I like both in regards to both charm and gameplay, but Overwatch tries to take itself way too seriously. It has no real story or single player content (No, making shitty movies and posting fanfiction tier backstories on a site isn't part of the game) and I find most of it cringeworthy. In game, it's all pretty cool and just fun, but it still tries to make the characters something more than they are. In the end, the game is just a fun MP shooter. TF2 isn't guilty of this. Its characters are built just for being in a fun MP shooter, so it gets the nod.

I like Overwatch but Valve games have this charm to them that no developer will ever replicate.

Both TF2 and Dota have great memorable characters, the writing and the banter between them makes the game feel so alive and cohesive.

Overwatch's characters are designed by a commitee of marketing executives. They're a collection of random cliches and dollar-store knockoffs of popular characters to appeal to all demographics, that are a multicultural group of all faiths and creeds to appeal to all countries in the world, and with blandly inoffensive dialogue without any kind of vulgarity or insults to make sure they don't violate their PG rating for mild violence and comic mischief.

The problem is Overwatch isn't really trying to be funny. It's trying to be serious. And taking itself way too serious for what it is. It's just a silly MP shooter, like TF2, but Metzen wants them to be all tragic superheroes with deep backstories and crap, even though there's no room at all for that in the game since there's no single player content at all.

Maybe it's because Overwatch was originally Titan and supposedly something else, like an MMO that probably had lore and quests and such. It just didn't carry over well. Heroes of the Storm actually has some top tier banter between its characters, and maybe that's because it was only ever just intended to be a simple MP game.

Overwatch is already more popular than TF2 on pop culture around the world. Fucking hell, I saw my cousin talking about it the other day (and we are on Perú atm.) Friends I have from Trinidad & Tobago/Rumania know the damn game, and they barely play videogames.

I'll say for sure that 10 years from now the cast of Overwatch will be super iconic and remembered by everyone all around the world. Their designs, personality and being people with different nations/being a Blizzard product will push this further and further.

Again, this is fucking Blizzard. Valve may had a chance one day, but that is over today. They just can't compete. Hell, is any Dota 2 character iconic enough to be on mainstream culture as much as WoW/Starcraft?

It helped a lot that the best and only good artist from Udon made the characters of Overwatch. They feel like Capcom characters, they could easily be a cast on a golden age fighting game. Hell, this is the greatest compliment anyone can give. You can say whatever you want about them, but Capcom were literally The GODS of videogame art and illustration.

TF2's art design is fine and definitely more consistent, egregious amount of hats aside.

But I'm quite fond of most of Overwatch's diverse and colorful designs and how they play up to the unique powers and skill-sets of each character. Even if a few are hit-and-miss.

It's TF2.

The problem with Overwatch is that Blizzard's writers are just so fucking horrible and lazy these days. All of the heroes have terribly bland and cliche lines as well as horrible one-note trope personalities.

Valve when it created TF2 was at the height of its writing and creativity. The lines are all top humor, the characters unique and likable.

Most of all they all blend together. Overwatch tries so hard to cater to everyone that the heroes end up looking as if they'd all been pulled from different games and slapped into one. And not in the good 'Smash Brothers' way.

Hell, Dota 2 has like, 111 heroes now? And every single one of them have more unique/stronger characters than those in Overwatch.

For better or for worse, the designs in Overwatch feel less organic. They give the perception that the process went along the lines of:
>TF2
>Hey you know what would be cool and hilarious? A drunk black Scotsman that loves explosions - with only one eye
>Overwatch
>What would easily appeal to X audiences? Ummmmm, okay how about a big Russian lady with pink hair or an ambiguously chubby Chinese girl

This is me. Literally me. No other character can come close to relating to me like this. There is no way you can convince me this is not me. This character could not possibly be anymore me. It's me, and nobody can convince me otherwise. If anyone approached me on the topic of this not possibly being me, then I immediately shut them down with overwhelming evidence that this character is me. This character is me, it is indisputable. Why anyone would try to argue that this character is not me is beyond me. If you held two pictures of me and this character side by side, you'd see no difference. I can safely look at this character every day and say "Yup, that's me". I can practically see this character every time I look at myself in the mirror. I go outside and people stop me to comment how similar I look and act to this character. I chuckle softly as I'm assured everyday this character is me in every way. I can smile each time I get out of bed every morning knowing that I've found my identity with this character and I know my place in this world. It's really quite funny how similar this character is to me, it's almost like we're identical twins. When I first saw this character, I had an existential crisis. What if this character was the real me and I was the fictional being. What if this character actual became aware of my existence? Did this character have the ability to become self aware itself?

I haven't played TF2 for some time, but played hundreds of hours of it on release and for some years after. Listening to some of those class quote videos and I still laugh at some of the lines.

Hearing so few voice lines, while understandabld between 21 characters, it gets old quick. Reaaaaally quick.

Then cohesion. Tf2 dudes look like they're from the same planet. Guys at overwatch look like freaks from other dimensions, akin to a moba.

And then tf2 doesn'ttake itself too seriously, just hearing merasmus and soldier spewing shit and each other then saying they'll meet back home is hilarious. Hearing mei and tracer circlejerking each other is cringy as fuck.

