Stop with the bad takes. If they actually worked on anything during the OW1 content drought that didn't just make em a quick buck, we might have gotten a better experience. Someone higher up saw the dwindling player base and went with the cheapest and laziest way to squeeze a couple extra bucks from what's left.
There was so much that could have been done to bring people back, but each time they've either done the literal least, lied, or axed it.
They went 5v5 cause it was the choice that had the least work required to get people to tank, but now if your tank is bad you're pretty much going to lose. They could have kept 6v6 and reworked all the tanks kits.
Blizzard has made every choice so far that says Overwatch is going to be sunset. It's sad to see something as great as OW1 turn into what it is now. Especially when there's a lot that can be done to fix it the right way.
Makes me wonder how the current dev team feels about everything that's happened and how they really feel about the decisions being made currently. Cause Invasion is pretty mediocre so far.
