    Loved how overwatch looked. When you were on fire it was distinct, when you killed someone it was more known. Now it’s the opposite and just overall not very appealing.

    It could be the best game in the world but making it a stipulation to have a contractually post post paid phone plan to play is classist. Blizzards motive is to sell user data, not to enrich the player experience. It has no bearing on the gameplay, and only serves to gatekeep and exclude players. It is the opposite of the spirit of gaming and play the Blizzard should strive for.

Never have I ever seen a **** launch from Blizzard in the 27 years I've been playing their games. They have lost the plot, it's not about making good games anymore and building a culture around their titles, I think Blizzard has joined the scum model of EA and trying to turn their fans into ATM's. Really sad to see a company that was so great and supported their fan base go down this route. I wish the dev's good luck, but the PM's and and other senior staff that thought it was a good idea to steal players money and turn off Overwatch 1 and shovel this **** out the door. I hope you guy's feel the full might of your community you building. You will be held responsible. The IP you idiots are **** with has a proud fan base, good luck.… Expand

    Not only ruined favorite characters, like Bastion as an example, but also took away the option to play a game already purchased and paid for and well liked to replace it with this steaming pile of garbage. Blizzard, you done screwed up. This is not to even mention the botched launch. This is horrible. If Overwatch wasn't completely dead before, it is now.

    the game became unplayable, not only because of the servers, but also for the gameplay that became only a "push push push". Tanks that are not tanks anymore, they do only damage, and the prove of this is that the only tank with a shield is reinhardt (infact no one uses him anymore).
    I gave 1 point only because junker queen is fun to play.

    I have time to write a review while I'm sitting in line.
    Blizzard has had this problem for 10 years since Diablo 3 and they still can't figure out how to need more servers before release because a small indie studio doesn't have the money to rent more server space.
    It was also impossible to preload the game, which is why the download speed after the release was about 1 MB. And    I have time to write a review while I'm sitting in line.

    And against the background of all this, one can only be glad that they did not change the game, because you understand that modern Blizzards cannot cope even with such trivial tasks, which means that they are already unable to make a new high-quality game.

    Their modern team can only be offended and spoil the fans' favorite games, and they are no longer able to do something worthwhile.    … Expand

    The game plays fine enough, buggy and in need of some minor tweaks, but fine. Minus the awful queue times. In general, it's upsetting.

    They removed so many good functions (LFG, Loot Boxes, Stay as Team, On fire. etc) and I'm honestly just distraught that they took so much flavor out of the game. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy the game, but this **** is so greedy. It's not the same game that I played just days ago, it's a sad downgrade.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Overwatch 2 - показатель халатного отношения разработчиков не только к самой игре, но и игрокам. Я большой фанат этой франшизы, и только поэтому начну с плюсов. Добавление новых героев и карт, но опять же, это можно было сделать и в первом Overwatch. Улучшение графики. На этом всё.
    Перейдём к минусам.
    Как только мы заходим в Overwatch 2, нас встречает экран очереди. То есть, разработчики запланировали дату выпуска игры, удалили Overwatch 1, и не позаботились даже о стабильности и нагрузке серверов. Теперь чтобы поиграть в любимую игру, приходится ждать более часа. И то, если вам повезёт и вас не выбьет.
    Если вы все-таки переживете первый круг ада вместе с другими 2000 игроками в очереди, вы увидите «прекрасный» главный экран с кривым шрифтом, и лишними анимациями. Также убрали какую-либо анимацию похвал других игроков, ни звука, ни анимации, ничего. О балансе в этой игре даже говорить смысла нет, разработчики просто выпустили игру по дедлайну, абсолютно не готовую. Такое ощущение что выпустили не игру, а бета тест.    … Expand

The game had one of the worst launches I have ever seen in my life, still being broke asl before Blizzard decided to release, resulting in them getting DDOSed twice. They won't respond to inquiries about linking old accounts with most of the cosmetics. I have a support ticket that has been ignored for 6 days. I won't even mention them requiring you to register your phone number and recording transcripts of every word you'll ever say in an Overwatch 2 match chat. Overwatch 2 took whatever good was left in Overwatch and stomped it into submission with the sole intention of preying on you and sucking money from you like a parasite.

