In my defense,

[ploobis]

I never make posts on here but I'm absolutely flabbergasted and gobsmacked by overwatch rn. I bought overwatch in 2016 for $60, and then $40 when overwatch 2 came out so I could play junkerqueen in the beta (not worth btw). I bought it for $40 knowing PVE wouldn't be out at launch but honestly I was fine with that, I just expected it by like next spring which is what they were saying on the roadmaps. Overwatch is old. Like old old at this point. Overwatch narrowly could have been made for the Xbox 360. A multibillion dollar company with 6 going on 7 years of experience with this game should know how many people you need on a dev team to ship the content they promised. But they've been BARELY able to keep up with the base multiplayer. Back in December roadhog was oppressively strong and they promised a hog rework soon™. Rework implies some pretty strong stuff right, like torb rework and symmetra rework were pretty huge. Instead what we got was a bandaid and a sorry excuse, which even then, the "rework" we got was delayed and delayed. This was a plague for months before the dev team did anything to remedy this. This is just one example of MANY broken and out of touch actions by the devs. A large chunk of the content they've promised has been delayed, buggy, a let down, and more. But for the last couple months I've been justifying it by thinking "oh it's fine though bc I'd imagine a lot of the team is working full time on the PVE. The PVE that's been showcased honestly looked great. Like I'd happily pay $40 to play that game. They had cool skill trees, mastery, neat concepts and progression very unique to ow2. Instead the devs released a game mode of an old 2CP map revamped to look like starwars (with really dope skins and cool art I'll give them that) and cancelled PVE as we know it. It's just so frustrating playing this game with absolutely no hope for content. Lifeweaver is a complete joke, the new shop took one of my favorite systems for earning items and cool bonuses and turned into one of the most prohibitively expensive jokes of a store I've ever seen.

Y’all really do not need to keep defending Blizzard lmao

okay so yeah, technically PVE isn’t actually cancelled. They’re still going to release the occasional chunk of story related content like the Archives event.

But that’s not what we were promised. That’s not what people were excited about.

Overwatch 2 was metaphorically sold on a fully fleshed out story mode with replayable missions and an engaging progression system. That’s what justified the game being Overwatch 2.

To act like people aren’t justifiably upset about this is asinine. The multibillion dollar company does not need you to defend it.

I'm having a fucking field day over here

So, let me see if I've got this straight.

When Overwatch 2 launched last October, it was framed by Blizzard as a PvP-only early access preview of a game which would eventually include a substantial PvE campaign, to be added in a later patch.

Today, Blizzard's representatives admitted not only that the PvE campaign mode has been scrapped, but that the internal decision to do so was made in late 2021 – meaning they'd been knowingly lying about the game's planned feature set for nearly a year at the time of the October 2022 early access launch.

Is that about the size of it?

2019: we're slowing down on Overwatch 1 to bring some awesome PvE content

2020: oops, covid, but all that awesome PvE stuff is internally playable right now!

2021: aaaaany day now, but don't worry, the PvE stuff is great!

2022: we're releasing Overwatch 2 now! the PvE will come later so we can make it awesome :D

2023: PvE has been cancelled

With the whole new support hero coming to Overwatch 2 and him being pansexual reveals a lot how biggoted people just swarm like mosquitos. I would say the amount of panphobia I have seen in the comments saying it's "just bi" is astounding. I would sometimes argue that people disrespect and dismiss pansexuals more than bisexuals these days because no one wants to get educated on the difference and we are just "bis with extra steps"...
