(The man, the fist, wait... WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE IS NOT TERRY?)
Terry Crews, the most wanted voice actor for
Overwatch thanks to its charm and amazing voice; everyone wanted him to be
Doomfist, to voice the head of Talon; yet Jeff had another completely different
idea. Indeed, Terry Crews may be everything you want him to be, except
Doomfist, and this created many complain around every site on the internet, but
is it really that bad to not have Terry as Doomfist?
(OH! THE DECEPTION! THE BETRAYAL!)
Many wanted Crews to be him, just for memes; voice
lines like: “POWER” or so, but after the reveal, a comic issue appeared,
revealing information on Doomfist, we can clearly read that he is nothing but a
shouting brute killing everyone because reasons, instead he is a gentleman, he
is serious, he is analytic, he believes that the weak should die or evolve to
become worthy of being labeled as a human being, and many characteristics more.
While Terry could have done this voice perfectly,
people do not like him because of that, but rather of how easily he can make a
character become a genuine funny character to listen to; an image that Doomfist
does not want to give to all players since it would differ with his
personality.
(Just look at him, he is gorgeous)
If he had voice Doomfist, the whole character
would have been ruined, but just because our favorite Old Spice hero did not
become the martial artist with the gauntlet that would make Thanos tremble in
fear does not mean that he cannot bring another Overwatch hero to life, after
all; the voice actor himself has shown interest in becoming part of the
Overwatch line of voice actors, so who knows? Maybe he will become a comic
relief character for the game but with importance nonetheless.
(Honestly, how many of you actually thought of this possiblity?)
So, while playing One Doomfist Man, please do
not hate the character just because Terry did not voice him, instead enjoy how
much the developers of one of the best class-based shooter games out there put
into creating the character, after all admit it; his punch dash looks fun as
possible as it can be! His model looks great, his design; while not the best
out of the DLC characters, is still amazing as it can be, his voice, his story,
and the surprise “anime” like trailer that the character brought with, Doomfist
has brought some interesting card to the table, and we should appreciate all of
that hard work from the developers, no complaining about Terry Crews or that we
should already be asking for new characters to the all-mighty god Jeff Kaplan.
(The Talon family is reunited at last! Let the massacre begin!)
With Doomfist out, it seems that the Overwatch
villians are finally taking shape in universe, since Sombra kinda works for
herself and Junkrat and Roadhog are aside of Talon, being independent
criminals; we would love to listen to what do you think Overwatch has in store
for future villians! Would it be a villain-rival like of a specific character?
Or will it be an even bigger thread than Doomfist? Maybe even a joke villain,
that is like a low-range grunt, but that makes something that causes a great
impact in the story without thinking? Who knows, Overwatch and Jeff are always
surprising us with new characters, Sombra with her ARG, Doomfist with his hype,
Orisa with her out of nowhere debut and Ana stablishing the idea of incoming
free characters to add to the already gigantic and diverse cast of Overwatch!
(Ah, a classic Doomfist jok- Wait, is that Ms. Fortune down there? Why?)
