In 2017, a gamer and Overwatch forums user called Tyrone posted a series of highly specific feet-related complaints and bizarre requests, including a "shoe removing emote" and for the devs to "stop adding unnecessary shoes." In one post, Tyrone makes his case by arguing that when one stands up and looks down, they see their own feet, yet in Overwatch this is not the case. These hilariously weird posts have recently resurfaced on Twitter thanks to @snkykun, whose tweet about Tyrone gained 1.8 million views and 49.1 thousand likes. Let's take a moment to remember and appreciate the foot-obsessed Overwatch legend known as Tyrone.
Hundreds of people on Twitter replied in the thread with reaction memes and “let him cook” jokes.
I wonder what Tyrone is up to these days? Did the devs ever take his requests to heart? Is he still posting to the Overwatch forums? Does he shake is head in disapproval at the sight of shoe-clad feet in video games to this day? One of the great mysteries of our times.
