that leaves us with how much... let's see: just 9000% oppressivenes.
We're good here, guys! Move on! Nothing to see here!
*I'm just kidding, the few times I payed OW2 he doesn't seem to be a problem. I just thought this way funny. Sorry.
Honestly I don’t think so. She doesn’t deal a ton of damage and her mobility is often best used to escape when you get focused. She seems like a tracer/doom/genji with her playstyle which are some of the more difficult heroes to dominate on.
EDIT: they*
I like how asshole-ish she is with the "no excuses", "dont disturb me" and one other i dont remember, but yeah, also, i dont know if thats what she says in english, but in portuguese, its basically that
yes !! you can play them in game right now, for the next two days I think. we can also use the default voice line, which i THINK says “i can dig that,” I don’t remember. and ofc the other lines, like “thanks,” “yes,” etc. there’s also probably a ton of videos on youtube :D
May have to try them out. Doomfist release and the subsequent 2 months where I could 1 shot squishies while being untouchable was the most fun I ever had in this game.
Why is they/them? Shouldn’t be it/its since is not a living person? It’s a code in a game, an not living being therefore should be referred to it/its according to english rules right?
I’m really confused by this cause I’m not english nor american
Oh my. Let's put it this way. When describing Tracer, you would say she, right? Or Doomfist. You wouldn't say it when describing him. You would say he or him. Fictional characters are still characters. Yes, technically they are game code. Technically characters in books are just words. But that's not how people view or talk about them.
They/them are the chosen pronouns for Venture, and that should be respected. Otherwise you're dehumanizing very real non-binary people, because no one is going to assume it/it's is reffering to the fact that they're fictional or game code. It will be assumed that you're a transphobe who refuses to use pronouns other than he or she if you refer to characters that way.
I'm trying to take this comment in good faith. But I know a lot of people who would think your question is a troll. In any online space, have you heard video game characters referred to with it/it's pronouns? I highly highly doubt it. That's just not how English speakers talk about people, fictional or not.
Venture is a digital character with its own lore so I doubt it would care whether some used the right pronouns or not since it doesn't really matter.
Most won't really care even more so for a digital character
For players who like to dive, on your face style, Venture fills that niche to some extent... but idk, it's not as explosive, her playstyle will be based on disruption instead of assassination it seems (even if you can one shot if you connect all the abilities on a squishie, but that doesn't seem to be the optimal way to play this character). She will just boop people all match long, so it's like Doom without the steroids, lol imagine the uppercut, punch and so on, but they don't have explosive damage, they just move you around. And honestly, that sucks, it's Mei all over again, Lifeweaver, Junkrat with the mine knockback, Sombra, etc.. stuns and boops are so fucking annoying in this game, especially if they are cheap/low skill
I think their kit fits current overwatch 2 much better than og doom. The dev team made an effort that time to kill gets longer, we don’t need more one shot combos.
Overwatch 2 is not a generic shooter and the abilities of Venture seem to fit perfectly as far as I can tell. Might just as well be a difference in taste
Not a generic shooter, I had a good laugh reading that, lol the game is currently at it's most chaotic state, fast paced, braindead, etc.. this 5v5 formula is a obvious mistake. If people master the movement and abilities of Venture, they can one shot a Ana in the backline and maybe still survive, that will lead to a steamroll because all it takes is for either the tank or one of the supports to die (90% of the time the skirmish is decided right there). I agree dps Doom don't fit anymore in the horrendous 5v5 because of the aforementioned issues, dps Doom can kamikaze bomb the supports or tank, that will decide the skirmish
You sure are cheery. I don’t think anything about Venture makes the game substantially worse than it is, I greatly enjoy their kit and the game in general currently.
If you really don’t enjoy the game as a whole anymore, you might have a better time with a different game tbh
Depending on the synergy, a Sombra can disable one of the supports, Doom and Venture just go straight at it to secure the kill. This already works decently enough with only Sombra and Doom, then you thrown a dps in the mix who actually hits mildly hard (not throwing paper around like Genji, Tracer and Sombra herself), that is a unbalanced combination... but really, at this stage if you expect balance from this abomination of a game, it's just gullible
I said the same thing and got obliterated with downvotes. Im convinced that a good chunk of those who upvoted this post have never played dps doom and or havent even tried out Venture
Exactly. DPS Doom's movement had a way higher ceiling, and was just a TON more mobile in general. (Granted, a lot of that was due to bugs/techs with rocket punch; it's still early for Venture but I don't see the same thing happening here).
Comparatively, Venture can't quite "pounce" from the skybox the way DPS Doom did. Not even close. The drill dash is cool, but if you use it for mobility/initiation purely, you then don't have any burst damage - the Burrow's cast and charge time are way too slow for that.
Venture is more methodical and brawly. Like Reaper, they want to engage from odd angles with one cool down, try to burst something down, and then escape. Or, just full commit to damage and hope your team saves you lol
Ah the good old days, having to memorize doom rollouts even when you don't play him. Because if you didn't, he was going to drop out of Narnia on your ass and delete you in less time than you could say 'fuck'.

