No offense, but they never said that they got reworks more so that they’ve been shafted and crippled by bugs, ineffective in their niche and one got put in a state worse than it was beforehand and hasn’t actually been improved since.
Umm…I don’t think them being Support heroes or not should matter when they’ve experienced the same treatment overall.
This is incredibly disingenuous to say considering that Symmetra has more or less been a non-factor for a much longer period of time than Mercy.
No, apples and bananas aren’t the same but that really doesn’t apply here.
The point being made is that most, if not ALL heroes in the game get ignored and shafted throughout Overwatch’s lifetime and that to act as if a singular group has gotten the short end of the stick and ONLY them, is a very close-minded view to have.
Nobody really gets listened to in terms of feedback.
Roadhog-Mains didn’t want the 30% damage reductions, Sombra-Mains didn’t want the 75% to 50% decrease in stealth, Lucío-Mains didn’t want their aura radius to be shrunk, Widowmaker-Mains did not want their Grappling Hook cooldown to be reverted to 10 seconds.
It happens to everyone and that’s the point that needs to be made.
Mercy is not the only victim throughout all this.
People are entitled to their opinion, yes this is true.
However, people are also entitled to have said opinion challenged and for most players outside the Mercy-demographic, they feel the exact same way that Mercy-Mains do in terms of general treatment.
You’re not doing yourself much if favors by acting in the manner that you are currently.
I don’t know about the person who responded to you, but sensible people don’t call others entitled unless there’s a reason for it.
…and unfortunately, I have to agree.
Some Mercy-Mains are entitled and present themselves as suffering in a manner that anyone who doesn’t main Mercy will never understand when the opposite is in fact, true.
Despite how frustrating it may be to play Mercy, at least you can take solace in the fact that your character is still A) Very viable & B) Still gets some form of developer response and attention.
Otherwise, we’d all be like the Bastion-Mains who are like the red-headed stepchild of the entire roster.
…and Lord only knows what’s going to happen when Torbjörn gets his rework…
All-in-all, you are not alone…we are all frustrated and suffering in this game together…and nobody really has it worse than the other.
…
…Unless you main Bastion or Torbjörn, then life just hates you.
Everybody wants this and that’s fine, I agree with wanting this sort of viability wholeheartedly.
I just don’t get down with this idea that only this specific subset within the community is getting it worse than the others (except for Bastion & Torbjörn) because at the end of the day, we’re all struggling in this game just like the other guy.
