@alexsteacy Same thing happened with Matilda Smedius, the VA for Brigitte in Overwatch. She didn't deserve any of the harassment she got for voicing Brig. And it was balance problems she was getting all the **** for! I don't understand that thought process whatsoever.

xqc literally is one of the dumbest people ive had the misfortune of talking to (overwatch) every clip i see of him is either a garbage take from his sheltered life, him screaming like a retard, or stuttering to the point im sure hes having an actual stroke. man has issues

@Campbell__duo yes both corporations suck and the gaming industry has deep rooted problems but more trans representation is a good thing, im not sure how it wouldn't be as long as it's handled well??? i made this comparison specifically bc of overwatch's dismal lack of pride related content

@yellowrochi The Overwatch League's in a bit if a problem with Blizzard's scandal since that got rid of most of their top sponsors lol. Things are just not looking good for them

@Idiosynthetic Do the countless people on the Overwatch forums who credit Paladins' amount of content and counterplay also count as **** takes to you? Cause you're in the minority here. Hence, by your own logic, you're the one with the **** take. Not us. Does Paladins have problems? Of course.

@damiel_smith @SnoopyG7 cod is boring but overwatch and diablo are very good games that i love dearly (well at least diablo). I think if they fix their problems/rehire and restructure, we should forgive them seeing as they'd be completely different people.

Got back to this non exsistent energy mode, idk why. I guess cause I slightly changed schedule, but will fix it and then get back to streaming asap! Thinking between road to pro in overwatch!! and nfs heat, far cry 2, 3 and primal (6 if it is out by then) or js1,2,3 and more :o

@AaronQ13Fox What issue do you have with eSports? Hell, even ESPN has had Overwatch League on their channels. eSports are a thing. Sorry Aaron, but this just a wrong take.

While it's true lately I've been doing a lot of Overwatch, that doesn't mean I've abandoned other franchises I love. Soon, I'll be doing more FE3H , Digimon, Crash Bandicoot, HotS etc... too! But of course I'll continue wit OW as well!

@OWAnonymous_ There are tons of annoying or broken things in Overwatch. It’s just a matter of which one is the most annoying or broken at the current time.

Real talk, @riotgames wouldn't fixing autofill help fix the dodging and griefing issues a lot? Maybe try something like Overwatch has in their role queue? Idk... But sucks now griefers have more power than ever...

@swishbuzzroar I feel that a lot. I've never played Apex, but I had the same problem in Overwatch. I generally know how/when I suck lol. I don't need some ******* also telling me about it, and unfortunately most of the judgement you receive online is judgemental and not helpful

@Doomhammer76 I'd rather play Halo, WOW, Diablo, Overwatch or fighting games with friends. Idk I'm not into a new live service where I have to learn all the lore and corale people. Idk stuff like that seems so damn generic to me. I have Gears if I want to scratch that itch.

@astroshiii Facts. I absolutely hate playing healer sometimes on overwatch because of this exact problem

@Ninja305011 @OWAnonPolls @OWAnonymous_ Yeah, that was the issue. Without the context, I thought you were saying there are still plenty of "memey" overwatch channels.

@__CS11 @PlayStation Eh, Overwatch was a live service and got out 3 per year (used to, at least), so long as other thing are added in between heroes, then it should be fine tbh.

State of @PlayOverwatch 20 QP Classic played, 20 games lost. I'm uninstalling this piece of trash game now for the last time. Gj #Overwatch team for failing to fix a broken and toxic game for over 4 years.

@onlykatakuri @FreeLoLmemes1 No. It’s gonna be like Overwatch where people can literally say derogatory terms and just be a **** in general and not get in trouble. Chat is fine

@Scoobster19 @TheGregAlba @Nintendo Hyrule Warriors, Monster Hunters, Fortnite, Apex Legends, Rocket League, Overwatch, Heck Probably even Crash Bandicoot. The only 2 third party games to run well on a Nintendo Switch is Minecraft+Fall Guy and even Fall Guys isn’t out on the Nintendo Switch yet.

While I'm on the topic, why is it so hard to avoid abusive players in Overwatch? You have a 3 slots maximum for avoiding players, and that only lasts for 1 week. That's not enough time for a verbally abusive jerk to learn the error of his ways. I don't understand the point

If blizzard gave us a minigame in the login screen while we wait I'm sure complaints would be fewer when there is an extended maintenance, oh wait there is #Overwatch right? #Warcraft @BlizzardCS

@snowypoutine I support returning to Overwatch. While yes there is tension around the creation company, the employees of that company who are still there and are not a part of the group causing the trouble will still need to have jobs come tomorrow, and not all of them can jump ship.

RUSTAGE
(@danielrustage) reported
@bonecage yeah there were loads! the only issue was none of it was really supported by valve so it never got super big. comp is either 6v6 or 9v9(one of each class) - there's plenty TF2 pros that then moved on to overwatch, valorant etc

@violetgil @rabbidluigi Regardless of what execs at Activision think about the financial potential of these series, they are still the active license holders. Every penny spent on Crash/Spyro/Overwatch goes into AB's pocket and that's just the way it is. No corporation says "we don't want your money".

(@_Vampragon43_) reported
@Idiosynthetic Sure it has bugs, but I find it especially poetic that you're talking about the balance of Paladins when the games you're praising are League and Overwatch, games with notoriously terrible balance problems. Far worse than Paladins.
