    This used to be my favorite game. However alle the OP new heroes, the unbalanced reworks, the nerfs, the completely busted matchmaking, and the community slowly moving towards playing for medals and not caring about winning, has absolutely destroyed this game for me.

    I have spent a fortune on lootboxes, I have spent several fortunes on merch, convering my living room to a shrone to Dva and Mei, but right now, the game is unplayable. Whenever I jump in, if I go quick play, people will troll pick and tell me "relax just qp", but the same happens in ranked, only much worse. I have been in a constant state of denial, but I have finally concluded how much ass this game is.

    Blizzard has continually, albeit slowly, adding new content in the form of maps and heroes. Fun action competitive multiplayer game. The matchmaking system can be frustrating at times.. I keep getting placed into late matches on the losing end.

    Overwatch has a great diversity of character /'Hero's' with special powers or an 'Ultimate' power. Each hero feels vastly unique from another.
    Blizzard has continually, albeit slowly, adding new content in the form of maps and heroes. Fun action competitive multiplayer game. The matchmaking system can be frustrating at times.. I keep getting placed into late matches on the losing end.

    Overwatch has a great diversity of character /'Hero's' with special powers or an 'Ultimate' power. Each hero feels vastly unique from another. I've played a total of about 40 hours in the past two weeks (total in game time - not in lobby or waiting to play). The game is superbly balanced and runs smoothly on older systems GTX 740 with core 2 duo (at least 30 fps on med low settings).

    The color and contrast, and texturing of the game is far more appeasing to me than that of TF2 or Battleborn (too much color, and little shading). The maps are individually unique, beautiful and require different team strategies and hero makeup to overcome ones opponents.

    I'm having a blast playing Overwatch...That said, I would not recommend buying the game at the current price of $40. See below for reasons why.

    -Currently the community is irritating to play with, only 1/10 players in pick up groups use a mic.

    -As a multiplayer only game, it is disappointing that there are no options to filter games. For example, I'd like to filter out preformed groups when I'm playing with a random PUG group. Also, the matchmaking for this game is horrendous. I've been placed into a game that is within 1-2 min. of the end of the match and loosing several times in a row. Further on this point, the devs have stated that match making takes into account several factors...including player performance to match. It now seems like I am stuck with players who really do not play at all as a team (no mic, no communication) and as a result my wins : loses is gradually decreasing.

    -We NEED more maps. 14 maps and only 3 types of game modes (the game states 4, however, two of which are really the same thing escort vs the hybrid).

    -There is little sense of progression. Nobody gives a s**T about sprays.

    -The HIT boxes are larger than they appear, it creates a system whereby players with poor aim get many B.S. kills, evident by the kill cam afterwards and the occasional frag when you are clearly safely on the other side of a wall (attributable to the hitbox).

    -You can shoot through your allies? WTH? I can understand no TKs, however this creates a scenario where Hanzo and Widowmaker get a bunch of B.S. eliminations without having to really place their cross hairs on an opponent..

    Overall I very much like the game. Blizzard just needs to get more maps out, and create a filter system and then I would gladly bump my rating up to 8-9 which is a recommend from me.

