Are you enjoying OW2 more, the same, or less, and why?
Just trying to see if the countless minor and major changes are effecting other people’s experience the way they seem to be effecting my experience.
Less honestly, the only mode I enjoy is Total Mayhem. At this point, I just want LW’s golden weapon on my main account and now Juno’s, but outside that. This game is so watered down, and the balance changes are very questionable in my opinion.
Overwatch 1 > Overwatch 2 any day. Revert all the changes.

Ehh less. I like the new heroes, but it feels like everything is gone from OW1.
- The lore is now a mess and they barely do anything with it (the lore was a massive part of the games popularity)
- 5v5 makes tanking less fun for me, I do not like how much pressure it puts on me to do everything and be the teams anchor
- The monetization changes make it so I can’t get that hype from opening a lootbox and getting a legendary. I got all my skins through the free level and arcade loot boxes.
- There is MORE hero favouritism. We had it in OW1, but this game takes it to a new level. We used to release with 4 legendaries per hero, now only the heroes the community simps for get skins.

Less, QP is just team deathmatch, people are allowed to troll and sabotage games “because its qp” trying seems to be frowned upon, if i want to leave eaely because of terrible game quality im pubished for it.
Tanks are the mosg mis understood role on OW, if i get supports that want to mess around it means im basically unable to play the game. 5v5 as a format ia failining.
OW has to many negatives currently not enough pros

Less by a long long shot. I keep trying and I get a few good games here and there, but in the end of the day it feels like Im chasing a high that is not there anymore. Everything is so chaotic from game to game that skill progression feels moot. Maybe im wrong and the younger generation will stick around longer but I feel like the game will lose gas and wont last nearly as long due to the depth of the game being overall shallow…
This is very relatable

Infinitely more. There are certainly aspects of OW2 that aren’t as good, but not seeing Rein + Zarya every match sure ain’t one of them. I find every role more fun to play now.
And as much as we rag on balance, OW1 balance was literal dog piss in comparison. Bar none the most poorly balanced PvP game I’ve ever played.
But rien zar was not even that good? It was stable yes, but once rien over leveraged and died the team was open season as zars cooldowns were immense.
I mean heck dva/Winston and ball hog messed them up. All you needed was to see if your co tank was an offtank or main and you filled in working with them. It didn’t work every game but its better then tank switching in ow current form…
Its sad that I miss my random hog co tank hiding in corners and hooking supports… cause that chaos enabled some fun plays…
Good or bad doesn’t matter. Seeing it every game was boring as hell, win or lose. Long before 5v5 was announced, I posted that I’d gladly pay full price for OW2 just for the removal of Rein + Zarya. 
I’m just surprised I didn’t see it often due to the ball hog meta at the end for mid ranks and dva insert tank meta at the highest
I didn’t see tank metas much in QP other than pulled pork and double barrier, both of which sucked the fun out of the game. 
Oh ya orissa pull into hook did suck lol but it let the evil dps work and destroy them. Aka mei sym/Sombrero combos

I seriously miss the early days when the devs would tease us with amazing shorts and give us some very cool lore that back in the day people would be so hyped for, a shame that’s all in the past now.
