I'm not even stressed because I don't find Overwatch to be particularly fun or engaging but it's the current free "thing" to play with my old lady when we're both not working and bored.

@GeistRK @lia3829376 @BlizzardCS I have a fix then. Go to the overwatch store click on the watchpoint pack and click buy. It will take you to the pack on the Xbox store it will say you own it. Wait about 20 seconds then go back to the game you should start to see it unlock

@PlayOverwatch Just bring back Overwatch 1 and make Overwatch 2 a standalone Game. That would actually fix it....

@MomohuaToma They just announced that Overwatch 2 will be down for about 1 hour at 3pm PT and about 3 hours at 6pm PT! They're putting out mass updates to try and fix the server issues. Depending on when you start stream, that might be an issue for you.

@PlayOverwatch Why open the servers to shut them back down? Just fix the game till its ready because this has felt like another one of Overwatches empty promises that will continue to be a problem.

Overwatch 1 was doing way too good to even remotely need a 'sequel'. It was at its PEAK. maybe slowing down a bit, but it was still popular. It had problems sure, but none so big that it would be more expensive to fix them then to just MAKE A NEW GAME ENTIRELY.

@LucyferPancakes How you shouldnt buy splatoon 3 because of Nintendo's case. Yet every big post about OW2 is about the case, and any post about the game itself gets flooded talking about the case. No other blizzard game has this issue either. Just Overwatch.

overwatch 2 is fun as ****, its giving me nostalgia of when i originally bought overwatch 1 in 2016, The 1000s of hours i put in this game. Only problem so far is that all of my matches have been way too easy, understandable since all these players are new to the game

@AlxwellD @nsbbnn It's almost like people can be bad at the broken character. I've seen bad Bayonettas in smash 4, bad symmetras in overwatch, bad snipers in tf2, the list goes on. There are players who simply aren't meant to play nurse.
