Jun 6, 2016this game could be funny, but its completely emptiness, without single player and its a copy of TF2.
EA and Capcom do this and the people started to hate them, but Blizzard do the same and people don´t mind. -

Jul 14, 2016Nice graphics! I like the anime inspired characters.
But:
No single player; no campaign; no story; no progression; no goals; always online.
It's got to be a free-to-play, right? -
May 30, 2016So disappointed by this game considering it was a lot of money to buy! For a game with no single player campaign and okay multiplayer content, it is just simply not worth the money! Expected much more.....

May 27, 2016This is literally the most unbalanced game I have ever played. I'm extremely let down by this game as I was under the impression it wouldn't be hot garbage.

Feb 19, 2018I think to Jeffrey Kaplan it would be quite good to present the book about the balanced maps, because what I see never probably on the balanced game. I will separately tell about rating - it is poverty.
-
Nov 21, 2020I don't really get it's huge hype. It may be enjoyable for multiplayer fans, but it's not innovative and special at all. Just the next multiplayer FPS that doesn't offer much. I'm not a fan of it's visuals as well. I wish it had a singleplayer campaign that could higher the rating.

Jun 9, 2016Remember Evolve?! This game is about the same. Cool concept of a hardcore team focused game (MLG) but if you lack a decent team it's just frustrating. Not bad but just not fun. If they do patch/fix the matchmaking then maybe.
On the plus side all new heroes and maps will (should) be free - in the end contrary to Evolve. -

Oct 21, 2017thanks for encouraging loot boxes or loot crates.
ever since Diablo 3's always online marketplace, I knew this company had such terrible ideas to rip their customers off.
The game is chopped into bits to sell more of this stuff.
While their base games have quality art in them, ugh just rather support smaller or indie companies. -

Aug 17, 2016Blizzard . Stop releasing 60 dollar Games with no content. Excellent mechanics, etc. but no Story, no maps, unless you spend another 60+ dll's . then sell a complete game in 120 dlls if that is the real price that you want to sell it

Jan 9, 2017This game started out great, then it became dull,
It's not for everyone, and it can sometimes cause huge anger and frustration because of the matchmaking system.
I don't regret buying it as it was great when it first came out, but I probably won't play it much anymore, I'd like to check out better games than wasting my time playing more Overwatch. -
Apr 13, 2017overrated piece of **** ... this game is a joke and I don't understand how can this game get Game of the Year .... take Team Fortress 2 and its game mechanics, put some sexy girls with nice booty and you have overwatch ... I hope this game dies soon !!
-
Jul 14, 2017this game is stupid poop wanna know why well yeah it hurt my babys feelings and i wont stand for it so like suscribe and commint ifu want oversplash taken down too >;(
-
Jan 14, 2019Biggest waste of money. i've never regretted buying something more than i do right now. i have yet to have any fun in this game at all. More disappointing than my late son, may he and this game burn in hell for eternity.

Aug 16, 2020My opinion about this game is the same as Fortnite and other games like this Trash!!
-
Nov 23, 2017Based on my time I played at a friends house, I don't understand why this game is popular. The community is pretty toxic and will get mad if you don't play the quote on quote right character.

Aug 1, 2018They want to copy tf2 but can't make it a percentage of the fun as it. Blizzard makes no attempts to actually balance the characters they just want to add skins and try to get it in the "competitive" scene. And the game that's obviously made for mouse and keyboard they don't let you use it on console.
-
Apr 26, 2020Can I ask if blizzard filled with idiots wearing glasses and making a game to find it fun? “Finding a balanced game” when I get partnered with starters and I’m up against people who know the game at heart. People won’t enjoy the game if you don’t listen to what you say is your “community”
-
Jun 20, 2020Dead Game. EU servers full of leavers from MiddleEast, long waiting queues for DPS, overpowered heroes, not balanced heroes. Enraging game. Do yourself a favor and don't buy it or play it just watch Noobhunter on Youtube for the fun clips and watch Overwatch league. But that's it. Let it die in peace.
-
Jun 3, 2016Only game I'm ashamed to have paid full price for. Bad maps, bad gameplay, bad balance, bad almost everything outside of pretty colors. What a waste of money and time. You got me Blizzard...good for you, won't happen again.

