What's you opinion of Overwatch?

Curious to see what the destiny/bungie community thinks about this game. I got it used recently and I'm not too crazy about it. It just seems like the gameplay is too casual, definitely not a high intensity game. I haven't really played it enough to say anymore than that. what's your thoughts on Overwatch?

  • After a while it just gets stale. Even though it could mess with the balance, having D1 style skill trees or MKX style variations could spice up gameplay a lot. Imagine options for a damage boosting Trancendance for Zenyatta, or a self-rez ultimate for Reaper. Anything to add variance. It also has Vanilla D1 syndrome where a majority of the story/lore is found outside of the game itself. Whether it be a campaign or even simple one-off missions any single player options would be great. Also wish they could keep the PvE stuff like Junkenstein’s or Uprising. Zero reason to take that stuff away. The way you progress in the game is also terrible & even predatory. Nothing feels quite as accomplishing as lucking out & getting a random skin from a loot box, knowing that someone could have gotten that same item instantly or payed up for it. The seasonal loot boxes are even more greedy & cynical. Instead lock them behind challenges. For example, 1,000 kills as Tracer to get a legendary skin. For the seasonal items, lock them behind event specific goals. While Overwatch was fine at first, it just simply hasn’t evolved or made any meaningful changes & has instead doubled down on it’s worst aspects. How this game got GOTY awards is beyond me.