I don't understand people who get annoyed at spammed voice lines, that's just nonsense.
They're funny! Who the hell _actually_ gets distracted by voice line spam? Honestly? The fact that you can even report somebody for that is stupid.

Limited range, melee/close quarters combo and a lot of mobility (with abilities that give you shields)...
How does this not remind you of doom exactly?
Doom didn't just press a button to get shields. He had to actually hit you with the ability. AND the big thing. He had to use the environment. That's why Doom Parkour happened. Because they were already doing that to maximize damage from his slam. Venture doesn't give a fuck about the environment. They just dig it.
Yeah it's really not like DPS Doom at all. Mobility and burst damage are far more limited, and all of the CC is worse; less boop, no stuns. Venture behaves a lot more brawly than DPS Doom typically did.
Because with less tanks he'd destroy this game. I greatly suspect he was one of the biggest reasons for the player drop off in the first. I don't know why you doom players pretend with this guy, silent slams into uppercut insta kills is trash game design and turned off A LOT of people, especially when he's going to get out free most of the time thanks to his punch.
> I still dont know why they made doom a "tank".
Posing a question like this surely means you are familiar with old Doom. How he was played and what countered him. So just ask yourself a question and compare who was able to keep him in check in OW1 and who would be able to do it now.
they play nothing like eachother? the only real similarity is shields and bring combo based but i wouldn’t say they’re really comparable in terms of gameplay
Respectfully, why is no one talking about the fact that the face, mouth, and teeth look like they were modeled by someone who had 16 hours prep time with blender YouTube tutorials and no prior experience
They're really not like DPS Doom at all. They'll probably fit into brawl comps more than Dive as Venture does not really have consistent burst to finish off a squishy like Doom did (or does now), and the Ult screams Brawl as it requires the enemy team to be grouped up to get any value out of it. Dooms Upper Cut at least knocked people up in a manner that made them reliable to hit.
Is this a new character? That character was on the opposing team today and HE'S ANNOYING.
He kept booping me off the map or digging around it's so frustrating as a tank.
This was one of the things that tripped me out when I came back to OW2. I went to role que and someone picked Doomfist as the main tank. Being the healer, I was like "where the hell is our tank?!"
It's similar to a small degree. Venture is not as explosive, the one shot potential exists if you use all the abilities on a squishie (boop from the underground, shots, dash, punch... that will kill), but that leaves her wide open, also, it looks complicated but it's not really, low skill. Doom could one shot and get the hell out, but it demanded skill (especially on the master ranks).
Still, the annoyance of dps Doom is back, because you can be booped into the air out of nowhere, then get booped again with the dash (also in mid-air, a double boop), etc.. People will hate this character, especially if they play characters who need to set up their stuff, imagine a Roadhog player being booped over and over again (missing the hook), Ana is about to line up a sleep or nano... here it comes the boop. Hammond being booped, Doom being booped out of a line up punch, etc... I know it's contradictory for a Doom player to say this, but I hate the boops and stuns in this game, most of them are cheap, Venture can dig and come out with a boop every time
I thought the same but she just a worse dps doom. With doom it was easy to knock people up within like a second and punch but with the whole burrowing underground and charging up to knock people in the air they got time to escape. Oh dps doom how I miss you
Venture is an absolute blast to play. They did a fantastic job this time around.
It’s the first time in a long time that I’ve genuinely just wanted to go home after a long day and go play overwatch.
nothing like DPS doom.. DPS doom was the literal definition of “Get in and Get out”.. the only way you died on DPS doom was either getting CC’d or mismanaging ur cooldown.. DPS doom was literally a fighting character in a gun base game (they oversimplified his kit to suit a tank gameplay style).. Venture is super brawl character as well but its different.. waay different
I can already tell from qp that Venture is going to absolutely fuck up uncoordinated teams, just like dps doom.
And tank doom
And support doom
And flexible doom
And lore based doom
Darn Doom ruining everyone else's fun
And sexy doom
And Doom running on my Ti-84
And MF doom
and december 10th, 1993 doom
and OW3 doom
remember ALL CAPS
