Me getting into over watch as a traumatized 13 year old: Wow so many cool and powerful characters I wish these were my parents instead!

Me, now a 20-year-old very traumatized adult with actual estrogen in my system: I want to fuck the terrorist robot

the very last potg i got before overwatch 1 died forever, and definitely one of my favorites from the game’s entire lifetime, immortalized on my hard drive under the filename ‘balls disaster’

I'm working on finding a dps that works for me. Had my tank and other dps tell me to "uninstall the game" because I had 1.6k damage which made me 'worthless' apparently. Even went as far as to say "gg to everyone except mei"

Bro. It's unranked. I'm practicing my worst role. Why are you such a dick?

Then, in my next round, I had wholesome interactions with a kiri and an echo as sombra, so all is well. But god. I knew it was gonna be a bad round when I was backfill and no one said hello.

So, not to make too much of this blog about particular products (reminder: Fuck Blizzard, change in management isn't magic) with the pending release of Overwatch 2... basically a relaunch over Overwatch with a different (presumably as predatory) pricing model, they've announced a new character: Junker Queen [intro here]

It's a great example of how sincere Blizzard's alleged attempts to engineer metric diversity in their products.

Seriously this seems to be their default for "we need to prove we're not shitty! Release a new diversity character!"

Now, glossing over those details... her overall appearance is kind of familiar... in more ways than one...

...and that they seems to be trying to rip off Borderlands vibe...

...and of course a dash of Mad Max: Fury Road.

And if you were curious if Overwatch 2 was going to be any less profit driven and predatory, the answer is no, definitely not.

OW2 PVE has been axed completely, huh...

*sigh

I can't say I didn't see it coming to some extent, buuuut I still, perhaps foolishly, was holding onto hope that we'd get something. Nothing too grand, but still something. Cuz otherwise, 7 years of world building would be down the fucking drain.

Ha, ha, haaaa...

Honestly, live service games are the single worst possible medium to tell stories that exists. Fictional stories need an ending to be effective, but live service games want to run into perpetuality for that sweet sweet cash flow. If OW got a proper ending, how would Blizz keep shoving in new heroes? They would all have to be disconnected from the Talon/OW/Null Sector alignments because, well, where were those people when shit was going down? Yes, they could keep on making characters that are generally not connected to the main plot like Lifeweaver and Illari, people that just kind of exist in the world, but with a finished story they'd feel tacked on. Purposeless. And at that point what would keep lore and world building enthusiasts interested? All those casuals buying the precious virtual cosmetics? Gameplay, sure, but you cannot tell me all of them are playing the video game purely for the gameplay.

So while I can understand the reasoning behind the cancellation (as fucking shitty as capitalism is), and as inevitable as it was, it's still terrible after all of the teasing.
