No it was not.
Overwatch is a team shooter like TF2. Valorant is a Tactical Shooter like CSGO.

It was made for CSGO players, its devs have made no bones about that.
I would argue it was made for people who thought heroes like Tracer, Genji, 76 and McCree would be playable for most player base like at launch.
Nowdays you are lucky if one of them is meta and you have to wait a long time to play them
Overwatch is a fast based team reliant MOBA shooter , Valorant is a tactical shooter with some Moba stuff ( CS GO with abilities )
Can we stop comparing the two games
Overwatch was sold as a first person shooter.
But the game slowly started to move from that perspective to low effort and overtuned characters.
This game would be ten times better if devs could get rid of ;
Beams
Auto Aim (Bob-Turrets ) mechanics
Less CC and stunts in general.
Did you even read the content? I’m just saying everyone who’s comparing overwatch with valorant thought overwatch was a normal shooter which is false because, as you said, is a moba
Get rid of half the roster lul

What is a tactical shooter?
I can’t dispute this.

Maybe if Valorant takes away the people who want to play Overwatch as a normal shooter, the people who remain will give feedback that pushes the game’s balance back towards hero variety and ability-based counterplay.
It means the game is about guns, crisp shooting and getting head shots.
Hard disagree. I like OW because it’s NOT a csgo style game.

OW was the best back in 2016-2017 when we didn’t have tons of annoying characters starting with Sombra/Briggite/Orisa etc.
Since then devs introduced more unpleasant mechanics like stuns/cc/pulls/hacks.
I love how we currently have a Sniper with CC and her ult is basically calling a 7th player to the match who can tank up to 6 people shotting at him without feeding ult charge and of coruse deal tons of damage with Torbjorn turret aimbot.

It was made for people who want a hero shooter, but don’t want to shoot at shields all day or die to heroes that don’t require aiming
The focus is on aim and reflexes. Unlike OW where aiming is optional, and the focus is on ult farming
OW was a meme in the early years, and terrible for competitive. There was nothing to really stop dive, so dive ruled forever. Certain characters were absolute trash tier (basically all of the defense class), and no one knew what they were doing. OW now is honestly the best it’s ever been, outside of a couple characters that need to be changed (bastion for example).
