The rework of Symmetra from Overwatch is extremely well received by some fans. Especially the new voicelines have impressed many fans.
Currently, the rework of Symmetra is being tested on the PTR of Overwatch. While players are not yet in agreement about whether Symmetra’s new abilities are really cool or rather annoying, there is complete clarity on another topic: Symmetra’s new voicelines. Fans are highly enthusiastic and praise Blizzard and the voice actress Anjali Bhimani.
Photon barrier has a new sound. The new voiceline became necessary because Symmetra is getting a fresh ultimate. The photon barrier spans a wall across the entire map, blocking up to 5000 damage for several seconds. Symmetra says the words “Yahi param vaastavikta hai” – which translates to “This is the ultimate reality”. Opponents hear the phrase “Reality bends to my will” instead.
Fans are excited. Players are thrilled with the new sound files. The enthusiasm is also due to the fact that Bhimani is already in close contact with her fans. But we can tell you a lot. Nothing shows the enthusiasm better than some fan snippets.
Kotaku has compiled some of the funniest reactions. Among them are (freely translated) the following statements:
- “The new voiceline is so cool. Oh yeah, I love my wife.”
- “Symmetra’s new voiceline for the ultimate has made me 500% more lesbian.”
- “The only good thing about the rework of Symmetra are her new voicelines.”
What do you think about Symmetra’s rework and her new voicelines? Do you understand the fans’ enthusiasm or do you find their reaction exaggerated?
