i’d like to know where any of the “gabriel reyes is the boss from hell” stuff spawns from because have you listened to his actual voicelines? yeah he sounds kinda rough but like 1/3 of his lines are dead guy puns and one is him purring “haven’t i… killed you somewhere before?” like its the worlds best pickup line. gabriel seems like the kinda boss that lets you stop by a pizza place on the way back as long as you get extra breadsticks. he seems like the kinda boss that’ll let you skirt around the deadline bc he knows you’re exhausted and nobody ever turns anything in on time around this place anyways. made the blackwatch uniforms armor and whatever the hell else you wanna wear, he doesn’t give a damn.
JACK is the one with the “you didn’t make the cut” and the “thats SIR to you” lines like ???? how yall always getting this backwards
Reaper will also compliment good shots while 76 says things like “If you’re trying to impress me you’re going to have to try harder” or “is that supposed to impress me?”
the best evidence that Gabriel Reyes was a good boss that was at least SOMEWHAT laid back is literally just all of Jesse McCree’s character. The man laughs when he melees. LAUGHS. He was recruited into a black ops unit at age 17 by Reyes and that could have easily become a harder, gritty character but it created a man who’s almost 40 who’s deadass spectacular w/ only 6 shots, who wears a BAMF belt in canon and has since he joined.
