    An update disguised as a sequel. No PvE. And the monetization is one of the worst. No currency on the battlepass. The only way to get coins is grinding weekly challenges for months. Legendary skins are disgustingly overpriced.

    Absolutely no reason to be a sequel besides the fact they wanted to monetize the game even more now with the pass

    I played overwatch 1 and really enjoyed it. This mess is not enjoyable and feels like a bad knock off of overwatch. Games are blow outs in one direction or the other and at times it feel like the games included bots instead of regular players. Simply not an enjoyable game to dedicate your time too.

    its just a bad version of overwatch 1. They removed everything that was good about the game just to make the game free and make the rest behind a paywall.

    Why was this game even made? Microsoft and Activision/Blizzard deserve each other they are both detrimental to the gaming industry. Can you take this off my Playstation please?

    Overwatch 2 will go down in history as one of the most pathetic releases and sequels of modern games. Yep, it's up there with Cyberpunk.

    Thanks for the 20 euro skins that used to be free. Battle-pass without premium currency is something completely new. Congratulations you made the worst monetization.

    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

    Bring back the first part, it's terrible. Instead of loot boxes (which you got for FREE per level or in events), you added a battlepass that is 99% garbage.

    not way too far from what I expected. I mean how much further can u develop new ideas into a title that's already great. graphics were upgraded... getting rid of a tank role ... feels different but not a bad idea maybe its easier to find a team of 5 than a team of 6 after all.

    Overwatch was remove from me for this game. its a predatory greedy F2P, the pricing of skins and the battlepass. i get why they had to remove overwatch, no of the playerbase would go to this **** that is OW2. There are few thigns that im not dissapointed in. blizzard please just let me have overwatch back, i can't belive you spend 3 years on ow2 and this is what we get.

    Lack of 2nd tank and cc in dps let's a lot of characters run rampant that would previously be held in check by crowd control (tracer Sombra) Outside of game play, monetization feels miserable compared to the previous option, you either put out your wallet (not rly an option to pay my wage of 5h for a skin ESP when they would be "free" in old overwatch) Simple solution would be to put loot boxes back in overwatch (a sentence that i never thought I'd use)
    Or monetize the game on the level of fortnite battle pass where you have more than enough money to buy a new battle pass from the previous one (not every other one like we have now) also battle pass progesion is screwed so against the player it's hilarious at best we don't play video games to have a second job, we do it to have fun and I hope execs realize that soon or they will keep losing players to fortnite (I'd be embarrassed in their place)

    Overall the gameplay experience feels worse Monetization feels like it's made to not even make us want to pay up, just straight up quit New vc is as empty as always

    Another pile of **** from decaying Blizzard. Last thing from them I enjoyed was WotLK (before they sold their asses to Activision). Never paid a penny and never played their 'projects' since then.
    Don't waste your time and money, guys, let these greedy promoting lgbt bastards go bankrupt. In memory of the good old games Blizzard assosiateted with long time ago...

    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.
