Honestly very unfortunate having to deal with such bugs, so many ideas lost to the vestiges of time due to the neglect of such worrisome problems

I’m trapped in a freezing, endless tundra with no warmth in sight. I’ve been here for 5 years, ever since Overwatch Workshop became available. My captor, who resembles a frostbitten Mei from the “Frozen Wasteland” custom game, says I can only leave when Blizzard finally fixes all the workshop bugs. Please, I can’t take the cold anymore. Please.

Blizzard’s approach to the Overwatch Workshop bugs is like trying to solve a puzzle with pieces that don’t quite fit. They’ve got this whole ‘we’re on it’ promise, but every patch feels like it’s adding new pieces that make the puzzle even more confusing. If their bug fixes were a jigsaw puzzle, it would be one with missing pieces and edges that never align properly.

I couldn’t agree more! This is exactly what’s been on my mind. Fingers crossed that Blizzard takes this feedback seriously.
