      She didn't kill everyone, just the other Inti warriors in their headquarters who were gathered to watch her ceremony. The rest of her people lived in the city a little ways away (you can even see it in the scenes with her in the headquarter ruins). But even if she didn't kill her entire people, now she has to protect people who probably hate her for getting their family members who were other Inti warriors killed. Also you can see the city behind her in the very last scene.

    I have to say that I prefer the way they teased Ramatrra, first the lore and then a couple days later the gameplay. For me at least that build up a lot more hype than the way these last two were released, since you already know what they are all about and can then speculate about their abilities.

      They had us speculating about Ramattra since 2019 with the Storm Rising mission in that year's Archive's event. I do like when a character is added and we already have some context for them. OW plot/story/worldbuilding has a ton of loose ends, and the game itself doesn't allow for much character development, so I'm not sure how far we will get to know about Illari. Especially considering her entire community is... dead, as we see in this Origin Story. I do wonder what else we can learn about her.

    No matter the amount of security to prevent someone from messing with it, the ultimate defense against such disaster is to put such a device behind a lot of armor, and to never, ever, gather the entire group in one place (after all someone might just bring a bomb).

      @phoenixfyre365 Před 9 měsíci +16

      Well if we're to take the story at face value the technology is *highly* efficient solar energy which... well, _harnesses the power of the Sun._ It's not Dyson Swarm/Sphere levels of efficient, but definitely enough to do justice for that phrase. So, no, not magic. Just really, *really* efficient solar power technology- probably (if not most likely) merged with biotechnology for those with high compatibility.
      I guess that answers question 2.
      For question 3: Again, if we're taking the story at face value, I'm guessing she had too much potential? Maybe her compatibility for the Solar tech was too high and the settings weren't prepped properly because they overlooked something crucial (I don't think it's her fault, because people with survival's guilt blame themselves a lot, it's pretty sad). Anyway, lack of info ---> not enough (proper) prep time, the right settings, or caution on the scientists/engineers/whoever's side----> Transformer gives her the power (Play the He-Man music!), but compatibility is over 100%! "Oopsie, we weren't ready for tha-" ---> Cue the Chernobyl-style explosion fueled by too much solar energy in her ignition and - Presto! Breakthrough in science! Oh, everyone's dead except her... *Whoops!* 😳 (By the way, she left *no evidence?* no charred bodies at all? Impressive, in a dark way - which is morbidly funny due to the context.)
      Look on the bright side, newbie- everyone has a _certain_ weakness! Superman has Kryptonite, Batman has trauma, and you have Survival's Guilt! (You better hope the enemy can't defend themselves verbally as they do physically!)
      Not sure for the first question though. It could be the Overwatch universe's version of Wakanda for all we know.

      See I agree with the first person and I know someone is gonna get the wrong idea over this but there are actually three characters who seem to be like that (excluding Widowmaker who has a reason) but Sojourn, Sym and now Illari are just poor. They are so... boring. Design is ok at most but their personality, story and character are about as interesting as a blank piece of paper is to someone that can't draw. This one is probably the worst there is since her tragedy is just laughable. If it wasn't for Bap, Sombra or Lucio, I'd assume they were just filling their minds with this idea that darker skin tone characters should be more serious to say the least. Doomfist is a bit like that too but I think the difference is just that he has that "evil leader" feel nailed so perfectly. I have nothing against making characters like this but seeing them do it so often not just here but other games too is just getting old. At least make more dark skin tone female characters that have some kind of personality before adding this serious stuff so much.

    This update in general is a step in the right direction for Overwatch, but Illari in particular really is a cool character; one of the best they've made so far in my opinion. She has a cool design, story, and fits right into the cast. 10/10

      There's a huge gap between the artistic side of this franchise and everything else. The storytelling is a 10 but everything else is in the worse state ever.

      Well, it's kinda more typical that she does fight, also kind of makes the survivor's guilt pointless if she just has it and it has no effect on her character. So why did they even add it?
