Overwatch's Doomfist is Voiced by Veteran Actor Sahr Ngaujah

He may not be Terry Crews, but Overwatch's Doomfist is voiced by someone with serious acting chops.

Most people doesn't really care about voice acting especially on multiplayer online battles. lol. If Valve or Riot goes for a FPS Dota or FPS League of Legend they will go all out with a lots of heroes because they don't have to hire big name voice actors like what Overwatch is doing with their new heroes.

Acting in overwatch is what's make overwatch what it is. They make the characters who they are so yeah most people do care. Its what made me like overwatch in the 1st place.

admiralvic2848d ago

I would actually say that isn't true. A good example of this is Destiny.

While I don't think certain characters are popular, or in some cases unpopular, because they have XYZ actor, there is no denying that their voice adds a lot to the character. This can be best seen with Lord Shaxx, who is basically just the Crucible announcer, as his lines aren't particularly well written or memorable (two for one, triple down, I can't believe what I'm seeing, this is amazing, etc), but the way they're said adds a lot to the game.

Overwatch's voice actors are extremely popular in their community, so this is a pretty big deal. Plus people were clamoring for Terry Crews, thus the story.

Zero idea who this guy is but his voice acting impressed me quite a bit in the teaser I think he's the perfect voice for Doomfist.

When Overwatch was good and fun, now who the hell cares. Blizzard is just shit and doesn't care about it's employees. OW2 just needs to go away.

Former Blizzard President Wanted to Reduce Diablo 4 Microtransactions and Reboot Overwatch

Former Blizzard president Mike Ybarra wanted to cut back on Diablo 4 microtransactions and reboot Overwatch.

Giga_Gaia196d ago

"But, his push for these changes made him unpopular with some Blizzard employees." He was the president, should have just fired them.

...from a cannon... into the sun.

The president is appointed by the board. Probably those who didn't like him.

SimpleDad196d ago (Edited 196d ago )

That's why he is a former president.
D4 bad.

I can just imagine the scene between him and Kotick being something like a scene in Simpsons with Mr Burns feigning interest while repeatedly pressing his button.

MS didn’t buy ABK to get rid of MTs. They want more

neutralgamer1992196d ago

Sadly any positive changes that we as gamers thought might take place are over and done with

Tacoboto196d ago

Are people really buying what Ybarra is selling?

Remember - this is the same guy that said he wishes you could leave a tip after buying a game.

Him saying now he wanted to *reduce* MTX is riiiiich, seems like he's using Schreier's book to try and save face now that he doesn't have to face his former employees.
