@PlayOverwatch Are considerations being made to turn overwatch into more of a paid service (for example: including more frequent monetized content, making the game free to play) in order to provide a more steady stream of new content and new players than what was done with ow1?

@dafran The problem with Sinatraa is that it’ll be hard for him to dig out of this hole. There is enough evidence to practically ruin his career. I know as an Overwatch fan it sucks to watch one of the former greats go down like this, but unfortunately what he has done can’t be forgiven

@PlayOverwatch @ggDoA Is creating another overwatch game instead of keeping it as a games as a service a pressure blizzard is receiving from Activision to create a separate franchise that has a similar business/release model as call of duty?

@BlizzardCS every time I try to play overwatch on my switch, it gives me a log in error saying it failed to connect to the server. Is there any updates that need to be done/is there currently work being done to the game?

@AndrewYang If you're going to do that you're going to have to rebalance some laws and make them less of a gang and more of just overwatch and service.

@PlayOverwatch What is an incentive to drop Overwatch 1 and play Overwatch 2? It feels like I’m having real trouble viewing a reason as to why buy Overwatch 2 and why this game is not simply an expansion.

I kinda hate that overwatch has those weekly skins now. I’d rather login, buy what I want, and not think about overwatch for the next 3 months

Ok i am nit stupid or something on my game is broken but every sound is delayed in Overwatch right now since the patch this. It is annoying

@ValorantUpdates Charge of law and order by country, not by some indie game company. Again i would say Riot Games is using Sinatraa issue as drama and marketing. Look at Overwatch they released the statment and removed his skin simply as that.They don't post every month about this like patch note

(@TheRealSobBaget) reported
See, what my main issue is with games like LoL and Overwatch or even BF, is that, in many cases playing support can either make you feel really good about yourself as a player but also feel like the most garbage person to ever to tough a keyboard.

@PlayOverwatch Will y’all be removing one shot abilities in overwatch 2? I really feel that they don’t work with overwatch as a game, and hanzo/widow maker/doom have always caused problems for this very reason

@MasterHavik @VersedGamer @Kotaku Firstly, you hit a problem with dub situations in that you're playing characters who are actually speaking a completely different language. Secondly, I don't know Overwatch very well, but being able to speak certain languages says more about your nationality rather than race.

@PlayOverwatch Could we expect a better long term service for Overwatch 2 than the first one ? Or do you plan to last few years and start an Overwatch 3 ? 🤨🤔

Hey all! It's SUPER warm in our house (80+ and our AC is broken - getting fixed soon, and back to 60s outside tomorrow though!) I'm going to hold off streaming tonight and catch up on artwork, but I'll be back on Wednesday w/ @HorrorStones_ and friends for some Overwatch! (1/2)

@ReckShippuden I don't understand man.. the game has such a fun concept but has literally no polish. Like bro an overwatch black clover game actually works considering the power system of the series but they still fumbled it man. Maybe a sequel could fix it but I doubt they'll even be one

@OhHaiiAlice Ehhh, even so Overwatch characters are free, it's the cosmetics that cost money. The Licensed characters I understand, but even so, IdV is able to do the same for free. I don't have any personal issues with it (hell I've bought it twice) but after a while it just... Becomes (c)

It’s not about Overwatch. It’s not about CoD. It’s not about shooters like Destiny. There are people who want Crash. They want Spyro. They want Tony Hawk. And Activision Blizzard blew it.

I wouldn't hire Winston from Overwatch. Guy's smart as heck, but has some rage issues. Like hulk smash rage issues.

@PlayOverwatch If Overwatch 2 is going to have a heavy story focus, can we expect any irreversible events that occur into the story? Broken bonds, changing sides, Possibly character deaths?

Not to mention had to flip a quarter to decide on if I should download Overwatch or Diablo 3 first and then saw Starcraft 2 there after I started the download of Overwatch. These are real problems people.
