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 think it is okay but I don't think it has staying power. The f2p rewards are practically non existent and locked behind a heck of a grind at that. Putting a new character with unique abilities behind a large grind is only asking for devs to make them op in the future and nerf later, it happens in practically every f2p game to encourage sells. new f2p players are going to get killed by heroes they dont have and likely mostly quit while a few might pay up, I don't see it having a huge population that sticks around, but probably will be okay - just not massive numbers
