OW seems to be doing great. Why does it need “saving” The Queue times are so fast… (Under 5 mins and most of the time under 3 mins).
People are playing more than ever before.
The good will from the community need to be saved
If it ever can be saved

But why does it? If you have a game that is working (fast queue times) then people are playing your game. That means to are successful. Why do you really care what the community things if you have a winning successful model. Why do you think they went battle pass… Why do you think they didn’t care about canceling PVE… they said themselves that PvE was not worth it for them.
Have you been living under a rock
The steam reviews prove it all, this game’s fanbase is not happy with the current product and developers

It’s not dead but far from “doing great”. They’ve stopped the bleeding, that’s about it. Overwatch bled….A LOT
Personally, blizzard should send out surveys to people who haven’t logged in for a while. Ask why the stopped playing and focus on bringing players back.
Adding new content only goes so far when there’s glaring fundamental issues plaguing the game.

Queue times are only short because there’s no balancing. They pick the first 10 players available.

OW doesn’t need saving, queue times are better than they’ve ever been and we’re getting more content than ever

Yes it does
These kind of “the game is so active” posts always come at the start of the season.
Yes, people are active because they wanna max out their battlepasses fast. Fact is this will die down after the first 3-4 weeks and half the season its gonna be back to dwinling audience.
People are getting tired of having nothing to show for the hours they put into the game, I put 800 hours into OW2, and all I have are the battlepass skins that I technically paid for (even if with bing earned coins, I could’ve spend them on something else)
In OW1 800 hours meant at least a thousand cosmetics from lootboxes, and because they were random they were unique, nobody had the exact same cosmetics that I had, it was fun comparing our skins and cosmetics with friends.
The current reward system is basically non-existing while the prices are unreasonable and unaffordable.

HA spot on too for this game
Employees should be a bit more subtle than this.

though all of this is stated as if it were fact, most of it is opinion, not fact
in particular, many players are reporting worse queue times than we experienced in OW1, and in 2 queues instead of 1. as such, it appears to me that queue times are worse in the current pay to win game
even at that, as at least one other has already stated, Blizzard has improved queue times by loosening MMR ranges, resulting in more lopsided games…which bottom line means a slightly lesser wait for more frequent but much lower quality matches
as far as saving the game, it is likely imo that the new leavers rules will result in fewer players playing overall, and we are already seeing lower quality game due to those who would have formerly left a game staying but performing poorly if at all, taking up a spot that would formerly have been taken by a fill player
so there are a lot of problems with the current pay to win game we now have, and I do see it as in need of saving

I’m no employee of Blizzard lol. I’m just stating facts 
My queue times are much better now than they were in OW1, and objectively we’re getting more content than we ever did during OW1 as far as I can tell. More frequent skins/maps/modes/heroes/reworks etc.
OP here needs to understand what it means to main tank role and do it for the rest of the season to understand the plight they turn a blind eye upon.
And maybe avoid support, unless of course its for your “all roles” challenge for the day.
You either don’t understand, or you don’t bother trying to understand here.
Imagine if Blizzard actually did that. We might as well wish for world peace lmao
