    The single best game of all time. The only problem with this game is other people, specifically the people that pick characters that don't fit the team composition and refuse to change. They suck. The game doesn't. A flawlessly designed game with infinite replay value and constant content updates. Blizzard is the best at making games for a reason.

    Good graphics, interesting gameplay, one of the best teamgame...
    The problem is only one - terrible community and the attitude of developers to the players, who just ignore you. It make you nervous all the time you are playing this game.
    It's a good game to play for fun for 2-3 months, but not more. Everything good in this game is too simple.

    Coming from someone who has played Overwatch for over a year, both for fun and competitively, its hard to judge Overwatch as a game or as a community, as the game itself is an amazing creation, and one of the best team-based games out there today, which has gained a massive following.

That's not to say the community helps its case, and while being one of the funnest games out there right now, the community is swarmed with toxic players, boosting in higher ranks, and griefing: where a player places a lower ranked than what they are placed/skilled yet. i.e. A Master player playing games in Silver.

    While I do have an extremely fun time playing the game as a whole, the community ruins this game from becoming the perfect game it could be. The Overwatch League, a weekly program from Wednesday to Saturday pits twelve teams against each other, and has definitely re sparked the interest of those who love Overwatch.

    When it comes down to it, while Overwatch is fun mechanically, the community will leave a sour taste in your mouth, wondering if you're willing to stick through it to simply enjoy the game.

    A stunning game with extremely solid gameplay plagued by the indecisiveness of Blizzard's "balancing" powers and an overwhelmingly toxic community.

New content is locked behind seasonal events where loot box odds plummet so that you can't grind out most of the skins without almost being forced to pay to better your odds. From someone who has 400 hours in-game (most in competitive) and has been playing since actual day one, this game is a shell of what it claimed to be and is dying because Blizzard can't figure out how to balance a game between the wants of the casual and pro community. Not only that, but the playerbase is unbelievably toxic in and out of ranked. Throwers, leavers, general griefers in chat and BM all around. For a game that took 2016 by storm, it's fading into obscurity. A forced entry into e-sports (Overwatch League) only brings viewer counts, not player counts. Expand

Almost every match is a complete washout for one side or the other, depending on whether the MM has decided you should win or lose. New players, prepare your anus because the matchmaking only (allegedly) tries to match aggregate skill on the two teams. That means that a bad player can and WILL get thrown in a match where almost everyone is much better as long as the magic algorithm thinks that the approximate team skill levels are balanced. Leaving aside the point I made above that matches are almost always garbage in solo-queue, even a near even match between teams will be a complete joyless pain if you are just fodder for the enemy team, and that's what is going on. Try logging on to some of the modes anywhere after about 8pm and watch what you'll get- one team around level 100 (or less) each against 3-5 people above 400lvls of experience. Pre-made teams against randoms. It's not a gg. So what I said before about matching the average skill of a team is BS, they don't even come close.

    It would be great if the vaunted "critic reviews" actually looked at things like matchmaking.

    ((Oh, and if you encounter the same jack@ss again and again griefing his own team, you can't do anything about it because they took out the "avoid player" button because toxic AHs were upset that no one wanted to play with them. The excuse is that "good players were being avoided because no one wanted to get beaten by them" but the SENSIBLE solution would have been to make "avoid this player" avoid having him on YOUR team. But Blizzard is either lazy, stupid, or loves to keep their games full of idiots griefing each other. Is mei walling his own team? How about teleporters that lead off cliffs?)) see below

    EDIT 3/25/18: Overwatch has now implemented a feature that allows you to avoid players on your team, just as many have suggested. HOWEVER, they limit you to two people. Two people out of how many players? And it lasts only 7 days. in the announcement they posted they said they are going to look at queue times and might increase the number. Hopefully they will increase it.

    And unfortunately there is no story, no plot, no solo or co-op play of any relevance so if you are put off by the crap matches you get, there is no point in playing. Really, the only way to play this game and have any fun is with multiple friends- the more the better so that you can defeat Blizzard's garbage matchmaking. But why give blizzard money for their lazy practices?

