Jun 5, 2016Well.
A Blizzard game, without camping.
Oh, wait, if you really want to check the true story about Overwatch, go to Youtube, It's free.
A really big disappointment. -
Jun 18, 2016Empty game, 4 small maps,3 modes, 10 unfinished champions. Let's add its incomplete also and cost 60 Euros.
The worst comes about the ranked part, will make everything worst as all MOBAs -

Jun 28, 2016A poorly balanced game with only one game mode, and no single player. I really don"t get what people think is good about this game. It's boring and repetitive, i don't know how people can play this for more than a week without getting tired of it.
-
Jun 7, 2016The absolutely horrible matchmaking system and a community that completely refuses to communicate (while at the same time consistently emphasizing how this is a TEAM game) completely ruins this game. Most games are so badly matched that one side is completely dominating and the experience just isn't fun, for the losers or the winners. Planning to play this casually? Don't.

Jul 12, 2016Competitive mode is complete garbage and the rank is solely chosen based on if your team is retarded or not. Game has very little content and gets boring fast.
-
Jun 4, 2016it is a good game to play with friends bat ti sud be free to play because after a wild the player base it well be 0 and well by dead :(:(!!!!!!! the same like titanfall and Evolve and u bay a game and u have microtrans is stupid !!!!!

Jul 7, 2016Grab TF2, mix it up with asses, boobs and sell it at 50 bloody dollars. Last time i buy a Blizzard game. with 1152 hours in TF2, and 200+ hours in Overwatch, i can say that don't worth it. Anyways, what more i can expect from a company that makes a game which i need to pay monthly to play it?
-
Jul 16, 2016They may play TF2 to update new hero
Very disappointed game for me
No creativity and unbalanced between each hero
Except graphic expression, There's nothing better than tf2 -

Jul 27, 2016There's a good game buried in Overwatch, but it is grossly overshadowed by one of the worst match making mechanics around. Enforcing a 50% win rate, you will have frustrating, boring match after frustrating, boring match. Even if, somehow, you get a decent one, a rarity, the lack of maps will quickly make this game a dull use of forty dollars.
-
Jul 3, 2016perhaps worst competitive play system ever imagined. Super penalties for losing, no reward for winning. Matchmaking is awful. Being late from launch, no excuse for this level of bad.

Nov 1, 2016If I'm spending £40+ on a game, I expect that game to have £40+ worth of content in it and Overwatch just doesn't. It feels like a little incomplete indie game hiding behind a triple A price tag and a big dev studio.
-
Mar 4, 2017Pay for play a TF2 RIPOFF. No way. Characters purely ripoff of tf2 and Paladins, terrible microtransaction system, you get bored after 2 hours of gaming... And Tracer looks like Sora in Kingom Hearts. This game sucks.

Jul 6, 2016Where's my single player content? I'm sick of playing with losers. Also this game's too hard to play when I'm drunk, seriously how am I supposed to stream this? Sober? GTFO.

Nov 23, 2017Подбор соперников ужасен,баланс чуть выше среднего,огромное количество тролей на рейтинге 3000-3500+ ,поддержка игроков со стороны разроботчиков безполезная.
Итог 1/10 -

Feb 17, 2019Mechanically game is fun, but Blizzard had a long story of mishandling the PVP and cybersport aspects of their games and completely ignoring the playerbase and ALWAYS act like it's the community who isn't right and not them. In the end we will see them go down and forgotten, good job.

Dec 12, 2018This used to be a good game, but in an attempt to cater to a wider audience, devs stared introducing new characters and ruined the game balance and they can't seem to get it back to its glory days.
Developers appear to be more concerned with appeasing fringe community voices than actually fixing their game. -

May 10, 2020Every few months, the devs add another terrible character with cheap abilities who is inevitably overpowered for months or years and extremely frustrating to deal with, turning this once great game into more and more of a mess as time goes on. Don't bother with this trash.

Jan 25, 2020Thx Jeff for die this game!
The ranked game system is probably the worst I have ever played with -

Aug 19, 2016I was very hyped for this game to came out but then 60 euros to ma feis and its a demo its not complete,12 MAPS rlly.I can se potential but at the moment its bull***it
-
Jun 5, 2016not worth playing. All the this hype and it isn't better than some free to play games. The same game mechanics that a hundred other games have already done. A bunch of different characters, but they aren't very interesting in themselves. I guess this could be a good game for little kids.
-
Sep 17, 2016They made their money, and now it is clear they couldn't care less. Had SO much potential. This game is as unbalanced and boring as ever. You'll get a few days of fun, and then weeks or months of displeasure.

