@GreatCheshire I’m pretty sure how bad they fumbled Overwatch is the reason Overwatch 2 exists, figuring it’s better to restart from the ground up than try and fix the bloated monster the original game has become.

I have to say, Korean PC bangs have been hella disappointing. None so far can run Overwatch, 3/5 had broken monitors, super slow wifi speeds.. Idk if I just expected to be able to game like I can at home

@trippy_124 @ZenofyMedia Engine, reliability, hardware support, quality of actual tickrate inside the server although source engine does 100 tick which ow does not do. The fact overwatch is 6 years old and doesn’t crash out (apart from nvidia caused issues) and just works. Can run on a potato. So yeah.

@GUNDAMEVO_JP You need to fix the problem of how long it takes to earn credits to unlock other suits. If problems like this are not fixed by the time Overwatch 2 releases then interest in this game will die very quickly

@shrekcher like my problem with overwatch for the longest time has been that they have these really fun events that only last like 3 weeks and then there's these *** periods of downtime where the game just feels super stale

@OneSmugCat1 @GreatCheshire Multiplayer communities can find broken stuff real quick nowadays. That was part of the fun, finding and adopting new broken stuff. I do think Overwatch's balancing ideology was insane though. It really felt like they were throwing stuff to the wall to see what stuck.

Played some Gundam Evolution last night and it feels like JP Overwatch. I think its fine, I always had issues playing games like OW but I'll play it as a casual game.

Bandai. Whoever is working on the game. Please Steam has mixed reviews because of these same issues. Please fix your game. I find it genuinely more fun than Overwatch, but you need to fix these issues. I'll even ignore you soft blocking of challenges if you fix this

Overwatch is over in a week from today. If you have a problem with me, let’s settle it. Games ending so I no longer have any issue with anyone. Everything is in the past.

@TheComfyGamer Minecraft cool. COD, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Call of Duty, Overwatch, Diablo, Crash, Spyro, and tons more are leaving, but at least they have Minecraft 🥴

I am convinced that no one in games media who plays overwatch understands the game enough to comment on OW2 changes. Blizz has a messaging problem and it appears money cant fix it. Hire good marketers Blizz holy ****.

@lunasinclair I think the overwatch reference is a joke? Or I am missing why this person is a "gamer". This person clearly has issues, but I don't understand why then "the gaming community (is) completely devoid of empathy'???

@MacGeiler All of that I can see has a chance of happening except the blacklist. After all the trouble Overwatch had with their blacklist with a significantly larger player base, no way that For Honor risks the same pitfalls with a smaller player base.

I'm more than mildly pissed off. I wanted to go log into Overwatch on my Xbox before I lose all my skins for OW2 (find it dumb I can't just link my Xbox account from the site or something). And it's just issue after issue. ×.×

@squicklinb @CaitlinKoiYT @NiceO_spl honestly the shitflinging between casual and comp players is obscuring the actual problem: splatoon’s overwatch-tier matchmaking system and its chronic need to keep everyone at an even w/l ratio, regardless of skill level, is hot garbage lol

overwatch fans be like "lol imagine having to beg for community updates" meanwhile complaining on blizzard forums for them to change the melee range of one of the heroes because it's too "unfair and broken and not competitively viable"

@Jesse_Twinsalty I feel like experience from a hectic game like overwatch can translate well to valorant, as the most common issue I have with some valorant casters is that they get distracted or lost in the chaos during fast takes or util trades

@dot_executables @TommoTheCabbit The only fix that matters to me : is the Overwatch finally stealthy or do you still get discovered if you shoot someone down with it even if no one is looking at you/at the person getting shot ?
