The devs are the worst devs across all games, never listen to the community, making the game worse every patch. Only thing that keeps players around is loyalty and a lack of competitive games with a fast pace to match. If any other team took the chance to make a direct competitor, all they would have to do is listen to their community and the overwatch community would join with them. Every player of Overwatch 2 is simply addicted to how the game once was, clinging onto home that one day blizzard will do something great with the game. Then they add more characters with greater power levels in all categories of power. Furthermore they never patch the gmae and promised to do more "frequent" patches to ensure that each season would have an identity. They only held true in the sense that we are now seeing a patch that might not even be a balance patch after 2- 3 months. Meanwhile the whole game is dominated by complaints for how bad the balance is and then when it finally comes time, the balance without a shred of realism or sense of anything that has been making this game terrible. Because of this, the game has been on a consistent spiral to becoming one of the worst games ever made, with the worst devs ever seen. It has been years of this same process, with greater neglect and even worse gameplay. Ive been addicted since the beginning and i promise thjat this game should only ever be a casual game. It was never meant to be competitive, and any other dev team could make a competitor to this game style even while sleeping. Someone please make a good game that can take me away from this, i feel like a prisoner to this game and Ive had it with BR games. Please send help or boycot this game, for your own good unless you start hearing lots of amazing things about it after a year or so, DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME. IT IS TORTURE AND IT HURTS TO PLAY AFTER THIS GAME IS SO RUINED, PLAY AT YOUR OWN RISK, THIS GAME IS A DERTRIMENT TO YOUR MENTAL HEALTH AND SHOULD BE LEFT TO ROT UNLESS BLIZZARD PICKS UP THEIR GAME 20 FOLD.
I'm a Grandmaster dps player btw, after 7 years I can confirm that this game is not worth any of your time, they literally throw at a dart board for their balancing. This game is and will always be genuinely dead, as much as I want it to recover, Blizzard Entertainment is not capable of making sound decisions with the development and/or upkeep of this game. They aren't capable of it, and I wish they would sell the game to someone else, then maybe we will actually have competent devs supporting the game.
