Overwatch 2: Two years in - A review

Today is the two year anniversary of Overwatch 2!

So here’s a little review!

Gameplay: very good 9.5 out of 10

Content: maps heroes and skins excellent 10 out of 10

Graphics: Excellent 10 out of 10 but needs ray tracing and frame generation

Accessibility: 8 out of 10 (no mouse and keyboard support for console no Mac support)

Overall: 9.5 out of 10!

Do you work ign or something mainstream like that?

From that points alone is solid, yes. But monetarisation is around a 5/10 (yes, middle of the road) and the baance is also just a 6/10 (feels random at times).

But OW is a good game, no matter what people say here.

I guess Blizzard does look at the forums, here we have an employee advertising the game!

That score seems a little bit low. I would give it at least a 9.6 out of 10.

overwatch will always be my favorite competitive game but i do miss the open queue days and launch days of overwatch 1. still no matter how much it has changed i can never get around to just quitting. guess i dont know how to do anything else or play another shooter

wonder if marvel rivals will draw me in

Ray tracing would only serve to make the game’s performance even worse without adding a whole lot of visual fidelity and frame generation would just make the game unplayable whenever you move your camera, making it so you can’t see through the AI slop across your screen.

These things are definitely not “needed”

OW1 is still better, OW2 is regressive.

Seems like someone needs to touch grass. Not sure what modes you play, but there seems to be a massive amount of players who would have negative numbers in all categories.

You know you don’t need to quote the whole OP post when you reply? You just create a lot of noise.

Matchmaking -11/10
Competence of the devs -25/10

With enough noise maybe the Dev’s will actually listen to the players for once.

over my long years i have met 100’s of gamers IRL… while i know people like this exist, not 1 of the people i have met would give OW2 above a 6/10

this has to be satire or something, like twitter, were 5 people feel like 10k, but in reality its only 5 people

The OP was selective in what they scored. For gameplay it could mean how the heroes play, which is excellent.

But you could add

matchmaking : 2/10
match quality : 3/10
fun heroes: 6/10
fun game modes: 5/10

and so on.

We need a less facetious ThinnBuddha in our midst to counterbalance all this exuberance, imo.

2 Year Report on Overwatch 2.

  • Still not OverWatch
  • Still not the game I paid for back in 2017
  • Not the same characters
  • Pay to glam
  • Russian Roulette of character nerfs
  • Tanks too impactful
  • Support not impactful enough
  • DPS either OP, or weak

The only game mode I enjoy anymore is Total Mayhem, where it’s still open season on how many tanks/healers/dps you can have, and they’re all OP as heck. At least that game mode came from OW1 and is still fun.

OP posts here from multiple accounts like this. All his posts look like they’re written by AI
