    • The core gameplay loops aren’t different enough
    • OW2 is basically OW1 with some minor tweaks
    • OW2 is so similar to OW1, that without it, these reviews would be saying that they’re essentially the same game
    • All I’ve said was that people calling OW2 basically enshittified OW1 is not review bombing, because it’s a valid review.
    • Because there are very few differences

    Okay so you clearly agree that OW2 doesn’t deserve to be the lowest rated game on steam, since “there are very few differences”, and you liked OW1.

    I don’t really care what semantic nonsense or mental gymnastics you have to apply to convince yourself that whatever caused it to be ranked so low doesn’t count as review bombing.

      I do agree it doesn’t deserve to be seen as literally the worst game on Steam. I never said otherwise. I hate, hate, HATE the MTX system…but as you said, this doesn’t make it literally the worst game ever. MTX aside the game still works and the core gameplay loop is fun while you’re in a match. Big Rigs: Over The Road Racing this is not.

      Would I hit the Recommend button on Steam? No. The MTX strategy is a deal breaker for me. Whenever I’m not in a match I feel like a fucking product. At that point I’d rather just fire up another shooter because I straight up don’t want to deal with that shit.

      OW2 isn’t a bad game. It is a predatory game. It is debatable which is worse (I consider predatory to be much worse than bad). Being predatory is plenty reason enough for a bad review.
