Perhaps Iām not alone in having felt increasingly disillusioned with this game for more than a year now. Iāve tried my best in being patient and understanding of the balance changes and complete rework of some heroes, in hopes that with enough engagement and feedback with developers, a better balance might be struck for everyone involved. Maybe thatās naive of me to believe possible from a development standpoint.
But it continuously feels as if feedback falls on deaf ears. Even when it comes to bugs that make some heroās kits unpredictable in execution. The only exception seemingly being when influencers and OWL players make their opinions heard.
I know the majority of the playerbase for this game upholds the value of āskillā above all else. Usually this is just synonymous with āaimā. And it really does feel like thereās been an ongoing erosion of most of the accessible heroes this game has had to offer.
At this point I think things are spiraling downward. Especially when you consider the new OWL command centre costs almost as much as the standard version of Overwatch. Itās clear where the money lies, and where the teamās priorities are placed. And Iām honestly just really sad about it!
They are frowned upon when thousands of threads say the exact same thing that everyone knows. Yours specifically is no different. I would get a similar response that I gave you if I made another rework Mercy thread, regardless of how strongly I believe in it.
You seem to forget that not everyone spends the entire day lurking the forums. Itās funny because it seems like saltiness and number of posts are positively correlated
That wasnāt my full point. I also mentioned that the devs not being on top of things is obvious to anyone who keeps up with the game, and a forum post like this is just stating the obvious.
If I made a thread saying, ābastion isnāt picked much and that isnāt goodā would I suddenly be praised and everyone would go āhold up youāre right, I only just noticed omg thank you so muchā.
Before abandon OW, i think iāll see Echo. I want her so much, and she could give me new air or nope.
I hope she will give me the enjoyment i had in the first days.
But she should arrive fastly.
Mentioning the same issue over and over makes it a clear point that something is wrong. If many players feel the same way then thereās a problem. Thatās the way all forums for companies work. If many customer report the same grievance than something is definitely wrong. Chill out and stop trying to police the forum.
You cant be certain that it has been, mentioning it again is a good way to make it known its an issue. The more posts about it the higher its priority.
Its a subtle way to tell someone āstop posting thisā
So, dissatisfied people should just not communicate because other people have already said something similar? Iām failing to see any logic here.
Itās telling that there is so much dissent towards the development team. Itās an indication that perhaps things really do need to change, and a precursor in creating change.
Iād suggest spending less time on this forum if you donāt like these types of threads popping up. It might be healthier for you that way. Instead of trying to silence people via putdowns, just because youāre tired of such topics. Girl, please.
