    The balance is impressive for a game with so much specialists. Moreover, the essence of the game, based on teamplay is really interesting and challenging. Very good game to try (on top of that it is free), especially for those who don't like battle royale. Waiting for the PVE

    Auch wenn es ein paar kleine macken hat denk ich das diese relativ bald alle vom Tisch sind. Allgemein macht das Spielen dieses Spiels unglaublich viel Spaß und das ist ja das worauf es hier ankommt.

    Tem toda aquela história de "ain é o mesmo jogo". Sim, é o mesmo jogo com skinzinha diferente, mas ele abriu, por exemplo, oportunidade para pessoas sem muito dinheiro, como eu, desfrutar da obra prima que é o Overwatch. Impressionado que (por enquanto) não é pay to win.

    The game have a lot of heroes to choose from, there is almost no bugs and it has a unique gameplay compared to other shooters.

    The only thing i hate it's the bad matchmaking.

    Jogo extremamente viciante, mas deveria ter um balanceamento melhor.
    As partidas são extremamente difíceis ou extremamente fáceis

    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.

    As a 1500 hour plus, once gm player. The gameplay is so much better. It’s much more fast paced and I love this new direction of overwatch. The new support is even my new favorite hero. Fantastic gameplay. Only reason it doesn’t get a 10 is because of the **** monetization. Never been a skin person anyways though.

    5v5 refreshes the game, the Battlepas gives you something to grind for.
    It is now totally free if you want to.
    It is not a complete game though, since the PvE elements are still to be added to the game.
    The mob here just does not like to objectively review the game without playing. But that is the issue with Metacritic.

    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

Some aspects of of the new business model have been either questionable or simply poorly thought out, creating a early experience that left me and many others disappointed. People used the the previous business model might find what blizzard is doing offensive but lets not forget that they were not making any money on the loot box system, making that model unsustainable. Some of the current pricing for some items is clearly overpriced, but the general idea of a battle pass is reasonable and health enough to keep this game going. What is wrong is locking gameplay elements behind this like heroes, this just leads to unnecessary backlash and frustration. Still, as a game, Overwatch 2 improved on its predecessor significantly, fixing some of the first games glaring problems. Lets hope the upcoming PvE truly solidifies this game as the best in its genre.… Expand

    I'm sorry this game does not deserve 1.5 stars, usually I'm with the community on these divisive game choices but not here. The monetization needs to be improved yes, and the game is a bit buggy. But the gameplay is so addicting and the removal of that 6 player is so game changing that it honestly boosts the game way above it faults. Haters gonna hate, this game is awesome.

    Good-
    Great visuals and aesthetic. 5v5 feels faster and more exciting. New maps are well-designed and feature numerous strategic avenues. Push Mode allows for some tense back-and-forth exchanges. The new heroes are fun to play. Most of the new voice lines and interactions are well done. Still feels good to control and offers great connectivity despite an initially shaky launch.

    Bad-
    Some annoying bugs and Challenges. Audio mixing needs some work, especially when it comes to enemy footsteps. Non-Battle Pass progression feels hamstrung with little to no rewards to earn outside of the Premium pass. Amount of free premium currency is pitiable. UI still needs some work.

    Thoughts-
    In its current early access, Overwatch 2 has a lot going for it. There are a lot of good things, especially for those who care about the core gameplay. But there are some negatives, whether it’s aspects of monetization, the UI, or progression. This is a new beginning, for better or worse. A lot hinges on the future PvE content, how Blizzard addresses and balancing concerns, whether future Battle Passes offer a decent slate of rewards, the appeal of limited-time events, new heroes and maps, and much more. At this moment, it is fun, and a fresh new experience for me, fabled Blizzard polish be damned. Whether it remains that way is anyone’s guess.    … Expand

    Gameplay is awesome, characters are awesome, but i hate the "Battle-pass" system, its just terrible. They need to bring lootboxes back.

    I love Overwatch, it's definitely one of my favorite Online Multiplayer games out there.

    Overwatch 2 is essentially a free update, with additional heroes, new abilities, new maps and a couple of Quality of Life improvements. The problem is, the game still has the exact same issues it used to have, and the new progression system is flawed and confusing.

    That being said, the game is still a lot of fun, it's quite literally the same game as before but with some additional content, and it's also free, so I can't complain, it's just not really worthy of the "sequel" title.

    I don't understand why there is a huge negative, most likely just review bombed.

    It's alright, Overwatch 2 is still the same Overwatch. Patiently waiting for the PvE content, PvP is fun while you aren't up against stacking try hard players, as Overwatch is pretty well known for this.

    Я - играю с первой части 200 ч. В последние 2 года игры была нехватка контента, поэтому на 2 часть возлагались большие надежды. Изменений для цифры 2 не хватает. Добавили два новых режима: боевой пропуск и магазин. Геймплей по большей части стал лучше, динамичней. Ставлю 8 для баланса юзер рейтинга и с надеждой на положительные изменения.Я - играю с первой части 200 ч.

    Игра стала реально лучше, разве что появились проблемы со входом в игру, но я уверена, что это исправят. Также в Overwatch 1 было написано, что кредиты, которые там были переведут в overwatch 2, но этого не произошло, что очень печально, у меня было немало кредитов.Игра стала реально лучше, разве что появились проблемы со входом в игру, но я уверена, что это исправят.

    Going to just explain that the original intent (Kaplan) was never to go F2P. And this is ONLY the pvp portion of OW2. So yes, it is essentially "JUST" an update/rework, because the rest is still to come. This is mostly a restructuring of the new monetization and transition to a live service game.

    So what does this free update bring?

    6 entirely new maps. All amazing
    3 entirely new heroes. All amazing. 4th (tank) in December
    1 entirely new mode. Amazing

    All characters have new baseline look, new animations, and new voice lines

    Major reworks to characters like Orisa and Bastion

    So how is it? Imo new meta with less shields, less cc, and less tank is literally what the game needed to be fun again. If you're a lapsed player or even a new player. Check it out, play for yourself. You might find a reason to fall back in love with the game, and at the very least, have fun again!

    You unlock heroes at a pretty steady pace as a new user.
    Battle Pass XP and Challenges are pretty good (compared to Halo and Gundam)
    Ps5/XSX versions of the game with new graphical options and other improvements

    Happy Gaming! Hope this helped    … Expand

    The only issue w/ the game right now are a few minor bugs, aggressive monetization and some balancing issues. The game itself is amazing but I can see why it is being review bombed. I am confident Blizzard will address these issues. If not I’ll change my review

    Fairly decent game, feels much like Overwatch 1. Didn't feel the need for a different game. This works though. Time gate behind unlocking characters is terrible. Shell out money if you want to ever unlock anything decent.

    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.
