“Overwatch 2 is a competitive game even for Unranked game modes”, written by a dev about a game mode that is “UNRANKED”; actually only the half of the real ranked game mode, so it’s really rigged and not fair on many maps and game types; mode where you can’t choose the servers (you can be connected to a random 200 ping game for some reason with perfectly fine internet, I’m not even talking about choosing not to play against other 200 ping players); mode where you can be put in an unfinished game that’s literally less than 10s away from the end that grants you defeat automatically and you can’t even get out of the spawn; mode that is “balanced” (lmao) differently than the actual RANKED mode; mode where you can be put against a cheater and you still have to finish the game and not allowed to leave; mode where you can be solo queueing against a full 5 stack; mode where your team mates can be throwing and trolling the game and you can’t even block them because in the OW2 universe there can’t be more than 3 people like this in existence at once (I’m not even talking about toxic people).
This game can only be fun if you are playing (or trying to play) it casually, but currently there’s no way to play it casually, because it takes itself too seriously and thinks it’s a competitive game, when it’s actually “balanced” (lmao x2) for wasting casual-wanna-be-pro-FeelsSpecialMan type of players time and money.
P.S. Maybe people really like having 2 versions of “ranked” game modes where one is scuffed in interesting and obvious ways (guess which one), and are really into this sado-maso-schizo relationship with the game (I honestly really don’t judge), but I have preemtively actioned my account a penalty effective immediately and won’t participate in this kinky act called “competitive team based overwatch 2”. I enjoyed beta testing this game for the most part, and wish everyone to have fun in it. People deserve the games they play. <3
