Seriously though. The devs, community managers, and even forum MVP’s don’t deserve us. To put up with the constant toxicity with stride while maintaining a well-polished game is a feat, and I applaud all those involved.
We are too ungrateful, I think we should be more appreciative of everyone that helps make the game and community a great place to be. If it wasn’t for the devs, we’d probably have a microtransaction-filled nightmare and if it wasn’t for the community managers and MVP’s, we would be left in the dark and be scrambling all over the place for news and transparency.
It’s an unappreciated role, and only seen when it goes wrong.
overwatch is a very well made game that is polished and optimized. i think it does compete with valorant, warzone, apex, fortnite, battlefield, and pubg. games that have shooter elements in them. of course atm it does seem these other games are more popular due to content, constant updates and because “all the streamers and cool kids play them hehe”
now compared to games that more similar like team fortress 2 and paladins i think it is leagues better than both at the moment. paladins is a very cool game with lots of more heroes but i dont think its as optimized as overwatch. not saying it stinks but i dont think it has a larger playerbase? team fortress 2 time has come and gone, it was an awesome game and still retains a playerbase of fans but its old… will overwatch be the same in the future. i guess its up to overwatch 2… only time will tell
I think that girl working on the till in Tescos is unappreciated. She’s stuck there all day beep beep beeping products for people. It must be mind numbingly boring and she does it for minimum wage.
it might be shocking to you, but most jobs are ungrateful and in all fairness , blizzard is first one who doesn’t treat their employees correctly / fairly
It’s funny, because microtransactions will be introduced with ow2, that’s a sure thing.
Also, the content creators on youtube and the one MVP on the forum have to work hard to find news about Overwatch.
Still, most of the news is unconfirmed and pure speculation.
Right now, this game doesn’t deserve a community and content creators.
I hope that’s what you meant to say with your post.
The only reason this game is still getting attention is because it once had a very good launch, back in 2016.
Without community, you don’t need developers and you don’t need “community managers”.
They honestly dont deserve us at all. We are too good for them. We just want the game to be good yet they seem to do everything to make it the opposite
He startet in oct 2019 and I can’t say we saw much of it
At least in the pre BFA WoW times a community manager was vital, he wrote reports on what the community drives, what changes they want to see, how the community feels about the game and so on, this directly influenced the design and balance of WoW and this gave the community the feel their opinion matters
BFA is the example what happens if you fire your community manager
The devs has been out of touch for so long and the community has been mismanaged.
Their is no interaction with the community and Blizzard, they dodge every bit of criticism and they go even as far as silencing and banning people
Sorry but I can’t see his work. Maybe it’s not his fault and Blizzards just hold him on a short leash, while Blizzard has screwed the definition of “community manager”
