Complete waste of time and money. Ow2 is just the overwatch free to play update, nothing more.

I was really looking forward to PvE. It was the only reason I even bothered with the PS5 version of the game. I know it's a free game, but this is like false advertisement 101. Tell people that there's something great coming if they visit your store, but it isn't actually real.

[No longer here]

Damn Blizzard I thought you couldn't do worse but here we are lol

Blizzard died when Activision bought them. Jeff Kaplan quitting was the first sign OverWatch 2 was going to be a disappointment.

It's a shame what utter dogshit this has turned into, almost makes me retroactively feel ashamed for loving Overwatch originally- but for as god awful as everything around this game has become, they can't take away what it once was, and for me that is one of the very best times I've ever had playing a competitive multiplayer game.

Don’t forget it took one of the most solid and stable games out there and turned it into your average early access bugfest, with MTX as the turdling on top. Nothing more, but certainly something less.

In the same boat as most here. Only reason I ever done the PS5 stack was because of the PVE experience. OW2 is just horrendous compared to the first 'version'. 

 

This on top of the fact they sent a cease and desist to the SM2 developers in the same day really solidified how shit the company is.

Same. I am not a PVP gamer usually but 2016 Overwatch with friends was 2nd only to Halo 3 as my favourite MP experience. Spend almost 100 hours on a backup account playing purely for fun. Sadly, the experience got stale years ago for me and Overwatch "2" has been a complete joke.

Whoa.

This is worthless.