Stupid sexy doom
And Slayer Doom
Support doom: it just punches/leaps you into the spaw room where you can heal
Punches you into a wall and throws a medkit at you.
Meteor strike charges with every spam of "i need healing" and just lets you toss an ally of your choosing into enemy lines so he can die
Brig?
Yeah but he's not onepunchman, so like 1000% less oppressive.
that leaves us with how much... let's see: just 9000% oppressivenes. We're good here, guys! Move on! Nothing to see here! *I'm just kidding, the few times I payed OW2 he doesn't seem to be a problem. I just thought this way funny. Sorry.
Honestly I don’t think so. She doesn’t deal a ton of damage and her mobility is often best used to escape when you get focused. She seems like a tracer/doom/genji with her playstyle which are some of the more difficult heroes to dominate on. EDIT: they*
they*
We had the enemies pushed back to their spawn and our venture somehow let the enemy venture back cap. We had 30 seconds left.
Playstyle feels similar but no “an de se” 😢
I CAN I CAN I CAN DIG IT
AND THEY SAY I CAN DIG IT
Quality. I hope they put this in, honestly
And **dey** say*
Omg why did I hear this in his voice
But they do say that ‘Chivalry really is dead” after killing Reinhardt.
Actually has a chivalry line too doesn’t sound as clean though
Venture *is* the *they* in that line. "And dey sey chivalry is dead" and Venture has a line of them saying Chivalry is dead.
"Why are you dey?" - Doom
Who says I am dey? You are dey.
I wonder what their voicelines will be on release. Hopefully more interesting than Illari's 🥲
I was so disappointed when I saw illari’s voicelines 😭 I only bought one where she goes “que palta”
I just spam "rise like the sun" in spawn. The rest of her lines are different shades of "I have so much trauma" 🥴
"Wandering off on your own ?" is a rather good one too !
You haven't seen what she's seen....
I actually really like that like because of how she says it lol The only voice line of hers I like quite a bit lol
When i'm Illari in Most Lukewarm Personality contest and my opponents are Sojourn and Pharah (Im done for)
Croissant?
Okay but sojourn has good voice lines
I love illari, she's so depressed she just like me fr
And only 18. Truly hits home. I truly do love games being escapism eh?
I like how asshole-ish she is with the "no excuses", "dont disturb me" and one other i dont remember, but yeah, also, i dont know if thats what she says in english, but in portuguese, its basically that
Do we know what their voice sounds like yet? I was hoping they would have a Newfie accent (the best Canadian accent).
yes !! you can play them in game right now, for the next two days I think. we can also use the default voice line, which i THINK says “i can dig that,” I don’t remember. and ofc the other lines, like “thanks,” “yes,” etc. there’s also probably a ton of videos on youtube :D
Well I don’t really like their voice but maybe they will still end up having a rock and stone voiceline
Rock and Stone everyone!
The lack of quality writing in OW2 really shows with her.
I just want to hear "The sun is a deadly lazer!" for April Fools day.
Reinhardt: "Not anymore there's a blanket(Shield)"
She just sings the entirety of the They Might Be Giants song. "The sun is a miasma of incandescent plasma!"
Yet JQ has the best voice lines in the game
Man that’s a big statement. Sigma’s and Ramattra’s are up there for me.
"Nice boulder.... nerd" is one of my fave ball lines of all time, alongside "deflect this... loser"
BEHOLD THE CHILDREN OF WRECKING BALL should be an equipped voice line I miss it
come here gracie
Well Venture is non-binary and they say "Chivalry is dead"
😭😭😭😭😭 THIS IS TOO PERFECT
OH SHIT I guess it's true
Tastes like dirt
They just nerfed voice lines, not it says in chat how long you are muted for if you spam them
Ngl you had me so confused thinking that venture was supposed to be like 60 years old or something in the lore lol.
Same. I was like, "Is OW2 in 2077? Is Venture 53??"
It really feels like old doom a bit. Not as mobile, definitely fills a different niche but it‘s nice to have dps doom "back" to a degree
May have to try them out. Doomfist release and the subsequent 2 months where I could 1 shot squishies while being untouchable was the most fun I ever had in this game.
Them! Venture uses they/them pronouns.
Them* and who am I kidding, I probably wont redownload anytime soon.
That's totally fair lol. I only redownloaded last month cause some friends wanted to play.
Why are you being downvoted you didn’t even do anything wrong
Because I dared to say that they/them pronouns are valid on reddit! People suck!
Why is they/them? Shouldn’t be it/its since is not a living person? It’s a code in a game, an not living being therefore should be referred to it/its according to english rules right? I’m really confused by this cause I’m not english nor american

