not to mention that there's 30 new skins. with the f2p live service model rewarding battlepass and skins, it really feels like this is the final nail for overwatch. blizzard took 3 yrs making skins just to monetize their dead game that they're reviving by going free to play

I had over 500 hours in competitive before season one was over. I cosplayed as Tracer multiple times. I ran the streams and made the graphics for the early Toronto Overwatch Beer League matches. Not excited for Overwatch 2 and Blizzard's issues is the primary reason.

@Huevoasesino2 @JulesOW_ Haha you're right. I remember there being a "game sabotage / toxicity" thing you could check as well? Only thing that Overwatch (the game) would need to implement is adding audio recordings from the game to the review. But that would probably cause legal issues with GDPR etc.

@Chaosxsilencer My main issue when I played the closed Beta is it just feels like a larger Overwatch 1 update vs. a separate title as they advertise. Visually the game does look a little bit better as well, but I was personally disappointed even with lower expectations

I think three new heroes at launch of Overwatch 2 is fine. Good even. It might get chaotic if too many more came at once. I really only care that they keep up a regular cadence like a normal live service game.

@jamesperrott1 @PlayOverwatch Sorry were you expecting 40 new maps and new characters to play? You say they are not working on pve when that is the main focus of overwatch 2. And they are not doing anything. Have you seen all of the content they have showed us. They gave us a ******* release date dude.

It's nice to hear that Overwatch 2 is going to be a live service. It's almost like that's what the first one should've been instead of letting it die slowly to jump onto overwatch 2. listening to these devs talk is already annoying me

Starting the Overwatch 2 reveal stream by saying "Live Service, Free to Play game" over and over again is a terrible start and completely tone deaf.

The Overwatch competitive meta will always be funny to me because of how the devs completely doomed their game with a single broken character that they waited a year to try and balance and when they finally did they made its ability even more broken

@Ninjas_Hyper20 @Captain_Phyco @Nibellion its overwatch 1.1, they were supposed to update overwatch 1 while developing the PVE which would be overwatch 2, but good ol papa jeff said **** that **** and didnt want to touch the game until the pve was done, due to a lack of content for a live service game, players left

@_Fantasticfaith @BrokeMusicEdkid @PlayOverwatch Hackers and smurfing is a big problem in Overwatch right now. A paywall does not solve that problem, they need to work on a good anti-cheat system.

Installed a bunch of new games on my Xbox like Overwatch, Splunky, and Crash Bandicoot. Gonna stream some of these one day for content value.

@BrokeMusicEdkid @PlayOverwatch Yeah hackers/smurfing will be a big issue. free to play was a bad idea should’ve made it like 20-30$ for overwatch owners and like 60$ for new players. I’ve never met someone who likes battle passes.

If Apex would add cross progression like Overwatch 2 and Fortnite and anyother sane live service game, i could sell my damn PS4 and get a PC.

Again, I am failing to understand why you needed to add a "2" to upcoming Overwatch content. You are making no structural changes to the service model, simply adding new content. Don't be surprised if it's not embraced as well as before.

Overwatch 1 needs a emergency fix, the fact that cree can counter a doom by existing drops me 100sr and puts me in a loss streak

@Garregrrt I really doubt it. Overwatch 2 is Overwatch but with balance changes that took them way to long to add and still has a bunch of unresolved issues and I doubt ppl will really care about the PVE at least in long term. Warzone 2 I also doubt because knowing the COD team

@TTVImWindow @OverwatchEU The characters looking the same isn’t a problem bro. What is a problem, is the characters playing the exact same as they did when overwatch stopped getting support

@Stu_InSomnia @The_Ant_17 Yes, plus entire state of play all correct and no errors, Overwatch 2 free to play, release date accurate of TLOUP1 and added PC emoji

Overwatch 2 going F2P means that it's gonna be riddled with microtransactions. Gotta love that "games as a service" business model!

Overwatch 2 battle pass gonna be 100% trash. And it’s Free to Play. **** i may not even download it. Smurfing and botting is gonna be so much easier in Overwatch now. Way to make an already bad problem with even worse.

@Nibellion Why are they still shitting out new heroes? It will only create more balance issues. I really would like game to finally have some sort of plot because we've been stuck with vague origin story and Overwatch almost, just about to, soon, in a moment getting together.
