Lol, you forgot the wrecking ball rework (but tbf, I understand why)

[interrupted_reverie]

im glad people are still finding joy in this game because personally i can barely play 3 game per month before burning out

[CC-nnbs]

I was a tank main in OW1. Playing tank in OW2 still feels terrible, i never finish my placements anymore

[avatarofdeath]

funny, this was the year I stopped playing cause I got tired of pretending there was any magic left in the game

"The problem is two years later the only new PvE content is illari's pylon" Jesus so good XDDD

Regarding what you said at the end, an Overwatch animated show could be incredible (*if done well and not just made as a cash grab).

Imagine the best shorts with a half-decent story arc. We would eat that shit up as OW slaves and there's massive potential for them to make so many new fans.

I remember when they showed off weapon inspect in the original trailer and now it seems like it will be locked off to specific mythic skins.

I personally would love if you completed the battlepass, COMPLETELY even the last bits with the little titles and all that, you get the next battle pass free.

No matter how flawed and hated a franchise is I always find a way to enjoy it because of how cool and charismatic the characters are and Overwatch is a perfect example of this.

6V6 will be so much better. I miss the off-tank role.
I used to play all 3 roles consistently in OW1, but when it went to 5v5, i stopped. I'm so bad on tank now that I apologize after each match when doing my tank placements.

[PyroManiacOW]

Fact: Overwatch has it's problems but it's a SOLID AF game. Not as nearly as bad as some players and haters paint it out to be.

i pretty much agree with yeatle. the game is fun and IMO it's been fun basically the whole time. the only time i really stop playing OW is when i have a backlog of singleplayer games that suck up all my time instead. the worst period of OW for me was the year before they added role lock where every match was a standoff on who would be forced to play tank or support so the rest of the team can have fun.

i never cared about pve or about cosmetics at all, so it's been pretty much smooth sailing. i do genuinely miss playing off tank zarya and off tank dva, but support got more fun so i play that instead. i think most of the people clamoring about 6v6 need to learn the idiom "you can't go home again". 6v6 isn't a panacea, it solves some problems and creates others, but no matter what, you will never get back the 'magic' you believe was lost when the game went to 5v5. it's impossible. you are not the same person and it is not the same game.

[DraxxDTDK]

Everyone keep thinking they will fix every single hero with the patch note but making the game 100% balance is litteraly impossible

[xIronwafflexx]

If you cut top 500 to top 100, then about 30-40 people will have all of the top 100 spots.

Haven't played since Mauga release and no idea why YT recommended your video.
But from the Steam numbers OW2 has gotten around 30% growth in players since Venture release. And a smaller bump for Juno. So giving access to the Heroes for all players was a big win for the player count it seems.
Good for them. Not that I'll ever gonna play again, but good for you guys still loving it too.

[Accuaro]

After watching Spilo talk about 6v6 I don't think this game is salvageable outside of cosmetics which Blizzard is heavily leaning on. Playing tank is the litmus test on the mental capacity of how much pain one can take.

[Tantemify]

i mean for a game that is still active for the past 8 years, it is a very big feat already. some dont even last for 2 or 3 weeks . nothing lasts forever. OW is already a very succesful game in its own right.

[khelek]

This is an awesome video. Also nice to hear someone be positive for a change in these videos.

7:20 I dont know what you smoked, but the Season 9 Health changes are the worst the game has ever seen

Many Heroes like Genji, Hanzo, Mei, Junk, etc. lost their Identity and cant fullfill their role while Hitscans dominated. Not to mention the Hitbox changes just making the game less skillful which makes it less rewarding to hit good shots.

I think youre way to biased here in seeing OW suceed, trust me i know ive been playing for 8 Years aswell, but aside from 5v5, this was one of the worst changes ever.

I still can’t get over how badly ball was shafted in ow2. It’s so sad. I hate playing ball in 5v5.
