@CeriStokes 1/ Often parental abdication on this issue is significant - so enlisting their overwatch is important but often ignored. The reality is that “some” teens will continue to vape in bathrooms & other clandestine locations on school property….

I forgot that I will be up early to take Nano to the vet. So I will cancel stream so I can fix everything beforehand and relax. Tomorrow we will do unpacking and this weekend we will be playing some overwatch or apex.

A year ago today I was banned from Competitive season 26 of Overwatch because neither WINE nor Overwatch would crash when I ran out of memory....

@FrymasterLov @MerrDawglol But bro almost every game has these problems, look at Overwatch a great game turned into **** cause of their creators teams. Everybody complains and nothing happens. They’ll listen when they want to, but to sit here and say you ain’t playing the game yea ok. 👍🏽

@Froundlol @apreston_photo @bethesda Wouldn't call them lazy, why cater to %5 of users for how little you would gain. Plus on top of that there's still development that goes into it. Overwatch and valorant don't have proper support cause it is technically a competitive advantage, or just technical issues from it.

@cybuuorg It almost felt a little like a cop out and that origin story could have been planning overwatch downfall or helping with it so that he could stick it to the people who were sometimes more of a problem

Had someone on overwatch say they don't like gays. I responded by asking why that was my teams problem. They responded with "because we would be cool friends" Homie, if the first thing you say to me is that you don't like gays, and my icon is a rainbow flag, what makes you

Not me subtweeting, but as I apparently am somehow still annoyed about a fandom I'm no longer in, the issue I have is that if they're changing the Overwatch lore to fit whatever OW2 is: this is a bad way to do it.

@BrandonEaston I think it’s moreso upsetting that there are so many talented artists and writers out there who feel broken up about what is now canon. They’re throwing away their works. One of the most beloved headcanons in Overwatch has been shot down and stomped on. (1/2)

@Davemaster84 @GrenadeQueen1 Valorant, Overwatch, Tarkov, Diablo, Path Of Exile, Rocket League. All I'm sure had there slee of issues early on. Point I was making is MOST games just release unfinished nowadays. Better to play em at a later date.

@valvesoftware When are ya'll gonna get on the cheating problem in CS:GO? whenever I do an overwatch case its always some absolute mongoloid who is just super obvious cheat wise. You DO NOT need us to verify they were cheating. give us cases where its actually questionable

@jaymar1337 @blu31ights @SideshowGaming Valorant did not exist as an already on going live service game. Overwatch does and has been in content drought for years. Its not an arguement. It should be fair to bring 5v5 to all at the same time or else community is playing catch up to those who had access.

@Mkmichael001 @AngeAlexiel @_XboxNews My guess is all the established multiplats. Crash, Spyro, COD, Diablo, Overwatch, etc. will remain multiplat but new IP or rebooted franchises will be case by case.

@Matman909_OW 5v5 isn’t the issue to me it’s the leaning “more of a traditional shooter” that will kill it for me. Overwatch is unique and honestly is the only shooter I return to even with how poorly it’s handled because the base gameplay is different and fun for a lot of different playstyles

I have a simple head canon fix for the Reaper story and it’s that his wife was also an Overwatch agent, they argued about ends and means, Swiss exploded, boom, he took the opportunity and left her behind because Reyes is an idiot and an *******.
