Moderators Mr.JohnnySins Postat Aprilie 29 Moderators Postat Aprilie 29 Some Heroes enter the Overwatch universe cloaked in darkness, sneaking in the shadows, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike. Sierra Woods? Not so much. If the hot pink drone didn’t get your attention when Season 2 debuted, her sparkling grenades and sugar-sweet Southern drawl should do the job. Whether she’s facing a steep peak or Talon’s newest agents of misery, Sierra carries her responsibilities—and her own mysteries—with whimsy and a healthy dose of confidence. I talked to the narrative team to learn how they wove this streak of sunshine into the tapestry of Overwatch lore with the help of collaborators, unraveling a mystery that could have long-standing effects in the story ahead. A Common Thread Early concept meetings for Hero 51 included a pitch for a US-based damage Hero with a military background. Senior narrative designer Jude Stacey saw a valuable opportunity to explore a foundational piece of Overwatch lore: the Soldier Enhancement Program. Going back to Overwatch’s announcement in 2014, it counts Jack “Soldier: 76” Morrison and Soldier: 24 (better known as Reaper nowadays) among its alumni. “We’ve delved into it with Illari and Soldier: 76, who are now on their own little adventure, but we wanted to dive into the history of that program,” Jude said. The untold story of Soldier 00—the first recipient of the enhancement serum—intrigued the narrative team, especially the idea of what her post-experimental life might have looked like. When we meet Sierra in the current story, she’s twelve years into a search for her missing mother. It’s a journey the Overwatch community gets to join by putting pieces together through in-game lore tidbits and Sierra’s motion comic. Unveiling the history of Kendra Woods (or Banks, before she went on the run) through her daughter allowed the team to tell the story of a next-generation Overwatch agent from a unique angle. Sierra is blissfully unaware that she has any special abilities for most of her life, attributing her quick reflexes and sharp mind to her mother’s teaching. She didn’t need years of education like Wuyang and Anran and doesn’t hail from another planet like Juno; Sierra inherits abilities as well as the danger that comes from having them. The way she handles the mystery and consequence of her origin—with confidence and joy—becomes the core of her story. Sursa
