Yeah all over the world was a bit hyperbolic, most were american by default some pointed specifically out they were from sweden and Finland for some reason

It wasn’t even a complaint, it was more like everyone was praising blizzard for being so culturally appropriate and 100% accurate (lol) and i was just mentioning that it’s not true for this character.
Before overwatch i played team fortress 2 and i was used to a way more wholesome community and somehow never thought that it doesn’t carry over.
I thought it’s really funny when i made a post that it shouldn’t be possible for Reinhardt and mercy to get out of her ult and as far as i remember no one agreed and i caught a lot of shit for even bringing it up. They later changed that and no one seemed to complain ever about it. I think at this point i realised that reddit isn’t really for me

Why google when you know things.

It depends. People from southern germany would understand it mostly. But the more north you go the less they understand it. People from austria tend to understand it pretty well. But we have a lot od different accents as well. But it also depends on the accent. Some thick accent is really hard to understand.

When overwatch was pretty new i checked out the overwatch subreddit. I saw a post about how good the voice lines are in arabic of the newly launched hero Ana was, and their whole interaction with phara. Other people pointed out how accurate other voiclines of different languages were. So i took a shot at it and said that it’s weird that the mercy character who is from from Zurich, Switzerland speaks german, and not swiss german.
People were shitting their asses about my comment. People explained to me that german and swiss german is the same thing, and people in Switzerland speak german. I respectfully explained that i lived in zurich, switzerland for 25 years and people simply do not speak german with each other.
That did not matter tho and people from all over the world gave their two cents about what they think they know about the place where i grew up in.
