Just thought this was interesting
Hopefully we get the PVE back, if so this is a rare Blizzard and Microsoft W

Itās a new game, not Overwatch 3 
Iām super lore fan. My personal reaction:
seriously, why not directly make a narrative single player that satisfies those who are specifically interested in the lore while letting the PVP development continue as it wants? They also tried through events to do some experimentation on replayability, but they never really succeeded. I like bioshock, but I wouldnāt play the same story 50 times continuously for filling the servers every month.
if they did like Starcraft II everyone would be happy: if you want lore you have a real lore to play whenever you want and at the difficulty you want. possibly not that too short demo that they left us unfinished, it must be a āfirst chapterā that responds to the curiosity of the community from the beginning to the end of a real narrative arc.
Well it only took 5 years on hold for the last pve scam to fall through. Iām sure this one is a lock though. 
I doubt this is Overwatch-related - unless we suddenly start seeing people who used to work on Overwatch PVE (the ones who were let-go at the start of this year) returning to Blizzard.
Starcraft seems more likely.
Having said that, a standalone Overwatch PVE game (think Helldivers, only you drop into Human vs Omnic battlefields) would be way better than trying to shoehorn PVE gameplay into a class-based PVP FPS game - their previous approach.
even if Iām a super Starcraft fanā¦ first I DEMAND that they do the PVE that never came for Overwatch, and then (MAYBE) they can continue with the poor Starcraft that they themselves abandoned. I donāt intend to see that IP ruined by the same promises of OW"2" by putting the āIIIā above the title to justify a price update.
they failed to give any replayability to the PVE (or rather, in its DEMO, because calling Invasion āfirst chapterā is almost offensive for anyone looking for a lore with answers), nor did they manage to make convincing experiments with the events or the gautlet mode. why would they try again justifying a āstacraft 3ā?

I donāt see why it has to be a choice.
This could be OW but PvE with a completely separate development team. So what they should have done to begin with. Give it around 3-5 years and we could have what players wanted from OW PvE.
It is not going to be OW.
It wouldnāt have been canceled on the first place if it was it.
With all the negativity around blizzard why would anyone want to work for them? Just because they have a new company doesnāt mean things will get better.