    Короче мусор. Играю со второго сезона, потраченного времени не жаль, так как за все это время наиграл всего 300 часов. И вот почему:
    - Техническая сторона. Слабые сервера близзард, других нет; порченная оптимизация и почти полное отсутствие своевременных фиксов сделали ов банально неприятным для игры. Постоянные ноуреги, фантомный урон, кривое отображение попаданий, пропадающие звуки ульт: все при этой игре.
    - Кривой матчмейкер. Джефф Каплан подтвердил существование скрытого ммр, по которому подбирает в ранкеде. Подбирает так себе: постоянные лузстрики чередуются винстриками, в итоге прыгаешь на 2-3 лиги порой из 7 возможных. Невероятно глупо и фрустрирующе.
    - Идиотский дизайн. Все красиво, но при более тщательном рассмотрении понимаешь, что на тщательно проработанных картах ты постоянно застреваешь в каком-то невпопад расположенном мусоре, а на особо чувствительных героях нифига не видишь из-за спецэффектов и нескрываемых маркеров.
    - Порочная идея командности с рандомами. Как вы себе это вообще представляете, да еще и на совершенно разных героях?
    - Почти нулевая поддержка для русскоязычного населения. Полгода пытался достучаться до техподдержки по поводу резко появившихся просадок фпс, в итоге купил новый комп быстрее. За год мне никто не помог и даже не ответил. Ххтьфу, позорные клоуны.
    - Коммьюнити. Уже отфильтровано, норм пацаны ливнули, остались только отчаявшиеся, как я, и больные на голову. Вторых гораздо больше кста. Игра сжигает до шкварок и сводит с ума даже самых стрессоустойчивых чуваков, единственный выход - полностью забить на то, что ты делаешь, и утратить счет времени своей жизни. Но это не нормально, это лечить надо.
    - Баны. Просто по приколу, по накопительной системе за репорты, БЕЗАПЕЛЛЯЦИОННО, в том числе на форуме. Годно? Ну, вообще нет.
    - 0 контента. 29 героев, ни пиков, ни банов, нифига нет. Кастомки лишь, которые обесценены, на кой черт надо? Скинчики, ивенты, все уже было.

    Ну, и в итоге хотите ли вы за это платить? За игру с токсиками, которая сожжет ваши нервные клетки, ничего не предложив взамен, и в которой вас забанят при первой же попытке хоть что-то донести до скота, играющего в это, словами? Конечно нет.
    Играйте в паладинс, ов хуже, меньше и дороже. Стыд, мать твою.

    Mechanically 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.

    Overwatch is probably not the best in any genre but it is probably the most polished multiplayer FPS on the market. It took awhile for me to get into it but now I am hooked on it and can never get enough. Most people are on voice and its pretty nice crowd as far as I know - Blizzrd's report system works ok I guess. I recommend this!

    It's clear most of the bad reviews here are just from jealous TF2 fanboys who probably haven't even played the game. Overwatch is an excellent game that'll keep you coming back over and over. Of course, it's not without its problems - but it's nothing Blizzard won't eventually fix.

    Game is ok, nothing ground breaking but polished. Yet even after almost 3 years the matchmaking is still horrible, the teams unbalanced, no real team play in a team based game and no efforts of the developers to change the core issues. It's basically the same game as it was at the beginning with the same issues which speaks volumes.

Unbalanced gameplay, toxic players in game degrading you, Blizzard hates its own players and ruins the game with awful nerfs and buffs, smurfs in lower rank making most matches unfair, etc. If I could rate this game on its graphics and maps, I'd give it a 10. Although, what good are those if the core of the game, the gameplay, is enough to make you want to slit your throat. I've moved on to the game Paladins, which is a free to play game, and frankly, I wish I'd started with it 2 years ago instead of Overwatch. It is so much more rewarding, fun, and balanced than Overwatch ever has been. It is rumored that Overwatch is also going free to play to compete with Paladins in 2019. I'd wait for that before wasting your money like I did for an awful maddening experience. Expand

    I'm writing this review 2.5 years after originally purchasing the game, but I've got 1000+ hours of gameplay and it is still consistently one of my favorite games to date.

All the complaints about lack of balance and broken characters are the inevitable realities of an online multiplayer competitive game with a large cast and various abilities--you'll find the same complaints on any game. Blizzard is still adding new heroes and constantly reworking the existing ones to shift the balance and meta to keep things engaging, so while it is at its core the same game it was 2.5 years ago, I find myself never really getting bored, especially if you play with friends. I also haven't found another AAA competitive multiplayer title with as much amazing diversity and inclusivity--if you aren't one of those people who whines about "too many women" and "how dare they include gays" it is a refreshing breath of air to not see the same grizzled white man or sexy woman in bosom-busting "armor" that plagues so many other mainstream titles. The issue of toxicity is also, in my opinion, quite laughable; have you seen the LOL or DOTA communities? What playing a game of COD or Battlefield can be like? Blizzard actually takes steps to address negative sportsmanship/toxicity in its games, and although it could be doing better I find it is way more enjoyable to play Overwatch than most other online multiplayer titles. Overall, it has its balance issues, it has its wacky lore issues, the community can be a drag sometimes, but I find so much charm and fun in playing the game that I don't see myself stopping anytime soon.

