Overwatch speculation that’s really more ‘i wonder if blizzard will release more lore for the rest of the year’ than anything else.

I still really want to see some follow up/what happened next to retribution, I think it’s…reasonably likely with some wishful thinking we might get something at the end of the event/close to that that’s either:

Mccree continuing his ‘thats where it all started to go wrong’ narration from the end of the event talking about how it kept going wrong/why he left and why he stuck around after Venice (cause if they play what Gabriel’s doing straight Jesse stuck around a good long time out of hope/loyalty before he couldn’t take it anymore) and, probably guven the format of the latest shorts, whether he’s going to answer the recall and come back. And this would be a logical place to put this and continue their ‘answering recall’ shorts.

Or

The debrief dialogue from the trailer/teasers is from something larger and wasn’t only recorded for promotional stuff. If it’s this (and I almost think that’s more likely cause we may have already seen stuff that clues us in to it existing) I would think it would have some sort of ‘reveal’ in it that somewhat explain why although blackwatch goes under investigation (cause that ship has sailed) Gabriel seems to obtain some personal forgiveness and remain on good terms/technically operating blackwatch even though they are “suspended” by the time of uprising.

To my mind that’s either likely to be: figured out Moira is a spy and did the only thing he could to get them all out without her realising he’d sussed her (as laid out in @segadores-y-soldados great post here). Or. ‘moiras been helping me with this genetic stuff and I think a side effect is the urge to murder people’. I’m interested to see what they do over the event (I could see us getting a small debrief file off genji and Moira at the week/2 week mark if they were leading up to this)

Obvious third option: no more lore until next year’s archives event.
