They’re in addition to and a part of the season pass mechanic which means you get the worst of both systems?!

They are apparently also in weeklies and other events.

Unrelated, I come from Valorant and am genuinely shocked how much free stuff people get in other games.

The fact that it’s not even daily is going to kill any pull this has with me. It needs to be linked to progression level, like it used to be

You’ll pay to pay to pay to pay. At some point a game might occur.

Nothing inside a video game should cost real money.

You know shits bad when you start missing lootboxes. I guess when the alternative was skins that cost more than the original game, you’ll take what you can get. Deep down Overwatch is a good game with good mechanics. But Jesus Christ, fuck Overwatch.

Same, gifted it to a bunch of friends and we had years of awesome jams. Then OW2 dropped and so did we. Shame, those were good times while they lasted.

If we allow this to continue there will be nothing else.

Only legislation will fix this.

Great, I liked them. Getting a free loot box for every level up was just a nice little extra.

I never bought them, and I had saved a couple of hundred boxes to open one day. Sadly they got automatically opened just before the release of OW2.

I also liked them. Hopefully the article is wrong about

“Season 15 also features the return of loot boxes,” a press release says. “You will be able to earn a variety of cosmetics when collecting loot boxes. They will be available from weekly and event rewards.” You’ll also be able to earn one loot box via the free battle pass and an additional two in the Premium battle pass.

Weekly and event rewards, and one free one per season??? That’s just insulting

That’s just loot. You don’t like lootboxes - you like when games function as games. The part they’re bringing back is charging five actual dollars for gambling on bullshit that should just happen through gameplay.
