  • GrandDanz GrandDanz (@GrandDanz) reported

    I will never refuse to play a game. However, reading accounts been going on with Activision Blizzard. I am sicken and mortified. I thought they will fix their company, but as of today. I'm not going to play overwatch or COD anymore. What ******** Blizzard?

  • LordRavenscraft Eric Ravenscraft (@LordRavenscraft) reported

    look I don't want to police people's reactions to the Activision/Blizzard **** but it feels to me weird if your reaction is to rant about some WoW storyline you hated or a balance problem with Overwatch. like, there are bigger issues here, my friend??

  • PepsiIstheName Adria (@PepsiIstheName) reported

    @AskPlayStation I seem to be having problems loging into Overwatch and Paladin's. And I've been told by there game devs it's not a problem on their side. Any idea what's going on or to do?

  • Noah73069835 Slushee (@Noah73069835) reported

    @TheAnaSan @krxlice @HoshizoraOW Not 8 years and why is that an issue there are black females in overwatch they are just not playable if we can complain about not having a black character who is a woman then how dare they not add an Italian in the game or someone from Spain #canceloverwatch

  • Dash_O_Frosties Dash-O-frost💖💛💙 (@Dash_O_Frosties) reported

    @ZearibIn @keitto33 Yh, I can’t safely say it doesn’t happen in the overwatch team. People may come forward, which I hope they do if there is any issues. I hope there isn’t any harassment, I would like to think the overwatch team is more of a safer place considering what the game promotes.

  • ASliceOfFoxloaf neutral good furry (@ASliceOfFoxloaf) reported

    i wonder if the overwatch VAs are under some contract to not say anything bad about blizzard, because i want to believe they're good people and not part of the problem.

  • TI_DarthLaser Robin "Darth Laser" Boss. (@TI_DarthLaser) reported

    Activision Blizzard's behaviour shown in this article has broken me. I've loved Blizzard for years. I've loved WoW, WC3, Diablo, Overwatch, Hearthstone and SC. I'm so done with this... Activision destroy our games, lay off the devs and **** over the community. **** them.

  • birdroid_ Сибәрпанк 2077 (@birdroid_) reported

    also, the whole issue goes to show that the 'sjw agenda' in overwatch and else is but a facade the values of this company

  • IronAidanD IronAidan07 (@IronAidanD) reported

    @tanisthelesbiab They killed the games I like from them so that’ll be easy They converted the studio that made Crash 4 into another ****** COD studio and Overwatch 2 is never coming out so cool

  • Chara70580725 Chara789 (@Chara70580725) reported

    This Activision-Blizzard stuff sucks. On one hand, I wanna play Overwatch 2, since it looks to be fixing a ton of issues I have with the original. On the other, I don't want to give a cent to a company that does that kind of ****. ****

  • LouiePikmin2 LouiePikmin (@LouiePikmin2) reported

    @SpawnWaveMedia I feel bad because I just got that collection of 5 crash games yesterday and I've been playing a ton of overwatch... I might as well play them since I already spent quite a bit of money on them but I'll try to avoid buying from them in the future

  • MixMasterLar Lar (from Lar's Gaming Channel) (@MixMasterLar) reported

    @KahoXN I must confessed I did get Tony Hawk Remake on PS4, and of I uploaded a Crash video without even really thinking about it (had the game for awhile) Past those I think the last Activision game I supported was Overwatch. I don't plan to get back into the habit ever

  • AlvissEdgehart Alviss (@AlvissEdgehart) reported

    @KyleParanormal Definitely likely going to uninstall Overwatch. It's fun but Blizzard doesn't care about the community in it or the many issues it faces. Reporting toxic players usually never comes to fruition either. This whole thing solidified my choice to uninstall the game.

  • TheRileySC SC (@TheRileySC) reported

    No more Overwatch either. You also need to fix your **** @Blizzard_Ent

  • Charzilla__ Charzilla_ (@Charzilla__) reported

    Activision is disgusting. I'm glad I never really supported them. At most I've bought Overwatch, nothing else. I'm dossapointed games/characters like Crash Bandicoot are owned by them. I hope Crash and other game franchises can continue through a different company.

