    For all the time and money I've spent trusting you, it's the least I can do to give you the props you actually deserve. Uninstalled for the first time ever, it will never be installed again. I hope Blizzard will disappear altogether, it's a joke of a studio, you people make Ubisoft look good.

    OW2 started as a bait and switch, and has lingered in a disguised beta for 10 months. Game polish was completely ignored for the sake of maximizing MTX sales. This franchise has changed from blizzard's recent darling to a zombie husk to satisfy the income of corporate board members.

    Not to mention the company abused staff (one person died by suicide) during all of OW1. Any positive

Remember the lootboxes? God it was fun grinding for the legendary skins, it's why people played a lot of competitive, you could practically get 2 legendary skins a week if you were a diehard grinder. In this game, grind for 8 **** months straight with no day missed else you gotta wait an extra day, and school exists people, it's gonna keep you busy. Secondly this game's balancing is the worst thing ever, they just roll the dice on a cup with a character and buff them by whatever number the dice rolls. There were many games with fair balancing and good multiplayer, like Team fortress 2 actually listened to it's fans and nerfed almost every weapon to the point where everyone can enjoy playing. Meanwhile this game's devs, they are not even trying at all. and hell the co-op missions are here but you need to spend 15 extra euros for that. The devs have no remorse and no shame, they kept saying they were excited to bring the game to us, yeah they were excited to steal our money if that makes more sense. Seriously, if this game could've had 6 years of development like TF2 had for 9 years, it would've been hot **** This game deserves a 1/10 for me, for the simple fact that it can run. Have a good day to you all.

    P.S this game is so dog**** that even Miniherino director's cut is better lol

    It DOES NOT work with 5v5, it's EXTREMELY frustrating to play now, there used to be a push pull to the game with 2 tanks now there is an extreme precure on healers and the tank, if either a healer or the tank dies, everyone dies... Gunplay is still good game looks better in some aspects.

    Microtransactions, just to get new heroes is insane, 5v5 fundamentally doesn't work, ranked is broken I was a diamond player in OW 1 and in OW 2 I now have to work from bronze and up with broken team synergies and even when carrying a team when I have 40 Kills 15 Deaths in my games, team has 15 at most and the healers are at 20.00 healing but somehow bronze is still the rank that is reached.

    People are flaming healers for not being able to heal fast enough even when they are spamming, because 1 tank can't tank enough which also puts precure on everyone else, and some people are just don't understand that they need to use cover and corners to stay alive, but the game is still fundamentally broken because it wasn't made for it.

    0/10 I Really tried to play this game and love it like I did 1 but I give up, it's just not fun anymore, if only they had the option to still play ow1 :'c

    Update: So after royally **** up the game they have now in 2023 announced that the main reason for Overwatch 2 which is the PVE that was promised is now cancelled, so yeah they should have kept the the game as it was and just added visual updates, heroes, maps and such instead of removing the systems that worked and then left the entire player base disappointed and lied to, people spent their money and time on this game only to get shafted by bad decision, planning and false promises.

    - literally only reason to add number 2 to game, PvE was dropped after release
    - turned paid game to f2p screwing people who bought it
    - borderline p2w, due to new characters being behind paywall (you can get them through achivements sometimes too, thats why ive written borderline)

    Let's start with the fact that the game is ruled by the lgbt community and tries to impose it on its audience in every possible way. Pve in the game is terrible and it feels very strongly that the game was made not with love, and on the sod. And the price of course for this game is too high.

    Just a reminder that OW2 cancelled the only reason it was called as "2nd entry" in the series - Single Player content.
    This moment alone deserves 0/10

    The game is fun, especially for new players. Old players from OW 1 are angry for some reasons. As a player who started on season 5 I find it amazing amd engaging and fun to play. Season 6 looks cool as well.

    Game is worse in every way possible than the first. Smaller teams, faster combat, character abilities matter less. Character changes that had to be done to try to balance smaller teams just made the characters a shell of their former self.

    Blizzard just chasing the dragon of other games instead of doing their tried and true method of taking something already done and making it better.

    This game is incredible, addictive, I play it since day one and the 5v5 formula is so much better than 6v6, suppression of lootboxes is perfect, I prefer way more a battlepass style, if I want to retribute the studio by buying items, I want to know what I pay for. And the season 6 tomorrow with PVE, new hero, new modes, new maps, OMG this will be absolutely insane, I can't wait !

