    First of all, Blizzard doesn't exist. Secondly, you released the same game just to implement new methods of monetization. Thirdly, the game looks as flawed as possible in 2022 in every sense.

    This game is so bad, it makes me sad. Imbalanced, broken MMR, now Pay to Win by buffing a hero you have to buy get him now instead of playing 45 levels of endless grinding. Teammates often act like bots. The free to play system ruined the entire OW1 community.

    The game was absolutely destroyed by the developers, who now cancelled PvE. Ot seems to me that blizzard do nothing to make this game better. Only worse

    Same game as OverWatch 1. The only system to be updated is the monetization system which is absolutely horrible.

    No more medals, no more 'on fire', even less recommendation options.

    The game has changed from 6 to 5 players, with only 1 tank instead of 2 in a party wich is ok as a game mode but why force it upon the entire game? Some support heroes are so weak now because that extra shield is gone...

    And don't even get me started on the 'you can earn ingame currency with weekly challenges'. Well yeah you can earn €0.60 each week and a legendary skin costs €20, so you'll be grinding for almost half a year for 1 skin. I played ow1 for almost 5 years, and the last 2 years I actually got my wife so far as to play it with me, but since ow2 we just don't like it anymore and she moved on from the game.

    So sad to see one of ly all time favorite games turn into an absolute cash grab. I hope it fails tremendously! But hey at least 'it's free to play'. Blizzard I hope you choke on your money!    … Expand

    It's pay to win trash. Just sell it up front like the original instead of locking characters behind a paywall. Removing the original game shows just how scummy they are. The free way of unlocking characters is in no way reasonable. It's because of games like this that I no longer bother with anything "F2P". The uninstall is the only good thing about it.

    After playing OW1 since Beta this game is one of the worst downgrades in the history of gaming.

Better keep the first up than lunching this **** The PVE was the only reason for the second, and they canceled it by lack of funds but put 1.5M in a LGBTQIA+ event no one carred. I'm not against LGBT events but when it cost the game to die that's a problem. Hope one day all those people will get fired and try new things for restarting the licence.

    The promised Overwatch 2 was specifically the PvE content. Now that story is dead in favor of a monetized system of seasonal battle passes. They figured well they can't make consistent money on a box priced game. They prefer to stick to a battle pass system and scrap PvE all together. We need JEFF BACK!!! SAVE US!!!

    Game economics suck, an outfit cost 1/3 the price of the original overwatch. Just FIY, I got 24 legendary outfit in the original game just for 60 euro. I would have to pay 500 euro in that f2p version just to have the same skins, not even counting the epic and rare. It's a rip off.

    The gameplay is good, but other than maps and a couple of characters, nothing has changed in the game, meticulous donation, idiotic battlepass with a price tag under the ceiling and equally idiotic quests. "You can get everything just by playing the game," right ? Thanks, I'm not going to spend billions of time in the game to get a skin I like by paying for this game earlier. Especially your ways of getting things involve living in it.

    I was pretty content with the OW1 system. I bought it during the initial release. You got lootboxes but you could buy whichever skin you wanted if you were diligent and saved enough coins. You weren’t forced to pay a cent, there was no illusion of items being obtainable for free. You could actually get them if you were dedicated to the game.

    Now those SAME items from the old version and    I was pretty content with the OW1 system. I bought it during the initial release.

    Now those SAME items from the old version and being resold at higher prices for no reason. Just because they updated the game and slapped 2 on the cover. If I wanted to buy a skin in the old version I could get it with coins pretty reasonably just by playing the game every day.

    Do you know how long it would take for me to get this skin now? 32 weeks. 60 coins a week. 8 months. FOR 1 SKIN. So now I suddently can’t get the same skins from the old version.

    I’m actually being PUNISHED for playing in the new version instead of being incentivized to play it. Less rewards from playing the same exact game. And I bought this game 8 years ago.

    You can make a new skin that costs 10000 dollars, I don’t fing care. Slapping 2 on the title doesn’t give you the right to increase prices on the old content, gatekeeping it and making it virtually unobtainable without paying.

    Nowdays games are supposed to either give you a reward with enough playing, or lock the reward behind a paywall making it unobtainable at all. It’s usually fine for cosmetic items, but why give the illusion that an item is actually obtainable by playing when it’s not?

    NO ONE is going to play for 8 months to unlock a single legacy skin.

    People who would play the game regardless will keep playing it, people who would buy skins regardless will buy them, but the people who would grind for the free rewards (that any game should have) will just drop the game.

    Blizzard is not the same company that many people grew up with. It's now an evil corporation with no soul.

    So it's no shock that Overwatch 2 is trash. I guess they were too busy raping their employees to do any real work. The CEO hung out on Epstein's island so I guess he was too busy raping people to figure out how to make the company work. The game is utter trash, like the company.

