    Coming from Overwatch1 I played Overwatch 2 for season 1 and quit immeditately after. It feels like the game has been stripped off it's elements which made it a great game from the beginning (e.g. Ranking System, Loot Boxes, 6 vs 6 and, and and). Instead, a useless and absolutely wiorthless Battle Pass has been introduiced of which items 99% have no use. Not worth my time, sorry.

    It's absolutely a downgrade from OW1. The inflated prices for the skins and battle pass are one part, however the gameplay changes and continuing balancing issues are the real kicker.

    OW1 was build around the concept of counter play, it's the reason hero switching mid game exists. With OW2 they official said goodby to counter play - probably because it's a really bad look to lock game changers like new characters behind a pay wall if it interfers with the basic game mechanics. (It is anyway no good look tbh).

    Issue is just that counterplay is absolutely deep seated in the game, the balancing, the hero designs. Blizzard changed much around to try and get rid of it, but getting rid of a core gameplay aspect is difficult without stripping a game of it's identity. The change to 5v5 might distract from that, but that change also worsened the balancing issues and it's nowhere as noticable as with the new heroes: They play actually very well in 5v5. Just most of the original heroes don't. They were created to fill niches, to be used to counter other characters, to work in the framework of 6v6 and it's noticable. The game is in permanent need of patches and reworks and that much more as it was during OW1 times. The slow patch cycles are painful by now, and won't sustain the game for long.

    In the end OW2 is a half-baked sequel in more than one sense: It lacks the PvE mode used as original drawing point, it needs to balance the need to stay just enough like OW1 while it actually wants to be something completely different and while doing so becomes a mess that slowly breaks apart (most noticable with the decline in support players, a role that should have gotten a huge rework the moment the change to one tank was decided).

    The developers should better work fast to get the balancing issues, the stale battlepass, the bugs, the matchmaking, the imbalance between roles and the removal of actual nice game features (like the end of game cards) under control. Maybe a completely different game instead of a sequel might have worked better as it wouldn't have come with as much baggage.    … Expand

They decided to go Free to Play as an Excuse to try and milk as much money as possible from the playerbase, damaging both competitive integrity as well as the game experience in the process. Everything in the shop is overpriced whether or not you can grind for them, and Locking heroes behind a battlepass, forcing you to either pay up or Grind for weeks just to keep up in a competitive is not acceptable, in a Hero based game it is ridiculous and has a net negative on the game, providing no silver lining besides that the execs get even more money

    They made the decision to remove one tank player from each team as well as most CC and some barriers in the game. However they have utterly fail to change and redesign the roster in order to fit with this new environment, causing a meta that heavily favored The Flankers and precision based players while severely weakening the already unpopular but very necessary support and tank players.


    The game also failed to live up to even the bare minimum expectations, players have been waiting 3yrs for this and yet i can name all of the new things OW2 has in a single Breath.

    This game gets 0 as it is an overall downgrade in almost every aspect from OW1, the game it replaced and all of these new greed based changes are compounded by the fact that players have been patient waiting several years for this suffering through extremely long content drought that was al in vain.    … Expand

Getting rid of after game cards and being on fire removes so much. Push maps are designed to make games as long as possible, making it worse than 2cp ever was. Endorsement levels are at an all time low because you don't see cards highlighting how well someone was doing compared to everyone else. I don't even want to get into how bad the loot box and battle pass system is. 5v5 wouldve been great if they actually made tanks feel like tanks, instead of just further incentivizing tanks to act like DPS with more HP and call it "making space" instead of being the only defensive specialists the game has. The game has become who can kill the supports the fastest.… Expand

    Very unrewarding game. Unlike Overwatch 1, you don't get loot boxes from just playing where you can get the skins you want. Every new hero is locked behind a Battle pass where you either pay $10 to play it immediately or grind for weeks to play it.

    The switch to 5v5 was fresh and fun at first, but as time has gone on the game has shown itself to not be very fun. Especially if you're a tank, or support main. If you're a tank, be prepared to swap in an awful rock, paper, scissors that heavily favors the first tank to swap due to ult economy. Support?