  • frostedcheckers Frost (@frostedcheckers) reported

    After the accusations that came out today, I have no plans of buying any titles currently published by Activision Blizzard. I’ve already purchased my crash and spyro titles so i can’t do much about that, but games like Overwatch I will not ever purchase now

  • slowpuke_ caitlin / puke (@slowpuke_) reported

    im glad the only activision **** ive ever been interested in is spyro, crash bandicoot and tony hawk. because i never have to give them another cent again! emulators baybee! if i see anyone i know buying overwatch 2 or any new cod games i’ll be mean to you.

  • guiltyparti 🌸𝕜𝕒𝕥🌸 (@guiltyparti) reported

    @PlayStation Fix servers pls I want to play overwatch and mald

  • SuzySnoozie Snoozie (@SuzySnoozie) reported

    @LeemerBean Because people are idiots? The only thing ive "bought" from activision recently was black ops cold war for zombies and i didnt even buy it Also you bought crash 4 didnt you Like sometimes you just want a game Remember the hong kong **** and they announced overwatch 2 and poof

  • straightedge109 Tyler Wilson (@straightedge109) reported

    If Ubisoft and Epic are anything to go by, Activision will pay lip service, and everyone will forget about it when Diablo 4 or Overwatch 2 come out.

  • m00nlithalo Tiiiiired | Hiatus (@m00nlithalo) reported

    Remember when Blizzard got in trouble for banning a player for having the audacity to say “Liberate Hong Kong” and then showcased their first Black woman character for Overwatch at Blizzcon right after….

  • DungeonGlitch DungeonGlitch | Matt (he/him) (@DungeonGlitch) reported

    I like to imagine Playstation network crashed because everyone's out here deleting COD and Overwatch. If only. I know people want to support the good employees but we all know what happens when you trust a sh't ton of bad apples to fix themselves.

  • LetsPlayHombre Let's Play Hombre! (On hiatus) (@LetsPlayHombre) reported

    @RhinoShowTV Good take. The problem won't go away if we uninstall overwatch.

  • AngryLokus 78 Days until Metroid Dread (@AngryLokus) reported

    Made my overwatch videos private Might end up deleting them **** overwatch And don't even get overwatch 2 Or any blizzard Activision game Even crash and Spyro They need to ******* rot

  • OhHaiiAlice 🌸Alice🌸 (@OhHaiiAlice) reported

    Now is not the time to discuss why you hate Overwatch when there are bigger issues clearly happening Like seriously what does the games have to do with whats going on ...

  • EkonBarnes well hi (@EkonBarnes) reported

    @onlyanonymity @ChristianColeCS @Sabriality But the issue with the post is they are acting as if the root cause of this issue is the overwatch league/blizzard.

  • Kyle_Schowalker Kyle Schow (@Kyle_Schowalker) reported

    @jasonschreier Was the Overwatch team party of the problem with the bombshell dropped on blizzard this week? Something stinks about Jeff and other high ups leaving

  • BEANSS0328 CC|| BEANSS 0/4💙🌚🌝 (@BEANSS0328) reported

    deleted overwatch and the blizzard launcher today. Unless they can fix the company i will no longer be supporting them. will be uninstalling cold war also

  • ImRyanBlue IAmRyanBlue (@ImRyanBlue) reported

    A side issue I think is important: Anyone that's played LoL, Overwatch, Apex Legends, CoD etc. knows that there are plenty of breeding grounds for toxic gamer men. The issue is systemic, it starts early. It'd be nice if these companies took a stand against it. They won't.

  • Beavsi Oswald (@Beavsi) reported

    @swagtastic666 I was playing Total Mayhem on Overwatch and apparently Winston is insane in that mode so the enemies played as Ball and Mei so they could stall on overtime for 21 minutes And then some enemy who's like level 300 switched to Sombra and got mad at us playing broken characters