You may think "No problem, I can get a good portion of skins at least for a donat...", but no, for almost a hundred bucks you will get coins for 5-6 legendaries that you could easily earn in a week in Overwatch 1, and this despite the fact that the quality of the skins (both in terms of creativity and aesthetics), recently, is only decreasing. Regarding the gameplay: it is not even necessary to delve into the balance of the characters strengths/abilities or something else, they removed 1 out of 2 tanks - I think this does not require further explanation, from now on, in most cases outcome of the battle depends on Reinhard (or another tank with a shield) and if a player playing on the tank won't do his job decently...ehh... In general, this is how Blizzard treats their players who brought them money and support the online in their stupid games.… Expand

    Overwatch 1 was a game dear to my heart. In 2016, it breathed new life into the 1st person shooter genre. The game started getting stale and updates were painfully slow as time went on. When Overwatch 2 was announced, I was slightly hoping this sequel would breath new life into a game that I really liked. Unfortunately, Overwatch 2 fell short of that and then some. Here is a list of whatOverwatch 1 was a game dear to my heart. In 2016, it breathed new life into the 1st person shooter genre. The game started getting stale and updates were painfully slow as time went on. When Overwatch 2 was announced, I was slightly hoping this sequel would breath new life into a game that I really liked. Unfortunately, Overwatch 2 fell short of that and then some. Here is a list of what went wrong, from most severe to least severe:

    1. Battle Pass - This is the worst attempt at a cash grab. Activision Blizzard knew what they were doing when they implemented a battle pass for Overwatch 2. Stealing an idea from another game and making it so much worse has got to be corporate greed at its finest. I bought Overwatch 1 at $60. I will admit I paid a bit more on loot boxes, but that was the extent of my support. A weapon charm in-game is more expensive than a weapon charm in real life. Explain that to me. Not only that, but you removed Overwatch 1 (a game I PAID for) and forced me to update to Overwatch 2. That Kiriko skin being locked behind the shop is the biggest slap in the face you ever did to me, Blizzard. This was your greatest sin.

    2. Activision/Blizzard's Controversial history - Blizzard, you fostered a toxic work environment for your employees. For that, you will never see another cent from me again, due to the many allegations that you are accused of.

    3. Unfinished release - Blizzard, you promised the community a PvE main story game mode. You promised big changes and great things. You delivered nothing! You have let the community down. This game was not ready for launch. You dumbed down the art style and graphics. You know that ultimate gauge? Its less detailed and less bright. It looks so...dull. To the developers and creators: I have nothing against you, and I know you're working around the clock to make this game better, but your company that you work for is absolutely the worst.

    The postitives? I'll give you one point out of ten for new voice lines, a bit of content, and Kiriko. Unfortunately, not even Kiriko can save what you have released, Blizzard. Thanks for giving us this hallow shell of a video game. This is nothing more than a cash grab. "You are a chump. So pay us $20 for a Halloween skin." I'm sorry, but I can buy a much better game for $20 on Steam right now.    … Expand

I liked the atmosphere and design. But then this "update" came out with the number 2. They promised PvE, reworking of heroes, which I was very happy about. But after the battle pass news, my hope began to fade. I was finished off by the news about the "paid" characters. But still, despite this, I was waiting for PvE.

Then the game stopped developing in any way and the only thing that was added was a couple of new skins that you could buy with saved coins or get with the help of the loot boxes. Suspended development of the game defended that they are diligently working on a new part where everything will change, new maps, heroes, "PVE" mode and many other things will be added. Since the launch of Overwatch version 2.0, everything has started to fall apart. By canceling the older version of overwatch into several thousand queues for four days. When you were among the lucky ones who managed to log in to Overwatch in the first few days, you found out that there is no "No PVE mode" in the game that they promised us and for which reason Overwatch 2 was made and loot boxes with profile leveling disappeared (the only way to get cosmetics in the game for free with no payment). They added absolutely pathetic battlepasses and of course a shop where you can buy a badge you won't even see in the game for $10 (more expensive than if you bought it in real life). For each season, I make trailers for what will be in the new season and what skins will be there, except that you have to buy 70% of the content in the store, 20% is the battlepass and the remaining 10% is for mortals, which is one map and one skin per play for months so you don't cry because you have nothing. "Oh, and not to forget to get the newly added heroes you have to either buy a battlepass to get them immediately or Grinding to level 45". And you don't know yet that earning a level is quite tedious and you can spend more than 50 hours of time to complete the weekly quests (yes, they are outrageously boring and keep repeating themselves). For weekly quests, you will receive 60 coins each week after completion. For comparison, battlepas cost 1000 coin and legendary skins cost 1000 and above.Well, what do we have in the finale and why am I writing this at all? You had 5 years to do what you promised us, and on May 17 I learned that you are canceling the PVE that you promised us for 5 years? What on earth have you been doing all this time? I have the feeling that one and a half people are working on Overwatch. Why are you telling us now? What's the point of half a year from ubdait overwatch to number 2? For peace of mind, you released the road map again, but in that map I only saw what I was supposed to gain from 2019 until now. I will not discuss other aspects of why this game is bad, such as player toxicity or poorly made balance or still unfixed bugs since launch. You have not only broken the bottom, you are already running around and making everything worse and worse. I hope that whoever is responsible for this disaster bears the punishment he deserves. Blizard is no longer a company of hope, quality and fun for me. For me, Blizard has become an incompetent, lying, outrageously stingy company that I haven't experienced in my lifetime.