Jun 19, 2016Micro transactions after you pay for it? How lame.
Blizzard should be ashamed.
I'm giving it a 2, though, because it's the first time in over a decade they've come up with something that isn't directly from their Starcraft/Warcraft/Diablo universes. -

Aug 27, 2017Nope, just nope. MOBA with guns. Just like a MOBA, totally unbalanced. Have a tank with 600 HP? Die in 3 seconds because... i don't know, i really don't know. Played half a match? Have some lag. For these graphics i expected a lot more performance, totally dissapointed. Go back to Warcraft Blizzard... Also the "journalists" rating is waaay more than it deserves, I mean 100??
-
Jan 2, 2019This game is honestly dumpster juice, because of all the **** broken-ass characters, combined with all the **** maps. It's honestly hard to enjoy, sometimes you don't even know whats going on, this comes from a grandmaster. It's only half fun, when you play with friends, but even then, it's just unfun. Not recommended, not worth your time. F*ck this game, man.

Sep 3, 2016Overpriced, overhyped, little content.
Extremely unbalanced and dumb characters.
Amateur, unprofessional and dumb AF hitboxes.
Very unpleasant to solo players, literally unplayable and very much frustrating.
Game is fun when you just start and are learning. Once you're done it is extremely frustrating and anti-fun. -
Jun 14, 2016I could say that this game is like tf2,that it missuses female character,that is overratted and overprized but much more people with much more skills have already sad that

Jan 2, 2019What this game could have been..Due to the nature of this game, being team based, it is difficult to win games when other players do not communicate and change heroes to better the team when they are not doing well. This usually happens in every game, making the experience very dissatisfying. Unless you are willing to deal with bad teammates and very bad toxicity, this is not a good purchase.

Nov 20, 2016if u want to play this game competitively don't cause blizzard will **** u over but the gameplays pretty fun and the characters are cool just comp is the worst cancer u will experience

Aug 10, 2016Matchmaking was broken in the Rio patch and, as dramatic as it sounds, I've been unable to find any fun in the game since. I've seen games with a total level of 1000 against a total level of 300, which end in about four minutes.

Sep 2, 2016Horrible game, I don't know how people can enjoy this. It gets so boring after a few matches. The characters, the ambients and everything is so childish. The reason of all this hype and success is probably just the name Blizzard.

Aug 8, 2016Story (0/10) - there is none
Soundtrack (2/10) - voice acting is silly, and childish, while the music is nothing memorable
Gameplay (1/10) - heroes are unbalanced, there is zero reward for being a skilled player and zero punishment for trolling
Graphics (4/10) - there are older generation games that look better and play smoother -
Aug 9, 2016I will give higher score when blizzard will keep their promises and stop false advertising. BLIZZARD PLS FIX YOUR GAME.
Also no 60 tickrate is a joke in an fps game -

May 24, 2018**** game, **** Devs, for ****s.
Congrats, you're probably a ****got. Not sure what it's like being a **** but you'd probably fit right in with all the other ****
And guessing how much of a **** you are, you probably play Fortnite as well, since you'd fit in with the ****s over there. -

Apr 8, 2020Blizzard you are actual dumbasses. I am so pissed at you. I literally lag out of a competitive game, rejoin and end up winning the game, yet you still remove 100 SR OFF MY ACCOUNT That I quite frankly worked hard for. Fix your dumbass comp system, maybe somehow inplement a detector that detects whether a play has LAGGED OUT or intentionally left. Oh wait but you can’t be bothered

Jul 15, 2020After 4 years game is nothing more then leaver paradise where players care more about cosmetics and lootboxes then playing actual game, and if that is not enough the rampant obsession to destroy every hero for the sake of balance you are not fooling me.
Bad game..... -

May 21, 2020awful matchmaking, next to zero support from the "small indie" dev team in 2 years, awful balance, awful queues for anything that isn't boring to play, awful map design for half of the gamemode available, next to zero pve content, awful

Apr 20, 2018Overwatch remains one of the most compelling and experimental shooters in the world right now. Blizzard Entertainment’s commitment to innovative new heroes, modes and responding to community feedback is unparalleled – and a treat to watch. Like World of Warcraft, Starcraft and Diablo before it, Blizzard has crafted something that will undoubtedly be around for years to come.
-
May 5, 2017I'm certain that Overwatch will bring dozens of hours of fun to all lovers of dynamic online shooters. Focusing on one type of gameplay and an enormous attention to detail generated an excellent game. You have to appreciate the developers' sincerity when discussing doubts and problems with the community. Blizzard has done it again. You should see for yourself why so many players have fallen under Overwatch's spell.

Dec 8, 2016Overwatch is a punch to the face for multiplayer shooters. It mingles quick-fix, objective-based gameplay with a deep tactical core and intelligent meta, forming a game that is simply perfect in short bites and thoroughly satisfying to play for hours on end.
