  @DarthBoras Possibly, nearly forgot about the Microsoft acquisition. They will need to work hard to fix this mess. Overwatch 2 is a disaster. I think the only reason WOTK is working out is it is mostly old code.

  @AcidQueenOW i think though the biggest issue with Mythic skins is whether or not the engine works well with custom skins. let's face it. Overwatch's engine kinda sucks. but i really do believe it was designed for optimal gameplay.

  @Fogthrone1 Video games, yes. And it's caused some problems for them. Destiny 1&2, Division 1&2, Anthem, and the most recent one, Overwatch 2 have all had serious issues at launch and beyond. And those are from devs who have experience with that model. WotC can't even put basic stuff 1/

  @Crownified @Nibellion Wouldn't owning Activision make them a much more competitive? They would own some of the most popular franchises. Cod obvs, WOW, Overwatch, Crash, Tony Hawk.

  Overwatch 2 launch is... not great. And you can't play old OW1 anymore. Is there a possibility that soon Blizz earns less money with OW2 than with old OW1 still running? They stopped something that actually sold loot boxes... Hope they fix the game and content soon enough.

  @JaysonDoesMusic You're still not thinking about it right -- Bungie is one live service game that Microsoft bought to fold into their services. Activision-Blizzard is Diablo, Wacraft, Starcraft, Overwatch, Candy Crush, Call of Duty, Crash Bandicoot/Spyro, Guitar Hero, Tony Hawk, Total War.....

  @azuralikespatd I disagree with delaying the game further just for a couple bug fixes. All of these problems happen for new launches all the time (even with them putting overwatch on a new engine) and are short term problems.

  @Kephrii Literally all this is saying is that you want free **** and the least unanimous least favourite game mode. You just want OW2 bruh, people need to stop complaining and accept the good and the bad parts of overwatch becoming a modern live service game.

  Yo @Xbox, it would be cool to not get kicked from overwatch 2 every time I get a success. Is it something you guys can fix ?

  I do wonder how many live service games have to be money sinks before companies realize that they're not the automatically the printing press that F/GO and Overwatch are.

  @TooHardcore Same. This season and the previous one just got me feeling off for some reason. SBMM, insane meta, Trials, weapon crafting, Ketchcrash over and over. Im just waiting for Iron Banner. Right now im on my FFXIV/New World fix. I actually feel better. Overwatch is fun too.

  I've never had a problem with a a game as much have with #Overwatch , either the game doesn't launch from launcher, or the game randomly crashed despite everything i have is updated and is fine to my knowledge. Literally the only game with issues.

  nikita (@rijmeta) reported 40 minutes ago

  so the entire years-long marketing was selling the DLC, not the game. the game is just overwatch 1 with a greedier battlepass than any AAA live service game out there

  @Gliittcchh @pizzapineapple9 @mokeysniper The aim assist is weak af anyway in overwatch. I think the main problem is that sensitivity feels pretty crap on controller on overwatch. So even the tiny amount of aim assist you get helps. They should just add keyboard and mouse support and break matchmaking up via input

  I'm sorry but anyone complaining about Overwatch being broken balance wise right now is just really ******* bad at the game, because this is very obviously the best the game has ever been
