    after 1600 hours in ow1, on day 3 it still has massive problems... I finally got into a competitive with a good team, we won.... well ... just the second we pushed the payload further than the enemy team ...unexpected server error..... IN QUEUE: 2000 PLAYERS

    It's a truly wonderful continuation of my favourite competitive game. I have about 3k hours in ow1 and I like all the changes they've made. Battle pass is better than lootboxes imo and it's not expensive or grindy at all.
    All the ppl dissatisfied with the launch are just spoiled and bad mannered.

    Good improvement on the pvp of overwatch. Sadly it has been plagued with some launch problems like being ddosed and more but the experience in game is amazing. Can't wait for pve to launch in 2023

    It's actually very good. The servers are fixed. Already. The items and cosmetics not being there problem already fixed. And I'm level 20 on the battle pass after just 5 days. People that are hating on this game fall into two campsthe people that either don't freaking play the game, which is most of you. And then the people that played the first one till they got sick of it and quit.

    And ALL of you are getting your information from YouTubers because you all sound like YongYea with bad grammar. Heck he was still reporting problems that have been fixed as still a problem. Whatever. Doesn't matter. Even though I hate Blizzard. They nailed this. And the over 500k that were combining their accounts just today also like it. And the people that were logged off that play it like it. If you don't like it and play it you're in the minority. If you don't play it and don't like it, you look silly.

    much better than the first, the 5 vs 5 makes the game more punishing and gives importance to the tank role, the graphics engine gives a magnificent rendering and the new characters are very fun to play, I highly recommend to people who like challenges.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's a lot more fun than OW1.
    It's time to make some profits, but the thoughts of those who have bought it as a package game are ridiculous.
    How long are we going to do it for free? Developers also need to earn money to operate.

    Haters gonna hate. Overwatch 2 não é o mesmo jogo, é uma evolução perfeita do primeiro jogo, é agora o que sempre devia ter sido, muito divertido de jogar, muita coisa nova, com alguns problemas de lançamento, sim, mas é só ter paciência, não conheço um jogo que não tenha enfrentando o mesmo em seus lançamentos, como fall guys e new world...

    Отличная игра, не понимаю нытья по поводу серверов, они плохо работали первые пару дней, сейчас - 10 октября всё работает отлично. Новые герои каждые 9 недель это круто, добавили новые режимы, обновили графику. 1 овервотч мне надоел, а эта игра довольно неплохой апдейт.Отличная игра, не понимаю нытья по поводу серверов, они плохо работали первые пару дней, сейчас - 10 октября всё работает отлично.

    Overwatch va por buen camino, solo a esperar de que el nuevo contenido sea más regular. Y un mejor balance, fuera de eso es un juego buenísimo. Emocionante y una mejora sustancial a lo que fue el 1

    -The biggest change for me was a removal of 1 tank. Incredible how many things this have changed.
    While original game was a SHIELD DESTROYING FEST (especially when it's reinhardt x orisa or sigma), now it's more fast, more attacking for both DPS and tanks. However I feel that gameplay for healers didn't change much. Tanks are now so fun to deal damage to. They are practically unkillable,

However I feel that gameplay for healers didn't change much. Tanks are now so fun to deal damage to. They are practically unkillable, because healers in 5v5 have more resources to sustain them. AND THIS IS FUN. Not a "game for everyone" where 12 people play and one person can't make much difference and noone gets offended. No more a game where elo hell is more real than anywhere else.

    -At first I thought that UI is mobile-like, didn't like the idea, but in fact it just feels fresh and works well with both improved UI animations (i.e. Ult glow) and new hero select animations.
    -Rome map feels fresh too, and you see that they worked on post-processing, colors look picturesque.
    -Also new Push game mode is kinda fun to play.
    -New scoreboard. FINALLY. Now it's no more a game for snowflakes and easily offended people. Not a "game that should make you feel comfortable" and just fill in the player spot in a match. Now you can actually see how your team performs, HOW YOU PERFORM and plan accordingly

    Now to things I don't like:
    -Junker Queen has a very tiny hitbox, and a looot of HP for that hitbox (imagine Tracer with 400 hp), which makes her a very difficult target and, well, unbalanced.
    -New Battle Pass system... Let's be honest, we are okay with this system in Apex Legends, but here... It just doesn't fit. You buy a Battle Pass for what reason? To have skins all other players have? Skin distribution system back in the days told a story - you opened hard earned pack and got a legendary skin for your favourite character. Or you spent a handful of currency to buy just this one skin you like. This system I liked is no more.
    -Yes, game servers can't take this much load first few days. We see it in all Blizzard games.
    -Yes, compared to original game, you wait 2 minutes to find a game on dps instead of 10+mins. This shows how dead and abandoned and forgotten the original game was. And this is Blizzard's fault.

    10 out of 10 because of offended people here hitting 0. In fact 8 out of 10 bc it's super fun to play

    It's acutally a good update over the OW1, but comparing it to the other FPS titles, it still sucks, it would be better if this game was just a cheap Valorant clone rather than this mess. Valorant is also a bad game by the way.

    Enjoying the game a lot more than ow1, i have total of 1300 hours on the game and i can say its better than recent ow1 seasons. reminds me of ow 2016. Battlepass is not that good but has no impact on the actual game and the fun part of it.

    the majority of the reviews are just over entitled and factually incorrect.

    the game is free.... cant afford skins don't buy them give feedback they'll become cheaper if enough people agree. anyone who actively played OW1 and isnt living on rose tinted glasses knows OW2 is very different to play I cant remember any major game update like a new CoD a new Halo a new GOW shock they are

    anyone who actively played OW1 and isnt living on rose tinted glasses knows OW2 is very different to play I cant remember any major game update like a new CoD a new Halo a new GOW shock they are still Halo Gears and Cod, if they wanted a 100% different game play a different game....

    server issues on the first few days are annoying of course they are but running servers for a launch of one of the most popular titles in the world which without issue has been proven by every games company or every server based product in the world.

    SMS protect happens to be in nearly every other game but for ranked mode, that may be the path blizz shouldve taken, but its worth noting no one wants your number take your tinfoil hat off or you hiding something?

    worth noting I've seen people complain that skins are expensive in a world where valorant exists and charges 4x the most expensive single skin bundle for a skin bundle.

    context is everything and youll not find it in the majority of these reviews.

    TLDR the game is the most fun my friends and I have had playing overwatch in years

    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.
