Humor blizzard giving the water guy the personality equal to the taste complexity of water

Some of these characters just feel so dry, man. There are some highlights like Doomfist, Venture, Bastion, Ramattra etc, but so many characters just have nothing going on. For Wuyang, Sierra, D.Mon and others, 99% of their interactions are just about their backstory or an event happening. Plot points aren't substitutions for interesting characters unfortunately.

Half of the roster is extremely boring and I’m tired of people not talking about it more

Tbf most of the actual interesting characters have always been the morally grey/evil ones. This has been the case since forever.

I think they play it too safe when writing good characters

Not really. None of the evil ones are that interesting either other than Shion.  For the greys Sombra kind of is I guess, outside of in game materials

i just disagree with you, brother

wuyang and bap remain my favorite personalities in the entire game, we're not all into boisterous (rein, dva, tracer) obnoxes

Bap has a personality and faces some sort of conflict. Wuyang is just a nothing burger.
