@HamburgerJack Saw someone say he was wrong for “race bending” WHITE Overwatch characters…which I didn’t understand at all, because I’ve never seen people get mad at people making boringly designed white characters poc especially considering ow has a diversity problem

@CriticalxMiss @imAVRL I don't see the issue with Genji unlocking early. His play loop isn't exactly hard to understand. Mei on the other hand is a pretty complicated hero if you don't know how to play Overwatch, her value comes from things that rely on game sense which new players won't have yet.

But then again, I've also got a lot of problems with Overwatch and a bias toward how TF2 handled balancing out classes by making use of different weapons instead of making 100 different variant characters of the same roles.

@Baconsandwic @BetancurBranden @kirawontmiss Ever watch those YouTube vids where cops get pulled over on DUIs and get charged? They're quite funny. It's not as easy as it used to be in the 90s and 80s to cover up anything within departments. Every shooting is a multiple department issue with many layers of overwatch to 1/2

@PlayOverwatch Drop overwatch league or at least stop balancing the have around them and fix role que at the start games will fill fast cause everyone wants to try new characters but role que will ruin the game again when everyone runs back to DPS

Been playing #Overwatch since launch, and now I can't register my phone number that I've had for years so I can play #Overwatch2 because it's not "post-paid"? Fix this! You're shutting out loyal players due to your new rules! @Blizzard_Ent @BlizzardCS

@imAVRL **** Blizzard for the SA stuff. Thats fair. But we already know that no one working at blizzard had any issue with the Overwatch team. They were the good boys. But you cant be mad at Blizzard and give Riot a pass at the same time.

@0wlGhost I think Overwatch is still fun but there's definitely big issues with it and I understand why people think it's a turn off, and Blizzard is a ****** developer so I get that as well. Idk how someone can be so blind to all of that.

@Kenkouart I don't play Overwatch, but as a Cricket customer, I'm nervous about what this implies for the future. What, my phone # isn't valid bc I use budget phone service? Even if the number got ported from Sprint, who I left bc they were trash? I'm so tired of poor people being excluded

@mizliz_ So I actually do not know my battle pass login, but I am still logged into my account on overwatch because I am on console. I have already sync everything to my account. When OW2 comes, do I have to know my login, or will I just immediately get in without having to know my login?

@Tathem29 That is so true. I understand people being kinda mad about kiriko in the bp but even that isn't realy a problem because you can still get her. I'm starting yo believe that the community dont even want overwatch 2.

@PlayApex Apex is trash. Fken lag even though I’m not far from server. I want to spend money on this game but there is no point because I can’t pay the game most of the time. Can’t wait for overwatch 2.

@ShaunNT I have a horrible feeling overwatch 2 might crash and burn. The whole game hasn't felt right to me in years..!

i want overwatch 2 to be good the only big problem in the way tho is the fact that blizzard cant stop being a terrible company

I feel like a significant part of the problems with Overwatch 2’s monetization would be solved by having excess BP levels give currency. Once you’ve got all the rewards any further levels would give currency. It wouldn’t solve everything, but at least it would solve part of it.

Overwatch 2 is getting the worst reviews I've seen for a live service game not named Halo Infinite. yikes.

I think the whole problem with Overwatch 2 is that it's Overwatch 1.

@thetalkyman @richterovertime I've stuck with TF2 because the game is enjoyable to play even with the current bot problem. Overwatch after 1 game I want to put my head through a wall in frustration.

The problem I have with support queues in #Overwatch is, you can literally do thousands of healing per minute and still lose horrendously. I understand it's just how games go sometimes but it does not feel good to have big numbers but feel no impact.

@PlayOverwatch Fix Overwatch 2 and launch it in 2023 with 2 tank system. We can wait.

listen i hate overwatch and i think blizzard deserves to go bankrupt, but i legitimately don't see a problem with this particular "controversy". Like, it's how you unlocked characters in the original game to my understanding, and at the very least it's going to curb smurfing

You guys won't be hearing much from until Sunday, but next week I'm gonna be doing quite a few streams. Going back to Crash 4, Overwatch 2, and I wanna see what's up with MultiVersus. Look forward to either 3 or 4 streams next week. Maybe also a stream of me learning Jack-o?
