We clawed, we chained our hearts in vain We jumped, never asking why We kissed, I fell under your spell A love no one could deny Don't you ever say I just walked away I will always want you I can.
She doesn't for one moment come across as being sincere. Dunno 'bout you, but that's a too obviously fake performance. Crocodile tears. I haven't seen the parodies, but this one is almost already a parody of itself. Comes in like a wrecking ball indeed! Wrecking her own music video with an unconvincing attempt at emoting sorrow. Almost as if one eye is crying, and the other is gauging the reaction.

Why don't I go for it, as normally I am a sucker for this kind of thing? First off, pardon me, I am biased against the very idea of shaven buzz-cut looks. Not that this is what she sports here, but it is, to me, just a glorified version of the same thing. Long hair is a thousand times better than short hair. Am me myself more an UNLEASHED fan. So, laugh at me, but I look at this, and wince. Okay, Hannah's hair was a wig, but still.
Other people are on about the nudity, but that slips past me, all I can think 'She shouldn't have done that.' And it isn't only that. She has done much to alienate her fans, shock 'em, and shock their mommies too, and while I am not a prude, far from it, scoundrel that I am, I am a purist, and she's been tainting her own image, so I am not exactly a fan of the new look. My main interest here was the controversy surrounding the music video. I generally do not watch music videos before having them on DVD, as it would spoil the experience, the surprise, so much lie in anticipation, but here, I did get involved, and left her a message of support on VuClip, I well remember. 100% enthralled I am not, but I'd be damned if I'd let the spirit of freedom in creativity be overrode because people are objecting to some nudity.
Which, by the way, is very tame, 'scandalous' only because she is everybody's kid sister's idol. But, hell, she doesn't even take those boots off,:) so where's the nudity?
(kidding!) Another big problem for me is the raw sound, it's kinda almost a screech, I guess not really, but I found it off-putting. As I've admitted, I'm not fond of her hairstyle, it's too gamine, and that sounds almost cute, so it's too boyish, too plain ol' stupid geeky boy, that's nailing it a bit better. Yes, yes, yes, the body is of course not boyish, but the 'naked head' is my concern.