    Matchmaking now is very bad, both for QPs and competetive. It's a big topic, so if you want to know more - there are a lot of info on that already in the internet.
    In OG Overwatch you could get 4+ random legendary skins, enough gold to purchase a legendary skin you want, and other items, like sprays, emotions, etc in 8 months worth of play. Now you can only get 1 legendary skin and a few minor items across the battle-pass, completing challenges. And it doesn't matter if that skin is 6 years old, prices are the same. When a weapon charm in real life costs less than that exact charm in game, when it is more efficient to farm gold in WoW to buy items in OW than play OW itself — there should be something wrong in this monetisation policy.
    Recent "event" is also very lazy/poorly done, looks like just to showcase new skins, $20 each.
    My only hope is that PvE content will be worth all these shortcomings we got.    … Expand

    5v5 is not fun, overwatch has become a generic fps and not a strategical hero game with tanks, support and dps. It feels really, really dull/boring. Such a shame as I loved ow1 and no longer have access to it. Oh well, didn't expect anything less from blizzard tbh. Awful company and awful game. 0/0

    Worse, the biggest "selling" point of them turning Overwatch into Overwatch 2 was the eventual release of a PvE mode which is what players wanted. It has now been announced that was scrapped.

    They took a several year old game "re-releasing it" in order to milk customers of cash.    … Expand

    I have really no idea how have they done this but the game feels like a downgrade, a rip-off, perhaps even a new low on the market.
    If you haven't tried Overwatch back in the day, and you're thinking of playing Overwatch 2, because hey, "It's free, why not give it a shot", don't bother, it's atrociously bad, and you certainly won't get the fun Overwatch used to deliver. All I can say to these poor souls really is "Sorry mate, it's gone".
    And you know what's the worst of it? Even if you manage to accept that the game has LOADS of microtransactions and other negatively affecting whatnots like toxicity or the glitches, you still won't get the fun you were looking for!
    The characters locked behind paywalls will make sure of that. That's perhaps the worst change Overwatch 2 implemented.

    How did we even get here, Blizzard?! How did we go from such a good game to the absolute worst the gaming scene has ever witnessed?!

The worst thing they did to old players was the new shop system. I have every skin from the original game, and I got every skin for free. The new shop makes that impossible, legendary skins cost 2000 credits, credits can only be earned by completing weekly challenges. You get a maximum of 60 coins per week, to get a leg dart skin I’d have to complete challenges for 33 weeks without spending coins. This game is a greedy cash grab and I hope blizzard changes their store prices, otherwise this game will be dead before the PVE comes out.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Это ПОЗОР полнейший. Начну с того что с моей полки пропал первый Овервотч. Вопрос. Почему у меня забрали игру за которую я заплатил? Даже если вы отключаете сервера, ну так игру оставьте на полке библиотеки, В ЧЕМ ВАША ПРОБЛЕМА? Ладно, расхвалил мне вторую часть товарищ, говорит качай побегаем поиграем. Захожу в тренировочный матч, наблюдаю 30 фпс постоянные фризы, статтеры, короче говоря игра не работает, играть в такое невозможно. Сначала я даже подумал что скачал первую часть и мол компьютер даёт сбой, не может потянуть игру. Так пробегал матч, проверил, вроде вторая часть. Но почему то графические настройки стоят низкие и игра выглядит в несколько раз хуже первой части. Безусловно, я играю с ноутбука, НО, почему год назад играя в Овервотч у меня стояли максимальные настройки графики и стабильные 60 фпс?
    Какой Итог всего этого, товарищи. Наблюдая за всем тем что сейчас происходит в мире, может сложится впечатление, что упадок в игровой индустрии это логическое продолжение всего того ужаса который можно наблюдать во всех сферах нашей жизни. Но это не так. Играм БЫТЬ. Нужно лишь некоторое время перестать хавать всё то, что выдают нам ЭТИ огромные БЕСПОЛЕЗНЫЕ корпорации типа близард, юбисофт, электроник артс и им подобные.

    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.
