Overwatch Miscellaneous Talk is a nubani Overwatch dedicated to the study of Overwatch game plot culture of a column, this column will share with you our overwatch huge world view and plot story, some analysis and interpretation of game culture, welcome to discuss together.
At 12:00 a.m. on August 19, the long-awaited Overwatch's fifth drama animated short film, The Last Fortress, was officially released. As a fortress-themed animated short film, many players have been joking about it after the official trailer, is it necessary to beep However, Blizzard once again gave us great satisfaction, this animated short film, the whole process did not beep beep a few times, but the plot is deeply moving.
In this issue, we will talk about this animated short film. Today we will first talk about the origin of the fortress, the little bird Nini, and the wisdom weapon unit in the final battle.
Why is it the last bastion?
In the background of the official story of the fortress, the fortress was originally built for peacekeeping, the full name is SST experimental siege machine E54 "fortress", but when the wisdom weapon crisis occurs, it becomes the main force of the wisdom weapon, which is the backbone of the robot rebel army.
After the end of the intelligence crisis, the human race won, and this dangerous robot must not be left any longer, so almost all the fortress series robots were destroyed and dismantled. Thus this fortress, which was not found in the forest, became the last fortress.
From the fortress animation, we will also find that the fortress seems to be very far from the battlefield, combined with the battle screen behind, the reason why the fortress is far away from the battlefield and has not been found may be that it was hit and fell when it was airdropped.
Battlefield footage can see intelligent aircraft airdrop robots.
There are some container remains near the fortress in the picture, which should be the container when the fortress was airdropped.
Although the fortress was not killed, the combat procedures were almost completely damaged, replaced by a strong curiosity about the natural world and its inhabitants. If a mental weapon like Zen Yata represents the peak of the mental level of the intellectual weapon, then the fortress should belong to the state of a child who does not understand.
About the fortress bird friend Nini
After watching the anime, nini the little bird soared in popularity, and many players were very interested in nini. However, many players do not know where the name Nini comes from, in fact, it is very simple, the name of this bird can be seen in the spray paint of the fortress in the game.
The spray paint of the fortress, the name of the spray paint is called the little bird Nini. You can also see another Nini Watch's spray paint.
The official setting of the fortress is also introduced to Nini. Nini's English name is Ganymede, Genimede. It is the name of a beautiful teenager in Greek mythology, which is used to name Ganymede, the largest moon in the solar system.
Why this bird is called this name, very long ago meat meat has also Googled this question, found that foreign forum players also have questions about this, but there is no official Blizzard answer.
Flesh personally believes that this English name should be an allusion to the largest moon in the solar system, indicating that she always surrounds the fortress. Because if it is taken from a Greek mythological story, Ganymede is a beautiful boy, the only male companion of Zeus, and the story is also a bit dirty, and it is too different from nini's cute image.
In any case, Blizzard's extremely delicate animation performance, less than 1 minute after the opening, Nini has successfully captured the player's heart.
We've put together a collection of pictures of Boni, so don't miss it for players who like Nini.
After watching the last fortress, I became a fan of Nini~! Nini HD collection
The wisdom weapon unit that will finally fight the battle of the intelligent weapon war
After searching for the pictures stored in the dead fortress on the ground, the fortress replayed the entire war picture, which is also the first time we have seen the video combat screen of the intelligent weapon war, and the previous combat pictures are all original pictures.
The significance of this battle itself is extraordinary, because it is the final battle of the first intelligent weapon war. We can see that there are 4 types of troops on the Wisdom Weapon side:
Meat simply summarizes it as: fortress, battery robot, giant robot, airplane.
From the animation, we can also find that the way to distinguish the offensive intelligence weapon is to have a red light.
From the picture, the intelligent flying robot can perform the task of transporting airdrop fortresses, and it is not clear whether it can drop bombs and airdrop other types of robots.
Other intelligent weapons units can also be seen in previous cartoons, such as the Fort Robot:
Judging from the animation, this robot has a fairly strong high-altitude shooting ability.
The planes of the human forces were shot down directly.
Giant Robot:
There seem to be a relatively large variety of giant robots, including titans in Tobion's official comics, D.Va giant mech monsters that attack South Korea in the story. But the difference in image is not too big.
Of the several main classes of the Wisdom Weapon, the fortress is already the hero of the game. Is it possible for other intelligent weapons to become new heroes? Yes, anything is possible. The overwatch illustration cover that was previously exposed, Meat Meat also wrote an analytical article:

Notice this smart weapon on the left side of the screen:
The bright red light indicates that this is most likely a character of the villain's wisdom weapon. Another role to look forward to.
The whole decisive battle, on the one hand, there are 4 classes of intelligent weapons, the fortress is responsible for ground output, the turret robot is airborne, the giant robot siege propulsion, there are aircraft in the air, it can be said that a complete set of three-dimensional combat capabilities is quite complete. Coupled with the amazing recovery ability of the fortress robot, the robot is not afraid of life and death, will not tire, only know the terrible characteristics of killing, and the difficulty of winning this war can be imagined.
In terms of length, this issue of the WatchMan Miscellaneous First introduces these contents for everyone, tomorrow Nubani continues to bring you the next part of the final fortress plot analysis and interpretation, we will continue to analyze and interpret the animation plot, the human troops in the final battle, and some lace easter eggs. Stay tuned.