    What 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.

To me this is not just due to the fact that the community is toxic. (in fact, most online games now and days are just as toxic or worse. Take League of Legends for example) It is the fact that Blizzard will make any change they can if any of the fans/users complain about it enough. Now you can see that as a good thing, which it is, unless you are overdoing like blizzard has done in the last year or so with all the unnecessary buffs, debuffs, reworks, they have done to almost all their characters outside of releasing new characters just because people where complaining how often they were loosing. Overwatch to me is great if you are just getting into it, but it still has a way to go for people like me who have played the game from the beginning to get us re-hyped for the game. Expand

    The game itself is very well made. It runs smooth, the maps are great and the overall gameplay is very good. They are very close to their community and the PTR is a great way to see how everything works out. The characters are amazing and they all have their own way of adding to the fight.

    The only horrible thing they messed up was not having a good system to play competitive. I dropped massive skill rating because of trollers, throwers and people who had no idea what they were doing. Which makes me kinda stuck in low lvl regions which does not give me a challenge at all. They added a new skill rating and a way to play with groups later which made it better to gather a good competitive group but for a lot of players that's way too late.

    When Overwatch came out, I would have rated this a 10/10, but after realizing how repetitive it ends up becoming, even before hitting the 100 hours mark, I have to give it a 9/10. It's a great game that receives few major updates that holds the game back. Well worth the asking price.

He single-handedly tears through teams by himself more or less, and has far too much health and armor. He has no real counter, and you need very good teamwork to take him down, as opposed to no strategy/skill character. Quick Play is horribly unbalanced with teams, and Competitive is toxic as hell. Loot boxes are a punch in the balls, offering no consistent credit system, forcing you to buy them if you want anything specific (basically gambling). Game has a lot of potential, but is ruined by blind devs. Don't buy this trash. Expand

    Core game design itself has a fundamental flaw though, and it makes everything so much worse; HEALING. Healing is the most important thing in this game, if you have a bad healer, a single bad healer in 2-2-2 comp, you're dead. But same does not apply to other classes, you can live with a bad DPS or a tank because they won't die if you have semi-competent healers. And... NO ONE WANTS TO PLAY HEALERS!! Most people who play them are forced to play them and it's a gamble; will they tilt because they get bored of holding down left click? There are almost none healer mains, and it's not their fault, the game is designed around healers and no one wants to play them.

    Not only this but all heroes are designed in such a way that they require a healer to function properly. A Doomfist without a half-decent healer will feed if he/she is not playing against 3 tiers lower players. Same goes for almost all heroes that are not healers.

    And you know what, I'm a healer main myself, and I was forced into this situation because I wanted to climb. When I realized that healing is the single most important thing in OW, I mained healers and climbed from Silver to Plat. That's how bad it is.

    I quit playing OW several seasons ago, I check the game out every once in a major patch or update, other than that, it's a waste of time.

REEEEEEEEEEEEE!" who gets further butthurt when you tell them to get good or aim better, because after all it could *never* be their fault. It's not like I've regularly seen a single player carry a whole team before, they just want to be carried and are angry their team wont pick up the welfare tab. In many ways the frustratio and rage witnessed in this game are similar to road rage, when someone who is rather controlling but it is either their ability or circumstance is limited to control, they are reminded they do not have control and interpret this an attack on their core world view. I won't claim to know why they're this way, I have some ideas, but in the end it's pretty funny to listen to.

    I liken the game as a mix between Unreal Tournament and TF2. It's surprisingly fun but I don't think I could ever view it as an "esport" or whatever that is. That's not to say I'm a casual, it's just that winning is an effect, a side effect, and getting fixated on winning can distract you from the gameplay that results in a win. If you're unsatisfied with how you're playing just try better, if you're satisfied with how you're playing you're probably having fun. The trick is to try and find fun in coming up with ways to resolve unsatisfactory plays so you dont just sit in a salt pit. As to why I don't really view it as a "competitive" game (as to how this label to affixed onto games when its the players that make a game competitive) is because it's still a bit too random for my taste. I like my environments a bit more controlled than this but it has a nice balance between random elements and controlled environment. I suppose a fully coordinated team could eliminate the random elements completely but as a solo player, that's my perspective.

