Personally my biggest complaint about Ashe is that she doesnât seem to really exist on a larger scale. Sheâs the Deadlock Gang and she goes way back with Mccree and thatâs it. Iâm not saying she needs to join Talon or go traveling, but I think a big part of why people are put off by her is that she doesnât seem to play a part in any of the bigger conflicts.
By bigger conflicts, I mean:
Talon vs Overwatch (obvious)
Human vs Omnic (pretty much everybody with an opinion on Omnics also all the omnics themselves)
Science for Good vs for Progress (Symmetra, Lucio, Moira, Mercy, Orisa)
Anything with a major influence on the Nation/World
In comparison to the rest of the Overwatch cast, Ashe doesnât really play into any of these bigger themes. Iâm not saying she has to join Overwatch or Talon, but she and the Deadlock gang just donât seem to be major players on any national or world stage. Sheâs just a spoiled rich girl running around with a bunch of paid goons around the American Southwest. She doesnât have any real goal when it comes to the bigger issues.
These problems would actually not be too difficult to fix. Just give Ashe some voice lines with more characters than just Mccree, that would fix the âfeeling isolatedâ problem real quick. And what she says in those voice lines could easily fix the rest of the problems.
Zarya: Youâre omnic friend will betray you one day, criminal.
Ashe: Bobâs more than a friend to me. Heâs family.
Ashe: You were a part of Los Muertos? Iâve had âŚdealings with them before. Very unpleasant dealings.
Sombra: Donât take it personally, itâs not like you lost anything you couldnât replace, Elizabeth
Soldier 76: Deadlock was supposed to be cleaned up a long time ago.
Ashe: They certainly tried their best.
Ashe: Iâd love to have you in my gang
Bastion: beep bwoo beep bwoop?
Orisa: I am not interested in a life of crime. Sorry.
