    i made this account just to leave a bad review for this game. OW2 is a complete downgrade compared to OW1. 3,5 years development for what? 3 chars that feel new BECAUSE THERE ARE NEW and a battlepass that is worse then anything else. blizzard is dying, im so sad

    departures, queues. terrible main menu design. The game was made for 6 years, but the game is extremely raw. The queues are constantly growing. It can't be called a sequel.

    You wait for one or more hour in queue to see the f*ing error such as "you friend use another version of the Overwatch". Even if game was launched yesterday and you all have the same version...

    There is no difference between OW1 & OW2. They can just create a "BIG PATCH/UPDATE" instead of changing the name to OW2. I don't understand why a lot of media keep giving this game a high score when they know that all the changes don't require a new title/sequel.

    the game became unplayable, not only because of the servers, but also for the gameplay that became only a "push push push". Tanks that are not tanks anymore, they do only damage, and the prove of this is that the only tank with a shield is reinhardt (infact no one uses him anymore).
    I gave 1 point only because junker queen is fun to play.

    It could be the best game in the world but making it a stipulation to have a contractually post post paid phone plan to play is classist. Blizzards motive is to sell user data, not to enrich the player experience. It has no bearing on the gameplay, and only serves to gatekeep and exclude players. It is the opposite of the spirit of gaming and play the Blizzard should strive for.

Besides the long queue time which should be fixed soon hopefully, the gameplay itself is a complete step back from the original Overwatches gameplay. With many people getting disconnected from competitive games and people bouncing back and forth across the map due to the servers being so damn bad the game itself is complete garbage. The only thing that saves this game from zero is that the launch revives r34 and porn for overwatch characters. Other than that I see no point in consuming overwatch content until the game is fixed and the servers are stable.… Expand

However, I refuse to give this game any score above 1 until the absolute abhorrent monetization practice is changed. $20 for 1 legendary skin is genuinely disgusting, along with the fact the 'premium' battle pass doesn't give you any currency and how emotes, victory poses, highlight intros, and everything customizable, costs at least 300 of the premium currency (of which you can only receive 60 of for free per week). This includes voicelines, which is unbelievable. It truly feels like Blizzard couldn't care less about fans and views them quite literally as wallets and nothing else, and feels like they are using free to play as an excuse to throw in these horrendous microtransactions.

    I wish I could play this game but doing so would show them I will continue to play even with this terrible business model, which I refuse to do so.    … Expand

    Gameplay is great, just like Overwatch 1 but Overwatch 2 isn't a sequel. It feels more like a patch to the original.
    Blizzard took the soul and what made the game feel special away by removing beloved mechanics like being "on fire" or the medal system.

У меня нет желания с ними играть в проигрышные катки, так ещё и репутация за проигрыш снимается. У меня с момента выхода 10 раз снизилась репутация на 3 и снова повысилась на 4.

    3) Косметика - Прочитал, чтобы купить все кастомизации на Кирико надо потратить 5 лет... Это на одного персонажа.... А их 35 шт.... 175 лет....

    4) Валюта - их теперь 3 шт. Монеты, кредиты и соревновательные. Первые же, только покупать, но опять же, в россии получишь только фигу. Кредиты, ни как, если за ранее не накопил в старой версии, остаются только соревновательные, за которые купишь только золотой скин на оружие.... могли бы хотя бы другие цвета добавить, либо анимированные.

    Вторая часть как ни как, должно быть колоссальное обновление, но они гордо задрали нос и хвастаются эпохальными скинами, и на все остальное клали болт. И за это я отдал деньги пару лет назад, чтобы получить бесплатную версию с наихудшими изменениями. 1 балл за Кирико, понравилась очень

    A solid game though it lost most of its specific playstyle to go towards a more generic shooter with an Overwatch skin.

    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.
