@Gale_Adelade Lol bruh every hero has a counter stop crying, u just mad cuz u have to adjust instead of comfortably win every game. If anything the matchmaking is ******* terrible and we can all agree on that, but if Sojourn is a problem for u then figure out a solution Mr. Overwatch 🥱😴

Crazy how Sojourn and Hog have been a problem since release but @PlayOverwatch has refused to do any serious nerfs. They're going to kill Overwatch 2 the same way as they did with Overwatch 1 if they keep letting characters run rampant

@DJfriendlygamer @st3v3132 @NikoMueller Yet how is it showing off their market power when they haven't done anything with them? Ntm that MS has Elderscrolls, Fallout, Doom, COD, Spyro, Crash, Diablo, Overwatch, WOW, Banjo and Kazooie, Fable, Halo, Gears Of War, and more. So isn't that a huge show of market power?

@Kara_mystic The only live service game I enjoy playing is Destiny 2. Don't get me wrong, I'll play COD And Overwatch 2 as well, but I'm not having a good time playing them, just need a break from so much Destiny some times.

@SNDorns @jasonschreier Diablo and Overwatch are both multiplayer franchises which Microsoft wouldnt make exclusive. Small franchises like Crash Bandicoot or Spyro are fair game, they would have a nominal effect on industry competitiveness

@strawberryjava @megamilkxl @OWAnonymous_ Because you insist the game is bad because of the players and replicate this idea that Overwatch 2 is suffering some gameplay error, which then gets picked up and spread around the community making the community, in turn, toxic.

@strawberryjava @megamilkxl @OWAnonymous_ People leaving mid game was absolutely a problem in overwatch 1 as well. Your gripe is with gamer bros rage quitting on you, not the game itself.

@comud27 @jasonschreier Why can’t you just look them up? Diablo, crash, overwatch, are some big ones. Plus all of the games they publish through third party might now be exclusives. Any future new IP’s as well.

@strawberryjava @OWAnonymous_ toxic mentality, “overwatch 2 man…” negative attitude/only focusing on negatives when they happen is going to make you not enjoy any game. i personally haven’t noticed people leaving as a particular issue, any more than it was in overwatch 1. hope you can enjoy the game someday

@strawberryjava @megamilkxl @OWAnonymous_ First you say leavers are a problem, the. You say you love the game but the game sucks, then you say, the streamers agree with me! Who cares? Your negativity and people like you who do nothing but complain makes Overwatch a miserable experience more than any game change

Also ngl I'm kinda tired of Overwatch. I feel like the driving point playing it during OW1 was to get the skins via lootboxes and play more when you get those skins and wear them. You obviously can't do that anymore without spending This wouldn't be a problem if it was cheaper

@FinanaRyugu This sort of thing really creates a problem too. In team-based games like Overwatch communication is a huge deal. If people are being driven to leave voice or chat it can put a team at a pretty big disadvantage. Stuff like this helps no one.

alright well it seems as though my stream issues haven’t been fixed. i think overwatch and my bitrate are fine again, now obs loses connection to my twitch and then just can’t connect so it yoinks my stream offline

Overwatch’s player base is in such a shot state. Been on this game since release and I don’t think I’ve ever seen it this bad. One quit almost dictates a constant 3v5 even with crossplay. PC pool and console pool alone both have the same issues on top of that. Its like, wtf. 😐