It is a shell of what it once was. When it started it was a fantastic quality shooter with crisp and satisfying gunplay, people playing it were optimistic, regular content updates and even though it introduced a controversial at the time loot box system, they provided a substantial amount of in game opportunities to receive loot boxes and get skins. In my level of play, I was able to get every skin in the game for free, but I contributed money anyway to support the developers and the pr team. Time went on, some devs left, Jeff left, promises, were broken, Blizzard was bought by Scumdivision. Overwatch 1 turned into an empty shell devioid of players, optimism, and updates for the Autumn and Winter of its life. The remaining players were depressed, mean spirited, angry, bigoted, and more. It was demoralizing. Overwatch 2 gave old players and new players a ray of hope for improvement. But more controversy. Blizz's silent support of the CCP. Blizz lied about PVE, the main reason OW2 became a thing. Predatory monetization with the facade of F2P. The most disgustingly disappointing and predatory battle pass system I've ever seen. Expensive shop skins. No way to get skins for free in any meaningful way anymore. Bigotry and hatred abound in this "F2P" hellscape. As an LGBT+ person I'm disgusted by the lack of enforcement of their so called "progressive" views that they always espouse in their announcements page. There seems to be a skeleton crew of staff. No way to contact Blizz for complaints. A terrible metascore and overall perception of what remains. Microsoft has little hope of salvaging this game after what Activision has done to it. Best of luck to them. I highly recommend staying away from this game like it is the plague. Expand

We lost archives for this, which was one of the best events in the game. There is no denying how much Blizzard does not care about their player base now. 6 years and this is the worst state the game has ever been in. How the mighty has fallen. I would give it a -10 now if i could.

    Original: I was one of the few that could play at launch and honestly as a long time gamer of overwatch/apex legends/fortnight blizzard completely dropped the ball on this. There is no real reward for playing anymore, the battle pass is worse then halos attempt, the ui leaves much to be desired, and while I understand the loot box argument, I think getting rid of it completely was one of the stupidest things they did. While moving to 5v5 was the right thing to do since I hated the double shield meta, the decrease in kill time has turned it in to a dps rush, good one v ones has turned in to whoever gets the first hit usually wins and as a healer you will feel useless trying to keep anything up that’s targeted by 2 people or more. Also, due to kill time now sombra/tracers are unaposed going after healers/backend, you will just auto die and most healers do not have the dps to defend themselves anymore. Due to all the changes games have become very lopsided, You either run over the opposing team or get run over. Team kills, which used to be rare in OW1, are now common and demoralizing. As for new maps, they are ambitious and too big for this pace of gameplay, you will not see 1/2 of them since your all but required to stay as a pack now to win any fights. Finally the monetization is as bad as EA Star Wars battlefield 2. It’s like blizzard got a list of everything that pissed off gamers over the past 5 years and put it in this game. Officially petitioning for OW1 back, double shield meta and all. They had so much to look at when making this game and ignored it all.

All of the money grubbing microtransactions were completed and polished, but the game content everyone wanted was not. Boring after a small amount of time. Overwatch 2 is not a good game, it is a Blizzard ATM for suckers.

At all, just press a button in a 70 degree circle and the enemy is beginning to die, the game feels like an ability waiting sum and characters have next to no mechanical depth, annoying '1 2' combos to instakill enemies, things like roadhog shotgun hit pretty much being able to kill every hero and even if they don't die they still are left with next to no health which pretty much implies death and those combos take low amount of skill to pull off, overall the game has low skill floors to characters yet the mechanics are confusing and the abilities are overwhelming to learn and a low skill ceiling meaning you probably get bored of each character soon enough and plus there's only so few characters in the meta. Also don't get me started on the micro transactions, I won't get too much into it but it costs a whole lot and you get very little and yes there is also a battle pass (very bad imo). Tf2 has more depth mechanical skill and gamesense and while yes, competitively, Tf2 is kind of **** it makes for a waaaaaaay better experience in general with easy to understand mechanics, relatively low skill floors and sky rocketing skill ceilings, each character has countless of little quirks that when learnt and executed correctly in the right situations can turn a whole fight around and be rewarding and fun to play as and against, it also encourages actual mechanical skill (aiming) to be involved and you can only play one character and not get bored for weeks at a time.

