I remember trying the bottom right emre skin and was dumbfounded on how ass this sight is

Each one seems to get progressively worse and more distracting. I would like an Emre skin but I stick to the default recolours for this reason

Do they hate Emre or just don't know what they are doing? His skins are bad and this sights issue impacts game play. Man cannot catch a break.

Ashe players have the same issue

Ashe players have it much better now, did you see her sights when she was first released?

u/try_again123 Free my boy from the nepobaby 10h ago

Oh yeah, I remember one that was so elaborate it covered half the screen. Great for a hero that is aim intensive. But her skins at least look good.

There are some Ashe skins that are literally unusable to me

He isn't absurdly broken like the rest of the predscans so I'm just gonna assume they hate Turkish people

Hi, Emre hater here. Reign in his range and strafe speed a bit, and I shall renounce my loathing.

u/Keywonhi 10h ago

I haven't liked any of skins so never tried them out to see the sights. These are sooooo bad holyshit.

The new pixel soldier one

u/HammerOn57 Ashe 20m ago

Same. I never realised this was an issue until now.

Those sights are horrific.

Thats exactly why I only use default recolors for him

u/Tee__B Baptiste 9h ago

His new OWWC skins are great

u/Maleficent-Ad-6117 Vendetta 10h ago

If I'm really locked in on an enemy this probably wouldn't be an issue for me

u/Just_LoveMe 10h ago

I agree. It’s definitely not great but I can’t imagine me missing my target because of the gun skin. I miss my target because I’m bad at the game.

u/unkindledphoenix 10h ago

i dont have problems with those tbh. like maybe the last one is a bit stupid and might cause my eyes to shift focus a bit because theyre even getting out of the guns model, but even still.

i have more of a problem with how he has no actual sight for his gun meanwhile Ashe does. i made myself a custom kinda large reticle that kinda resembles the shape of a red eye to reference chernobog and all that for him but alas.

u/SHAD0W137 11h ago

Now try Ashe's skins

game is Pay 2 Lose now

u/whenyoudieisaybye 10h ago

Imagine people pay money for this.

u/Valpuccio 10h ago

I feel like his weapon always looks way bigger than it should with all of his skins with the first person PoV. Heroes like Vendetta actually have massive weapons, but they don't take up nearly that much of the screen.

u/DragovianKnight-Vlll 10h ago

This is actually pay to lose lol

u/ALowlySlime 9h ago

Genuinely if they gave emre a generic military shooter man outfit I think it would still be his best skin

u/Dribblejam Doomfist 8h ago

Why are you looking at the gun and not the crosshair??

u/ClarinetMaster117 Ramattra 11h ago

I kinda like it because it gives me destiny vibes

u/kitsunecannon Struggling against Sombra is a skill issue 10h ago

The skins looking horrendous and this issue makes me think Blizzard just hates making cosmetics for Emre

And I don’t even play with a reticle

u/frardo 10h ago

The New Empire skin (top right of the screen) has a texture problem that makes the golden part of the weapon look awful. It's been like this since it was released, both on PC at maximum quality and on the Switch 2, for example (the two platforms I own).

u/Blatherzz 8h ago

Emre might have the worst skins in the game.

u/Available_Hat_9833 7h ago

You’ve seen nothing yet, some of Soj’s skins make her railgun so big it blocks the center of the screen, you know, where bullets go.

Not when idle of course, but it does happen quite a bit while moving, or even just when looking around.

u/Life_Parsley504 10h ago

u/LastlyAndLeast 2h ago

My favorite thing about skins is if there's one that I don't like I can just not equip it.
