4. Honestly, it was always Overwatch (1). As often as not I felt bad about myself after playing for a while, but I kept coming back. OW2 is not that - it's past guilt into "we've had past issues, but now you're fully toxic and I'm sorry but I can't have you in my life anymore"

I feel my anger issues worsening in life, so naturally I gotta start playing overwatch and main healer to feel even more hatred and rage

@OrdnajelaSomar @excryptor @thegameawards But that IS the problem. U4's have nothing unique to offer beyond the good story. And the gameplay itself have almost no afect on the story. So as far as gameplay goes I think Overwatch deserved more, for its gameplay, polishment and support.

@redwingbuff @TejaFX @_Lunadria_ Where am I promoting valorant? I don’t play it either. And yes i know the issue w blizzard, my view’s that they removed the people who were part of the issue & the overwatch team weren’t involved with that. End of the day enjoy what u want but accept valid criticism of them

@SuperButterBuns Does overwatch 2 still have the same social problems as 1? Do people still do the whole "I have gold heals as Soldier, he's a healer" thing or instalocking hanzo?

@Blizzard_Ent fix ranked on overwatch 2 already! Also just some salt, but heck your rank decay nonsense! I was gold 4 and now cause rank is based on wins not how good you play (double edged, that) but by how often you win or lose, I'm hard stuck silver 1

Ball isn't bad in Overwatch 2, you just have to be really good at him to get decent value (and be willing to switch when you can't). The problem is too many people *think* they are really good at ball

Overwatch 2, my experience.. Tried on day one and it wasn't working. Just tried again now and it's asked for 3 or 4 different hoops to jump through just to sign in. Page 1 do this, page 2 go here, page 3 sign in again. Deleted. ****, ******** off @Blizzard_Ent

@Claylex1 Been thinking on reinstalling TF2, problem is that really I feel fed up with that game, it became Payday 2 where you need items to be bought or dropped on to have loadouts, im OK with overwatch and Valorant skins. You can dm me your discord and steam, need new allies/friends!

@PlayOverwatch Seen "The best gift is spending" and was like overwatch is finally admitting the money is a problem?

This is also the last time I try to even play overwatch on stream until I can update my setup or they fix this bullshit cause I just can't ******* deal with it anymore. It happened 5 times today, every game I tried to play it happened, I want to know why it only happens on it

What if @PlayOverwatch made a feature where everyday you login you get a certain amount of “overwatch coins” and that would help players get more skins instead of wasting so much money for like one skin. #Overwatch

@Luminalmvm @TejaFX @_Lunadria_ Weird how you ignore Activision and Blizzard then, do some research if you believe the people that are the issue are gone, but you wont cuz you dont wanna quit Overwatch

Anyone else having connection issues with Overwatch servers or am I the only ************ with 400-800ms latency Cause only this ******* week have I been having these issues

There is no possible way to balance current overwatch, blizzard needs to release as many heroes as fast as possible. I dont care how op they are, the sooner we get more heroes the sooner they can add a ban system which would fix so many of the games problems.

@OW_SVB @EskayOW For competitive overwatch for sure I agree 100% franchising stinks. But also ow hasn’t supported tier2 or below scene which is a major issue

@MukiHyena I played Halo infinite (This would apply to any Halo anyway) after Overwatch and found that my aim improved with snipers and everything else I now sucked at using. I couldn't use snipers before. And I keep trying to use positioning in Halo, as if that ******* matters. I'm Broken.

@VVaypoint As long as gameplay isn't locked behind Lootboxes I'm so ok with them. Overwatch 2 has this problem - no way to earn skins whereas the first let you get them through the boxes

(@satanxty) reported
and not on any other ******* game I play, I can play anything else just fine but for some reason Overwatch will ******* disconnect me from the internet randomly and several times in a ******* row whenever I play it. The only time it didn't was last night so ******* fix your game

@antwon_exe @PlayOverwatch There’s actually a fix for this! Open overwatch, press play>training>practice range. That should fix it!

Man. Never seen Overwatch been more of an L in my entire life than the current state it's in. Fix the game and maybe it would be more fun for everyone.

@Surefour Overwatch in general has a content problem. Heroes releases too infrequently, skins are priced too high with skins not releasing frequently enough, shop is barren, map rotations being a thing, reusing Holiday events ALREADY. How do some heroes still only have 3 Highlight intros

@PlayOverwatch Unsure how true this is but according to a friend Starlink will send a TCP reset / RST request after a disconnect is longer than 2 seconds, which most games correctly interprupt in different ways & Overwatch it seems takes it as a "Kick to the login screen"
