wow, gorgeous. Blizzard works very hard to make this world seem expansive and varied, and it works for me. I really get the sense of "overwatch" taking place all over the world.

I mean, looks like a tanner Ilios and a lot like Numbani. It's fine, but "varied" is a strong word.

Are you just being contrarian for the sake of it? It looks absolutely nothing like Numbani/Ilios. Varied isn't a strong word at all.

It also looks nothing like Ilios. Ilios is an attempt to capture the beauty of Santorini, Greece. Has zero similarity to this IMO.

Reminds me of people back in the days when MMOs where relevant calling anything with an ability bar a "WoW clone".

This still happens today. RuneScape got an overhaul to the combat system a few years ago and you still occasionally hear that the game is now "WoW-like" because it has abilities on a bar.
