so today me and @yqueerymir were thinking about the Lucio: in concert poster in Overwatch and were like oh yeah let’s buy it as a poster
turns out that not only does that not exist, but the image isn’t online anywhere ???? why ??????????
so we took the most logical course of action and went in game with all the settings on ultra and screenshotted it. this was not easy mind you, as my laptop was running the game at TWO (2) FPS and froze every time we hit printscreen
but y’know, we perserved and finally managed to get a good screenshot and then loaded it into an online poster maker, thinking we’d done a good job
oh no. there was more.
the image was 62mb and the upload limit was 50mb. so of course we then had to very fucking carefully edit it down, using a MCFUCKING LAPTOP TRACKPAD no less, and 2 HOURS after we began, we finally had a finished image
so we were like oh yeah buy a big poster, and selected the biggest size. as english majors, we mcfucking suck at maths, and selected 60″x40″. we then bought 3 copies and went wow 2 hours of work well done
and then we googled the size.
as it turns out, 60 INCHES IS FIVE FOOT TALL. WE MADE A LUCIO POSTER THAT’S ONLY 3 INCHES SHORTER THAN LUCIO.
TL;DR we set out to make a poster and ended up with a 5 foot tall monstrosity and the feeling that we have played god
edit: if anyone wants the image because legit it is nowhere on the internet feel free to ask and i’ll upload it
here is the magnificence that is the lucio poster found in numbani that me and @yqueerymir turned into a poster (if you want to see that saga of not knowing what measurements are it’s here)
feel free to use it on whatever you want but if you source us because we spent hours editing this it would be greatly appreciated :)