Jun 20, 2016Call me biased, but I don't even have to play this title to tell you I won't be purchasing it. No split-screen co-op? No thank you. Gone are the days of family entertainment.
-
Jun 9, 2016A game with very little content, graphics for undemanding machines, or rather not demand anything for not being the best, no competitive game modes or ESL or anything, unbalanced characters.
Wait wait Diablo 3 expansión. -
May 26, 2016
-
May 29, 201660 USD for a Beta. What is the difference between Ovewatch and Battlefront or SFV?. Little content and few players in the arena.
Not campaign, few maps, limited scenarios, few characters, this game must be FTP. But there a lot of Blizzard's fanatics.
Overwatch is pure Scam and the worst are the microtransactions. -

May 29, 2016If you rate this game 10,then i sorry for you.You shoul play team fortress 2 and battleborn instead.This game have no content:
No Weapon process
Only one mode
Boring after a while
60$ for box with skin.I mean wtf!!! -

May 31, 2016The game is fun at first, but as the hours drag on you realize this game has no replay value at all. I enjoyed the first couple days, but never missed the game. After that I tried to play it intermittently but found myself wanting to play PvZ 2 or Battleborn instead. This game may have been worth $20, but no more.
-
Jun 2, 2016Este juego es un robo si lo comparamos con la expansion de the witcher no trae nada de contenido. Y no me vale lo de que meteran contenido yo e pagado por el juego ahora no dentro de tres meses y encima tinen la cara de poner micropagos y si compras te toca con suerte un verguenza blizzard a cambiado para mal.

May 26, 2016This game is sooooooo overpriced! will get boring after 10 hours. No content. If you want a better game play BATTLEBORN. This game is just so weak
-

May 26, 2016Lack of content. Repetitive. You can make a piece of **** look pretty, but in the end its still ****. Not really a fan of this at all and vote low to get all the 10s out

Jun 1, 2016This game is fun for about 1 hours and even less if you played the beta..there progression level up is useless and doesn't affect the game in anyway.
Its basically a game for 12 year old girls,if your older than that its just sad! -
Jun 1, 2016It's funny. The problem is that it takes only a little to finish the game. The rest is ****. It starts a little interesting ( many characters, few skills ) but after playing for hours you realize it's the same . That you have been playing the same **** for five hours.
The same happened with star wars, the difference is that in this case is the god Blizzard , then you can not say anything. -
May 29, 2016Hello 4chin OP, I too can give the game a 0 review score. Because the game is a meme and blizzard keeps taking down the pr0n some post on the internet.
-
May 25, 2016highly overrated, Its pretty...But it doesnt mean its good. Its just meh...Its hard to describe...There isnt much to it in a literal sense...little content. If youre looking for the hero shooter equivalent to cod despite having even less content than cod....this is for you. Battleborn is well rounded...Just was overshadowed by this hype train that wrecked.

May 26, 2016Won't waste your money, the game has a lot connection problems and issues, i trying connect and cannot play the game and no one response on the board and technical support
Don't buy THIS GAME!! -
Jul 18, 2016
-
Dec 12, 2018This game is completely dependent on team composition, and if 1 player does not abide by proper team composition it can result in a guaranteed loss. Pass on this one.
-
May 26, 2016Wait for a 5 dollar bin sale. Should happen really soon. This game is no legs, and has really repetitive gameplay. Feel bad for anyone who purchases this game.
-
May 30, 2016OverHYPED. Why are the heroes fighting each other? The world needs less generic online FPS games that severely lack content. No horde survival mode? No option to even vote for the game type? And only 2 game types at that... attack and defend! LOL what a scam.
-
Jul 25, 2016I do not like that they have made a fps with competitive so it has very llamtivos colors but does not encourage anything that is why i dont like yes
-
May 24, 2016Just another pretty and polished casual game made by Blizzard with very little depth, blizzard only makes casual games now. If this game was made by anyone else it wouldn't have been popular because it's just not a great game. Too casual, not a good long-term game.
-
Jun 23, 2016Very repetitive. Has microtransactions inside a triple A game (big no no) also very grindy when trying to get more loot boxes which almost forces you to buy microtransactions.
-
Feb 2, 2018I get disconnected for a few seconds and get a suspension and my rank gets lowered i can understand this if you can not back on but if you can get back right away it should not effect you what a pile of garbage I will not buy or play any blizzard games for a long while. Sometimes I an just rejoin the match but punishing a play for a disconnection that is not their fault is a bad idea.
-
Jun 5, 2016Overwatch suffers from some major problems. Foremost, the lag is horrendous. Servers operate at a tickrate of 20hz. This is slow. I want to like this game, I really do. but i cant...
-
May 25, 2016Won't waste your money, the game has a lot connection problems and issues, i trying connect and cannot play the game and no one response on the board and technical support