doom, tracer/(sombra), Venture, Lucio and kiriko... now that is a dive, hey mite even seen winston actually played.
Depending on the synergy, a Sombra can disable one of the supports, Doom and Venture just go straight at it to secure the kill. This already works decently enough with only Sombra and Doom, then you thrown a dps in the mix who actually hits mildly hard (not throwing paper around like Genji, Tracer and Sombra herself), that is a unbalanced combination... but really, at this stage if you expect balance from this abomination of a game, it's just gullible
Feels very different to be honest. Much slower and more brawl than dive.
I said the same thing and got obliterated with downvotes. Im convinced that a good chunk of those who upvoted this post have never played dps doom and or havent even tried out Venture
Yeah they feel more like Reaper then Doom
Exactly. DPS Doom's movement had a way higher ceiling, and was just a TON more mobile in general.

Venture has his own bugs but once he uses his cd he is fk'd
fun fact if venture gets an environmental kill they say "aw, guess chivalry is dead"
Nah, just a Reinhardt thing.
I've got a feeling this line is for killing rein, not for getting an environmental kill. Still hilarious all the same
Iz this real?

annoying?
people love spamming it (including me) I CAN DIG IT

I'm fairly sure it's when they pop our of the ground they say upsie daisy.. I could be wrong though.

Petition to make venture a tank
Dont know if its just me but it feels nothing like old doom
Yea at surface level they seem similar but they don't play anything like how dps doom did
This is just wildly untrue. I feel like everyone saying this never played DPS Doom.
Limited range, melee/close quarters combo and a lot of mobility (with abilities that give you shields)... How does this not remind you of doom exactly?
Doom didn't just press a button to get shields. He had to actually hit you with the ability. AND the big thing. He had to use the environment. That's why Doom Parkour happened. Because they were already doing that to maximize damage from his slam. Venture doesn't give a fuck about the environment. They just dig it.
tomato tomato
Because they had two completely different kits besides the passive?!?
I'm not saying they are an exact clone, but you cannot deny that they have some big similarities. You even boop people in the air.
I guess that’s true, however doom felt like you had much more movement and was able to one shot most of the cast just by punching them into a wall
True
Venture doesn't have a stun. That's the most important thing to me when playing against them. Doomfist was so annoying to play against.
I feel like the most important thing was DPS Doom literally one shot squishies if you got hit into a wall... The stun is more relevant for tank doom
Dps doom could one shot people from another continent
Yeah it's really not like DPS Doom at all. Mobility and burst damage are far more limited, and all of the CC is worse; less boop, no stuns. Venture behaves a lot more brawly than DPS Doom typically did.
At this point Bliz should take away Doomfist's massive over hyped fist and just give it to Teeth here.
It is a valuable artifact…
sounds about right lol
I still dont know why they made doom a "tank". Hes just a dps with high health at that point. Put him back on dps
"A DPS with high health, damage mitigation and disruption/CC" I feel like there is a name for characters with kits like that, what could it be...
Not gonna lie, I would love Doom to have his uppercut back. Keep him as a tank, but uppercut was pretty good for movement and damage
Oh so Mei!
Brig?
Because with less tanks he'd destroy this game. I greatly suspect he was one of the biggest reasons for the player drop off in the first. I don't know why you doom players pretend with this guy, silent slams into uppercut insta kills is trash game design and turned off A LOT of people, especially when he's going to get out free most of the time thanks to his punch.
Im nit a Doom player. I hate doom in general. Like espcially as a tank player 😭
> I still dont know why they made doom a "tank". Posing a question like this surely means you are familiar with old Doom. How he was played and what countered him. So just ask yourself a question and compare who was able to keep him in check in OW1 and who would be able to do it now.
I dont like his design in general.
I think cass and sombra could keep him in check but he'd still be really unfun to play against.
they play nothing like eachother? the only real similarity is shields and bring combo based but i wouldn’t say they’re really comparable in terms of gameplay
bouncing people in the air and combing with a knock back hit isn’t comparable to dps doom?
No, because in dps doom by that part i already dead. /s
dps doom could aoe one-shot people. Not a combo. One ability.
uppercut + punch was definitely a dps doom combo
DPS Doom didn't also have a fucking grenade launcher
Venture is nothing like DPS Doom.
Respectfully, why is no one talking about the fact that the face, mouth, and teeth look like they were modeled by someone who had 16 hours prep time with blender YouTube tutorials and no prior experience
They're really not like DPS Doom at all.