    Graphics, and sound are great. Character design is solid, though the balance is atrocious. Never a good sign when they buff a character while believing they nerfed it.

    F2P has locked everything behind an overpriced paywall. There's zero meaningful progression, and the game's matchmaker must be drunk to justify it's choices.

    Games are either EZ Claps, or impossible. Fun, challenging games that could go either way? They're so rare that I can't even remember experiencing them.

    There's pretty much zero feedback in comp after games now, so it feels like QP. I get what they were trying to do by hiding your SR, but it's a terrible change. Nevermind, that your shown rank is make believe BS that has absolutely zero impact on your hidden Match Making Rating.

    It didn't really bother me for this game to be just one big update for the previous one, instead of full sequel. In the end, it's free and there is still going to be (I hope at least) PVE story mode.

    But the way Blizz decided to make monetization system is just unforgivable. They truly f**ked that up. Not only they randomly locked half of the characters in roster for every single person who didn't buy Watchpoint pack, they also completely destroyed progression/rewards system. That involves cosmetics and heroes themselves. New heroes, you can acquire by completing Battle Pass, but the old ones, you have to unlock them by paying with virtual currency. Which ofcourse you can get only by using your credit card. What is it? Is Blizz saying that you can get those coins by playing? Oh, you mean those 60 coins you can get only once in a week by completing weekly challenges? Well go fu** yourselves there in Blizzard with this bullsh**. That'd be Ok if legendary skins for heroes, wouldn't cost 2 000 COINS and BP 1000 COINS!!! ARE YOU OUTTA YOUR MIND?! And Blizz have enough guts for coming on game forums, saying that they are not satsified with this progression/rewards system as well, so that they could say there will be some changes in season 2. Guess what! They didn't change literally anything! F*** YOU!

    The saddest thing about all of this is the fact, that the game itself is still fun, it's still enjoyable, the gameplay is still great. But all the things around all of this is just pure awful bulls**it that never needed to happen. I'm sick and tired of watching these favourite game franchises of mine getting butchered and destroyed by some ass**les in nice outfits who only wishes to suck money out of faithful gamers. I'm sick that I have to leave another great game I used to love for it's wonderful gameplay and characters within really good story and this wonderful universe.

    This feels NOTHING like a sequel at all. Most of the character's kits aren't changed, save for a few, and a PvE mode that is still unfinished, and locking new characters behind a battlepass? Nice attempt at trying to grab our money blizzard. It feels like a cash grab, locking some potentially good characters behind a paywall, and making us pay for a battlepass so that we can access them.This feels NOTHING like a sequel at all.

    Edit: Initialy I gave 0 for hero lock but after season 1 it turned out that unlocking recent heroes is kinda easy. They also partially turned off SMS protection for the old users. It is not that bad now.

Other then this the game is great and all thou the game for me like its BUILD for TWO tanks instead of one its okay as well I guess but OW will never be the same as it was before and until the devs get it and revert it all back with all the good (as little as there are) changes to the game I will not be playing.

    Overwatch 2 para muitos ´é um fiasco e extremamente abusivo e com muitas micro transações. Sabe, acredito que o jogo continua divertido, mesmo sem ganhar a quantidade de skins que vc ganharia de forma "gratuita", vc ainda teria que comprar o jogo. Remover as antigas lootboxes pra mim é algo bom, não joguei o ow1, portanto não sei o quão recompensador era ganhar skins de forma gratuita.Overwatch 2 para muitos ´é um fiasco e extremamente abusivo e com muitas micro transações. Sabe, acredito que o jogo continua divertido, mesmo sem ganhar a quantidade de skins que vc ganharia de forma "gratuita", vc ainda teria que comprar o jogo. Remover as antigas lootboxes pra mim é algo bom, não joguei o ow1, portanto não sei o quão recompensador era ganhar skins de forma gratuita. Agora, como o jogo é grátis para todos o jogo necessita de micro transações para funcionar. Meu único contra é o preço alto das skins, sendo antigas ou não, estão caras demais - ainda assim eu comprei a skin da Kiriko Bruxa XD.

