I wish there was a game like Overwatch but easier

I wish there was a game like Overwatch , but with easier heroes (and more brawly) and to require less aim mechanics. Due to my dyspraxia i have hard time with the game. The only heroes i play consistently are Moira, Lw and Mercy and people either ban them or saying the worst because they are “Easy” heroes. Forum, reddit and discord server, all ppl curse these 3 heroes exactly because they require less mechanics than others. I Wish we had more of those (for example the next Water support, to have easy mechanics)
If Ana for example had a minor perk like her stadium power that “auto locks” her allies for healing (it doesn’t autolock , it’s just easier than normal) , i would main her too! It would be perfect
If only there was a game tho like Ow, but with easier heroes and decent matchmaking i would love it (Paladins has easier aim but wayyy worse matchmaking and it’s actually dead now). Oof

What about Smite 2!

:zap:

It’s called Marvel Rivals. You’ve got Loki (Aim at floor), Dagger (Auto aim), Rocket (Just spam from far like junkrat), Jeff (easy to aim and you can shoot from far as well).

Marvel Rivals feels the same hard mechanically to me. Or even Harder sometimes.
Smite 2 seems nice suggestion. Is it worth it now ?

Scarlet witch and rocket in marvel rivals probably easiest heroes ever in any shooter… +cloak/dagger, mr fantastic,iron fist, hulk, thor… zero aim required on many characters

I haven’t played smite 2 but I used to play smite every day. I would probably recommend it, it’s a lot of fun.

That’s why extreme diversity is bad esp. in PvP imo. They are more anti-fun for each other than pro-. Nobody satisfied fully.

When there were two games and and one has only characters with sweaty and hardcore mechanics, and the other with aimless brawly, then both people would have enjoyed more than both combined imo.

But I think the latter should have something more to be popular enough like emphasizing social aspects and etc.

Loki has to do a hell of a lot more than aim at the floor

You named Mercy LW Moira. Not all of them are banned.

There is also healbot Lucio who can be very effective in low ranks.
Torb requires very little aim.
In tank there is Winston and Rein.

I feel like OW is quite friendly to people who can’t aim.

I understand Rocket and C&D, but Loki and Jeff? Dude.

When I read things like the post you quoted, it makes me think of when people complain about the matchmaker. One team is working together, using team-ups, knows their kits. Your team? You get BlueMonkey aiming at the floor as Loki.

GG. :laughing: #DiveIsTooHard #SupportStrike

Hey man, the floor is people, too. It deserves healing. I always make sure to include the walls and ceiling as well, so they don’t feel left out.

Scarlet witch is my main. And Dagger for support + some of rocket. But still Marvel Rivals feels tough . Not big differences than Ow. I meant games like Splatoon but for pc. Plants Vs Zombies GW2 comes to mind but it’s a bit dead i guess ?

I’m going to make a very tentative suggestion here since I haven’t actually played the game myself and this might, in truth, be a really bad game for you: but have you investigated Exoprimal at all? From the little I know, it’s an OW kind of game but it’s PvE instead of PvP; you and your team fight a million dinosaurs instead of other players.

Then there are the spiritual successors to Left 4 Dead, which had both a PvP mode and a PvE mode. I haven’t played Helldivers 2 but perhaps you can find your groove in Deep Rock Galactic?

Honestly, though, I think it’s fine for you to simply play the likes of Mercy and Moira in OW. If anyone’s giving you grief then they can just naff off, frankly. You deserve to enjoy the video game.

Noone is talking about skill ceiling.

The OP is literally requesting an OW like game with easier characters. It’s in the first sentence.

Now read my answer again.

Your answer only pertained to aiming. And we all know there is more to a character as far as aim. Especially since he requested aim and mechanics. Suggesting Loki, who is the most mechanically demanding support in MR is lining him up for failure.

C&D and Rocket, sure. They make sense from an aim and mechanics standpoint. But Loki? Just no.

Do you play on pc or console? Cause my first thought was maybe play the game on console? Controller with aim assist? Or even switch with gyro controls (Might make other heroes more playable as well)

Also wondering if anything exists in the settings (like accessibility stuff - I don’t personally go through those menus so not sure what’s there)

Marvel Rivals is about as easy as it gets for mechanics.

You can go to the practice range to see how forgiving hitbox and critboxes are.

Scarlet Witch is Moira on steroids.

They can make something easier but it is still up to you to learn the matchups, job of your hero, positioning etc.

If you don’t then these games aren’t for you.
