    It is a pay-to-win game with false expectations from the executive management.
    It is not fun anymore. It will milk you until you will delete it feeling empty.

    Blizzard and the Devs found a way to disappoint me even with low expectations. The game is pointless and now we don't even get PVE. I'm disappointed and a little sad to be honest and will no longer be playing.

    Overwatch 2 is now officially nothing more than a cashshop update.
    They really deserve an award. Ruining a game with this much potential requires an extraordinary amount of incompetence and greed.
    I will boycott Activision-Blizzard until they get their **** together and I hope you will too.

    I had so much hope for this game. Blizzard specifically gave us so much to look forward to, and then they snatched it away.

    The whole gimmick for this game coming out was the PvE, that was the reason it's Overwatch 2 and not an update. So after 4 years the game is released in a half baked state and now PvE gets cancelled. What is the **** point? What has happened to gaming that this is what devs are able to pull this bs?

    PVE being removed is a rug pull essentially because people spent money on the game (the micro-transactions and different editions, I know the game itself is free) in anticipation of the PVE. Worst balancing I have ever seen in a game ever which is such a difficult title to earn. Every hero re-work literally made them worse.

New support that just came out (Lifeweaver) should be in alpha testing and not a full release hero. 5v5 was an utter disaster, everyone thought it would make the game more balanced and casual friendly but it had the exact opposite affect. The game is extremely poorly balanced because before you would have a second tank to help maintain space and mitigate dps effectiveness. Now if a dps gets on a high ground with a pocket you basically have to split the sea in half to get them off.… Expand

They opted to throw on a fresh coat of paint and try to sell and I do mean sell as free to play games cost you something ether time or money to invest in and in blizzards case you can look at the **** battlepass as an example of that. I doubt they had any intention of releasing any of the PVE content to begin with and the pathetic excuse of "loosing focus" is just insulting to the fans when you follow that up with "so we are left with another difficult choice do we continue to pour all that effort into PVE eerr umm hoping we can land it at some point in the future, Or do we stick with this set of VALUES we have aligned on and focus on the live game and focus on serving all of you" Bro just had a Freudian slip he is literally telling the players we had to pick between trash battlepass and optimization of live service and the actual content that you are looking forward to....HOW IS THAT A DIFFICULT CHOICE. Blizzard deserves every bit of flack they are getting and much more for insulting there fans Overwatch 2 is going to die a slow painful death as they try to monetize the corpse of a 7 year old game… Expand

    Was waiting the PVE Content to review it, cant judge OW2 only based on the PVP part... But they cancelled it so no need to wait for it....
    The game is worse than Overwatch, more bugs, less fun, etc. 6v6 changed to 5v5 is really gimmicky. Players are not rewarded properly and need to pay to have something... No more Account level with cool level up effect. UI/UX from OW 1 was better and    Was waiting the PVE Content to review it, cant judge OW2 only based on the PVP part...

    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.