    Also, Genji is cancer.

There isn't a problem of hackers, but I've seen people completely pubstomp games with 50+ eliminations, usually as reaper, genji or bastion. Bastion isn't OP, it's that he's easy to play and the skill level required to beat him is a bit more substantial than the skill required to play him. Supports are well done, surprisingly. Most of them feel balanced, with a good skill ceiling availible for ambitous players. defense heroes are alright. Bit dull overall, with mei being an exception. I'm seeing way too many ultimates though, and unfortunately I see so many more offensive ones it's usually normal to see entire teams getting wiped out by 3 simultaneous ultimates. while mercy might only pop her ult once per round. Supports aren't building their ults fast enough. Tanks are surprisngly fun, with a lot of tactics involved other than running straight into enemy fire.
    Graphically i'm split. It looks great, with animation-like models and great environments. The optmization is also really good, running on lower end machines as well. My main problem is that a lot of the effects are too jarring. The screen can easily be filled with all sorts of visual effects, making it impossible to see what's happening.
    Mechanically it's good. The game modes are fair, with good amounts of opprunity on both sides for most games. I will say that payload maps need a rework. I'm seeing way too many bottlenecks where the game just freezes there until 3 or 4 ults are popped.Most maps are fine. None of them are very good though. It would pay to look at other games that have done maps well before. Please fix the jump animations. They make me feel terrible, like they have bobble heads or rigid spines.
    With friends? This game is amazing. The atmosphere the game creates is great. However I will say that the servers aren't great, so if some friends aren't in the same country, let alone region, I'd advise against playing with them.
    the music is ok. Honestly i thought Blizzard could do better but it's fine. it works and the tension is there near the end of the rounds. but it's bland compared to the overall theme of the game.
    Customization is great. Lots of taunts, voice clips, alternate costumes and sprays, although a good amount of the skins are just different colour schemes. The voice acting is superb, especially when the characters talk to each other during the preparation period.
    Almost no community made items though. no private servers or custom maps or private matches. A bit disappointed but really I've been spoilt by Valve letting me host whatever i want. L4D2, CSGO and TF2 al have a thriving community creating new stuff. Blizzard could release an Asset maker for us. That'd be fun.
    It's fun. There's competitive. There are few hackers. Graphically and stylistically it's great.
    But this score is how much i enjoyed it.
    And I think it's a great game. I might update my score after more content is released but right now not much is making me go "Hey I want to go back to Overwatch" and play more of it. It's hella fun, and when there's synergy, it works. But most of the time it's as if I've already played this before. i don't know whether the amount of content coming is worth staying on for, or Blizzard is just gonna take the SFV route and delay content but 30 quid isn't getting me much. I look forward to seeing what Blizzard does and whether it updates my score but a 7 is what I think it's worth.
    EDIT 2018
    The game has, as i had hoped, significant content patches with new maps n heroes. I can now say you can easily justify the price tag the game has. However, problems are still there, and I will talk about how it can still improve.
    my initial review in 2016 said that a lot of the mechanics were good. I feel that it has only improved,with blizzard slowly tuning it so that the online feel is much more cohesive. Each hero feels a bit more consistent, with viability and strategy matching the map and skills you're on. i also appreciate the continued optimization. It still runs beautifully and i think that it does stand head and shoulders with DOOM/Warframe as one of the best running games you can get. Blizzard also gets a thumbs up for allowing server browser, better custom modes, arcade modes. These are the things that every multiplayer shooter should have and I'm glad that these features are now available. Servers are better, though i still recommend only playing with friends in the same region.
    However, i still have a few problems. Toxic players are part of any online game, but dealing with people who queue together is a hassle and I leave games to avoid toxic groups. The graphics are still far too flashy, making it difficult to pinpoint targets.

    I'm not entirely sure what to think of Overwatch.
    It's a competitive shooter with an insane level of love and polish (like virtually all Blizzard games). Underneath however it just seems to be an underwhelming TF2 clone, defend or attack an objectives and level up.

    The leveling up is pointless too as you just get appearance packs. You don't actually get to customize your load-out or anything like you can with Team Fortress.

