I'm sorry the episode is a touch late, a plague has fallen upon my house. (Not COVID thankfully, but still :T )
I don't forget to heal Genji because of the Bystander Effect, I refuse to heal Genji because I will not follow him into death.

The Bystander Effect is a fairly well-documented phenomenon that states when people are in a crowd, they are less likely to offer help to people in need. There are a number of reasons for this. One might be the assumption that someone else will take responsibility. Another might be that we tend to look to other people to gauge how serious a situation is. When no one is reacting, we assume that the situation isn't dire. But how does this effect show up in games like Overwatch or League of Legends? Can MMOs like World of Warcraft help us overcome the effect?
