MODERATORS
just play TF2 or marvel rivals at this point
TF2 is a different game and Rivals is definitely not as good in areas that matter like gameplay and maps
"Jetpack cat"? Really? That desperate, huh?
why does this game ask for my phone no. to play?
Because it's free to play and it's supposed to be a deterrent to smurfing.
man, games are taken so seriously these days that they resort to smurfing.
It's been that way for a long time. The term smurfing, I think, originated with Warcraft II.
The games I played didn't have ranking. It was better.
It was an a****** dude that no one wanted to play against in high-ranking ladders because everyone knew his name because he was a f****** a******.
So he made two accounts. One called Papa Smurf and the other smurfette. Then proceeded to s*** on low-ranking. Players made fun of them and was he general a****** till everyone learned those names and started avoiding him as well.
Smurfing since its inception has been fundamentally something only assholes do where this whole purpose of being an a******.
Ranked systems only work if everybody only has one account. It's also why most games restrict you to only one account for ranked purposes.
Activision does that with all their games now.
It’s the reason I won’t buy a new COD game.
It is kinda hard to call yourself a sequel when you're basically the same exact game and literally the original game doesn't even exist anymore.
I do not like that I paid for Overwatch 1 but now only have Overwatch 2.
The developers who made Terraria contemplated on a Terraria 2 and they were faced with the decision; continue developing Terraria as is or just try to make a Terraria 2.
Seems like they've instinctively chosen to keep supporting Terraria as is, because what can you do with a Terraria 2? When so many ideas and creations have been poured into one game? It sounded like Terraria 2 was going to be the same.
Well... They did try to make Terraria Otherworld, but that game got cancelled and they fell back into supporting Terraria because it keeps printing money.

This is salt in the wound for my friends who miss launch Overwatch.
I'm right there with you. I miss having 6v6 with like half the characters they have now (so I can actually learn them all), with Jeff Kaplan keeping me excited to play. What a fun time that was.
I'm right there with you. I think the hamster was the last new hero I played with.
Those were good times.
Now they're adding a cat with a jetpack, which I would love if they have her a better name than Jetpack Cat.

I gave up on this game a long time ago. It took me longer than it should've to realize that "old Blizzard" is gone and not coming back.
I took a long break from overwatch after the release of overwatch 2, but they have been made some big changes that have brought me back.
No more heros locked behind battle passes, free loot boxes, 6v6, great performance, sound design and the new perk system is nice. The game is more balanced than it ever was as overwatch 1, even it it's still not perfect.
I don't agree with everything, paid skins are absurdly expensive, and heros do seem designed to sell skins, but that's really not new either.
Is Nanoblade genji back yet? That's the reason I left for the final time

Still dead to me.
Overwatch is close to being a decade old btw.
It’s so unfortunate what they did to Overwatch, wonder how Jeff Kaplan and the original Team feels about all that.
IIRC he just washed his hands and moved on from it, which probably was the right call given the Acti-Blizz merger and Microsoft buyout.
“Microslop”
As great as Jeff was, he's the one that did all the stuff to Overwatch.
As far as I've heard/read he was never really interested in making a PVP game, he wanted to make Titan, the MMO. Then he got another chance with OW2 and the PVE mode, and even got an offer to make a separate dev team that would focus on PVP, so he could put his all into PVE, but declined, so the game was left to die (even though it never really died). Then PVE in OW2 was a bust again and he left.
Oh, I have never heard of that. Also forgot that he was still around when OW2 launched. Still believe it sucks big time to see a project go down this route especially after being such a big success. It might not be dead, but it definitely is just a shell of its past.
I think I actually took psychic damage reading that. Just... why.
There used to be an r/EmreMains when the name first appeared in lore. That must have been almost 5 years ago, and now they've finally released the hero. I don't know what they expected, but I'd figure that almost everyone who was there previously has moved on, I certainly have.
I laughed out loud at Overwatch x Hello Kitty and Friends.
No thanks. I have 1000 hours in OW, but I've moved on.