That said, having played both Paladins and Overwath i can't really find any meaningful difference in the core gameplay. There's a switch in heroes' abilities but other than the fact that one is free and the other isn't i see no notable differences. The graphics in both games are good, although i play on lowest settings to negate any possible latency or lag. The maps look great, well made and intuitive in design. I like all the different modes available in Overwatch, as the core game can get a bit dull after a while. The heroes are all interesting in design. That said, i had a much easier time acquiring cosmetic gear in Paladins than i did in Overwatch, which in turn, begs to question, why does a paid game have to bait me with (mostly useless) loot to get me to play more? Micro-transactions are present in both games, but again, at least it makes sense in Paladins, as it is free. I cannot comment on the matchmaking, but i have noticed that Overwatch routinely pairs me with or against ludicrous level players. As for hackers, i've yet to meet one in either game, but what Blizzard does with PC Bangs in Korea is all kinds of shady and will eventually backfire. In summation, i think that Overwatch is good but not as good as the advertisers would have you believe. If you're thinking about getting it, if not for anything else than "Bragging Rights" at least try to get it cheap, like 20$ or less (preferably) because it's just a heavily advertised, boastful moba shooter that delivers on a basic level pretty well and not much else. Paladins does all of this, with different heroes, different modes and a different graphical style, for free. Which one is better for You is completely subjective. Expand

And read this: I played Mystery Heroes maybe 20 times yesterday and today, and I got tracer ONLY 4 times. This is b-u-l-l-s-h-i-t. The balance updates are very rare... why? Because Blizzard always makes another events and another loot boxes filled with **** They are really not cheap, and the legendaries are very rare. Now BLIZZARD READ THIS: stop thinking your game will be always fresh, because you add a lot of looboxes and other trash. Stop adding new "great content" and fix the old one.

But I felt like taking a chance on a game I'd otherwise decided against. I knew Blizzard. I hadn't been a fan of any of their games since Starcraft 1, and even then I played that in between other projects of mine. But Overwatch looked like it had a lot of passion and hard work put into it. So I gave it a shot.

    Overwatch proved to be a waste of my money in the end. I had fun playing it for about a week and then wondered what all the hype was about. But a couple of my friends kept pulling me back in, saying I just hadn't played it the right way or something, so I kept trying. This game just didn't stick for me.

    It's...lacking. In almost every way that makes every other team based shooter I've played fun. There's no real depth or complexity to any of the engagements. You know who's gonna win in almost any situation. You know exactly how to counter another person because of how restrictive and inflexible the combat is. The fact Blizz keeps adding new heroes without really tackling some of the issues with the old ones only creates more problems. And my GOOOD, the ultimates got old, so so fast. There's nothing to them. You press a button and kill or heal everything. The ONLY thing you have to worry about is timing. It's just so bland.

    I've found that when discussing what makes playing Overwatch so much fun to the fans and people who consistently play it, I don't get anywhere. All they can really say is that it's generally a good game. Why? The only conclusion I can draw from this is that they like how simple it is, or they just don't know anything better. Ironically, one of the other points I'm often handed is that "It looks good." Dude...Quake III Arena still looks good to me, even now. It plays even better. I know we gotta get our rocks off to silky smooth 60+ fps and 2k resolution but can I get a game that plays first?? I get enough shiny looking dumpster fires from EA, thanks.

    This feels nitpicky, but another point about the game I'm handed is the story. This is at least a better case to make than how the game looks, but I couldn't take the lore seriously at all. It tries way too hard, imo. Arena shooters don't need a complicated story with a deep background and interpersonal relationships for literally every character. It's neat..sure. But ultimately unnecessary. TF2 and Quake got along fine with "group of people shooting each other for **** and giggles". In fact, thanks to the simplicity of the premise, players were allowed to connect with their chosen character much more smoothly. They became what we made them. That's way cooler than getting someone with a predetermined history in my books. Plus, it really seems like some of the more popular characters are only so because their **** and/or asses have more 3d polygons in them; 3D jerkbait. You know? That's really **** disappointing.

