    It's just standard cape shit. Liberal optimism is a hero saves the world so I don't have to care!

      A virus caused killbot factories to start printing omnicidal killbots. Each country's military was getting owned by the killbots so Overwatch was formed by soldiers from every military and some randos to shut down the factories. They suceeded, then became the world police. Robots were made to live beneath the cities and subject to "Detroit:Become Human" level discrimination. 10 years later, Overwatch was disbanded after a group betrayed them and bad press. 10 years later, some of the members came back to reform Overwatch.

          I don't know if that ever comes up. The whole thing started with "There's a huge expansive world we wrote, this is just a tiny portion of it", and then it turned out no, they were just generating characters to appeal to the largest audience possible and then inventing the world/backstory from that.

            When corporate calls for a copy-paste damaged goods femme fatale waifu with an exotic skin color and a corrupted backstory again. brrrrrrrrrrrr
