So first Blizz dangled these missions as the whole reason for OW2, then after pushing the new game they announced that “sorry, the single-player game was too hard,” and now they’re selling us the scrapped content they abandoned as a one-off?
Overwatch has had an identity crisis since Jeff Kaplan left. It’s a husk of what it used to be and a disappointment of what it could be.
It was supposed to be tf2 with moba elements. But now it’s trying to be left4dead with moba elements. I think it would be better off to return to roots and just keep innovating on the character and weapons and skills.
A buddy of mine loved OW1, ranked top-100 for Rein, and preordered OW2 a long time ago. Not only did Blizz not refund his $60 after they changed directions, he said he still has to pay for this content.
Obviously the main takeaway is another reminder to never preorder games, but that is so slimy.
