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.
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.)
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.
I don't personally mind 300 hour games but the way AC and most other games present them is exhausting. I don't want my map full of shit to do. I want to get the core experience, which should be the main story and after that sprinkle of stuff to do here and there which is all optional and there if enjoyed the world enough to keep going.
Why Ubi and others haven't figured this out, I have no idea. It's the best of both worlds.
If we've seen anything, it's that companies always need more money. But this probably doesn't move the needle enough to make it at all worth it. Or it fucks with their marketing plan simply, they seem to be pretty keen on following the plan charts set for them.
Someone with more gung-ho attitude might jump at the chance though. even if it wouldn't really make a measurable impact for them either.
