Just as the title says.
Ow1 yes had fun last few years of ow1 I deleted than came back to try out 0W2 just feels like. TDM every game kinda disappointed in it
2016-2017 Funky Good time
2018 Aight… Imma head out Sponge Bob meme
2019-2022 drought plays Sound of Silence “Hello darkness my old friend…”
2023- meh, just another f2p shooter.
I’ve had a good time playing OW. I’ve tried to quit multiple times, but I come back because of friends and I like the heroes, the lore, and the style of game.
I’ve never been more invested in a game before, but unless the devs pull their heads out of their you know what, then OW’s glory days are long behind us.
An intriguing game hampered by trying to balance silly fun with competitive seriousness.
Hope the game’s story gets implemented into the game, and wish that the equivalent to Team Fortress’s Mann VS. Machine was seen to the finish line.
Heck, I would’ve taken having a small roster of heroes available at launch, with the rest being implemented overtime.
OW1 and OW1 beta was hella fun until the first balance changes.
Then i stopped.
Then i occasionally came back.
I played Overwatch 2 for the first seasons and lost interest because its just a worse game than OW1.
So, overall pretty mid to bad.
I would describe it like having my house robbed and the thief shagged my dog then took a dump in my closet.
Joined in 2018 and fell in love instantly. It wasn’t the gameplay that captured me, but the characters. Over time, OW1’s flaws were continually annoying me. Long que times, boring tanks, double shield, etc. stopped playing but was excited for OW2.
Been playing Ow2 heavily since release. Love both the characters and gameplay now
An abusive and toxic spouse where they are nice like 5% of the time.
i still like it thats why im here. wondering about the future tho, will it burn to the ground. ill be around if it does. i think that will be exciting also heh. if we do have another LONG content draught i may just give up and play something else tho
My time with Overwatch: A picture essay
2016-2017, me, a Tracer main, happy, in my element, unstoppable:
Early 2018, Brig 1.0 is released. Me, still a Tracer main:
Mid-2018, 100% of my friends leave the game. Am now lost. Alone. Play only Mystery Heroes trying to find a new main.
2019, am now an Ana main, meet new friends but can’t play with most them because they play on PC and I play on console.
2020, play ranked for the first time. Thanks, I hate it.
2021, buy a PC, get to play with friends, learn to love PvP again, future seems bright.
2022, OW2 comes out and ruins so much of what I loved.
2023, slowly coming to terms with what was lost, adapting and accepting, and am learning to love what is left.
i had a blast with overwatch 1 all the way through. i actually liked the mercy rework when it came out, though most mercy mains didn’t like the reduction in her overall importance to the game. in the months leading up to overwatch 2, i was really nervous. but i had a great time in overwatch 2 season 1 and 2, because the rework to mercy movement was a huge skill ceiling increase and dropping on fools like i was an echo is still mad fun. but over time my opinion of the game has soured. i still log in sometimes, and i do have fun. but the days where i could sit down and play 10 matches of overwatch in a row are gone. i get this powerful urge to close the game after just 1 or 2.