They destroyed comp for people who care about the game and changed the events from a "Play to get boxes of loot for outfits" to "New event give us 30 dollars". Each Battle pass is a waste of potential. Every single skin that was once completely free to obtain through loot boxes are now behind 10-20 dollar pay walls. What a disgusting fall from grace. Now with OWL being eliminated as well I feel so bad for the team of developers that were there since OW1 and slowly watched it die as the man in charge slowly burned their game away. I bless them and curse the higher ups. What a waste. Expand

    By overwriting Overwatch 1, a game that was worth every penny, with this F2P "buy our newest cosmetics" fest of a game, they've lost all of what was great about the game. It's sad to see, as I poured hours of time into Overwatch, only to have it all sapped away with advertisements for new skins. I'm done with this company. They won't be getting any more of my money.

    Ridiculous monetization aside, the update/upgrade replaces the first game so we can't play it anymore, and not everything carried over, so we lose some things we earned. I loved OW1 and played it a few times a week for years, and if you hadn't forced an upgrade on me I could just go back to playing OW1 and ignore the all-around inferior sequel, but now I just don't play OW.

    I have been playing Overwatch since the first game came out, and I was excited to try the sequel. However, I was quickly let down by the terrible matchmaking system that ruins the game experience. The matchmaking is so unbalanced that you either get stomped by a team of much higher skill level, or you get matched with teammates who have no clue what they are doing.

However, I was quickly let down by the terrible matchmaking system that ruins the game experience. The matchmaking is so unbalanced that you either get stomped by a team of much higher skill level, or you get matched with teammates who have no clue what they are doing. It's frustrating and unfair, and it makes the game feel like a chore rather than a fun activity.

    Blizzard seems to not care about fixing this issue, as they never communicate with the players or address their feedback. Every new season, the matchmaking gets worse and worse, and Blizzard says nothing. They are too busy making cosmetic items and new heroes that nobody asked for, instead of focusing on the core gameplay and balance. They have lost touch with their fanbase, and they have ruined a potentially great game.

    Overwatch 2 is a disappointing sequel that fails to deliver on its promises. It has some good features, such as the PvE mode and the improved graphics, but they are overshadowed by the awful matchmaking that makes the game unplayable. I do not recommend this game to anyone who values their time and money. Save yourself the frustration and avoid this game at all costs.

    If that wasn't enough, the skins are absurdly expensive and repetitive, the battle pass is short and with very few interesting things and the game is clogged with toxic people, who are sowing bullying, hate speech and suicide/self-harm and if you report it to Blizzard, they do not ban the player, much less respond to the complaint.

    RUN AWAY FROM THIS GAME THAT ONLY WANTS YOUR MONEY BUT HAS NOTHING TO OFFER BUT ANGER!

AND YOU WANT TO TRUST AND SUPPORT COMPANY THAT LIES BLATANTLY LIKE THIS? Whoever bought diablo 4 - YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!!! Whoever buys WOW - YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!!!

    Do NOT SUPPORT BLIZZARD in any way imaginable!!! LET THE COMPANY ROT AND DIE!!!

    -------------------------------

    I had to create an account here finally just to inform everyone on the state of this game called Overwatch 2.

    Overwatch 2 is a multiplayer online pvp hero shooter game with no anti-cheat system, toxic community and no support.

    Features:
    - There is no anti-cheat in a game that is already infested with cheaters.
    - There are a lot of "smurfs". People who are getting destroyed on their relatively high rank main account so they make a new one and ruin the game for the new players and the casual players.
    - You will get banned for calling out cheaters and smurfs.
    - There are places where the game is flashy or too colorful which is dangerous to some people.
    - The community in the game is incredibly toxic and they are ass-licking the corrupted company that made the game.
    - When you have any issues, the support will not help you.
    - It's essentially the first game, it's even using the same files from the first game.
    - The servers are terrible and you will experience disconnects, queues, connection issues.
    - Unbalanced gameplay. Some heroes are clearly better than others.
    - It's all about the grind. If you want to obtain something in the game you have to play a lot to get it.
    - If you want to obtain something quick, you have to pay money for it.
    - The interface of the game has been made apparently in Paint 3D. They couldn't even put anti-aliasing on the letters. It looks ugly and not made by professionals. The hud is so minimal and simplistic, feels like a game in alpha stage of development made by amateurs.
    - Made for e-sports and nobody cares about e-sports.
    - The promised Single-player Campaign that will come with the game is NOT in the game.
    - The promised new features and cosmetics, better visuals etc. are NOT in the game.
    - The company is milking what's left of the community.
    - The company never listens to the community. All they are inserting into game through updates are cosmetic items, nothing else.
    - You CANNOT play the game unless you give them your phone number for the purpose of SMS verification. Apparently tons of phone service providers have blacklisted blizzard sms verification as spam. In turn blizzard has blacklisted those providers. So you are out of luck if you are using phone provider who has been blacklisted.
    - The company is deleting forum posts that put it in negative light.
    - You will get banned if you speak about all this in-game or on the forums.
    - Will you believe a company who does all of the above? Have they lied about being ddosed? Are they not spending any money on servers and just doing the bare minimum to keep the game running? Have they lied about banwaves? Are cheaters getting banned or are they letting everyone play because there is barely anyone playing? Are they mistreating their employees to keep the pigs in high positions richer and more privileged?

