Overwatch 2

Overwatch 2 has come out and it's f2p with a battle pass. If I'm being honest I don't mind the battle pass in overwatch 2 and heck I like the grind except to unlock a hero it gives more of an incentive than just skins. Of course, you can pay for it but that doesn't really matter in the end because it doesn't take long to grind out levels, etc unless you just want the skins.  Also, the battle pass was so much more than those rng loot boxes. What do you guys or girls think of overwatch 2

  • I agree with you. I have never liked the unlock a new character through a paid battle pass. It just incentivizes the devs to make them overpowered or advantageous to lure people to buy them and creates long grinds to unlock them which in turn yields imbalanced gameplay. I am not saying that is the case here because I haven;t played much of it. Overwatch 2 seems to be a reskin or continuation of the first but with heavy monetization. At least it is free to play but they are shutting down the first game which is really lame not giving players a choice if they feel they don't like the progression design of 2. I do not think Overwatch 2 will have the following that 1 did. We will see.
