Overwatch 2

The game itself is alright. However, the game is essentially the exact same thing. Almost immediately we're notified that we won't have the promised pve campaign until 2023, additionally there have been several glitches. It got so bad to the point where one character has been removed from the game! Addition There are glitches where I would get play of the game by doing absolutely nothing... literally. Although I did not like it, they removed the loot box system and replaced it with a shop. The only way to collect free currency is the weekly challenges which only rewards a maximum of 60 coins. If I correctly recalled playing matches rewarded players with 10 coins. It wasn't much but it definitely beats this joke of a system.

This game honestly doesn't feel like a sequel to Overwatch. It feels far more like a reboot. While I have enjoyed some aspects of it all in all this has certainly been a let down for me.

Overwatch 2 is like a 1.1 patch. They remove content, delaying content. PvP and the new battle pass system are the main focus.

In the past they announced PvE and many features during trailers that are not even there.

Monetarization is a completely scam, you cannot get any good skins during grinding, because it takes more than a half year to play consistently. They fake discounts and uses all - sadly - modern standards of grabbing money.

But people are still playing and invest money, poor state of gaming.

It is more of the same, but different.

One of the big selling points of Overwatch have been playing with friends, and making new ones. They have now removed this function completely so you have to find people while playing, which would be fine if everything was working. But I does not. Not only is it hard to find someone that actually talks, but to also find someone in the same skill rating range and that actually tries their best.

In addition, a lot of people are being thrown around in the skill rating in places they should not be and with the changes to competitive they are stuck there for way to long ruining the experience of other players.

This is some of the thing I personally noticed and wanted to highlight in the hopes of this getting better over time. There are also a lot of other problems with the game, but luckily it seams like they are continually working on improving the gaming experience.

As a newcomer to overwatch, I really enjoyed it. The base game is quite simple, and not hard to get into. The amount of unique characters in this game is impressive, with almost all of the characters being fun to play as, ass well as a incredible amount of backstop and lore for each of then. The colourful world designe, as well as the cheerfull music in the game really helps bringing this game to life. Yes, the game has its fair share of bugs, not the best queues, and a questionable battle pass, but most of these can be overlooked on regard to how fun the game can be. I highly recommend giving this game a shot. It can be quite a nice refresher compared to other multiplayer shooters we today. Be sure to try the game with a friend.

Just your average Overwatch 1 enjoyer who genuinely enjoyed playing this game before they switched to Overwatch 2. They followed the trend and added a battle pass. REALLY guys. Stop with this. It's every damn game now. Other than that, Overwatch 2 also prevented people from opening any leftover boxes they had after the switch, and that sucks. The game is ALL about "money money money" instead of having an enjoyable game to play. RIP Overwatch. Their new playable characters are also mostly garbage, aside for maybe Kiriko, but even if one new one is fun to play, there's just so much bad that makes it just SAD to play now. It'll always feel like a shadow of its former self.
