@OrtizYohnny @The888J @bdsams Overwatch was never good, i feel like a broken record saying that game awards are made by people that don't play games for fun and it shows... A lot

Patch for Overwatch should be rolling out that fixes the exploit allowing people to target and crash streamer's games.

@ItsFuzzyPickles Universal could buy Crash and Spyro - IMO they should go wherever together. Overwatch feels like it should be an independently company that buys the IP.

Thanks @Blizzard_Ent for steal my money. I gift my friends on credit card paying Overwatch and wait for four hours and nothing ... What's the problem with your plataform?

@Neopabo2 have they? i think the main reason people stop playing activision games like cod, overwatch and wow is because they are bored of them not because they give af about social issues.

@Nohbdy2020 @JonComms They layed off over 800 people during a year of record profit and yet you weirdo shills keep making this argument. Sorry you wanted to play overwatch 2 and still pretend you cared about the issue.

@The_LastFudo Agreed, I’m not going to dispute the bias angle, people are inherently biased quite often. The no 2d rule is bunk though, there’s just a bias towards single player, story driven games that only Overwatch had broken through to win GotY from TGA.

@KuV3dR @Halo @Twitch My issue isn't the hip fire thing, I play games like overwatch that are mostly hip fire as well, I'm talking about the actual movement of your aim when you move the thumbstick feels veylry clunky. It doesn't even feel like old halos

@RaneMstSage @VrynThorn They enjoy to work on wow, overwatch etc. I don't get why they should leave? They are trying to make a change within the company. Leaving won't solve anything. The problem will still be here. New employees will join. And nothing would be solved.

..but the truth is:
(@butthetruthis1) reported
@YongYea Sounds like the right time to release some gameplay from the Diablo and Overwatch sequels. They won't address the problems, but they'll try to distract from it and historically a lot of gamers will look the other way

For everyone hoping they'll fix overwatch, it's not happening. If you haven't realized @Blizzard_Ent doesn't even care about its own employees let alone what the pc and console players of their games want fixed.

@weeabob You don’t get it... it’s really important that he plays overwatch and spends money on skins that show tracers feet without feeling like he’s part of the problem

@Magolor44 @Zingus5 I mean... Overwatch is NOT a bad game. I genuinely would say it is overall a really good game. It has issues (as all games do) but it itself isn't even remotely close to bad.

@Kaijammo My streams always did this when playing overwatch. Tried 100 different things and could never fix it, adjusted settings in game and on stream, nothing worked. Never happened for any other game :(

@SkillUpYT Why take care of the problem when you can change the name of another Overwatch character. Slap that bandaid over that gaping wound and call it a fix.

Since they delayed Overwatch 2 to til 2023, that won't be a problem, unless they keep him for that long. Though a paid Destiny 2 update might throw a money wrench in. I'll cross that bridge when I get there. Right now, it's obvious Kotek needs to get the boot.

@MidasGoldenWife From what I heard the employee who is named after Mcree is the one who had the harassment issue. Basically caused the harassments. So the team decided to change the overwatch hero’s name because of this.

@RickKackis It's clearly the name of an Overwatch character. Change the name, slap that bandaid over that fatal wound and call it a problem solved!

@JoshBorak @Dekkysaurus There were a few things around that time, i think the 'Ellie' esports issue as well for overwatch.

(@channystreams) reported
@Unyshek Thanks for this. Another thing I’ve noticed is that mouse input feels a tad wonky. It’s potentially due to input lag from borderless window. As a tenured mnk player, overwatch has the gold standard for mouse input and I’d love for this game to feel similarly.

@AceOFSpadesOW Ofc! I gotta appreciate the stream you do for all of us! I wanna make sure the Overwatch community gets that support it needs to go through this painful game with so many problems lol. Making content out of thin air

Sell me Activision Blizzard I will not treat anyone bad and I have bold new visions for their franchises (throwing Diablo, Starcraft, COD, and Overwatch in a trash can and just making another Crash Bandicoot)

@MatttGFX I’ve legitimately stopped buying Overwatch merch and even stopped supporting YouTubers who still play Blizzard games and dear god can this run away train please crash it’s getting worser and worser
