Overwatch 2 Was A Mistake

Complete with a short buzzcut, many players are still able to get a glimpse of her red hair when she's human. In this state, she's known as the owner of Megaton's Craterside Supply and will help players get anything they need. A deeper dive into her character will reveal a greatly intelligent person with a dream to write a survival guide to help unsuspecting travelers stay al

Compare that situation to that of games like Apex Legends . As someone who hopped over from Overwatch to Apex, I can say that it feels much more alive at the moment thanks to seasonal updates. The maps are always being altered and updated ( and sometimes there's a new one! ), there's a new character every season, and there's plenty of new events, modes, and rewa

Mauga is a big target, and his abilities may help somewhat in battle, but players will want a healer at their side to make sure they stay alive. His ability to take reduced damage and heal through dealing damage is fairly average, and his Cage Fight ability to trap himself with enemies isn't the most efficient other than for a sacrifice play or to create further aggressive carnage that can easily distract opponents long enough to secure objecti

Given Blizzard's history with level editors in the past, it would make sense to see some sort of level creation tool for Overwatch 2 introduced. Of course, it'd be tough to flesh out the details with all of the assets and intricacies involved in building a functional 3D space, but surely some sort of basic toolkit to create smaller battle arenas could be implemen

The latest tank addition to Overwatch 2 , Hazard is a large and potent force of nature, with his (relative) mobility combined with his sheer power from close and medium range. His mechanics and slew of abilities give him a vibe that's something of a Winston and Doomfist fusion, with a bit of Sigma, Genji and even Mei (Jagged Wall being the key similari

Hell, Blizzard cultural representation should already know this. World Of Warcraft has been going for over 16 years! 16 years without a sequel! Just updates and expansions. It's a business model Blizzard is already familiar with yet it still went along with making Overwatch 2. A decision I can only assume was influenced by the malevolent ruler of Activision, Bobby Kot

Veteran Overwatch players might remember a game unrecognizable to the current build. Players could stack the same character across an entire team. Bastion’s turret mode also gave him a shield. Most infamously, Mercy’s ultimate let her resurrect as many as five teammates with a flick of her wr

As we all know, Blizzard is owned by Activision. And if there's any company that loves putting out sequel after sequel, it's Activision. We still get a new Call Of Duty game every single year, which is insane since that means we're going on 16 years straight of COD sequels. But that method hasn't worked for other games. This strategy almost killed the Tony Hawk franchise and did kill the Guitar Hero franchise. In fact, it pretty much snuffed out the entire plastic instrument sub-genre of rhythm ga

But Blizzard left out a few enemy types seen in a concept art image shown during the video. Most notable were the humanoid, Omnic grunt-looking bots with wings and red armor and an enormous, gorilla-like bot hulking over the rest in the lineup. These enemies may not appear in the final build, but it’s interesting to wonder what they might

The game's initial trailer also revealed the inclusion of customizable abilities, which will likely include tweakable visual flair for hero Ultimates. This array of personalized features should make for an even more chaotic and dynamic experience in O

Her pump-action shotgun deals great damage, especially when aiming for the head, and the long-range Jagged Blade can be thrown and imbed into enemies for a nice assortment of damage. Junker Queen compliments the team well, as long as she stays with them, and she can easily bully other characters, especially if she bans healing thanks to her Rampage ultim

Blizzcon is scheduled for February 19-20 and an update on Overwatch 2 has been promised . I really hope Jeff Kaplan and company have some good news to share, because they're going to need to give lapsed fans like myself a reason to consider coming b

With over 30 playable heroes already, there is no shortage of unique characters to choose from when readying for a fight. Still, it's always fun to try out a brand new hero, who brings their own dynamic and playstyle. Overwatch 2 will kick things off with Sojourn, who will apparently be the first Canadian hero in the g

Of course, we had awesome women like Mei and Zarya amongst the cast, but there was D.Va, Tracer, and Widowmaker strutting their stuff alongside them. Overwatch was a real sticking point in our development as horny gamers, and a willingness to embrace sexuality in our games and view it as something to no longer be ashamed of. Overwatch was a stepping stone to this point, but a stone covered with the slippery moss of the mid ‘10s Whedonised feminism, where the best way to make a female character strong was to make her sexy too. Putting aside the smut, I was invested in some of the game’s queer ships for years, whether it be through tasteful fanart or brilliantly written fiction that understood these characters better than Blizzard ever will. Pharmercy till I die. You know Overwatch was something special because it made you care, and the relative indifference from Blizzard in the years since is almost upsetting.
