Well I think a big part of the radio silence comes from OW2. I think they wanna release multiple heroes for it at launch, I donāt like it either, but itās a marketing strategy.
I donāt really think they are. But I think they are trying to stretch this hero release out as far as possible so there is a variety of events for this year before Overwatch 2 considering that Overwatch wonāt be attended to as much.
Example:confirmed no new archives
But Jeff did claim one was coming.
WAS HE LYING? 
It really makes me sad to see you being so passionate about the game, waiting for a new hero finally to be released butā¦ Blizzard is just silenceā¦ 
At least a new mapā¦ Meh p-p

I hope not but I feel that theyāre trying to push hero 32 closer to ow2ās released date. That is if the leaks are true and ow2 is coming this year.
I keep the light on, when the " 
boredom appears".
Plus there is a lot of sick people 
or trapped people 
with nothing better to do with the flu being uncontrolled.
Posted a separate theory last night: š§ (Hero 32) 1/3/2 theory: This could have been a Testing ground for Echo!?! if you 2 are bored or sick.

i mean considering that jeff said āweāll release one more hero before ow2ā this seems to be the perfect time to do it but i wouldnāt dare get excited or care about that
personally my interest in the game has been dwindling and it is expected considering iāve played over 12K gamesā¦
Thereās only one hero confirmed before Overwatch 2 release and unfortunately silence is their strategy. I still remember Jeffs post when someone asked about The next hero

(Honestly they should have done a roadmap like other gaming companies have done.)
Do you really think I have not seen that post already? 
indeed. it would make sense to put the hero live half way to Overwatch2ā¦

Please note, this was Jan 30, 5 weeks ago. (not even close to the proper hint release time)
Also yeah Iām pretty aware of when he said this.
But what about saving room to āBalenceā Hero 32ā¦ This is gonna be a thing, and will usually take awhile.

The only thing I can really remember from this time last year was an angry/worried community. Apex Legs came out and was dominating the twitch scene and we were coming off the back of a less than stellar LNY event.
Iād like a new hero to try out soon, but Iām more than happy if they choose to focus on gameplay features as well, experimental or not.
Especially if itās gonna be a ābalancingā like brig 1.0

If your talking about 1/3/2, Jeff already said they are dropping it.
(honestly it seems just to be a big distraction)
Like when Mei could make people fly.
Iām aware of it, but thereāll be other things coming to Experimental soon. Iām interested to see what else the devs may have in-store for us on this card.
But features like pools, replay sharing and workshop updates are welcome ones (even if some are more questionable than others).
Whatever it is, I believe it has to be updated with a patch first, plus other technically do haās with Gigs and Stuff.
Because Console is stil console.
Also I believe he said āhe is taking the ExC down at the end of the event.ā from what I recall. (not updating or changing it.)
Did someone say Mirage buff?
Sorry, wrong gameā¦
Weird I can post again for some reason.
Must be a glitch, I donāt see anything between this and my last post.
Maybe this end up being one of the nine mysteries of the General Discussions.
