Yes! Yes-yes-yes! We all need it!
Id go whole series if hes willing.
Yessss
Ehhhh... I’m not too sure on this one. And look, I’m a diehard fan of RWBY, but I’m not sure that’s much of a fit with the other reactions he has been doing.
@@jacobbau8328 So, you're a diehard fan and you don't want him to react to the best animated fighting choreography? Bruh.
Right on time
While "the Plan" uses ingame assets rather than pre-rendered assets like the "real" cinematics, it might be fun to watch anyway.
It's a blatant and loving homage to Looney Tunes (which the director of the short Terran Gregory is a big fan of) and it could be interesting to compare and contrast the cartoon filmmaking techniques as opposed to RL film-making techniques and how they work when applied to CGI animation - and if there's something you can learn/apply when doing RL filmmaking.
I think Roger Rabbit and Cool World are the most prominent examples that has used cartoon film techniques with real actors, but I'm sure there are other examples as well.
The two minute video “The Story so far” would be a GREAT easy recap before zero hour
At least mei can have 9 birthdays straight in a row
Господи, спасибо! Я дождался этого момента!
Я думал, что не успею посмотреть и уйду в армию, а там не увижу уже)
Спасибо за это видео Крис!
Thank God! I waited for this moment!
I thought that I would not have time to see it and go to the army, and there I will not see it anymore)
Thank you for this video, Chris!
You should watch "the story so far" before zero hour (its a short one, so it can be in the same video)
I think I mentioned it in the previous Overwatch video, but now that you mention knowing about the original Overwatch release video I thought I'd mention it again.
Consider doing them both at the same time (the intros to Overwatch 1 and Overwatch 2). They are quite long, 6+8min if I recall, but the first sets up the universe as the audience first would get to know it (plus it is really funny and cute) while the second somewhat assumes an already established knowledge of the world and the heroes. From a storybuilding aspect it would be interesting to see your reasoning in regards to character setups, introductions etc.
It is also a fair few years between them (OW1 was in 2014 if I recall) and OW2 just last year. Almost 6 years between. A lot of technological advancement in CGI, computer power (to even render more advanced frames) and moviemaking in general!
It would be interesting to see you analyze them each on their own but also the differences between them, anything you could attribute to technological advancements but also storybuilding differences (as you mentioned, a lot of disposition in this video. Did they have more of that in their earlier OW-intro compared to the later? Less character focus or more general action? From a more small-scale combat to big, badass hollywood-style battles?).
I'm not sure if there is some Copyright-issues preventing you but, at least consider it please =)
I LOVE ZERO HOUR.
I CANT WAITTTT
Just wanted to mention something about the ray of light comment about 34 minutes in - after you talked about that, the Moria chamber with Balin's sarcophagus in Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring came to mind, since there was a light shining on the sarcophagus there. Almost as cool of a detail as the cave troll.
Another thing I wanna mention is please watch junkertown the plan. It's another overwatch animation, it's not too lengthy but please don't miss out on that animation, it's so funny
There hasn't been any news about Overwatch 2 BUT the next Blizzard convention called BlizzConline will be February 19-20th and they ALWAYS bring a new Overwatch cinematic at Blizzcon so watch out for it.
Also...who else spends as much time watching Chris as watching the cinematic ;)
Snowball coming in clutch with the battery
The Journey of a 1000 miles starts with a single step.
Yes i have been waiting for him to watch zero hero
I think another thing worth mentioning is that the moment where Mei says "Thanks Snowball, at least I still have you" was so intentionally put there to make us sad later when Snowball uses its battery.
It's kinda like when in movies you have protagonists have romantic sex, you know something bad is gonna happen to either of them later on.
And the scene with the northern lights, I think it really gets across Overwatch's message of "a world worth fighting for"
I got teary eyed over a snowball.
4:15
Mei: *speaks chinese*
Chris: ''what? nANI??'' which is japanese
I DIED
I still love The Thing easter egg with the one pod named Macready
Yes
The green overwatch symbol is to symbolise overwatch’s ecopoint program which was established to fight against climate change and try save the planet from that while everywhere else dealt with the robot war (omnic crisis) . The research base where Mei works here is one of these eco points and so the info she has collected is 9 years worth of information about climate chcange and how to stop it, In terms of factions of overwatch from what we know there’s main overwatch (orange) then ecopoint team (green) there blackwatch (black and red) which deals with like illegal things for the greater good and works mostly undercover (blackwatch is one of the main reasons for overwatch being disbanded as the public found out) I also believe there’s been hints to another overwatch team with blue on the logo in comics and other images however we don’t yet know if it has relevance or what it means
Please react to Ashe's cinematics, also to WoW Harbingers, Warbringers and Afterlives Cinematics!!