    TL;DR game is stupid simple. Nothing else to salvage here. Gonna go back to Quake, TF2 and Unreal. Peace.

But claiming a Game to be Game of the Year, and your reasoning is because its "Fun", Is like electing Donald Trump into office because "Hes funny." And now for the second of many flaws in the reasoning behind this, "Its balanced." Ignoring the commonly accepted opinion by the people that this game is most definitely not balanced, An online-only multiplayer online shooter should be balanced from the start. It is not some kind of extra feature that the developers put in as a surprise, its something it should have from the start. That's like saying that a bowl of ice cream you just made is the best ice cream in the world because it has a spoon. The reasoning is just plain flawed. Overwatch came out the exact same year other games that deserve the spot as game of the year did. Some Examples include Dark Souls 3, DOOM, Inside, Final Fantasy 15, Uncharted 4, and Even Battlefield 1.
    All in all, the reasoning behind the criticism of this game is generally flawed and the community somehow ends up being worse than the fnaf community which is surprising.

But Overwatch with it's "good looking graphics" and "good sound" combined with not even challenging and repetitive gameplay is just sad. "Hey, why not make a way to play the game that costs a little more effort from the player than just pressing shift for xy?" Nah. Balance is most of the time just broken af and every update solves one problem, but causes another one. I just mention the Mercy rework. First she was perfectly fine, then the rework came and she was stupidly OP, then got nerfed into the ground till she is pretty much useless compared to other support Hero's. And all that goes on and on. Fancy graphics with literally no exciting gameplay and such a small learning curve as Overwatch has it won't keep a game alive that long. It's -sadly- just another pile of useless AAA junk that some people were throwing on the market. Make it good or just don't make it... Even though I have to mention: It CAN be fun for 2-3 matches every few days, but the matches are too repetitive for me. It is one of those games which have the same **** formula for every single match. That's why I rate 2/10. Because you can have at least a bit fun with it for a short period of time. Expand

    A technically perfect title, with astonishing graphics, optimized performances and nice menu navigation.
    It has very well designed character, mixing togheder skills taken from TF2 and balancing them between characters.

    That said, even if it's an incredibly well developed and maintained title, it has something that goes wrong when talking about the fun that it gives.
    Matchmaking is slow (sometimes it reachs 5-6 minutes to find a match in Europe, than after the match you have to wait again), unconsistent and the number of concurrent players is far from being the "40 million" they advertise so much.

    The hero skill based gameplay, even if it's almost balanced after lots of update, it's far from being a competitive style of game, on wich they push so much: it's a slot machine team game, where the only thing that matter is not shooting but using nicely your skill and, most of all, the ultimate, the unpredictable gamechanging factor that ruins everything. I know it's a cool idea, but it's not meant to be done for competitive and fair kind of games.
    The most frustrating thing is that a match is mostly based on shield heroes and support ones. Some of those last ones are, also, a lot overpowered and nothing has been made to balance them. Even if a support should be used aggressively, you should not design a character that does area heal, has a shield, has stun and does a lot of melee damage.
    It also seems like the game want to please everyone, giving medals and highlight randomly, also to very bad players during the match without reason.

    The community is sometimes toxic, sometimes weeaboo, sometimes Brizard's fans. I'm not saying it's always that way, but during my hours of gameplay I've got some encounters like that.
    The undoubted overrating behaviour arround this title seems in part caused from this very last part of the community.
    Also it's true what they say: if you are solo or you are in a team but with very incompetent friends, don't think the matchmaking is gonna give you match based on your overall skill level.

    I won't talk (and considering in the score that I've given) about the lore that is pretty cheap both in narration and articulation, since it has nothing to do with the gameplay.

    Lastly, the incredible lack of maps and modes. Heroes are enough, skins and collectibles also, but stuff that regards gameplay is in miserable quantity for a paid online-only title.

    "Sometimes I'm not sure why do I even bother .."

    If I can describe my entire experience of playing Overwatch in one word, it would be - frustrating. Upon playing your first match, you do not feel as if you are entering a video game, but opening the gates of hell instead. I have been met with immediate hatred, blaming, random cursing, nothing to even slightly resemble a good time. And
    "Sometimes I'm not sure why do I even bother .."