    I think I'll be trying out Battleborn again once the majority of the technical issues have been fixed. Right now I believe Overwatch is absolutely not worth the asking price and you should wait unless competitive shooters are really your thing. Overwatch doesn't try to do anything innovative or different for that matter compared to similar objective based shooters.

    Is it fun? Yes, when your team is playing with the correct heroes.
    The caveat: You will be utterly annihilated if just one or two people from your team play the wrong characters.

    It's a very unbalanced game by design it seems, I can see what Blizzard were going for but in practice matches simply revolve around playing the correct character more than actually playing well. Heroes which aren't defenders cannot do much good on their own which is to be expected but requires complete team co-operation which is an unrealistic expectation unless you're playing with friends.

    I don't recommend this game unless you have friends you're willing to play and co-operate with.

The only thing that I saw that Overwatch did sort of well was the amount of characters and the HUD, yet the HUD was more clunky than a broken SUV. I was just overall upset from the game after playing a few matches. I'm very disappointed that a huge team by the name of Blizzard could be easily beaten down by a team of almost 13. The awards it got at The Game Awards were screwy as heck, with Warframe winning the vote by taking more than two thirds of the pie chart, yet Overwatch winning due to straight up popularity. Then Blizzard treats all the players like children, and banned a competitive Torbjorn main, who was one of, if not, the best Torb main, that player being Fuey500. The soundtrack sounded boring, though fitting the style of characters a bit, just boring. And people say starting Warframe is a bit newbie-unfriendly. Just another game under a big developer. Expand

    This is either a poorly balanced moba without creeps, or a mediocre FPS with obnoxious special abilities. You decide.

    There is zero character progression, cheaters are common, speech is policed in a creepy way, and new content crawls along at a pathetic pace.

    I originally pre-ordered the Game and have been playing since Beta.

    I am sad to give this Game such a Low Score as I had my hopes up high for this FPS.

    Blizzard is generally a company with excellent Games and outstanding quality, however Overwatch is no such thing.

    Originally Overwatch was a first person MOBA Game that required team play and team communication to win. With different Heroes being good at different Things in their own Way. This used to be its Soul, which sadly has been completely destroyed.

    Quick Play is now just a mode for you to try out heroes and get lucky. Arcade surprisingly is where people actually try and win, because each third win will get you a lootbox, for up to 3 Lootboxes.

    Competitive Mode is completely destroyed, thanks to smurfs and Boosters. You can go and google "overwatch boosting" and find millions of people that boost you up to any rank you want via their smurf accounts. This is especially frustrating when you try and want to get better in the game by ranking up. To explain this a little bit better this is the current state:
    Grandmasters & Master cant connect to anybody that isnt within 500SR Range, however if they make a new account they can play with anybody they want and stomp any SR below them.

    This Game does not require team play anymore, thanks to heroes being nerfed to either being unplayable or buffed to do the max dps possible (yes even the medics). Whats the point in taking Widowmaker a defense hero on defense? If Ana the medic sniper can do more Damage.

    The Game is not only incredibly unbalanced it is also rather unfair, especially when it comes to matchmaking.

    As long as smurfes arent banned from the Game the Competitive Mode will never work correctly.

    It seems Overwatchs Priority lays on one thing and one thing only, Lootboxes & Money. As they showed recently by adding a new currency you can only get by paying real money. Microstransactions in a 60€ Game is absolutely disgusting.

    So is Overwatch recommandable? Not at all, Overwatch has lost its Soul and its Charm. The Developer Team has been arguing within development and it shows its lack of love towards the game. Heroes have been completely rehauled making the game even more unbalanced then it was before.

    If it doesnt speak in Dollar Signs Overwatch does not care what you have to say. When they say they listen to the community, they mean we listen to the 1 percent of streamers and League players.

    When Mercy first got her complete revamp there was a 200+ page thread of people being against it, but nothing.

    The Team of Overwatch has completely gone off track and using it just to get money. Do not buy the game and dont support such greed!

    Before reading ALL OF IT, it is a biased approach to the game (And other FPS games), read it with that in mind please.