Mar 6, 2018extremly overrated. This IS NOT a GOTY. It just a good game. The scoreds from the critic are a joke.
-
Jul 21, 2019Because they copy the game paladins that's all I have to say this game sucks ass can a woman never playing it again goodbye
-
Jun 2, 2016For the amount of content that it offers, the game does not worth the price. Further, it still has some technical issues as high latency if you are from Asia, Latin America. I wonder how much blizzard coerce Critic Reviews to be favorable, really unbelievable that this game gets a 10/10
-
May 24, 2016Very let down by this, it got mighty boring within a hour, i dont feel there is any lasting appeal to keep me interested in the game. Oh well.........
-
May 24, 2016This game is FLAWLESS. I've never played a more polished launch title than Overwatch. Everything from the options down to the game play itself feels as though it's been in development for the last 15 years. There is easily 100+ hours of content in the base game, not including all the post-launch DLC which will be absolutely free.
Devs, take notes from Blizzard. Overwatch is a smash hit! -
May 26, 2016Won't waste your money, the game has a lot connection problems and issues....plus what this game tries, battleborn does better in every area. Get that game instead. Also see my other reviews for helpful opinions. Hit like if you agree on those ones 2.
-
Apr 3, 2017It is absolutely impossible to perceive such a game design - seriously.
Okay, so game design, but this cardboard animation and physics, just cry, that this game should be - f2p.
People, are you serious? cybersport ? what ? -
May 26, 2016Play battleborn. This game has no content. Blizzard really let everone down. Its a sad game and really lack longevity more than anything. DO NOT PLAY
-
Sep 20, 2016I just don't understand why there are always over level 60 players on the opposite team when i'm level 12 and my teammates are 20. Also skirmish system is so bad.
-
Aug 8, 2016Overhyped, overpriced, and the most disappointing waste of 60$ i have ever spent. I made an account JUST to leave this review, I detest it that much. Blizzard usually makes quality products, but this is surely just a simple money grab. Do not waste your time or money on this waste of space on your PS4. Fin.
-
Jul 12, 2016Yet another "universal acclaim" from critics and not even 6 from users, Pay2Win game. Unfortunately, Blizzard reputation is long time gone by now and this game won't help it. Lot's of cash for empty, solely multiplayer game, with "opportunity to pay" and so legally cheat on unbalanced gameplay.
Not worth your money. -
Aug 8, 2016Story (0/10) - there is none
Soundtrack (2/10) - voice acting is silly, and childish, while the music is nothing memorable
Gameplay (1/10) - heroes are unbalanced, there is zero reward for being a skilled player and zero punishment for trolling
Graphics (2/10) - there are PS3 games that look better ( let's say The Last of Us) -
Apr 2, 2018Excellent game first 15 hours. After bothering the same maps. Very few heroes. There are no updates and new content. Each game is similar to the previous one. There is no balance. Waste of money.
-
Jun 22, 2016Honestly i have put over 50 hours into this game and i love it. It's so much fun playing with your friends the only thing they can really make better is more maps and different game modes. Other then that it's a great game i highly recommend!
