If my skins and stats don’t appear for Overwatch 2 I swear to god…. Over 300 hours with Moira would be lost, including ALL of her skins which I had collected AND the cute spray that took me years to earn and literally all of her cosmetics. Left the game hoping it was a glitch

@PlayOverwatch @Blizzard_Ent I’m currently having problems with the game Overwatch 2, with it saying I’m playing the trial of Overwatch 2 and not the base game. It’s just not letting me in and saying the trial is not playable at this time even though I’m just trying to play.

Pretty sure I can't play Overwatch 2 because I have to link a phone number to my account. This is stupid because I haven't had phone service in like a year. So now I can't play this game even though I bought the original Overwatch @PlayOverwatch @Blizzard_Ent

I am happy to report that Overwatch 2 is literally just Overwatch, again. With all the same issues. People still don't know how to play for OBJs. Characters still feel awkwardly/poorly balanced. All the highlights you'd expect from a team based FPS made by Blizzard.