It's not 'put some clothes on, Miley' from me, but 'grow out your locks again, Miley' so feel free to laugh at this old uncool dude. What I'm trying to say though, is that this insincere-looking contrived teary bit sounds off, way off. Even if I didn't have my 'petty complaint' nothing could fix that.
But there's more than just that. Laughably ridiculous the licking of the sledgehammer, she is trying so hard to shake off her Walt Disney image that she is making a spectacle of herself. Nudity properly done is fine, I am not faulting her flesh, or performance, but, Miley, do not cheapen yourself with desperately overt, if poorly-executed, displays of simulated oral sex references. So apart from me coming across as 'Hair is a girl's crowning glory. To all blonde princesses, thou shalt not cut thine fine tresses,' I have now more or less stated that there is a whole lot more wrong here. But society only sees the nudity.
I see a spoilt brat looking very hard like she's trying to cry over a spilt ice-cream cone.
. Attaches to a surface, allowing Wrecking Ball to swing around the point of contact. If the line is more than 6 meters long and Wrecking Ball moves closer to the claw, the line retracts and stays retracted. If cast in combat mode, Wrecking Ball enters Roll.
Knock back and damage is only applied when Wrecking Ball is powered-up (shown via a 'fireball' effect). Knocks enemies back up to 10 meters. Wrecking Ball is only powered-up while going at least 15 m/s. If Wrecking Ball is slowed by more than 25%, his swings cannot power-up at all. Described as 'witty and conniving,' Hammond is capable of speech, just not in any human language. His mech (named 'Wrecking Ball') translates his comments into English, via a soundboard. The mech itself is equipped with a minor AI.
Is the one individual Hammond can converse with normally as they're both animals.Horizon Lunar Colony “Journal Entry 1963-4. Harold Winston. Status update on Specimen 8. By now, we're all used to our super-intelligent gorillas on the colony.
But the hamster.we've named him Hammond.continues to be one of our biggest surprises. Even though he's grown from the genetic modification, we have more trouble keeping track of him than any of the other animals. Somehow, he managed to get out of his cage again. It took us days to find him. I can't help but wonder what it is he's looking for when he gets out there. He's shown impressive problem solving skills and adaptability to new situations. And he's overcome all the challenges that have been placed in front of him.
I for one can't wait to see what trouble the little guy gets up to next.„ Doctor. Hammond in HLC gearIn one of the many experiments carried out at, animals were given genetic therapy to assess their adaptation to extended periods of habitation on the moon. As an unexpected side effect, several of them exhibited exceptional growth in physical size and brain function. While most of the test subjects were gorillas or other primates, there were some exceptions, including a hamster designated Specimen 8, but whom the staff named 'Hammond'.
He was contained in a large cage in his own room.Like the others, Hammond's intelligence grew. He demonstrated impressive problem solving skills and adaptability, and he became more curious about the world around him. Much to the puzzlement and amusement of the scientists, Hammond would frequently escape into different parts of the moon base. The staff had more trouble keeping track of Hammond than any of the other test subjects, and in at least one case, it was days before he was returned to his holding area. Though they'd always find him and return him to his cell, they never figured out the true purpose behind his nightly escapades.
What they didn't know was that Hammond was busy teaching himself the skills of a mechanic, which would soon come in handy.In time, Hammond became good friends with one of the gorillas,. Hammond plans his escapeBefore the base's fall, Hammond escaped from his cage. Noted his absence, but few within the base gave it much heed. Hammond possibly escaped into the base's ventilation system, as in the same timeframe, noted strange noises coming from the system. The colony was eventually thrown into chaos when some of the gorillas rose up against the human scientists and took control. Not all of the animals participated, however, and Specimen 28, taking the name 'Winston', was making a plan to escape to Earth. Hammond sensed his opportunity, prototyped a basic build plan using toys in his room, then finalized his build onto a blueprint with sticky notes.
Ignored in the uprising, he converted an empty fuel pod into a makeshift escape capsule with a claw arm and tether, and secretly hitched it to the bottom Winston's craft as the gorilla blasted off from Launch Bay 14. As the two entered Earth's atmosphere, the tether broke; while Winston landed at, Hammond landed in a different location: the wasteland of the Outback, on the outskirts of.One of the primates would eventually break down the door of Hammond's room for whatever reason, but by that time the hamster was already gone.
The JunkersHammond modified his escape pod to become the cockpit of his own mech, which he built around it, to enter the lucrative mech battle arena of the. Working his way up the ranks amongst the, the competitor known as 'Wrecking Ball' went from contender to champion and had fun winning numerous times, though the pilot's identity remained a mystery to all. As much fun as he had, Hammond never considered himself to be a Junker. Gathering his winnings, Hammond was able to upgrade his mech enough to survive the dangerous trek out of the Junker-controlled Outback. Hammond leaves JunkertownNow free to travel and do as he pleases, Hammond is exploring the world and finding new adventures along the way. PresentYears later, was able to retrieve information from Horizon's still-operating monitoring system.
Hammond was noted to be missing from the base.

'Ball Guy' concept art.The concept for Wrecking Ball actually originated early in Overwatch's development, during the game's original character design phase, as 'Ball Guy,' a spherical robot created while exploring circular robot designs, which stemmed from an early unused concept of wearing a bomb-shaped suit. Began designing this version of the hero as a 'junkyard magnet bot,' a robotic tank hero with a kit themed around magnetism, including abilities that allowed him to attract and repel bullets. At around the same time, the concept artists were doing preliminary ideation for a 'cute hero,' which included several prototype designs of robots, rodents, and a robotic monkey, as well as precursors to; this same ideation phase would eventually produce. Eventually, these two lines of ideation would converge on the idea of a hamster in a hamster ball, and Arnold Tsang illustrated the first iteration of Wrecking Ball, as a robotic hamster piloting a quadrupedal robot that could transform into a sphere. The first iteration of Wrecking Ball.The illustration was emailed out and clicked with the designers, but this new direction proved to be controversial within the Overwatch development team, with some loving the idea and others believing it would ruin the game.
In 2014, Jeff Kaplan, and had a disagreement over the hero's inclusion, with Dumoret falling into the latter camp. The discussion resulted in Brill scheduling a meeting in 2024 to determine whether or not Wrecking Ball had ruined the game, and that if he had, he would be removed from the game at that point. Though the team fully intended to eventually release the hero, they didn't feel it was the right time, and so Wrecking Ball remained shelved until some time in 2017, when he was brought back up and they started seriously discussing his implementation.Revisiting the concept, they decided that a mechanical hamster couldn't be as cute as an actual hamster. Using Tracer as a reference point they produced a number of hamster concepts to hone in on a specific style that suited Overwatch's 'East meets West' aesthetic, ultimately deciding on a design that fell in between. According to Kaplan, they also deliberated over Hammond's size, eventually deciding that he should be '-sized.' From there Wrecking Ball went through various design iterations with mechanics that focused on rolling around on the ground and down slopes to gain momentum and smash into enemies.