Tons of characters of all nations with great personality behind their animations and voices. Is a fucking FPS, million dollars cinematics, huge company behind known for supporting their games for literally decades. Born in the boom of twitch and streamers. Designed by some of the best artists/designers on the west. Gameplay first as a fucking goldplate on the center of Blizzard HQ.

its because e-sports are insanely profitable compared to traditional sports in terms of investments you subhuman latin american retard. Medical costs are far lower. Insurance is far lower. Broadcasting it doesn't have you negotiate huge contracts, and you have a gigantic fanbase.

Yet the games that became eSports were organic in nature. SC:BW became an Esport because there were many young koreans who were laid off and were sitting at home waiting for a job. DoTA became an Esport because it is a free game that had a great run on battlenet for years before valve picked it up.

Overwatch is not that entertaining to watch by comparison.

Overwatch is super low skill compared to TF2.

Overwatch has insanely unbalanced offensive classes that are always useful and has "hella Fr*ickin epic" ultimate abilities.

Right now there is no reason not to have a McCree, Mercy, Widowmaker on every team competitively. In pubs offensive classes dominate and are the primary ones played besides the snipers. No one wants to play boring Hold Shield man. No one wants to play Buddhist Robot man. No one wants to play pointless Shield poo in loo.

Half the cast in overwatch is pointless

You really cant figure this one out by yourself? Having six, head-to-toe character skins specifically designed for each hero is a lot different than the cosmetic holocaust that anon referred to, in which valve just pumped out tons of fucking random clothing items that could be equipped to everyone.

It wasnt an awful idea, but its a bit like putting too many toppings on a bowl of icecream. After awhile is just like thats enough sprinkles dude the ice cream already is double fudge brownie

I do agree about the dota 2 characters having great design and voice lines. But to be fair, we can't really give all the praise to valve for that. All the current characters are pasted from dota 1, so i would say that the rework of the heroes are good but it is not created from the ground up.

what? Why did you think that "explaining" why they are doing it diminish in any way or form that finally the huge "real" sport companies are finally betting on e-sports AND on this videogame? You could apply the same kind of though to literally everything. AND hell, why isn't the fucking Manchester United buying TF2 teams atm?

Overwatch may not be entertaining to watch TO YOU. Why do you think you can place yourself on my head (or anyone) and know whether or not they are having fun? They already are big on twitch.

Cs: GO is just a generic shooter with generic characters, it's more about the gameplay, tf2 is more about everything else

Overwatch takes itself way too seriously, half the characters are edgelords, in a game where chatacters are animated to make you think they're brought to live.

Oh TF2 without a doubt. The thing about Overwatch is that it's heavily constrained by its T rating, so all the dialogue lacks any sort of edge. Not only that, but they also hesitate to include anything at all that could even be construed as mean-spirited. It desperately wants to capture that family-friendly, scrubbed clean pixar feel, except that kind of philosophy clashes with a competitive FPS game where you murder everyone.

TF2 on the other hand, goes in the polar opposite direction. It manages to be bombastically violent and crude in a way that fits the gameplay, while still being charming. The characters' personalities all have that slight hint of insanity that makes it feel in character when they go on mass killing sprees. Seriously, just listen to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzZ6GrRTgrM and imagine any of the Overwatch characters saying anything even remotely similar.

One other thing that really bugs me about Overwatch is how "pandery" all the characters feel. Like they were manufactured specifically to appeal to certain demographics.

TF2's Mercs have enough personality and charm to make me chuckle like an idiot for 5 minutes.
But the game did a great job of ruining itself.

Overwatch needs more interaction between heroes, especially in the middle of battle. There's not enough voice lines to keep the characters active and engaged with each other.

The Engineer is a pragmatic and collected person who doesn't let himself be disturbed or distracted by the bad things on the battlefield. He's the undisputed best in his field, perfectly executing his marvelous designs, yet at the same time there is some sort of carelessness surrouding him. It's probably the texan blood. He will sit down besides his turrets and play on his guitar a little, mostly because he knows, he doesn't have to fire a single shot himself in order to win.

Torbjörn is an older man with a passion for building things, waiting for all the pieces to come together to give physical form to the things he has in his mind. He has a more simple stance towards engineering, cartoonishly beating his turrets with a hammer to level them up and such. He uses older, more simple methods, and he doesn't like newer things. For him, building things is not an art, (looking at you symmetra) but hard work. But as he says, hard work pays off.

Youre either dumb or dense as fuck

Just because something is tacky doesn't mean people arent going to buy it simply to use it for status. Even if people dont like the cosmetics, the fact is there in the game so even people that might not care much for them would most likely feel compelled to use the feature after playing for some time.

No it doesnt affect gameplay but it sure looks ugly and undoes a lot of the hard work that went into the game's charm in my opinion.

Although I dont know if going as rigid as only offering six complete makeovers behind paywalls is the way to go either. CSGO hasnt seemed to fuck up their aesthetics overall via their cosmetic implementation, unless youre watching a twitch stream

But you, instead of doing so, you ask me the character because of one of two possible reasons:

You are actually an imbecile
You want me to name you a character you will then search on Google so you can grab information from other places instead of providing it yourself
