In "Overwatch," most players will agree that Mei has one of the cutest voice lines. Interestingly, one of those was not developed by Blizzard. In fact, the studio admitted that it came from a recording accident.

According to Polygon, Mei's "Sorry, sorry, I'm sorry" is a voice line that the studio's writers didn't create, nor was it an idea that sprouted from their minds in the first place. That is because it was a product of a recording booth accident. Michael Chu, the senior game designer, explained that the actress (Zhang Yu) made a mistake and said "Sorry, sorry, sorry" afterward.

Chu admitted that, ironically, it became his favorite line from the aforementioned "Overwatch" hero. He even went to ask the sound engineer if it was captured. "Send that to me," he said. Chu revealed this during Blizzard's presentation at the Tribeca Games Festival.

In "Overwatch," players can activate a hero's voice line from time to time. They also have the option to change it according to their own preference. Voice lines, same as emotes and skins, are among the items acquirable from loot boxes. So far, Mei has one of the most interesting scripts in the game.

It is also worth noting that it is among the things players love about the game. VG247 reports that it works like a medium that lets players understand the attitude a specific hero has. Blizzard has even made an impressive job in making voice lines unique and interesting.

In related "Overwatch" news, players are still hoping for Doomfist's arrival to the game. It can be remembered that this hero has been heavily linked to a Hollywood actor named Terry Crews. The latter, on the other hand, has been expressing his desire to voice the supposed new hero. Unfortunately, Blizzard has been very shadowy lately, trying to hide everything that relates to the aforesaid character.
