2023, and Blizzard is still the most effective in announcing news. Not much is changing in this regard.
Everyone is well aware of the situation of Overwatch 2, and there is no point in dwelling on it. The production suffers from a number of problems that, according to Blizzard’s earlier assurances, were not supposed to appear. And with that, the new year is basically still the same fears, hopes, and something that does not change at Blizzard.
So far, the developers or people connected with OW2 in general are best at announcing things that players are literally supposed to have their brains blown out from. Years pass, and the eternal announcements continue to accompany us.
Now this is going to be a hit
One person, specifically the “Lead Narrative Designer” in Overwatch 2 announced something, after which players are said to understand the game’s current situation. Except that hardly anyone believes it anymore. It’s even hard to count how many similar announcements there have been in the past, where it later turned out to be about some skin.
Overwatch 2 is an eternal wait for the moment when things will get better when things will change, while more and more people seem to be beginning to understand that until PvE comes out, there is no point in hoping for anything meaningful.
Even now you can play a specially prepared mode, which was supposed to be a breath of fresh air, something new and exciting. Meanwhile, players rate it very average, not to say bad.
Many people in threads on Reddit write that they would gladly return to the first Overwatch if there was such an option.