    Let's look at the positives about the game:
    - It's optimized well, it can run on a toaster at this point. But it has to so it can reach as many people as possible.
    - I like Mercy.

    Blizzard has once again showed us how corrupted and corporate they have become. There is no care for the customer or the employees who work hard every day. It's all about making ALL the money to feed the pigs at the top of the company.

    Nobody should be supporting this company or giving them any money.

    There is no reason to call this game a sequel. Is just an empty version of Overwatch "1", a total disappointment

    I used to love Overwatch and pre-ordered the game for a full price. What Blizzard did to the game is a robbery. They robbed us the game we once bought to strip us off our money even more on a regular basis. I am not buying any more games from Activision Blizzard!

    It's so unfortunate, that indie-developer studio blizzard couldn't keep up and create the content, that was f**king main seller of the franchise, and afterwards it became obvious, that somehow they're still running out of money, so the small group of people, who are responsible for the whole project, that they need to "tighten your belts" and make the previous free content be blocked by aIt's so unfortunate, that indie-developer studio blizzard couldn't keep up and create the content, that was f**king main seller of the franchise, and afterwards it became obvious, that somehow they're still running out of money, so the small group of people, who are responsible for the whole project, that they need to "tighten your belts" and make the previous free content be blocked by a paywall.

    Spare yourself of this pathetic excuse of a game. Just search the internet for relevant adult videos and you got everything worth having that is born out of this game.

    Bad price. It's not worth the name Part Two. It's still part one, just a little worse.

    Absolute scam, do not buy. Being promised a single player mode for YEARS, only to take it away. Expensive cosmetics, even compared to OVERWATCH 1. DO NOT BUY

    People really seem to hate this one due to the devs, but all in all it's not a bad game.

    1. It is not a new game. It is a large update that is being advertised as a sequel. It's painful hearing professional critics say comments like "it really *feels* like the original Overwatch"... that's because it *IS* the original Overwatch. League of Legends had a bigger overhaul in the past and they didn't tout their game as League of Legends 2 when doing so.

    Let's even compare this

League of Legends had a bigger overhaul in the past and they didn't tout their game as League of Legends 2 when doing so.

    Let's even compare this to an actual sequel from Activision-Blizzard, Call of Duty, using MW vs. MW2 by Infinity Ward. There are all new operators, maps, guns, significant changes to gunplay, movement, loadout systems, among additions like swimming and water combat. On top of all that, they have a completely new mode (DMZ), campaign, WZ2.0, and more. This is just a quick overview to give a comparison to what you are getting in Overwatch 2, leading to my next point:

    2. It is difficult to fathom how this is several years of work. Even for a patch, after this long, this is a small number of additional maps. There is only a single new mode (Push) which is okay, it's a slight twist on what we have as regular gameplay, but it's hardly innovative and does not add much variety.

    Removal of at least one map, maybe 6 new maps, a few of which are unique to the new Push mode. If you've played Overwatch for years, it's not exactly fun to come back for Overwatch 2 to play the same exact map you've played except they moved the directional light a few degrees so it's sunset instead. I'm not playing the new Call of Duty finding myself playing the same map as the last.

    It has been confirmed by Blizzard, in the most lawyer-speech sort of way as usual, that the supposedly upcoming PvE mode will not be released as a $60 box, but rather they have "shifted [their] model now to start releasing things seasonally". This is clearly so that people will end up paying even MORE THAN $60 to obtain all the content that was originally planned to be a single $60 purchase. Any thought that they are providing you the customer any more by changing to this monetization model is gaslighting, which I will elaborate more on.

    3. There are 3 new heroes, again, a sad number to add as with the maps. To go deeper into this, there is far too much concern by the development team to have balanced heroes all the time and provide expensive promotional material for each and every character they introduce. Perfect balance is unachieveable, and it would be better for the FUN of the game to add way more, especially for a sequel. They should have dropped another 21 heroes (the number of heroes in the original Overwatch) and embraced the chaos as there was when OW originally released.

