I love how we're just sold the opportunity to pay money to play a game, maybe, someday, under certain circumstances, anymore /s

Overwatch 2 has been such a disgrace from Day 1

Honestly I would prefer they paywall the pvp and f2p the pve.

I would prefer if they just finished and released the campaign they hvae promised. I don't care about Overwatch but I would have given that a shot.

I wonder what the player numbers are like compared to Overwatch 1? Since it's "free" now I guess they have way more players. So glad I never got super into any of Blizzards games. If one of my favourite game developers was this scummy I'd be so disappointed

If I had to guess, I would say they probably have more kid players now and thus will have more people willing to dump their livelihood into their in game store.
