@Space_Dragon14 @PlayOverwatch This game is set years in the future. Bastion is just supposed to stay broke and old looking for ever? Why wouldn’t overwatch fix him up?

@PatStaresAt Didn't you whale on Overwatch though? Or does it being a live service game make it not count? Isn't Diablo 3 still getting live service though? Pat, wha-

i mean i didn't have faith in it anyway, they fully broke overwatch 1 years ago ago so hard to think they can fix it... but it's a broader issue with hero shooters anyway, maybe it will balance out... i fully completely doubt it will

I think Overwatch 2 should just have every hero just be super broken so no one can complain about not having a good hero

Overwatch 2 pivoted to 5v5 because not enough players wanted to play Tank; the issue is that now Tank looks so bad in OW2 that I don’t want to play it (despite being a tank player). Meanwhile, I feel like players not wanting to play tank was a symptom of the game… 1/2

@vix_OW i assume a beta is coming out feb for blizzcon so it won’t even be a problem but if not they should already have a solution like a separate client for pro overwatch

@StrangelyEnt I'm still thoroughly confused about the whole Overwatch 2 thing in general, since it looks on the surface to just... be the same thing? I assume it's an issue of the original being limiting to work on or something? Destiny had that problem I believe.

What is one of the problems in Overwatch? Damage creep. What are they doing for Overwatch 2? MOAR DAMAGE!! (Sombra + Bastian rework)

@corobonii @PlayOverwatch yeah i know i havent played overwatch in weeks because of it. but either way, im trying to say the devs are intentionally making every hero broken so they all balance each other out. i think the devs care, but literally everyone else in blizz doesnt.

I get the point of Overwatch 2. You get to make major changes to the whole game and hopefully keep the same players. The problem is, the main game went through nonstop changes for its entire run. That makes this just feel like a big new patch. It's #MalibuStacy with a new hat.

When I clean out my TS3+new pc. I only had Overwatch and nrass mod. I didn't re tweak my game by changing the new graphics card yet cause I was still trying to figure it out. It didn't lag at all. As long Overwatch mod is reseting stuck Sims cause of bad optimization, it's fine.

More I see it, more I honestly think that Overwatch 2, is just a 60 dollar patch for issues in Overwatch 1.

I think what the Overwatch Developers are trying to do is make literally every character extremely broken instead of worrying about ultimate balance. who knows? #Overwatch