What used to be a fun game and series has now dropped everything that made the game fun. One of the biggest parts of Overwatch was its loot boxes. Although I love the decision to remove loot boxes from the game, there is no longer any way to obtain cosmetics for free. A 3-year-old skin now costs about $20. For someone who bought the $100 dollar version of Overwatch 1 I no longer am able to unlock the skins previously in the game, no I have to buy them. There are no more levels, and credits are no longer obtainable. For owning Overwatch 1 you are given 2 skins that I will probably never use and you are able to use the new hero instantly. I think I should at least get the battle pass for free as well. You can however obtain the premium currency for free, but only 500 which is about $5 worth. This is not enough to buy the battlepass and this only encourages you to buy more credits. These are terrible mechanics to steal people's money. Blizzard does not need any more money, they are a 50 billion dollar company, please stop defending them.

    I fear that this is the same game with one less tank, a slight modernisation of graphics, and content that should've just come to OW1.

    The only reason this came out as a sequel is to transform the game into a free to play with ultra greedy transactions (that are NOT micro by any means, 40 dollars for a battle pass every season). The 5v5 with one tank made the game more active and    I fear that this is the same game with one less tank, a slight modernisation of graphics, and content that should've just come to OW1.

    The only reason this came out as a sequel is to transform the game into a free to play with ultra greedy transactions (that are NOT micro by any means, 40 dollars for a battle pass every season).

    The 5v5 with one tank made the game more active and speedy, but it also severely damaged the tactical experience of OW. So many of the maps that used to be special, that required thought, pressure and poking to fight properly in, are now just another big area with outdated graphics.

    For example the first point of Kings Row, widely considered the best or top 3 best maps of OW1 by everyone, is now barely any different than any of the other maps. I used to have so many doubts on placement and pressure as a tank, so much about resource management and risk taking as a support. Now you just walk in and start blasting at the nearest enemy. The game is plain dumber.

    The maps are totally unsuited for the 5v5, although the new maps are better, all grand total of 4 of them for the roughly 40 maps of OW1. The balancing problems which killed OW1 since 2018 are not at all solved, they are equalized in the sense that now, everyone can shoot almost immediately and don't have to rely on passing tanks to do so.

    The new problem is that while you have no double shields or a tank in front of you at every pass, you rely almost entirely on your overpowered solo tank to survive. If your tank throws, you might as well see the DEFEAT screen immediately. They are so powerful and you must rely on him so much that if your tank can't diff or at least survive the other tank, you're done. As a flex but mostly support player, this reliance makes me hesitate between being the tank every game, or just stop trying.

    Also, few things have outright improved. The graphics are "modernised", they're not comparatively better. Round things are rounder like faces, models are more graphically demanding, but that's it. There are few to no super amazing visual effects. It's not like I mind, OW1 was already a clusterfk of visuals in big fights, but it drives home the point that this "sequel" has no particular value and wasn't made for technical need. Also even for an improvement, it's definitely not a 2016-2022 jump. OW1 for 2016 looked far better than OW2 for 2022. A GTX 960 could run OW1, and I'm betting a GTX 1060 can run OW2 comfortably, so it's more of a 2-3 year progress.

    Some things are inexplicably absent or worse. The glorious "on fire" status that indicated that you were doing great? Gone. The amount of damage you did on a kill? Gone. Why? Those were great and helped players a lot! The little notches on your Ultimate icon that helped see just how much you had are gone too, now it's a plain circle that fills it. It's not a big downgrade, but again, why change and make it worse? It's like the devs were told to find things to change to justify the new game, when none of that needed fixing and some was just outright great. The removal of the medal system in favour of a shared scoreboard is great though. Finally no more pointless arguments about how good or bad you're doing for your team.

    In short, the game is more or less the same, but slightly worse or better here and there. The details in UI and graphics really do not justify at all a sequel, and in every way could've been done in OW1. The downgrade in certain QoL elements is just plain bizarre (on fire status will really be missed).

    The only real changes are the 1 tank system and the financial model. The game is much less tactical and more speed and damage oriented. It feels dumber, simpler, and less profound.

    The free to play model is as greedy and predatory as ever, perhaps worse than Diablo Immortal's. This really feels like they took Overwatch, plastered some reskins, cut off one tank, completely brainwashed it from a game whose goal was to be fun, to a game that must suck as much money as possible. It's a frankensteins game to me, and my longstanding attachment to OW has almost singlehandedly disappeared in a few nights. I wanted to play OW all the time. I can barely feel anything towards OW2.

