Nice map (One of the best to me).
“Legacy of kain” is not a classic.
My concern is that Jeff was a known character.
Some liked him, others didn’t.
But he had proven path.
Keller is coming from nowhere.
Having modern bli²/activision saying Keller did something is a completely different thing.
Where is the proof ?
To me, this guy will just use OW fanbase and create nothing.
We need to be reasured about OW2.
You asked about other gaming experience he had.
That looks like Kellers…
The proof is the stuff he did.
I’m not sure why you think this guy did nothing.
Or else you need to give him a chance.
He has a good record, and it seems like you just want to beat someone up.
I’ll take a cringey-but-enthusiastic dev over a boring Shmoe from marketing any day of the week.
Not everyone can be as cool as Jeff was. 
I wonder if Jeff was let got because of the direction OW2 is going. Based on this Aaron’s work on retribution you can see his team having a big impact on PvE and Jeff was no longer required as a director and that Aaron would replace him…Sure they make video games but there’s always the business and management side to it, which is always ugly.
Could be worse. He could be the mastermind behind Paris or HLC…
Ohhh is is that guy who spoke the majority of the stuff in the Overwatch 2 blizzcon thing? He seems pretty agreeable. Not sure if I would prefer him over Jeff but he sure seems like a nice person.
it just doesn’t sound the same.
imagine him in the place of jeff, that would be the death of overwatch for sure.
6 months from now:
Hey everyone! Aaron from the overwatch team here! I’ve hit the ground running and I’m super excited to tell you about the new direction Overwatch is taking over the next year! To start with, we’ve noticed a lot of negative feedback about certain heroes and maps, so we’re permanently removing all heroes but Doomfist and Mei and all Maps except Paris! We think that’ll set a new frame of reference and really boost the perception these features have!
Obviously I’m poking fun here, put down your pitchforks people…
He is more soft-spoken in my view and yes the personality will be different. In the little time, I had to chat with him at the Blizzard Arena, I believe he is passionate about both the community and success of the esport programs. He has never really posted before here on the forums but did say that he often browsed and read many of the threads. If I remember what he is said is right, it was because Jeff was the one to step up and speak for Team 4.
I think the thing we are all going to miss about Jeff Kaplan is his personality and how his image because just as much of a trademark to the Overwatch franchise as Tracer is on the cover of the box art. I think we are also afraid about what the new unknown will bring, and that is alright, but I am hopeful this is the start of a new chapter in this game and in our community.
I like his name, much better than Jeffeee
He was the main voice for overwatch during the ow2 blizzconline penal. He talked more then Jeff there. And yeah people overhype a director chànge. Nothing will change.
I want to see change. Just give us more content, remove role queue só the queue times aren’t 30 minutes. Add battle passes for more great skins, literally anything. We need to innovate and compete with other heroes.
i hope he didnt have anything to do with pretty much any map released after junkertown tbh
Honestly he might do some good work with OW as a game director but I will still dearly miss Jeff as the public face with his talks.
retribution is the best pve event imo by far
This is not a bad thing honestly, since they hired him that means it’s definitely not for his interpersonal skills, which means his game-related skill is more than likely to be great.
He’s the guy who designed Stormwind and worked on Wrath of the Lich King? He helped create King’s Row in OW?
That’s some iconic stuff right there. I’m sold!
It would be really weird to not hear
“This is Jeff from the Overwatch team”
I’m hoping he messes up at least once solely so I can hit him with “You done messed up A-a-ron.”