    If I can describe my entire experience of playing Overwatch in one word, it would be - frustrating. Upon playing your first match, you do not feel as if you are entering a video game, but opening the gates of hell instead. I have been met with immediate hatred, blaming, random cursing, nothing to even slightly resemble a good time. And this is just the beginning. The main problem of Overwatch is that it is a competitive shooter that relies way too much on team play, and personal skill means nothing on its own. Obviously, it is greatly important how good you are at the game, but you cannot do anything on your own even if you are the best player out there. The team setup has to be well-thought, with some hero combinations being clearly more prone to success than others, but ironically nobody really cares. Playing in a team that picks 5 dps characters and you play the only support is not uncommon, but the funny thing is that most of these players love to blame somebody else for their own selfishness. It feels as if they lose intentionally so that they can blame, fight and argue with somebody.

    Another problem that only fuels the previously mentioned fault of the game is the competitive matchmaking system. New solo players of skill must get ready for the so-called ELO hell. The system matches you against either worse or better players, so that you can get your dose of winning, however when the system decides it is time for you to lose, it is going to pair you with clearly worse players so that you have no chance (just check the stats!). For example, sometimes you are going to play against a team of a higher rank, but being matched with people that have much lower stats than you. Overall it feels that the matchmaking system has been designed to artificially pull you down the ladder so that it would take you more time to climb, meaning more money for the company.... A very bad money-grabbing practice.

    The third problem of the game is that it suffers from a lot of balance issues, with some characters being much stronger than others. This is an issue that is practically unsolvable, considering the different roles and skills each character has. As a player, you get adjusted to how everything works, but you notice some character interactions being unfair, such as some characters being unable to make any dps to a tank, or others instakill a healer. Character redesigns do not fix the real problem, sadly.

    But not everything is bad stuff.. All the characters have been designed very well, with attention to details of their personality, skill, attitude, etc.. The game levels are beautiful, vibrant and open to different scenarios, however, there are not nearly enough. The game has been programmed and polished very well, being able to work on older hardware, too. The fast pace of the action has been captured quite well, with the right design choices holding everything well together.

    All in all, Overwatch most definitely is not a bad game, however, it suffers from the same problems other Blizzard games have - greed. My observations lead me to believe that most of the player frustration comes from the horrible matchmaking that intentionally disrespects the solo player.

    At first, I feel privileged to be the first to make a thoughtful, honest review instead of "omg its tf2" and "omg cancer community!1!"

    Bliz has taken the title belt over every genre it's entered: MMO, FPS, RTS, ARPG,...ok HOTS was pretty bad, but point is they're no pushovers of game developing, and Overwatch truly is revolutionary. You can tell they played every video game they could to extract every good idea for gameplay possible and - frankly - crafted an FPS to such perfection that OW will be the standard of FPS for rest of time in terms of gameplay/character design, map design, voice work, music composition, commendably balanced heroes, beautiful graphics, even going PC (ie a lesbian hero, a bisexual hero, or buff chick and chunky chick for the feminists, or robots that are portrayed as an oppressed minority [I can see the others, but racism against robots? really?] ) just about everything in OW is polished to a shiny sheen. So, why the low score?

    It isn't evolving. It could be argued that Bliz made a game so perfect that it has nowhere to go, but there is still this looming void about the game as the years pass (even bliz said "here comes next comp season. see you there._. ). TF2 introduced new modes, new weapons which allowed alternate play styles, many, many new maps, and it's personality was one-of-a-kind with a charm that never went away. OW has given little new content save for an occasional map, or a new hero who's balancing is all over the place (sombra sucked @1st, ana was a god @1st, Fist either kills everything or dies instantly, and Moira is f**ing INSANE) or taking some casual mode and putting COMP in front if it i.e. comp FFA/soccer. The flow of content is slow and anti climactic.

