Man I loved Overwatch when it came out. It's a shame that Blizzard messed up with balance and that the community pretend that DPS is the only role in game and playing anything else is a waste of time.

But I will not touch the micro transaction hell that is OW2 with a ten foot pole. It is a shame really.

They totally ended OW1 because of the big Epic Blizzard Storytelling to come in OW2 capitalist-laugh

I logged in for the first time in a few months and saw they had story missions up. Oh boy, my favorite part of this game! ... is locked behind a paywall?

With any luck the microsoft acquisition that has now been fully approved will result in changes. Like Kotick fucking off for one. And hopefully they audit and assess team and organisationally changes that are necessary.

It's fucking weird being a communist and being pleased that a company is merging into a giant monopoly but things were just that bad at actiblizz that microsoft might be an improvement.

We will see but I think it is too late for OW2

2 could be saved by one thing and one thing only, Jeff returning to it under secrecy and having the announcement of his return coincide with a major update that brings back 6v6 as well as adding a bunch of new stuff.

Otherwise they'll need a 3, and the new model will have to be significantly more generous.

Absolutely not. Jeff was the reason the devs bit off more they could chew.
