@Romantica_Baby_ I would join you. Problem is that I haven't pushed myself to get involved in competition in a lot of games like Overwatch, League of Legends, and Five Nights at Freddy's. There has to be more drive to get me to join in 1 of the games.

@Blizzard_Ent It is very disappointing how overwatch 2 turned out. You re-skinned Overwatch and changed Hero's that DID NOT need any changes. Also the account linking is stupid, why I have to wait a year to fix the account? VERY upset with how this game turned out.

Seems I am a part of that small group of people enduring the seemingly endless (LC-208) error... I want to play Overwatch 2. I'm kind of fed up of GBO2 being one of the few games I have actual interest in.

It's crazy because I actually want to play Overwatch 2, but I literally can't because I keep getting "unexpected server errors" ever since maintenance last night. Not to mention all of the problems before last night. This launch has been wild #Overwatch2

@YourLeftNut8 @BlizzardCS @Alimonkey25 Think about it for like 2 seconds, gaming is getting incredibly more popular, and overwatch has won loads of awards, leading increased popularity for this game specifically. That's a **** load of people joining a server at the same time. If Sony had these issues launching PS5...

@BlizzardCS I haven't been able to login to Overwatch 2 all day today on my xbox one (LC-208). I was able to play last night before the maintenance, though. I did the link on disconnect and reconnecting my Xbox one, still nothing. No problems with my online connection as well.

I have realized, that I am going to have a problem even if I wanted to play overwatch 2. I have 2 accounts and my main account has my authenticator/number on it XD. I may have to remove and re add that to my vtuber account.

@battlenet Overwatch 2 disconnects with the LC-208 error whenever I merge my account. It works fine when it is not merged. Can you please tell me what’s going on?

@SScarletSlayer //It's not even account banning but literally them trying to fix it to where PC players have their issues fixed and not really giving 2 shits about console players. Literally NOTHING WAS BROKE in Overwatch 1 but they CHANGED EVERYTHING and... Screwed it up