    2nd reason is the game's lore is absolute garbage. The game has no driving narrative. Every hero's story is "everyone thought they died...BUT THEY CAME BACK WITH VIDEO GAEEM PWERRZZ!!"
    As is trendy nowadays, everyone has 0 development. None. It's like Bliz made a 20 part book series that all had 1 chapter. It's hard to view the heroes as...well heroes, bc they don't fight anything. Who is the enemy? Why do they exist? Why are they fighting? To kick a soda machine's a** in Japan?

    C'mon, we all know the real reason why this is. If you want a plot to be interesting, characters have to struggle, suffer, discuss morality, philosophy, justice vs vengeance, mercy or execution, 2nd chance or judgement, who is the hero and who is the villain, who are you rooting for/against? Not only would this take time and *cough* talent, but calling something "evil" might offend someone, so everyone's motivation is brushed into a cloud of uncertainty, pretty graphics, and shiny, purple booties. After all, WHO ARE YOU TO SAY WHATS RIGHT OR WRONG! CHECK UR PRIVILEGE BRO! UR JUST (shaming buzzword here).

    The balancing isn't perfect either. Junkrat, Phara, and Widow leave a warpath to the objectives bc they have little counterplay when used properly. Phara 2 shots her own counters & 90% of the OW cast can't even engage her bc her mobility and flight which render her unkillable, Rat can blindly spam to f*ing murder teams by himself, and accurate Widow's are 1man armies while no one plays Report Torb.

    Speaking of reports, Bliz still has their bs report system. Problem is, you can get reported for "abusive language" for playing Torb. I made a sarcastic, unoffensive comment in General Chat, and saw a 3 month silence. Should I even be shocked anymore? The first month I played OW, I didn't talk, and weekly i still got emails from Bliz telling me to tone down the abuse. Now I'm getting reported for not communicating, and paragraphs of "teamwork" and "this is why you're bronze" sermons.

    Which brings me to my final beef with OW: the community. No, they're not the worst ever. Honestly, I'd say this is the least toxic & coolest community I've seen in 20 years of online gaming, so what's so bad? Even here, you can see "cancerous community" popup in all of the neg reviews. What. a bunch. of babies. Try LoL. You kids don't know the meaning of "cancer", but bc the squeaky wheel was so loud, Bliz made their dumb*ss report system so they can PR about the number of punished accounts.

    I can't take it anymore. When it comes to gameplay, they are so. f*ing. stupid. Leave it to our favorite collective of idiots to make "GROUP, WALK TO SQUARE, PUSH Q" impossibly difficult. I don't mean losing, I mean being completely and utterly shut down. All you can do is kick back in your lawn chair and laugh at the calamity. The enemy is sooo good. Tanks absorbing damage, dps kicking ass, present healers, great ultimate usage, great focus, and no matter how much I bomb my elo, they always have a badass sniper that doesn't miss a headshot. You're team has 6 wandering DPS that only exist as Dabacabb montage fodder leaving you - as 1 player - defenseless.

    Who am i kidding. No one's reading this s** anymore.

    The game suffers from many flaws which I believe will give the player a bad experience. First, if you don’t have a group of friends who play this game, do not bother. This game punishes solo players with its competitive mode match-making system which is very flawed. You’ll constantly be grouped with toxic uncooperative players..

    The game is fairly well polished and optimized, but can be pretty glitchy at times.
    The game has quite a few characters by now, which promotes varied gameplay, but unfortunately Blizzard is atrociously slow at balancing them. After reworks or new characters are added, it takes months for them to become balanced. Brigitte is the newest example of this, the character is broken af and has caused many tank mains (myself included) to stray away from tanking because she can screw them over without even needing to touch the keyboard.
    Competitive in Overwatch isn't particularly good (I personally loathe it). There's no form of role queuing, so you often end up with with 3-4 DPS mains (since DPS players make up the vast majority of the playerbase).
    Overwatch has annual events where you can unlock limited time cosmetics by playing or buying loot boxes, they also usually feature special arcade modes.
    Overwatch has some pretty nice social features, there's both voice and text chat (the text chat is only available on PC though), and you can easily stay in touch with people you meet outside of the game as well due to the social features of the launcher.

    Regardless of my many gripes with this game, I've come to love it due to the varied gameplay and memorable characters, and I would highly recommend trying it out.

    I'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.
