Hey, @Blizzard_Ent, I know things are rough with the launch of #Overwatch2 , but can we at least play Overwatch 1 if we own it until you get these errors figured out? 🥺

@PlayOverwatch This is just a quick request for after you fix everything with the servers. Could you please make it people on PS4 and PS5 be able to play with keyboard and mouse? Like how we were able to play with a controller in Overwatch 1. Sending it again until someone from staff responds.

Largely, my problems with Overwatch fall down to, horrible monetization (wrapped into ****** cosmetics), qol changes, and the 5v5 change.

@aaronkellerOW @PlayOverwatch @YourOverwatchYT can any of you guys help me with logging into Overwatch 2 servers? I haven’t gotten the chance to even login at all and it’s starting to get frustrating. I’m on PlayStation and had the game since 2016. Thanks.

@zUnHoLySkittle @TheActMan_YT @SennySupreme That free supported content ran out after 2.5 years in Overwatch 1's case. Playerbase complaining about a content drought in a game that wasn't making money. No one buying Loot Boxes. Everyone has 80+% of the in-game items. $40 1-time purchase can't sustain a Live Service Game.

@AltHistoryHub @CRISPY_WRITES What I don’t understand is that overwatch 2 is just one big glorified update. A generational one. So wtf do they have so many problems running a game that’s been out since 2016

@BlizzardCSEU_EN Hello, I purchased the Overwatch 2: Watchpoint pack during the summer but it doesn’t reflect in Overwatch 2. Is this an ongoing issue that is currently being resolved?

*Plays a few games of Overwatch 2 and gets up for not even a minute and sits back down* BAM I am in a queue with 400 players ahead of me. WTF I left the game running by itself for a minute and I am having to wait again. @Blizzard_Ent @PlayOverwatch Fix your cash grab game!
