      @@entrophycorp4ig8w The thing that's "wrong" with them is something plaguing the whole industry, i'll choose the lesser evil in this case. Especially when a good part of modern AAA games are so below average in quality they can only offer you a miserable experience since not only they milk everything but most western devs are also bankrupt in creativity. Gacha games use predatory tactis for revenue while also giving you a rich pool of creativity in terms of art, music and stories.

Keep sucking. never *had* too but if you wanted to play it day one (like it was before when you dropped $50 on the game and like it is now as you mentioned invalidating your point... weird) you did! Your comparison to another game is bullshit. But if you want a TRUE comparison; you know what is great about those 100+ league champions in different roles? Once you lock in that is it! that is the character your playing! You are not expected to know how to play them all, just the ones you lock in or more presumable the current counter! Meanwhile, OW switching champions *MIDGAME* is a mechanic and if you didn't have the new character day one you just fucked yourself because they are designed in a way for you to WANT THEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. And the FUNNIEST PART? The battlepass! That fun mechanic they literally give you twitch drops TO SKIP LEVELS. So your arguing about shit they know is shit that was shit and still is shit because they let you skip it. 👍

      The internal problems where bad, but it was the icing to the cake. They made the game worse by doing nothing for long periods of time, did you forget the GOATS meta? A combination of both doing nothing and catering to the 1% killed Overwatch 1, Overwatch 2 was killed by going P2W and none of the promises like PvE Story and no progression from a time where you could have all of it without spending. They gave players an ultimatum and only the blind couldn't see what they had happened, alongside their history of refusing to change for the betterment of the game.
