    Would actually watch a 2 hour movie about Bastion and that bird
  • Even after all these years the concept of a robot with ptsd still makes me cry so hard

    These animated shorts are like a time capsule of how things used to be. Like hanzo’s scatter arrrow, the self-repair arm bastion used to access the memories of the Omnic War is no longer a part of his kit in OW2.

    Good work Mr.Woodpecker you just triggered a Vietnam flashback.

    He's so cute and peaceful except for when he gleefully blows my entire team to smithereens with no mercy after humming the victory tune

    6 years later, now realising the title last bastion, isnt just about bastion being the last of his kind but also a bastion in the sense of a last hope for omnics
  • I love how in 6:09 they put the last bastion right in the dead center between the city and the forest. It symbolizes that it has a choice, really clever of the animation team!

    Cinematic: Kind angel In-game: emotionless killing macine
  • A little birb snapped Bastion out of killing many many innocent lives. Thank the birb
  • @exiao3549
    love how everyone thought of this when they saw the wild robot trailer
  • @Armorion
    6 years later this is still one of if not the best animated short they've ever created
  • @tfiggs4312
    he was covered up with all that moss and grass because he was camping in the corner too long
  • @JotaP1n
    No dialogue, no facial expressions, all emotion. Still the best.
  • @yogcast133
    Still insane to me that this is one of the most respectful and tasteful portrayal of PTSD out there

    This character is literally the only reason why I played overwatch when I was younger
