@TrevTheBeast10 @WillyMacShow @nicholasdeorio You joke but as a kid I used to spend hours on the slot machines in pokémon games. Then I spent days on slot machines in cinema servers on Gmod Then days on slot machines in Tower Unite Then about 800 bucks on lootboxes in Overwatch. Then I realized I had a problem.

@JulesSimioni @Mattwo7 @TF2OutofContext No, Overwatch died because it had issues with balance, which got brought up by strange changes, and new characters that were unbalanced to the point of breaking the game or be useless. Also the toxicity of the players that leaded bad publicity for an artificial eSports game.

@CrownCosmo ...gonna be honest, Cosmo, from someone who complained about people calling overwatch "dead" because it was less popular, this is kinda hypocritical. Especially since this has nothing to do with the problem?

If you want Valve to update TF2 here's what you can do: >Stop Playing the game >Stop buying from the mann co store >Play Overwatch >Email valve about the problem Instead you guys would rather self promote yourself through a tweet campaign.

I am indeed loosing faith in #Overwatch. As unique of a game it is which I cannot find a replacement for, its community has got to the point of only toxicity. #Overwatch2 Wont fix this and with the beta reactions, people will be stuck on the "ITS BAD" mentality.

@fur_yiff @egglikesbaal @OWAnonymous_ The problem with Overwatch is just that. Widow players play the character as if they played games like CoD or CSGO. This is another big reason why her character just doesn't work in OW. I know guys who came straight from CSGO to Widowmaker before double shield 1/?

@joshhaber @Julius_Kim Yeah, the FPS comment is pretty off the mark, unlike the rest. The FPSs that glorify realistic guns, combat, and killing are a problem, IMHO, but there are also FPSs with a far more cartoonish and harmless quality, like Fortnite and Overwatch. As always, YMMV.

@JulesSimioni @Mattwo7 @TF2OutofContext You realize that your solution is basically "remove everything that made TF2 unique, and turn it into a generic modern shooter game a la Overwatch, without letting people customize their look", right? And even if it happens, it still doesn't fix the issue of the bot's rampage.

@Henryyyjacks @NESbot_feed You know Activision in IP terms and in workforce are way way ahead true? You have Diablo, Overwatch, Warcraft, Crash, Spyro, Candy Crush, Cod and others like Prototype, Singualrity, Tenchu, Hexen, Tony Hawk, Guitar Hero, True Crime, Starcraft... Clearly pointless

@marlisjun @Innthacut Do they only make Call of Duty, OverWatch, or something? Thats a cool sounding game, never heard of it though. Crash, Spyro and Tony Hawk all count.

@arkclaimer Why would we need a sequel for a live service game? Did overwatch 2 really make people believe that games as such profit from sequels?

not to mention the culture of FPS as a whole. I'd even go so far as to say that gaming space would be oversaturated with CoDs and the like as opposed to hits like Overwatch and Valorant. From a design standpoint, it was a big way for guns to be more than just military-issue 2/9

@OWAnonymous_ The issue is that you still care about rank in overwatch 2022. You should've stopped caring by 2020 tbh.

Overwatch has a nice system where you can ban people you don’t wanna meet again. MK should have the same thing. Lag switchers , Mashers should all be thrown in a bin somewhere.

The biggest problem with Overwatch is it can be lost by one player but it can't be won by a singer player. In games like CSGO, Valorant, and even Apex to an extent you can at the very least "carry". Smart plays and aim will take you far. Overwatch is just unsatisfying to play.
