    So how come it’s getting shat on? When it released on PS5 I played it for about an hour over a couple of days. I didn’t really like it, it’s full of microtransactions (like most games), blizzard are a shitty company etc, but from my experience I didn’t feel like it deserved to be rated worst game on steam, I feel like I’m missing something.

      Overwatch 2 killed Overwatch. You cannot play the original game

      Overwatch 2 is 5 vs 5, the first one was 6 vs 6.
      Some heroes from the first game were not in the sequel
      Some changes of roles and mechanics
      blah, blah, blah

      With this I want to say If you liked the first game Blizzard made sure you could not continue playing it, that made people angry

      The game felt more like an update instead like a full fledged sequel

      The game is way more predatory with its microtransactions and battle passes than the first one, that also made people angry and the fact that they made the first game unplayable added salt to the injury

      Blizzard made a lot of promises about single player content… that was later cancelled, that also made people who were into Overwatch 2 angry

      They made a lot of people angry…
