>Overwatch
You can never mention this game without mentioning that one huh?
I'm not saying it is any good or bad, but you know OW owes like 90% of its succes to the name of the company, right?
>>339761179
>the irony of this post
how many BB threads were there without people mentioning Overwatch?
>>339761059
Pic related is BB lead writer.
Do you recognize a pattern?
>>339761487
no?

Cons
>Can't even start the game without connection to steam, And yes that includes the offline campain
>Oh did i say offline? Because the game needs to start a server and load even when playing in private and alone
>Enemies actually lag around in offline play
>If you for some reason take more than 120minutes on a level the game shuts down your server
>The game is a cluttery mess, With gliding animations and terrible effects, making it almost impossible to tell what's going on half the time if the enemy count even goes above 5
>Having to watch the 30 second flash animation and intro every time you try to play a mission
>Coop is worse than it has ever been in a gearbox game, It's astounding really how on my screen i've killed the boss
>Only for my friend to have the boss randomly die half a minute later than me
>Multiplayer tries to be a fucking first person moba, with minions and everything
>Again it's a cluttery mess
>Can't make out key targets because all of them are hidden behind power ups and effects
Pros
>The character design is cool as fuck, with huge variation between them
>Using abilites, While they LOOK cluttery, FEEL amazing and are very responsive.
>Surprisingly lovable characters aside from the constant "I'm swearing so its funny"
>Extra lives make dying an actual threat instead of an inconvenience
>Gear that mixes up playstyles every so slightly
The cons outweigh the pros, I've played it for a total of 8 hours so far but its very quickly getting stale, If i didnt have a buddy to play with i'd have stopped 5 hours ago.
>>339761487
Most people who write for Gearbox appear to like having bananas shoved into their anal cavities?
GUYS PLEASE
>>339761487
Come on guys, IT'S NOT FUNNY ANYMORE, GUYS PLEASE
>>339762807
>Haha guys i sure do love our games
>You want shift keys dontcha? here i have a bot posting for me every day
>Someone tagged some artwork wow isnt that fantastic
>Our game is only 40% off right now! buy now and we'll give it away and shit in your mouth! please take it!
Thanks for the keys you gave me you sack of shit
Does Randy Pitchford have even a single redeeming value?
>>339761059
>Overwatch will be dead in a year
I didn't buy either game, and I still think this is true.
GUYS PLEASE, CAN'T WE PRETEND BLIZZARD DOESN'T EXIST FOR FIVE FUCKING MINUTES...!!!
>>339762807
Literally JUST tier hair
>>339763107
7 million people own and play overwatch. How do you expect them to all disappear?
Will Battleborn COMPLETELY shit on everybody who bought it by going F2P y/n
>>339761375
>It's okay when I shill, not the underdog!
blind blizzard bots
>>339763215
Nah, Gearbox will lower the price to a stupid low level but free isnt their game, They'll do like borderlands 2 instead and sell hat and costume dlcs.
>>339762823
>having glasses and a beard makes you a nu male
look at this virgin lol
>>339763139
Don't lie to yourself anon. It's not healthy
>>339762823
this has to be genetical, it's like the fish mouth syndrome from feminazis
>>339761179
Gearbox did it themselves when they pitched it as the overwatch killer for some stupid reason.
>tfw bought Overwatch on PS4 because offriends
>Everyone keeps talking about how many players there are and how it will never die
>I have seen 60% of the names of randos before on PS4, and it takes me upwards of three minutes to find a match with a three-man pre-made
PS4 will die in 3 months tops
>>339763463
>there are 16 points in the pic
>lel this and this make a nu male
>>339763463
I agree with you except the glasses thing, only a weak faggot with shit genetics use glasses, that's a FACT
>>339761059
The game is already dead shills you don't need to keep making these threads.
Go back to making sure there's 3 Overwatch threads on the front page at all times.
>>339763203
and 12 million people bought halo 3. Now, it didn't die out in a year, but overwatch is not Halo 3.
>>339763810
Maybe you should take a lesson on genetics or finish high school before shitposting m8.
>>339763616
Have you considered that's because of location based matchmaking?
>>339763403
They already made it feel like a F2P game with having to unlock the other characters and having to spend in game currency for the DLC characters if you didn't get the Season Pass.
>>339763616
You are lying. Why?
>>339763982
Even if that's the case, it's ridiculous how small the pool is. I don't live in the middle of nowhere but it has become "Oh there's that guy he always plays Roadhog and has his mercy friend with him make sure you shut him down and account for him jumping around"
>>339763906
How long did it take halo to die out? Not a year, I don't think.
>>339762545
Well summarized, anon.
To me, the only cons that actually bothered me alot were
>the game needs to start a server and load even when playing in private and alone
and
>Can't make out key targets because all of them are hidden behind power ups and effects
There's some 2d explosions.. I know it's part of the art-style, but jesus it those are ugly, even at maximum settings.
Still, it's not a bad game,
but the pvp is.
This is why the game falls short, the only thing that can people expect from this game is average at best.
>>339764162
My experience differing from yours doesn't make my post a lie, anon.
>>339763616
it takes me 30 seconds to a minute on weekdays because all the normies are at work, but on weekends it only takes 10 seconds at most
>>339764520
Yeah, later in the day and on weekends is better but it is pretty weird how the numbers can vary. Last Saturday I had a group of six and it took us five minutes to find a match a few times, albeit that never happened again
>>339763810
My eyes are fucked because of my line of work.
>>339764338
It's actually a decent player experience if you play solo campain with a ranged ish character. It's melee characters who suffer hell because of the effects.
Also
>Stuns that can easily lead to your instant death can happen at any time
>This wasnt balanced checked for single play
HNNNNNNNNNGH!
AAAUUUUUUGH!
>>339764310
Read the second half of my post. Halo 3 was not marketed as a meme game, it just became one over time, and the dankness of Halo 3 was outdone by call of duty 4 and le ebin hektik noscopezz.
Overwatch was billed as a meme game. It will be replaced by the newest meme shooter that gets unveiled at e3. God forbid a new counter-meme game is announced.
UNGH! IT HURTS!
AAAUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHGGGHHHH!

Nice to see these two girls enjoying some platonic workouts together
N-NOOOOO! CANT... UGH!...GIVE...UP....HNNNNNNGH!!!
>>339764743
Yeah, on Advanced / Hardcore difficulty, you can clearly tell that melee characters were 120% designed for PVP only.
Then, in pvp, you can clearly see that nothing works as intended, like for example the sniper, Marquis, can shoot you behind obstacles in a way that you can't even see his head at worst.
The pvp truly ruined this game's potential
(Huff huff huff) HNNNNGH! I'M NOT STRONG ENOU-AAAUUUUGHHHH!
HNNNNGH!
THAT SONOFABITCHBROUGHTTHEWARTOUS-AAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHHH!
>>339762823
Why is Lobos Jr on there? He's fine.
>>339765396
Because he has a beard and glasses
>>339761179
First post best post

Five of the people in that image don't have beards.

This must be the most ascended grade of shitposting
>>339765286
Needs a name.
Keep it vidya
>>339763589
you should NEVER name yourself a [Blizzard game]-killer. That's a self-inflicted kiss of death right there, never works out well.
>>339765162
thanks for the reaction image
>>339762823
>all of them early balding

So when are the mods going to prematurely shut this thread down while allowing 5+ overwatch threads to be up?
>>339761487
Him and Burch both used to write for Destructoid. Makes u think..
Will anything save this game?
Why do you need to keep making threads about this?
>>339765660
rivals your little cartoon shitpost.