    Overwatch is a take on the FPS genre create by Blizzard. It is meant to give a fast, exciting, and teamwork orientated environment. However, this review is on my experiences with the game, tossed in with very personal opinions. This 'rant' (you can say) is for a smaller and fresh audience to the fps genre (Like I am).

    This game has a learning curve that is not present with other non-fps games (Well, obviously, let me touch on it a bit more). If you are new on the fps genre, you are probably aren't aware of the most basic (And in my case, hard to learn) fundamentals of fps games. Checking your flanks, having steady aim, strafing, all while the game is so fast-paced, that you forget about it (or have difficulty, I was on a controller, I rather prefer keyboard). This can lead to other fps veterans to kill you on the spot with your predictable movements. Things like this can affect your mind, while getting frustrated on why it isn't working out.

    Another aspect I want to dig into is the mental strength you require. If you are starting this game as your first fps, you have a massive cliff to climb. While you struggle with the basics, you are, to say it bluntly, a very likely burden for your team. This leads to losing, which happens a lot when starting, possibly flattening your confidence. This can lead to negative emotions.

    Lastly, frustratingly playing the game with no visible enjoyment. Play this as your first FPS game can be like dealing with an annoying associate of yours. You can do so much, then before you know it, it can lead to a severely toxic atmosphere. This was me dealing with it myself (along with others playing the game).

    Overall, Overwatch is a game that was born from an idea from Blizzard. It can be a hard and frustrating experience. Don't get this wrong, at times it is a rather fun game; it is just very difficult to squeeze out its enjoy-ability in the over-competitive, skill-lacking mindset of people like me. I hope you get some great insight out of what I have wrote.

Я понимаю, что многие из них были оставлены ещё аж год назад, когда игра была немного другой, но как можно назвать Overwatch неуклюжим клоном TF2 ?? И большинство этих отзывов не имеет никакой конструктивной критики, это просто поливание грязью...
    Ещё больше меня раздражают комментарии типа :"эта игра должна быть бесплатной". Почему?? Если OW должна быть f2p, то за игру в CS:GO вам вообще должны платить деньги!

    Я играю в OW уже почти 2 года, то есть с его релиза (сделал предзаказ). За это время много чего поменялось: добавили новые карты, персонажей, разные облики, правили баланс (хоть и не всегда удачно). Также есть полно отличных короткометражек и официальных комиксов по игре, рекомендую их почитать! Играю на ранге "Алмаз" начиная со второго сезона. Могу с уверенностью сказать, что обычно негативные отзывы оставляют, так сказать, нубы. То есть они ноют потому, что не разобрались в механике игры или не умеют контрить определённых героев, из-за чего появляется их любимый дисбаланс. Кстати, негативных людей на низких рангах тоже намного больше.

    Сейчас в игре почти всё идеально, но как и большинство онлайн игр она бывает сильно выводит из себя, из-за чего хочется винить игру, а не свой скилл или везение.

    Единственные проблемы: бан за мейнерство, даже если ты играешь хорошо и, пожалуй, небольшой дисбаланс отдельных героев. Но так как меня эти проблемы не затронули, то я ставлю 10/10.

    It would be a solid game. But you should expect a less buggy game and especially a server with less random disconnects. The character are rather balanced and the events are entertaining. Still the other flaws just pull it down. Don't get me started on the ranking system and the matchmaking.

    This is an incomplete game, it has only multiplayer and to me it is NOT even fun to play. This game has the level of complexity for retarded monkeys. But the real problem here is how Activision dares to put the **** damn lootboxes on top of a paid game that does not even include a freaking campaign. If that **** is not enough, it is the fact that you get to see how this gameThis is an incomplete game, it has only multiplayer and to me it is NOT even fun to play.

If that **** is not enough, it is the fact that you get to see how this game gets rated so high as best sports game over and over when it is NOT and it is crystal clear that Activision is buying these titles. It is a disgrace for the gaming industry to see this type of low standard. PS, the game is not even fun imo, after some battles you are already bored. Expand

    Overwatch 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.

    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.

    Overwatch 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.
