subjective reasoning, however I have no doubt they are already working on the Archive stuff, which is probably the only event content anyone even cares about anymore, because, you know, itās actually new content.

They are taking their usual 2-month holiday vacation. Will be very busy afterwards - Overwatch League Season 2 demands all their attention.

Esports are very important for the gameās longevity. They are just not appreciated much by casual audience.

Thatās really the fault of the people producing the eventās entertainment. If they stopped treating it like a āsportingā event, and treated it more like a WWE match. More banter, more trash talking, more memes, promoting rivalry (even if it was fake), more bikinis, it would be appreciated and be waaaaay more watched.
A person like xQc (who I donāt even like btw) could thrive in this kind of āentertainmentā environment, where he canāt in a sporting environment. Personally I think that transition would make them a killing $$$$$

Itās been the most reliable event for story progression too.
apart from the McCree/Ashe cinematic this year, Archives has been the only thing pushing that forward.

I dont think so, thanks to the serious character, the OWL got big sponsorings and it was on big tv channels.
I heard that ca. 30.000k viewers were needed to make the league a succes. Well it got way more than that.
Outside of esports, the OWL is seen as the most quality esport format.
If it would be like the WWE, it would be just another esport format, like all the other

If they talk about X, complain they dont talk about Y
If they dont talk, complain they dont talk

Hey all,
developers are allowed to communicate with us, they just donāt do it that often because they are working, or they donāt want to make a promise they canāt keep.
āAll of our developers are free to post on these forums. Very few of us actually do because itās extremely intimidating and/or time consuming. Itās very easy to post the wrong thing and make a āpromiseā to the community that no one intended to make. Once we say weāre working on something, weāre not allowed to ātake it back.ā Itās set in stone.ā

Which is a kinda fatal design point. Whoās going to care about OWL if no one wants to play the core game?

is it that hard to give regular updates about what they are working on. i get it that they cant work on everything. but knowing generally where the game is headed would be nice before it blows up in our faces.
