Regardless of anyone’s opinion on the business model that Blizzard went with, this game will still make them an assload of money. People say f2p with cosmetics only is the proper way to do it and then bitch that they have to spend money to unlock cosmetics quickly like they aren’t going to be playing this for years???

It's not cosmetics only. You have to buy heroes too.

Reaper is really good if you have a good tank, and unplayable if your tank sucks. Many heroes on DPS are like this but Reaper I think, personally, is the worst. Live and die by the brawl positioning decisions, and while you have an out, it's very easy to just not contribute.

It's not supposed to be hard, it's actually supposed to be very easy. That's what makes it addictive, because it's something easy to do but you have to do it for a long time.

if PC aim feels off, the general consensus is these might be the culprit, set the following: Dynamic render scaling > Off (I force the scaling to 75% personally, it let's me turn everything else way up and still get lots of frames) Controller > Aim smoothing 0% High precision mouse input > re-enable Screen and HUD shake > Off

That’s not the same unlock system that the new character releases will have. They will all be locked like Kitsune so grats on falling for that trap.

This is true but OW1 actually gave you a lot of ways to get free loot boxes (leveling up, winning 3 arcade games, playing flex role sometimes) and now there’s *no* way to get cosmetics beyond grinding 60 gold per week. You can get a legendary skin after 8 months. The juxtaposition between the two systems just sucks.

None of this bolds well for the upcoming WoW expansion, and Diablo 4, if Blizzard can’t even get out a minor Overwatch update that adds a 2 to the title and branding.

Don’t forget new characters are also level 55 on the free battlepass (meaning weeks of grinding), and unlocked via “challenges” (which we still have no details on) after the season ends. Quad posted:New Kiriko menu music tune has the exact same Generic Trap Beat as The Worst Fortnite Song and it fills me with an impotent rage that it is on purpose, that it is a finely crafted marketing decision to be as legally distinct from, but similar to, Fortnite in any way they can.

You’re just worse in this game. Aiming is harder and tighter because the engine requires you to be more accurate. Get better.

Yeah that’s why pro hitscan players in OW hit the same number of shots as bronze and every tracer is unkillable because they just AD all day.

I keep ricocheting sharply between "this game is insanely fun and feels so fresh to play despite being an iteration of a game i have been playing for years" and "I cannot believe how incredibly inept the implementation of every single aspect of this game is" at a dangerous and potentially unhealthy pace. That's blizzard magic baby

Feel like I should remind console players to turn off crossplay because it makes Comp completely unwinnable in some cases. I dont think it’s fair when I’m playing as ana and get wrecked by an opposing ana who can I see doing wasd circles and flick shotting me on the kill cam.

Cowboy's and Bastion's grenades should have a visual cue when they stick to you, like Echo's does, but they don't. It's bad. Also I discovered today, after some testing, that Orisa's shield is loving weird and has unique properties that no other abilities do. It acts like Genji's Deflect or Sigma's Absorb, where it interacts with projectiles but not beams, but until those it also for some reason blocks melee attack, which nothing else in the game does. It has weird interactions where apparently Junker Queen's Ult is both an AoE Melee Attack AND an AoE Debuff, and Orisa's shield blocks one part of it but not the other. poo poo's getting weird and it's obvious that they're getting less and less concerned about having consistent rules between character abilities.
