Pros and cons of Overwatch

Pros :

Amazing artstyle and graphics

Awesome gameplay

Massive scope for expansion

Almost no kids or idiots due to paywall

Well designed and fun to play characters with distinct personalities

Beautiful maps to play in

For me the biggest pro is that Solo quque players get matched with other solo ququers and party with party making it a lot balanced as you have to work with complete strangers.

Its very much a team game. So a single player cant carry his team like one can do in CSGO or DotA

Cons:

Not many gamemodes atm

Servers shut down randomly. Very rare though

Play of the game being somewhat broken

Solo quque takes long time to find match

Sir Anchorage's post

Anything else you want to add?

Cons

they're already selling loot boxes for a dollar each
this means microtransactions, in addition to the origins edition which is basically day 1 dlc

it feels like this is more of a cash grab than something built to last

I'll continue to play TF2 either way. Both games can coexist

You will care after Valve desperately tries to save its sinking ship.

Dunno what you're trying to accomplish with this "doomsaying".

Playing TF2 is not the same as, say, not emigrating from your economic sinkhole of a home country.

Tf2 fluctuates constantly so I don't really see how it's the "beginning of the end". And I mean tf2 is completely free so it'll be pretty hard to kill it with new players constantly joining.

We can't confirm this as the game just came out, and well TF2's playerbase tends to float around 30k to 50k players on weekdays. Still, we'll wait and see how Overwatch will hold up in the summer.

Speaking of summer, get ready for the summerposters.