    There is an ongoing rumour that OW2 is meant to become a PvE game with great ambitions, but that it was delayed. Considering the lies of Activision Blizz on WC3 Reforged and on Diablo Immortal, I do not expect any promises to be held. But if they are, I'll amend this review when it comes out.    … Expand

I don't like the battlepass but knowing that I'll only purchase the battle passes with new characters, it's only 3 a year i believe. I do not love that we only get 3 new characters a year but i also appreciate how difficult it would be to integrate and balance a new character into the game. Losing a team member has really changed the feel of the game. It's much faster, battles feel more chaotic and fun. Also updating the speed of the characters has really changed the feel of the game. I just hope they treat this version of Overwatch better, the community needs more content, more frequently to keep players coming back. It's a pretty good start so far.… Expand

    Дикая монетизация, проблемы с интерфейсом, невозможность корректно настраивать графику и звуки (например нельзя включить звуки из первой части. новые понравились далеко не всем).

    С этой игрой всё понятно, ждём overwatch 3.

    А если серьёзно, то это плевок в лицо всем игрокам.

I also found a problem that prevented me from "enjoying" the game again - this is that this wonderful game has disappeared from my library. Launching a shortcut from the _retail_ folder from the root folder of the game helped. What else can I say, well done, Blizzard.… Expand

    Waited almost four years for this and... almost nothing changed + toxic and lazy monetization.

    Игра отличная, но… Я не признаю фритуплей и новую систему монетизации где нельзя получать скины и прочее просто играя. Серверы простаивают из-за огромных очередей. Уровней больше нет. Калибровка в соревновательном режиме на теории выглядит шикарно, на практике ужасно. 8 побед и 2 поражения, в прошлом сезоне почти дошёл до золота. Итог: мне дают вторую бронзу.

    Микротранзакций: то, что раньше было забавной игрой и серией, теперь отбросило все, что делало игру веселой. Одной из фишек Overwatch были лутбоксы. Да, у лутбоксов были проблемы. Но всё это было бесплатно и рано или поздно желанный скин можна было либо выбить, либо купить. Я лично в Overwatch 1 не задонатив ни копейки к 500 уровню повыбивал большую часть скинов. На Ангела я всё полностью купил.
    Сейчас 3-летний скин стоит около 20 долларов.
    За владение Overwatch 1 вам дается 2 скина которые я никогда не буду использовать. И вы можете мгновенно использовать нового героя "Кирико". Я думаю, что я должен хотя бы получить боевой пропуск бесплатно. Однако вы можете получить премиальную валюту бесплатно, но только 500, что составляет около 5 долларов. Этого недостаточно, чтобы купить боевой пропуск, и это только побуждает вас покупать больше кредитов. Это ужасная механика по краже денег у людей.
    Пожалуйста, перестаньте их защищать. Я видел, как многие люди защищали их в Интернете, говоря, что Overwatch нужно зарабатывать деньги, чтобы выжить.
    Они месяцами ранее выпустили Diablo Emmortal и за первые 3 дня заработали более 100 миллионов долларов.
    Бесплатная игра: с одной стороны это круто как для человека который решит своего друга позвать в игру а он никогда в неё не играл, катки ищутся быстро. Для разработчиков тоже плюс ибо будет онлайн, а дальше вливание и денег в игру.
    Минус тут только один: новая аудитория. Привет читеры, привет ещё больше смурфов, привет неадекватные школьники и привет неадекватное быдло.
    Теперь всё это увеличится в разы.
    Так вот: платная игра - была порогом входа в эту игру. Сейчас же порогом входа остаётся только системные требования игры, хотя и они не помеха сегодня.
    Нету бесплатной игры с адекватной аудиторией.
    Давайте вспомним такие игры как "Warfare", "Valorant", "Dota 2" и "Genshin Impact". В этих играх самое конченное комньюнити. И только попробуйте не согласиться.
    Плюсы игры: геймплей (процесс катки и игра за любого персонажа), графика, звуковое сопровождение и карты.
    Они решили проблему с очередями по ролям, катки находятся очень быстро, разминку не успевал включать.
    На этом всё.
    Игра получает 3/10, либо 2/5.
    Буду ли я продолжать играть? Сука да. Геймплей, графика, звуковое сопровождение с картами забрали моё сердечко и я получил колоссальное удовольствие также как и первый раз в Overwatch 1 играл.
    Жду PvE-режим.    … Expand

    Это не OVERWATCH 2, это от силы OVERWATCH 1.5. Изменений можно пересчитать по пальцам одной руки российского солдата в Украине: три новых перса(все говно бесполезное), полторы новых карты(но играть вы будете чаще всего на старых), вместо 6 человек в команде теперь 5(вообще ни на что не повлияло) и некоторых персонажей реворкнули.

    I waited for 500 players for half an hour, in the end they gave me another 800, blizzard has a lot of money, but they can't afford normal servers. Disrespect, I'll **** zero so that they know

    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.