    Meu maior desgosto com o jogo é o launcher péssimo e mediocre da Blizzard, o Battle.net. Muito ruim, lagado, lento e buga muitas vezes não permitindo que eu jogue. Além de eu ter q entrar no launcher sempre que clicar no ow2 na area de trabalho. O site da blizzard é lagado, não abre rapido e demora pra baixar o launcher (fui baixar o launcher recentemente, estava baixando a 30kb/s e minha internet no máximo chega a 8mb/s, uma vergonha pra uma empresa bilionária).

    Fora esses pontos negativos, pra mim o jogo é divertido. Muito desafiador no sentido de jogar bem com determinados personagens, exigindo mais tempo para pegar maestria em um herói. A experiencia é bem vasta, consigo jogar horas sem enjoar.

    07/12/22: Após mais de 100h de jogo volto aqui para deixar minha decepção e minha tristeza em relação ao jogo. Falta suporte em atualizações constantes e suporte em tickets e chat. Jogo não tem suporte, vc tenta falar com eles para pedir ajuda e não respondem. Dificil gastar dinheiro comprando skin e não ter nenhum suporte. VALORANT tem mais suporte do que OW2.

They put a pricetag on everything, and i mean everything. I hate to say it but i think that it would be more financially responsable to invest in nft's. They added souveneirs, which is basically just a slapped together 3d model copy and pasted onto an emote. They literally serve no purpose and not a single player i have seen has even used one in game. They also added weapon charms, which are also, just 3d models copy and pasted onto the same cosmetic. They removed all sense of progression, and now, the only thing that you can show off as a medal is payed nametags, namecards. Prices for skins are so insanely high. Why would someone pay 20$ for a skin i got for free years ago, i dont know. Seasons are very disapointing considering they lock all the heroes under a paywall. Rammattra for example, is not available to anyone, BUT, if you buy the "premium" battle pass, you can unlock him instantly. There is no reason to make the player grind 70 hours for a "new" hero other than to sell the battle pass. This game is no longer fair since in the future, players with new heroes may have an advantage over others if the hero is broken or cannot be countered. When i first tried the game "paladins", i saw that all the heroes were locked under a paywall, this instantly made me like overwatch 1 more since i could play all the heroes whenever i wanted. Now in overwatch 2, i see many other games that exist to be multitudes better. This is very sad that blizzard, microsoft, are so greedy they were willing to ruin what I thought was one of the most well designed videogames.

    This has taught me one thing though, you can slap "2" onto a name for an update, and put a price on everything, absolutely everything.    … Expand

There are snipers and one-shot kills EVERYWHERE. This is an active choice Blizzard has made to cater to a wider audience which will slowly turn this to a generic shooter.

    Now with the free-to-play model, a ton more players are in the game, and the short queue times are possible the only positive thing about it. It brings a crap load of Fortnite-like players who has no clue of what teamplay means. Not a single person is paying attention to what is happening around them. Everyone is focused on the nearest enemy and you can ping out enemies, and no one cares. If your playing solo random queue, it's basically a lottery to see if you are lucky enough to get into a team that actually knows what they are doing.

    On top of making the game less fun to play for support, they've added a super expensive shop and a battle pass that means absolutely nothing for the player. It's just another way for them to milk money off their player base. In OW1 I occasionally bought a skin. In OW2, that will never happen.

    This game has turned so bad for support players that I'm seriously considering stop playing. This is from a person who have enjoyed OW1 since day one. In it's current form, I absolutely HATE OW2.

    Added 2022.11.29
    ------------------------
    The first season ends in one week and the game is still total **** They haven't tried improving anything to make it more fun to play for support. Matchmaking is totally broken. You can end up in the losing team 6-8 times in a row, even though I am top healer in 70% of the matches.

    Tanks are still out damaging DPS heroes and there are a ton of people playing tank who doesn't have a clue on how to play the role. Going 5v5 is the worst decision Blizzard has made. One bad tank, one tank that throws, and the game is over. They have literally made the most important role the one that people fail the most playing. They made the changes to appeal to damage dealers, and guess who plays tank...? Damage dealers that have zero clue on how to play.