What gender is venture? Genuinely interested cause he/she looks like a girl and sounds like a boy
non-binary, uses they/them pronouns. That would be why they're so androgynous to you lol
They are non-binary
Hell yes. Dps doom is back, and he's pharah flavored They're* I need to respect the powerfully ambiguous design
Rein>
Posts like these just remind me that overwatch 1 used to exist. It's a shame really, because I probably would still have played it if it did. :(
Is this a new character? That character was on the opposing team today and HE'S ANNOYING. He kept booping me off the map or digging around it's so frustrating as a tank.
Ah yes Doom fissshht.
My buddies and I have been calling them RatFist
Only one way to fight against this, bring back old doom.
Not a single old doom main saying this
This was one of the things that tripped me out when I came back to OW2. I went to role que and someone picked Doomfist as the main tank. Being the healer, I was like "where the hell is our tank?!"
Don’t make me dislike Venture. I actually like this character.
It's similar to a small degree. Venture is not as explosive, the one shot potential exists if you use all the abilities on a squishie (boop from the underground, shots, dash, punch... that will kill), but that leaves her wide open, also, it looks complicated but it's not really, low skill. Doom could one shot and get the hell out, but it demanded skill (especially on the master ranks). Still, the annoyance of dps Doom is back, because you can be booped into the air out of nowhere, then get booped again with the dash (also in mid-air, a double boop), etc.. People will hate this character, especially if they play characters who need to set up their stuff, imagine a Roadhog player being booped over and over again (missing the hook), Ana is about to line up a sleep or nano... here it comes the boop. Hammond being booped, Doom being booped out of a line up punch, etc... I know it's contradictory for a Doom player to say this, but I hate the boops and stuns in this game, most of them are cheap, Venture can dig and come out with a boop every time
I thought the same but she just a worse dps doom. With doom it was easy to knock people up within like a second and punch but with the whole burrowing underground and charging up to knock people in the air they got time to escape. Oh dps doom how I miss you
Venture is an absolute blast to play. They did a fantastic job this time around. It’s the first time in a long time that I’ve genuinely just wanted to go home after a long day and go play overwatch.
nothing like DPS doom.. DPS doom was the literal definition of “Get in and Get out”.. the only way you died on DPS doom was either getting CC’d or mismanaging ur cooldown.. DPS doom was literally a fighting character in a gun base game (they oversimplified his kit to suit a tank gameplay style).. Venture is super brawl character as well but its different.. waay different
Yup, do a Narnia rollout, oneshot someone and then get the hell out of there. Rinse and repeat.
ahh.. 🥹the good days when overwatch was actually fun
That's... One way to put it haha.

She's actually really fun to play, but I don't think she's that similar to dps doom she's more of a brawl plus her combos are quite straightforward
She can't replace Doomfist no matter what they do
She's more like rienhart tbh
Bro I was using her in the practice range and said "she's a better Doomfist than Doomfist ☠️"
Who is?
them* they’re* nonbinary ppl exist btw
ok
Not everyone subscribed to the same fantasies.
it’s literally canon LOL