    There has been a distinct lack of variety and creativity even among the 3 we have gotten. Considering the last few additions to the roster, I suspect this will be ongoing. Two have repeated origins, we have yet another Japanese character who can run up walls and has magical abilities based off a spirit animal, questionably stereotypical of Japanese people in the way that Afro-Haitians would have voodoo magic. We have another Austrailian character from Junkertown.

    I still await the actually creative variety of characters we were teased with for Overwatch 1 when it was announced at BlizzCon 2014, with more shown to us at BlizzCon 2017. If you have not seen them, I suggest you take a look so you can understand just how lackluster the character's we've actually received have been. Watch our 4th new hero be yet another a variation of a hero we had...

    4. In addition to the change in business model for Overwatch 2's PVE mode, the F2P monetization model OW2 has changed to is also predatory, as you would expect from Blizzard especially following Diablo Immortal this year. Prices for skins are absurdly high, many are minor changes from their base (a different jacket on Kiriko for example). Other games with a similar business model are FAR more rewarding for playing without buying anything, Fortnite being a great example, where you can generally purchase the premium Battle Pass just by earning V-Bucks via the free Battle Pass, in which you will earn more V-Bucks where you can buy the next season's premium Battle Pass, and earn more V-Bucks, of which you can of course buy whatever you want from the store. Existing rewards from OW1 were not updated to match the quality of the new OW2 skins (the faces for example have not changed). They have been deceptive by saying they were updated in any fashion, it was only the materials which are GLOBALLY updated with the engine. The amount of time it takes to earn anything is hysterically long, literally months to earn one thing. Paying $60 will not equate to the value of purchasing OW1 for $60.

    I never usually review games. The PVE mode will have to be incredible to make up for this dumpsterfire.

    Edit: 6/8/2023 - Coming back to this, I am solidifying that this game is a 0/10 with the news about OW2 PvE having been canceled.

    DO NOT PLAY. Incredibly blatant cash grab of a game. Company deleted the 1st game just to make sure you couldn't play anything better. They replaced it with a lie about a story mode, insane shop prices for skins that used to be free, bare atoms of crumbs of free content dripped down every season, taking away a player spot from each team, a garbage new game mode, removal of maps, bugsDO NOT PLAY.

They replaced it with a lie about a story mode, insane shop prices for skins that used to be free, bare atoms of crumbs of free content dripped down every season, taking away a player spot from each team, a garbage new game mode, removal of maps, bugs everywhere, removing characters from the game for large periods of time in a counter role based team shooter, and lack of any ways to make or feel like you made progress in any area of the game. This game wants your money and not the 60 dollars you payed for the better 1st game that it SHOT DEAD. The company is UNTRUSTWORTHY, DOES NOT CARE about you or your time, and wants to wring you dry of EVERY SINGLE PENNY.

    Please for the love of games as a medium and for the respect for your time, DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME.

    One of my favorite games turned into a scrappile of recycled, uninspired and undesirable content. All the changes made to make the game quicker and dumber, no tanks synergies anymore, no actual ranking system and ofc plenty more toxicity from the players which goes always terribly unchecked.
    Competitive has nothing competitive anymore and the battle pass is a scam. Please delete this

    Они отняли у нас уютную 1-ую часть, обещая ПВЕ. Это, по большому счёту, была основная их мотивация, якобы.
    Теперь они отняли и ПВЕ.

    Overwatch 2 is a free to play game, and I’d definitely recommend trying it out if you haven’t to see how you feel about the gameplay and to see how well it runs on Steam Deck. Despite its flaws, it is still worth playing, but some of the decisions with how certain content has been handled in-game are weird. Overwatch 2 is yet to reach the highs of the original Overwatch, but it is still a great multiplayer game to play on Steam Deck. I enjoyed Overwatch 2 quite a bit on Switch despite the visual and performance cutbacks, but it really shines on Steam Deck.

    While the game is called Overwatch 2, this all seems more like a transition to a full new game. The biggest changes are dropping the 6v6 gameplay in favour of a much more exciting 5v5 format. Three new heroes are also available, along with a new game mode, but for a final and real verdict, everyone should wait for the upcoming PvE segment.

    Overwatch 2 delivers high-octane multiplayer gameplay and a wholly improved version of the much-loved hero shooter. Now that the dust has settled, it’s becoming clear that despite a number of teething issues, the game manages to do what many sequels struggle to; build upon a successful game, and make it even better.
