    Ultimately, I don’t think Overwatch 2 will disappear from the public eye even if MR comes to utterly dominate the hero shooter market, for one singular, succinct reason: a LOT of people are INCREDIBLY interested in Overwatch Porn, and that’s not going to stop anytime soon.

        That’s absolutely correct. You can also choose to play games that don’t suck more dick than the pornos based on them.

        I choose to do both by not playing Overwatch.

        What’s to tell me? That bad games that fall out of prominence tend to be remembered for reasons outside their gameplay or world building? That everyone already knows OW2 will be remembered more for its R34 than its actual gameplay? Or that Blizzard dropped the ball so hilariously terribly that people would literally rather play any other game despite the millions of dollars spent on lore, animations, publicity, and skins design?

          Marvel Rivals has nude mods lol, it apparently tops ow porn. That was my point.

          I wonder how bad ow is because I’ve never seen so many people heartbroken by something , a game at that too. I gave it a try last month. Felt it was a good game but I uninstalled cause I wanted to focus on single player games.

            I only played the OW beta, years ago, but even then I could see a bit of what people are upset about now. Characters are designed around one concept for their whole kit, and anytime people find a way to do MORE with them, Blizzard usually patches them to do LESS. Map design is… questionable at best, and confusing for people who are fresh to the game. The balance of things, even early on, was obviously going to be focused around a competitive ruleset, and that puts a severe damper on things from a casual fun standpoint.

            Moving on to more recent events that I don’t have personal experience with, Blizzard has just repeatedly shit the bed. OW2 was promised with massive PVE expansions and massive balance changes/gameplay tweaks to make the game feel fresh and fun again. Instead, they released several generic coomerbait heroes that didn’t do anything unique, cut the PVE ENTIRELY, which players were super hyped for, “”“rebalanced”“” the game (they went from 6v6 to 5v5), and unloaded a ton of paid cosmetics and battlepass mechanics that nobody asked for or wanted. Then as the dust settled, they started releasing more heroes that broke the game further; Mauga was SO UNBALANCED on release that the only way to beat him… was another Mauga, leading to a near 100% pick rate in matches; I remember hearing Rammatra(I think that’s the name of the robo-centaur?) Was also super busted on release; finally, the seasonal balance changes were usually poorly received.

            So it’s not impossible to see why so many people who’ve spent so much time and money on OW and OW2 are so heartbroken about it, yet so eager to jump ship.

              Insightful, thanks. I played rivals too but it’s hero kits felt even more narrow to me. Also the performance issues so I uninstalled. I used to play valorant a lot in college. It’s known for how much riot nerfs everything to the ground for the esports scene. But the communities on these two games feel like the opposite. Valorant doesn’t even have queue while staying in practice range lol. That’s how stale it is.

              Honesty I trust blizzard more than netease. So, I hope rivals doesnt completely kill ow2 till I finish Witcher 3 again. Cause I liked ow2 as a new player and wanna play it again next break or something.

              And yes mauga is so op, I used to get melted while playing winstom against mauga and bastion XD. I had to switch to mauga too Lolol.
