You wouldn't have even known if you didn't spend all your time stalking people on social media. And why do you care what other people play?
I know /v/ is full of hipsters (which is probably why they dropped Doom 4 when everyone started hyping it up), but this is ridiculous. Go play some video games or something.
even Elliot Rogers came back from the dead to play Overwatch
>>338653150
world of warcraft brought mmos to a casual audience, now they're bringing tf2 to... okay you got me tf2 was already pretty casual but it didn't do so well on consoles.
Yes it is the new call of duty.
>>338653458
don't underestimate /v/'s autism
>>338653458
yes, if it's popular it's shit to a lot of people here.
>>338653150
I hope so, the more popular it is the more updates it will get and longer lifespan it will have.
>>338653458
I unironically won't. Knowing some normie piece of shit is playing the same game as I am is a serious turn off.

>>338656052
Then don't justify it. Let it be unjust and buy it anyway.
>>338656052
40 bucks isn't that much bro
no its the new battlefront for normies
>>338656052
How poor are you?
>>338655331
I am pretty sure that every game you have played has also been played by a normie
>>338653150
I hope so, I've been waiting for something do undo CoD's popularity with normies for like a fucking decade. I just want a change of pace from bland military shooters.
>>338656052
You can't justify $40? Do you not plan on playing it that much?
>>338655687
I didn't fall for the marketing, its just a colourful flavor of the week first person shooter that'll die in a few months. The only reason it's getting hype is because Blizzard is behind it and a serious marketing. I mean not to mention PC clowns are hyping this to be the second coming of christ because they feel like it's a love letter from Blizzard one of their most valued developers.
A good measure of how successful it'll be in the long run is how fast hype for it grew and weather or not there was reason to justify that hype. Take dark souls for example, that game was a seriously slow burner and it gained eternal fandom for good reason. Overwatch emerged out of nowhere after appearing breifly years ago with CGI films that were midly received and now and suddenly gained millions of fans. You know full well this is going to be a forgettable game within a few weeks. It simply isn't going to be the TF2/Counterstrike it want's it to be, it's a temporary first person shooter at it's core.
>>338656396
>>338656274
>playing $40 for a game with less content than TF2 had in 2007
>>338655687
I still have the waifu fanart. That's like the biggest thing this game has going for it.

>>338656316
>>338656396
But it's just a prettier looking f2p. It has a huge lack of content
>>338656137
The casual needs to know its place.
It needs to understand that this is a hobby enjoyed by many kinds of people and its sniveling is not necessarily appreciated by everyone. Its ignorance does it no service to the skill nor enjoyment of the games it plays. It does not need to change from being a casual player yet it should not expect other things to change specifically for their purposes.
>>338655603
There is literally nothing more autistic than trying to refute a statement with "Not an argument."
Seriously, you might as well tag it with a giant puzzle ribbon that says "I'm not misbehaving, I have autism!" underneath it.
>>338656585
>>338656651
I will probabbly get 60 hours+ so I really don't care.
No, it's that game that will be talked about for a little while and then forgotten.

>is Overwatch the new Call of duty for normies?
No, it's Dark Souls and it's variants.
>>338656673
Memes are not arguments, and that particular one was ad hominem.
>>338653150
Why do normos take pictures with the dumbest faces while holding stuff they bought?

True, though Blizzard said they'd push a ton of updates during summer. Just wait and see if it's worth purchasing in fall.
>>338655687
I can't remember a game being shilled harder than overwatch in recent times.
It blows me away that people still give money to Blizzard.
>>338656883
I really don't see your point m8
I could spend 1000+ hours playing dwarf fortress but it doesn't make a game that costs money shit.
I have a fucking job I can justify spending money on video games.

Why the fuck would you buy it on consoles when they confirmed consoles wouldn't be getting all the upcoming content
>>338656052
with the money Blizzard is pumping into this and trying to make it the new hot game they're clearly going to put out more content

>>338655687
It literally boggles my mind how anyone can find this interesting. Character design, game progression and even humor are significantly weaker than fucking TF2. Apart from waifu bait, the game has nothing going for itself. Are people really that stupid? They must be.
Is it because it's Blizzard? Or marketing? In any case, it reeks of another flavor of the month that will be forgotten very soon.
Is Overwatch balanced as a console game or PC game? I never played Hat Simulator and am bored and want to try a class based fps. I'm leaning towards getting it on console to play with IRL friends, but if it's obviously designed around m+kb, I'll probably play on PC.
>>338657348
I know. It's a fact
>>338657169
isn't it like 8 more hours?
>>338656493
I don't think you understand the blizzards staying power, they know how to keep their games alive.

Reminder that manchildren who dismiss a game because it's "casual" see gaming as a job (they don't have a real one), something that takes important time and dedication from their lives so they may feel important and distant from the 'normies'.

I hated it the whole time, you fucking cunt. It's TF2 filled with stolen ideas and pandering - be it pandering to tumblr, to edgelord 14 year olds, or to waifufags and SFM porn makers. This is a game made in a boardroom, and you paid FULL FUCKING PRICE FOR IT. TF2 was $20 for Christ's sake.