    OW2 is still a total disaster and messed up garbage of a game. Stay away if you don't like frustration, long queues and people who don't give a crap about their teammates. I 100% HATE this game and people who have made it.    … Expand

    On its own the game might not be absolutely terrible but it's essentially worse than Overwatch 1 in every respect. In an unprecedentedly stupid move, Blizzard chose to completely replace the original game with Overwatch 2 and take away the original game from everyone who bought it since 2016.

    - heroes (like Mei or Bastion) get disabled for nearly half a month due to bugs, instead of getting fixed quickly. WTF?!
    - your rank only updates every 7 matches -> very annoying, in OW 1 it would update immediately
    - your initial competitive rank is confusing: many originally gold players got placed in Bronze (why?)
    - legendary skins are a damn joke! WAY TOO expensive (20€ / bundle) and look boring Just compare legendary skins from League of Legends to Overwatch 2's legendary skins -> OW's skins are a joke
    - playing support is awful, except you're some kind of masochist -> you get flanked and targeted by enemy heroes the most but get flamed most by your team for "not healing enough"
    - too toxic community -> so much sexism, racism and hate speech in voice chat
    - often very unbalanced matches: it can easily happen that you get a 5 match losing streak in competitive -> very frustrating and unfair
    - push game mode is confusing and feels like a "jogging simulator" -> your team mates will sometimes not notice that the bot is or can be pushed and will keep fighting somewhere else on the map; when you actually capture the bot, you have to escort around the map (jogging simulator) until you reach an enemy again
    - Can't exactly tell why, but Overwatch 1 was more fun to play than Overwatch 2 is now. Maybe removing one tank, only to force slightly better queue times, was a mistake

    Unnecessarily removed features (These features shouldn't have been removed!!):
    - Why on earth did Blizzard remove Levels?? Levelling up was an awesome motivation to actually play the game! Sure, there's a battle pass now but they could have kept both the levels and a battle pass (like e.g. in Rocket League: you have both a Battle pass level and your player level there)
    - Why did Blizzard remove the end cards where you could vote for players from your or the enemy team? It was such a cool feature!
    - Why did they remove the on fire flame and made being on fire so rare? -> being on fire was always an amazing and hyped feeling in Overwatch 1!
    - Why did Blizzard remove endorsement categories? Just why? They were actually pretty good!

    This list could probably go on forever but I'm already almost at 2500 characters so I'll leave it at that for now!    … Expand

    2CP is gone so all my favourite maps like Anubis, Volskaya, Hanamura are gone. New mode called Push is not something I’m looking to when waiting in queue. And queues… it’s a brand major release with marketing from them but it already takes 10m to find a game. What’s more, I paid for OW1 with a promise that everything else in the game will be free but now OW1 has been deleted from my account and what I have instead is F2P OW2 with battle pass that’s full of useless things, has very few interesting skins, all of them hidden behind absurdly high levels of BP that I won’t be able to do without ruining my real life, so I guess that’s a way of forcing me to pay… which feels sleazy. And now even heroes are behind BP? In a game that’s all about changing heroes mid-game? Where every new hero is OP at a release? Is that basically P2W direction?

    I can literally play Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory from 2003 with my friends but keeping OW1 on my acount and maybe releasing an ability for people to host their own servers? You know, letting people play a game they literally BOUGHT in the first place? We can’t have that at modern Blizzard!

    There’s one less tank so goodbye to my favourite role of being an off-tank. All tanks got buffed of course, and playing as a support feels like being an NPC for DPS to kill without a 2nd tank for peel. Don’t worry though, you can always 100% of the times pick Moira due to her escape abilities until you’re bored to death OR get a new hero Kiriko cause she’s quite mobile as well. Ah yes, she’s behind a paywall for non-OG players so I guess maybe you can’t. Have fun being an NPC. Soon, new tank will release that’s said to not be free for OG players which will make that split of fun even more skewed towards people who pay up, or grind several hours every single day to… let me check notes… ah, be able to pick a hero in a game about picking heroes.

