My favorite pvp shooter since Halo 3.
1) I give it an 8.
2) I love the teamwork, the different heroes and mechanics, and the fact that everything after the base game has been free.
People always complain about the toxicity, but to be honest I've experienced far less of it in Overwatch than any other shooter I've played, and I've played a lot of them over the years.
[spoiler]Destiny's community is far more toxic.[/spoiler]
3) Microtransactions, it's just cosmetics and you can grind for what you want, but it's about tempting people out of their money.
Most of the other complaints I've had have been fixed. The other big one would be the lazy events, but I think they're devoting resources for Overwatch 2.
Also, unless things have changed, Overwatch 2 is mostly going to be a PvE update. PvP stuff and new heroes, maps, and what not will still be available for the original game and it will still be supported. I've been a bit out of the loop though so this might be outdated news.

I have received far more hate messages from people playing overwatch. The Destiny forums are worse but just playing pvp in Destiny I've gotten maybe 20 hate messages over the past 6 years. I played overwatch for about 2 years and got berated most games no matter what I did from both my team and opponents. [spoiler]"I have gold healing and damage" me after my team yells at me, for not doing enough, while playing mercy. (My team would die, I'd be the only one left so I'd get more damage than them from just shooting my gun waiting for them to respawn.[/spoiler]

Edited by Arynezeal: 4/17/2020 11:37:18 PMGood for you. I've gotten more hate mail in Magic the Gathering Duels of the Planeswalkers than any other game. Destiny's community is still far more toxic than any other.

I agree with the spoiler. Though I’ve been given the honorary title of “Hacking piece of shit gay ass f*g” by someone in the density community, and I do treasure that title. Honestly, I still don’t know what I did to elicit that reaction.

I’m listing the worst 1. Micro transactions - they really know how to milk you out of your money 2. Community is shit - woke as -blam!-. Elitist twats and shit all over anyone who disagrees or sucks. 3. It has only 2 game modes - I am not joking. It’s a live service game and it only has 2 frigging playable modes and they briefly insert a new playable mode during an event then remove it when it ends. 4. Characters are boring - though their play style are fun and unique, the devs and writers like to flip their sexuality to spice things up but it really doesn’t help. Only thing I enjoyed 1. The porn/fan art is pretty good [spoiler]HAIL HYDRA!!!!!!![/spoiler]

1) The microtransactions are nowhere near as bad as in other games. It's all cosmetic, you can get loot boxes easily in game, and you can get the credits to buy what you want in game aswell. Microtransactions in general are still shit though. 2) Nah, that's just clickbait outrage. 3) Also wrong. Payload, Two Checkpoint, and the Hybrid aswell as Control are the main game modes, then arcade adds a few others like Capture the Flag, Free For All, and Deathmatch, plus event modes and workshop custom games! 4) This is such a non issue. Seriously, most of you people probably never even cared to read the comics or the short stories and are just outraged because other people on the internet told you to be. Like that Soldier thing was a single sentence in a multi page story that was so vague they needed to say on twitter "Yeah soldier had a boyfriend decades ago." There is no way they could have done that in a way that would not have triggered you people.

Teamwork is really fun if done right in shooters, I like the competing feel it gives off. Destiny’s is probably the most toxic community imo. Micro transactions, they are very tempting. Ngl I usually spend some decent cash on looking good, but it all depends on how much I like the game.
