  i come here to look at funny overwatch clips and IGNORE my problems, not look at them :/

  So disapointed with Overwatch 2. They desperately need to bring in an actual industry professional to come in and fix this rather than the internship-level skeleton crew they have been using for the past four years.

  @JShorty240DR At least paladins has more lore then overwatch but it still needs to fix the bugs

  @boxur47 Just brush it, Sunny and CeCe get matted fur every now and then and worst case if we can't fix it by brushing the groomers (actual job name, not overwatch players) give them a wash and fix it with a floof cut

  @PlayOverwatch Can you please fix the issue with not being able to select the "while you wait" button while queuing? It is super annoying to not be able to use. It's affecting multiple people on console. @BlizzardCS #overwatch #overwatch2 #ow

  @JezCorden isnt about foreclosing but i am 99% confident if the deal goes fine, the next crash bandicoot, spyro, skate, diablo, overwatch, every sequel or IP revival that is not called call of duty, will never see the light of day in playstation, just like bethesda

  @LancerLainn @OWAnonymous_ Fr this guy is acting like overwatch isn’t a game full of counter picking. Kiri was balanced at the mid season update so idk wtf he’s smoking. Very easy to get over 15k healing with main healers. I can’t believe people cry about kiri but don’t talk about broken Moira

  @carstairsbur Shes always been drunk since I met her randomly in a Overwatch game on PS4 like 6 years ago, back before i knew who she was on twitch, literally met her raging at me while drunk, she got issues

  @BlizzardCSEU_EN See, that's not very helpful as that like, yeah, try these generic network troubleshooting steps. Like I said, we have 3 different devices playing Overwatch and only one of them is seeing issues...

  @rocketamari [She gives a small smile and then a burst of laughter.] "Oh no, my dear Fareeha." [Composes herself and takes another sip of her coffee.] "I'm afraid the problem was far worse than Hubris. No, Overwatch was killed by deep and unconditional Love."

  @SaltagreppoD2 @BlueJay_42 @codisdestiny It is exactly how it works. R6 had a emp problem where thatcher was required, they had to rework emp. Overwatch had a meta problem where brig was required, they made role lock. The previous 2 games have never recovered their community. Yet Destiny 2 is growing. It’s fine.

  @KSRSeasparow @OWAnonymous_ Mfs act like overwatch isn’t a counter hero based game sigma making the game not fun go rein them pebbles can’t break a rein shield n if he charges rock tap shield when it’s airborne no more problem the real problem is hamper

  @GodsPetDog @wGamerman @PSLifeStyle Are you guys delusional? Most of ABK games are online games like Overwatch and those games NEED the largest player base they can get to survive. Maybe smaller games like Crash Bandicoot or Spyro become exclusive, but Sony (who doesn’t own the gaming IP) has Spider-Man…

  when there's a server error in overwatch 2 and ALL people in a game are effectively booted out for no reason, is it still counted as a loss? both teams freaked out about the sudden game-breaking lag and then we all got booted

  @rocketamari "Blackwatch was a symptom of that larger issue. When the peace accords were signed, Overwatch had no purpose. So Jack, eager to keep his beloved team together, found new purposes. Fighting International Crime, Environmental monitoring and so on."+