    Games are mostly about you being bored to death while you snowball the other team, or about being perpetually frustrated before finally giving up while it’s the other team who snowballs you. Matchmaker is terrible. I had more equal matches in HotS and that game is on life-support for God’s sake. Paladins, Fortnite, TF2 - in no other game win/loss felt like such a coin flip from a matchmaker.

    The only thing great about this game is art and how polished it is. I just wished all those artists worked on Paladins, not Overwatch; or other genre altogether. It’s such a waste to put such beautiful design in such bad gameplay.

The predatory monetization and **** comp system though kind of make this game even worse. At least in overwatch one I was able to collect a decent number of good skins simply through free loot boxes I earned playing the game, now you can only earn what is on the season pass or pay outrages amounts of money for the skins that you want.

    Probably one of the most unfun games ive ever played. Overwatch 2 is one of the biggest cash grabs ive seen in the past few years, everthing they did with this made the game worse, 5v5 was a stupid **** idea the new changes they did to Bastion and Mei made them much less fun to use and Zarya, Sombra, Sojourn and Orisa are just overpowered and broken.

    **** **** new monetization system as for me this is the first game about which you can say 100%:
    1. "It's not possible to play without a donation"
    2. "Donat dump"
    **** let BLIZZARD them return the system that every day you can get one case for the game.

    This game is a remake from the previou game but with an other monetation system and very similar gameplay. The problem is that there is a lot of bugs, problems and marketing that it doesn't work and it doesn't go back to fix it.

    It's really a bad game.
    No sense of progression, alot more cheaters hence forth move to F2P model, unstable servers, still high Latency even on 500/500 mbit home internet. Skins are way overpriced and the grind you need to do is unreal. Missing maps. Scoreboard actually make the game even more toxic than ever before

    This game appears to be very friendly untill tha game decides to flip you over after you being new player. It throws you into lobby against harder players cause you cannot apparently have too much wins.
    This is the worst matchmaking i have ever seen in any kind of game please fix your crap Blizzard even though you wont fix it.

    It disconnects almost every third game, paid battle pass, and insufficient coins can be earned per week. I bought this game back in 2017 and... Were buyers provided with something? Nope, nothing. Nothing at all. At least provide us the same amount of coins we paid previously for the game or allow us to have lootboxes.

    Donate, donate, donate. If we'll distance from donate, there is no reward system. In overwatch 1 it was lootboxes, levels, "on fire", medals in match, voting for best player after match. This all have gone with overwatch 2 realese. But 5vs5 is better than old 6vs6 tho. It's easier now to kill someone. So, rating 1 is enough. Cause I don't want to play this game. No rewards at all!!!

    The biggest patch ever in OW1, but it revives the joy from OW1 with it

    Pros
    + Reduce teamwork and reward more solo playmaking
    + Reduce frustration from de-rank due to teammates
    + New mode solves the previous issue perfectly
    + Fun per minutes spent is superb
    + Feels more like a shooters than MOBA

    Cons
    - Expensive skin
    - High skill ceiling for casuals
    - Balancing issues

    They took a very good game and gutted it of its strategy and depth then added a predatory monetization system. It's now a sad reminder of the game that it was and you cannot go back to the better version because they killed it for this patch with a 2 on it.

They destroyed one of the best multiplayer shooting game to get a little more money that people still don't want to give them.

    Overwatch 2 is a great game! I really liked it at first, and still like it at this day.

    I had an argument with friend. He said that microtransactions and battle pass ruined the game. But it didnt. The only 1 thing about this game is 2 characters being in premium BP, and skins, their cost and loot boxes. (He had Overwatch 1 and has it) I mean, ok you dont want to play without skins but,    Overwatch 2 is a great game! I really liked it at first, and still like it at this day.

    Why not play this game because of skins and 15 games to unlock chars? Its the same game! Maybe theres no 6v6. but it atleast fully exterminated 3 T, 3 S meta issue. It gave (symmetra) players less shield gain. But totally this game is banger! And if you hate this game because only of skin system change. Shut up, you're annoying.    … Expand

The game is really good game play wise and i know its just a copy and paste from overwatch 1 to 2 and i know the skins are 30 dollars....

    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.
