Why all this hate for OW2?

GunnarRunnar,

Because they took OW1, changed very little, made it a lot more microtransactiony, didn't release a promised co-op mode that basically was the reasoning to release OW2. I'm sure there's more but that's about it.

Makes sense

A few months ago they announced they were scrapping the story campaign they claimed to be working on for years and years.

Magiccupcake,

Dont forget they removed a tank slot, greatly changing how the game was played. And IMO not for the better.

minerva,

I don’t like some of the micro transaction changes they’ve made, but as a competitive-focused OW player, 5v5 was for sure a great move when it comes to game balance and the overall feel/pace of competitive matches. Wish they wouldn’t put heroes in the battle pass though. That is stupid as fuck.

Blamemeta,

Literally all the worst parts of modern gaming made by one of the worst companies.

Mereo,

I’m in my late 30s and I remember when Blizzard was highly respected in the industry. sigh, how the mighty have fallen.

GreenMario,

Absolutely nobody from the golden age of.Blizz still works there.

Studios are people, not brands.

delmain,

Yeah, I’ve said before that as much as people liked to hate on Chris Metzen, it seems that when he left it was a massive migration of optimistic talents out of the company. Now, that’s not to say that he caused people to leave, as opposed to him leaving for the same reason that everyone else did, but I’ve looked at it as a big turning point in blizzard’s history of being generally good-natured.

When did Flatout 3 move out of the top spot?

I first read it as Fallout 3, and thought that can’t be right!

For what it’s worth, pcgamer.com just had an article talking about this. They said it’s not really review bombing but more of a pulse check on how gamers feel about OW2. Battle.net doesn’t have a review system so this is just the first opportunity for gamers to express how they feel about the game in this way

Well, there is the MetaCritic user score too. It currently sits at 1.4, so it should surprise nobody.

Honestly I’m hoping Blizzard will release all their other games on steam as well. If they get review bombed and Overwatch does poorly though, it will lower the chance of that happening.

rastilin,

Do we really want more of their cash grabs on Steam? Their old stuff was great, but now the ship has sailed and their newest stuff just isn't that good anymore. Especially after the latest Diablo 4 patch.

EremesZorn,

Nah, there’s enough garbage on Steam as it is, we don’t need any more. Fuck Blizz.

And thats where it fricking belongs.

GunnarRunnar, (edited )

I'm not s fan but if you really think it's the worst game on Steam woof...

SuperSaiyanSwag,

Yea, one thing I would love to see on Lemmy that I rarely saw on Reddit are level-headed gamers when it came to controversies.

Neato,
@Neato@kbin.social avatar

Civility argument is about protecting the powerful. Let people have opinions. We all know why people are upset. Downplaying it just makes someone sound like an apologist.

GunnarRunnar,

People are voicing their opinions, what's the big deal? We should all agree with these gamer tantrums?

Neato,
@Neato@kbin.social avatar

"Tantrums" show your true purpose: denigration.

GunnarRunnar,

Yeah these review bombings are ridiculous, so what? Am I not free to express my opinion? And I'm not quite sure how anyone's not allowed to have their opinion, if it's dumb then you can call it dumb.

sardior,

Are the reviewers not allowed to express their opinions even though other people think it's dumb?

conciselyverbose,

It's not a review bombing to review a deliberately hostile game as a bad game.

DmMacniel,

We should all agree with these gamer tantrums?

no, why should we? But should gobble up the lies and the shit corpos give to use? No, absolutely not.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@kbin.social avatar

No, I would think the proper response is to stop playing this game and giving it attention rather than continuing to play it but leaving a negative review. Whatever, we're all free to do as we please, but the decision making doesn't make a lot of sense to me. It's also clearly not the worst game on Steam, because people still want to play it.

whatisallthis,

Why is it on the reviewer to be level-headed and not the consumer?

Take some personal responsibility. If you see a game at 1/10, read the reviews. Do some research.

You’ll get much further teaching yourself to be smart instead of teaching society to be smart.

DmMacniel,

it belongs there because its simply Overwatch 1 without all the features promissed for Overwatch 2. 80 gigabytes from /dev/random has more worth that this “game” and its cheaper!

GunnarRunnar,

For sure, agreed. Major downgrade and when I tried it at launch it still had the same queue problems OW1 had so not like they even fixed anything for a casual player.

But I'm pretty sure we both know Overwatch 2 isn't the worst game available. (I'm not going to go out of my way defend OW2 to anyone, it's not worth it.)

PopOfAfrica,

The way steam reviews work is a pure recommend or do not recommend syatem.

Its more accurate GBE say ow2 is the least recommended game of all time, not the worst

GunnarRunnar,

It makes more sense to think about it like that.

The game is currently being review bombed. Valve will soon do a big cleaning: rockpapershotgun.com/valve-to-remove-off-topic-re…

AlexisFR,
@AlexisFR@jlai.lu avatar

But it’s blizzard who bombed their own game…

Faulty,

9% of 75K reviews are positive. I’m very curious how many will be removed. Also does Blizzard have a review system for their games? Curious how these reviews could be considered “off topic” if there’s no first-party system to compare them to.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@kbin.social avatar

The reviews don't get removed, they're just hidden by default. And it's considered off topic if the content of the reviews is about something that a team at Valve determines to be unlikely to help a new player decide if they want to play the game.

Mereo,

Like this “review”: https://i.imgur.com/sgEYUKd.jpg

sardior,

The steam post that is referring to is about 3 1/2 years old.

GunnarRunnar, do gaming w Overwatch 2 is now the #1 of the worst Steam games

Did I say that somewhere?

And calling review bombers reviewers, like they offer legitimate unique criticism is kinda funny too.

Good

sub_, do gaming w The DLC we have all been waiting for

Hell yeah

Nic also has a movie coming out digitally this week, titled Sympathy for the Devil, no idea whether it’d be an okay movie or just another direct to DVD garbo, but still gonna watch it since I’m on the quest of watching every Nic Cage movies.

Also since he was sighted with Kojima recently, and Kojima has been wearing Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent’s t-shirt, I do hope that Nic would star in his next game. (He’s probably already scanned for Death Stranding 2 cameo)

So is he the monster and the other players run around as the declaration of independence?

Dankenstein,

He’s a survivor but it’s actually John Travolta with Nicholas Cage’s face and the monster is Nicholas Cage with John Travolta’s face.
