    all I can see negative reviews say

    Queue problem? Every time new a game released will always lack or problem something. We know it. Get over it. lol Complain about battle pass? yes all people need money to make a games. Just like Destiny 2 and Fortnite did. they are huge succeeds but why you don't complain to other games but OW2 why? lol No PVE? yes Blizzard already say that next

    No PVE? yes Blizzard already say that next year. let PVP beginning for fun first. because we want to learn lots of new heroes and change skills something

    hate 5v5? I believe it's sorted out of queue quickly because 2/2/2 dps, tank and support lots of people wanted to play DPS all the time. but all tanks has been buffed and it's rock and awesome!

    Don't like Phone Number? it's good to stop hack or smurf account or swear. they should be afraid of phone number but that's bad. The **** people will enjoy it without number lol.

    Complain about already brought the old OW1 but remember we got many skins for free from loot boxes total $12 000 since it released. Be thankful for that

    I still play OW2 so much and I loved it! Please just ignored all negative people thank you

    Монетизация аля diablo immortal, интерфейс стал выглядеть дёшево, баланс убит, но это пофиксят. За покупку первого овера дали костюм клоуна, намекая на тех кто надеялся на нормальную монетизацию

    Первая часть была не плохой, но близард решили прекратить поддержу игры на 3-4 года.
    Вторую часть испортили донатом. Близы отобрали первую часть у тех кто её покупал. При этом за 3 - 4 года ожидания вышло только 3 героя, а не 9. При входе очередь и долгий поиск матча.

    В первой части я мог играть и бесплатно получать скины и прочие прелести.
    Вторая часть та же самая игра но теперь я не могу получать ничего бесплатно.
    Зачем вообще нужна вторая часть когда это патч для первой который убрал бесплатное и добавил донат?

    Most of us paid actual money for ow1 and what do we get now that the "new" overwatch 2 is free to play? We get a battlepass that we need to pay even more money to unlock, hour long waiting times to enter the game, and like 95% of all skins being locked behind paywalls.

    Ruined overwatch. Every class is dps now. Win/Lose is way too heavily impacted by a single tank slot. Lazy and poorly researched changes. Feels unbalanced. Skins and battle pass are a horrible cash grab. Battle pass lacks any mechanics to reward play time. Skins are overpriced garbage. Bad launch. Bad game. Bad business model. RIP.

    I'm 29 years old, and played the crap out of Overwatch for years following original release. What an INCREDIBLE game. But a game is only as the experience you receive upon TRYING TO EVEN PLAY IT. As a seasoned Blizzard player since Starcraft, Warcraft, WoW, Heroes of the Storm... I NEVER GOT ANY INVITE TO BETA A GAME THAT'S REALLY OWATCH 1.5, AND EVEN THEN, COULDN'T BE RELEASED ON TIME. It's HALF of a new game, and they pushed it back, what? Three times? Four? Are we even still keeping count?

    That all brings me to tonight. I finally installed this game, went straight to a player queue, then to a friends list that doesn't work, and finally, NO GAMEPLAY BC IT'S SO BUGGED ONLY 2 DAYS AFTER RELEASE, THAT THEY HAVE TO SHUT DOWN ALL SERVERS FOR 3 HOURS.

    Last parting gift, as wisdom for Blizzard. IF you are going to push back a game (no problem, it happens), THEN you are expected to release a POLISHED GAME.

    Moving to 5v5 is a terrible decision.
    Game is more generic FPS.
    It doesn't feel unique anymore with so many MOBA elements removed.

    A lot of depth and strategy has been lost from the game.

    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.

    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.
