I have like 2700 hours in the game. Been playing since day one of the original game.
The game is simply miserable to play at this time, and I have to vent as I’m sure many come here to do.
5v5 is garbage.
Sombra is garbage.
DPS passive is garbage. It makes healing feel inconsistent.
The game feels like massive garbage to play, but it used to be fun.
I strongly want to quit the game, but I have a lot of free time cuz I’m on disability and it sucks not being able to play one of my fav games.
Thank you for reading my rant. GL next game.

If you don’t like the game, don’t make yourself miserable by playing it. It’s not fun for you, and it’s not fun for those you make it a problem for. There are plenty of good games out there, you don’t have to play this one.

Currently looking for other games to play but I’ve already tried almost everything lol. Iv been lost since beating the Elden DLC lol.
I still need to get around to doing that, but I don’t want to play through it with a NG+ character and I’m almost too burnt out of it to play through with a new one. I’m just chipping away by like an hour at a time.
I second Hungarth’s opinion here: If a game (any game) makes you miserable, you at the very least need to take a long break from it, if not give it up entirely.
Life is far too short to spend it playing games that aren’t worth your time.
I third Hungary’s opinion. If you are not having fun, what’s the point?
That being said, I understand the struggle of finding a shooter that lives up to Overwatch. Back when I quit for a year, I went to Dead by Daylight because the other FPS games are just not it. I also temporarily returned to fighting games. That was fun. You almost have to find a different genre because nothing will compare.
Genshin Impact is a great time sink if you just want a game with mountains of content.

The game has become dogwater. Matchmaking is terrible, match integrity is terrible, the anti-cheat is afk, hero balance is laughably bad.

People come here to gripe because it is not only the only forum for feedback to the devs, it is the official forum for feedback. They come here because they want the game to improve.

This is how the forums have been for years now.
Has gotten worse since ow2 I think tho
The matchmaker is criminally bad, and who ever is in charge of that trash thing should be fired and blacklisted.

ya its a massive accomplishment that they managed to ruin core gameplay loops, that people who put up with everything else over years and still enjoyed the game are forced to leave.
This is what happens when you give a beautiful garland to a monkey’s hand.

vanquish is a fantastic shooter
binary domain

wait for fragpunk and rivals in pvp
every shooter in the pvp eco system is outright garbage currently, only games i would recommend there are cs2 and quake champions.

All I can say is take a break. I took a year off from OW1 to play OW2 beta, then hit OW2 hard. Now i’m in a bit of a less playing phase from burn out.
At the same time, if you dont’ like something, just don’t play it.

There’s nothing keeping me playing anymore. The devs have already shown a lack of understanding and I don’t see any of the problems being addressed properly.
I can only play a few hours of OW a week now before I get bored or frustrated. It’s hard to let go because some of us have put so many hours into the game and they removed what made it fun.
It’s nothing like the game I bought back in 2017 and it makes me sad that we’ll never get that back.
I’ve been working on my backlog of games and been enjoying them much more than beating my head against a wall in OW.

Try hades if you haven’t, easy to dump hours in to. When you get an itch to play, play a few games of OW and maybe stop on a win.
Without the sarcasm, how’s that working out?
Me, Pushed and prayed or the PVE and look what they gave use, only 3 mission and called it quits.
Like what was the friggin point now?!
“A new adventure begins”
You just have to laugh
Really wanted to punch Arron for cancelling it.
I don’t play much as I don’t enjoy it a ton lately. Is what it is.
Agreed. I’m addicted, holding out hope for something long gone and never to return.
I play QP, there’s a crackhead high school dropout Doomfist, Sombra, or Genji + pocket.
I play Comp, my team argues like an old married couple considering poisoning each other.
I play Mystery Heroes, they get 4 tanks and a healer.
I play Lucio Ball the enemy team is a 3 stack of sweats.
This game just evolved past me. It has NO CHILL anymore. I can’t listen to music, I feel like I can’t stay still for one second without taking 1000 projectiles to the face, I always feel like a Sombra’s stalking me. I just hate how chaotic and deathmatch its become. I’m so tired of it, yet I want to keep playing hoping I’ll have fun. But the zero communication other than to call each other slurs and lack of balanced matchmaking/game synergy that just leads to unsatisfying roll or be rolled is just miserable. I lose 5 I know I’ll be spoon-fed some wins to keep me playing.
