tf2 is a chore to play, after all these years

overwatch will not be as popular as tf2, that's obvious, but surely it is way more fun and entertaining than just you typical tf2 server, which is just ultra-cosmetics'd underaged running around spamming conga or memes
seriously, tf2 over the years has become a race to who is more memey than the others

$40 is too much for a game that randomly gives you skins for characters you hate to play, Voice lines for characters you will never play, Static colors for skins and recolors of the same skin to add quantity.

All they have to do was have unique skins and allow you to change the color of them. if they want to keep the unlock skins have it actually involve playing the character. It doesn't make sense that playing Soldier 76 is unlocking non Soldier 76 stuff with their shitty loot box.

They have a free-2-play system in a buy-2-play game it doesn't make any sense.

It depends on whether the extra complexity gives any benefits (which can be as little as giving one of the game's mechanics its own identity: compare quake 1's strafing, quake 3's strafing, ut's dodging to modern shooters which all have the exact same sprint system, it's really sad how boring modern movement mechanics are.)

I agree its a broken system but to say a game isn't worth its money when all the content that matters is free and the cosmetic stuff is gotten from playing the game is silly. I don't really know how to fix it though because idk about you but I can sometimes rotate through like 4 characters in a single match, and the play a different set on a different round. Don't know how the game would account for that kind of class switching.

tf2 and overwatch both kind of suck. class based games always seem to have balance problems that the fans go along with by saying "well you can switch classes".

overwatch and tf2 both feel gimmicky in that they try to get you hooked on the game with cosmetics, the art style, characters, etc.

the gameplay isn't as important.

TFC was long abandoned before TF2 even got released. Your comparison is literal autism.
>>
The easier game has always been popular see:

Halo as opposed to Quake
League as opposed to Dota.
Street Fighter as opposed to Tekken.
Call of Duty as opposed to Battlefield.

This is no different, you want a low skill floor+low skill ceiling so you keep everyone on an even field. This is how video games are made now so they can get popular. Also you have blizzard behind balancing so you know its going to be brain dead and homogenized
>>
>>336928472
>TFC
>high skill

The game has unbalanced classes (pyro's ONLY viable way to kill is his unique grenade, sniper can kill pretty much anybody by just using bodyshots) and there's barely any team work. Scout and Medic are literally the only classes that require skill in that game, the other ones are the same as the TF2 counterparts, but with bunnyhop.

Yeah, TF2 is more casual than TFC, but overwatch is a new whole level of casualshit.

I don't play a lot of fighting games but these two are fundamentally different. SF is a 2d fighter so it would make more sense comparing it to another 2D like KoF, GG, MB, BB or something, and Tekken to DoA or something like that.

It will never happen because it devalues hats.

At best it might be an option in competitive matches, but that's it.

>>336928993
As someone said, cosmetics worsen performance. They also bloat the game folder for very little actual gain, the vast majority of them clash with the original art style and worsen it, and I'd argue that any "meta-game" that only serves to artificially increase a game's staying power is unethical and should not exist.

>>336929157
Because there is nothing to work towards, nothing to think about, and the game becomes brainless.

Didn't become a super hit and they never finished the cast so there wasn't an engie, scout, demoman or spy even though they made outlines of them. Shame really since the Engie looked to be an old man who used a welder instead of a wrench, Scout was a roller hockey player, demoman had the full blast suit, and the spy was looked like Abe Lincoln with assess chaps.

i would say it's devolving, it was just about the gameplay with a good artstyle before. now the artstyle was compromised for profit, gameplay balance compromised for profit by adding as many new weapons as possible. players just sit around using taunt/dance items instead of actually playing, and get mad at people when they kill them.

what an evolution.

Your first three counter-arguments are terrible and not worth replying to.

As for
>Having a clever business model that keep players invested, with new content constantly being pushed is unethical?
A system that keeps players invested not because the gameplay is interesting, but because of a meta-game that gives game accounts value - making it harder for players who invested time or money to quit - and players a grind - something that hides from them the fact that they don't even like the game anymore - is indeed unethical. It does not respect the consumer nor their time. I know it's hard for a company's guard dog to understand that, but do try your best.

Out of everything you said, your reply to my second point says the most about you. I find it amusing that you interpret "very little actual gain" as being about Valve's financial gains from the tf2 hat system, and not about what the consumer actually gains from it.

Overwatch looks like shit, even worse than current TF2, and nowhere did I say I was hyped for it.

>>336925960
There are too many characters that all do different things with no concept of balance or team dynamics in mind when designed. It's just 12 interchangeable pixar rejects screaming lasers, bullets, and shurikens at each other with no particular necessity for any of them, complete with a 360-no-scope montage clip built in at the end of rounds.

It's very call of duty/battlefield esque where you winning or losing has nothing to do with the teamwork you have, nor does the character you pick matter.

Tf2 was built in mind with the design paradigm that certain team comps would counter others, and that a good balance of each role is necessary. Not that way anymore unless you find a legacy server.

Overwatch isn't inherently a bad game. It has a lot of qualities that are good, for instance, variety. It also suffers a lot from its emphasis on ults and its lack of balance, the latter to be expected in a new game.

But Overwatch suffers from the same problems that League of Legends does: It's just not enough. When comparing League to Dota, we see a very similar game with a very similar playstyle - but the Dota backend is much more open. People can submit their own projects, make their own maps, even make their own unique games, all supported by Valve themselves. This comes with its own fair share of awful things, but many, many gems come through midst the shit.

Team Fortress 2 is very similar - the options for gameplay are immense and varied. Players can host their own servers, which has created unique communities that have thrived for years. People can make any kind of gamestyle they want, and play what they want to without limitation.

Overwatch feels like a step backwards, like League of Legends does - there is no opportunity for players to change things as they wish, just premade Blizzard game modes that are tired and boring. There's no opportunity for variety, no range for strange, and nothing truly clever about it. Instead, they subsist their community on future character releases, maps, and wacky skins, hoping that it hides the immense flaws that it has in the face of TF2.

At least it has waifus, I guess. But I have the Internet, and other people make SFM already. I don't need Overwatch to look at butts.

6v6 means you can either play the hero you want or pick the hero that will help you win the game.
No real way to just keep grinding a class to git gud while NOT working against your team.

The second thing is the fact that there are no servers. The best way to git gud in TF2 is to find a community server you enjoy and just keep playing, you naturally will figure out who the good guys to support are for example. No Friendlist, Battletag or other bullshit required.

I can see why they did not do any of this and the reason is Consoles
