I can no longer play overwatch. The game has been in life support for 2 years now. Activision/blizzard clearly don't care about what the player base want, and in return we get dogshit updates that don't fix anything. The game has no new content for creators and players.#overwatch

@AOC This is actually wild considering the Activision/Blizzard debacle going on right now. Numerous big name Sponsors have been pulled from both of their esports leagues (Overwatch and Call of Duty) this includes Coke, T-Mobile, US Army, and countless others... Fox might be in trouble

@ChristinaTasty @IGN To quote another big brained individual in this comment section how is overwatch specifically the problem?? I would love to know because to me it seems like y’all like grouping overwatch in with the rest of the IP’s dramas and issues

@RosalynnCH If it’s the start it’s a load in issue, whether cpu/storage/internet etc. only time I’ve had an issue Windows was downloading an update in the background for me that royally ****** my frame rate. Overwatch does this for me but I haven’t had an issue with split yet.

@Stylosa saw it in your video so... McCree name issue solution: Introduce a character arc for the character before the deadlock gang and state that he had a different name and changed it to escape his previous life #Overwatch

Overwatch folk?: I’m a mercy main (snore) with over 11k average healing per 10min, but my damage boost is a woeful ~200. Idk how the heck to keep everyone alive and also fix this 😩

Overwatch seems to be causing a bit of a problem? I'm still attempting to make it work, but I'm not too sure if it will. Worst case, we will find something else to work with.

@IGN *Fix: A minority that does NOT PLAY Overwatch wants to change the name of a character that uses a generic name for a cowboy.

@tron11323900000 @ChristinaTasty @IGN Yknow unless I haven’t seen anything that specifically says Overwatch has been the problem because to me it seems y’all like to group in Overwatch as a whole to the drama pertaining to other ips

@IGN The problem with refusing to buy Overwatch to hurt Blizzards leadership is that you’ll also hurt the developers you are trying to defend. Not buying the game could in fact cause its employees to lose their jobs. If a game fails, the company loses money, cut backs will be made.

Hey @Activision you are a garbage company. Fix your ******* OverWatch servers, get your customer service under ******* control, and stop making ****** decisions when it comes to classic games and multiplayer. **** you and have a nice day

@towelthetank @Wowhead Overwatch situation: sponsors leaving PR situation: On fire Office situation: Women get treated better at the playboy mansion than at blizz offices WoW situation: bleeding players Blizz: Let's make this fix from the feedback we've been getting since Beta! Not impressed.

@Aemon_Oni I guess that's my main problem. I don't really care about Overwatch, MK, Nintendo Anime and other stuff. And I can't work on something that doesn't appeal to me. So if people wanna watch only their favorite characters being pounded, then maybe I should quit altogether

@IGN people are complaining about a non issue its a name yes its the name of a bad person but its a fictional character that has this name it wont do ANYTHING if blizzard changes it all it does is increase the work the devs need to do for overwatch 2 by changing a ton of lines

@IGN This sounds like "several students demand school to stop teaching about WWII because it makes them feel bad" levels of not wanting to think about the real issues. 😐 Is Overwatch more important than the victims in all of this to these fans?

@ChristinaTasty If you're not buying **** from them then you aren't implicitly supporting them and their practices. I could see canceling a WoW subscription since that is paying them directly. In Overwatch I don't buy ****. I haven't for years, therefore I see no issue playing it.

@IGN I think overwatch has bigger issues to fix than a ******* fictional character's name

@itmefran @BlizzardCSEU_EN I used to have the same issue. Follow these steps: uninstall overwatch, go to the %appdata% folder and delete the overwatch folder. After that, go on Riot Games' website and download Valorant. Load up, log in and you're good to go. Have fun!
