Alright, so I played Overwatch for a whole two hours. I didn't want to stop, but I decided to pry myself away from the awesome so I could inform my fellow impz about this here game :coolfish:

It owns. It owns, owns, and then owns again. They've consolidated all the stupid poo poo from tf2 into a way more intuitive experience. No more swimming through dumb servers, or being a little pussy and wanting to ~pick a game mode~. There's just one mode. Join Game. Have Fun. Do Objective. Straight to the loving point, no foreplay, Bliz goes right to home base (cause they hit this game out of the loving park :parrot:).

So you pick one of the 21 (:siren:holy gently caress:siren:) awesome Heroes, but Bliz does something great here. If you pick the wrong hero for the match, the game will tell you "TEAM NEEDS MORE OFFENSE" or "TOO MANY SNIPERS" in a booming robotic voice, it's clear that Bliz made a loving serious esport here. So not only is this a fuckawesome shooter, it's an official god drat team sport. I'm looking into the competitive scene myself, imagine how awesome it would be to get paid to play this masterpiece?! :cool: :20bux: :20bux: :20bux: :cool:

Speaking of playing, lets talk gameplay people. The mode is Payload, and I'm on attack. PREPARE OFFENSIVE STRATEGY pops up in plain white text, and god drat do I love that. No lovely little jokes that get stale, no attempt at having some loving feefees (:gay:) personality; straight to the objective folks. The cages open, and I'm a healer/support, playing awesome music to buff my buds. Controls couldn't be simpler. AWSD move, left click shoot, left shift ability 1, E ability 2. And if you forget, Based Blizzard has the announcer repeat the controls several times throughout the match. Nintendo doesn't have poo poo on how easy this is to pick up and play. :fuckoff:

We take the round. I was the only one pushing the load (a featureless sedan, again Bliz just knows players don't give a gently caress what the ball looks like, as long as playing with it is fun), I guess I was playing with a bunch of noobs cause I could just crouch behind the gigantic car and never get shot, and I got an amazing 24 kill streak before being one-shot by an invisible AOE homing grenade (think the awesome explosive RC Car from COD, but even MORE awesome :black101:).

When we were just a few feet away from the win, the announcer said "REWARDS WILL BE DISPENSED FOR THE WINNING TEAM AT THE END OF THE ROUND." I pull a clutch ultimate with the medic, reviving all nearby teammates with full heath and buffed damage (don't worry it's on a long cool down :science:) and the slickest VICTORY screen I've ever seen swooshes into view, the devs really just know how to poo poo on everyone else's UI. Now we get to watch the play of the game, I thought it'd be me since I had such an outrageous streak but it went to a teammate playing as the sexy-rear end Black Widow sniper, scoring a sweet 2-killstreak on idling players. It was no 24, I don't think he touched the payload ONCE the ENTIRE GAME, I basically did loving EVERYTHING, but I have to say those snipes looked WAY cooler than anything I did. That's when I realized, Blizzard Knows Best. They're not just going by score, or by loving numbers, the geniuses have come up with a measure for the COOL factor. Name me a loving game that does that. :colbert:

Now what're these rewards? Surely the awesome people behind Diablo have come up with some crazy loot system??

Oh. My. God.



That's right. Motherfucking Loot Boxes, with random cosmetic items. I don't think I have to say anything else, this game is perfect, and I've just pre-ordered the Collector's Edition (BEST 130 dollars I've ever spent :hellyeah:) and if you aren't some bitch-rear end, you will too.
