Overwatch is a multiplayer game that can be enjoyed casually, competitively, alone, with friends, for 20 minutes, for 6 hours, it doesn't matter. It constantly is updated and changed giving a new meta to the game frequently. This makes for constant change, constant change allows for new heroes and new maps to come frequently as well. However the lack of story and other non-multiplayer modes made for an experience that felt like there was always a small piece missing of a massive puzzle. Overwatch despite not having a story offers the best multiplayer mode of any game ever.

The game is good but I got super burnt out after about 200 hours in comp. Having team mates can be stressful because lots of the time they are just bad or argue with each other. I think Blizzard is kind of foolish for not making a TV series or movie of this game as I think their animated shorts are awesome and I think the story could make a pretty awesome cartoon or something, even an anime.

The best online game and very excited for the second part

Amazing game with great story expansion potential in many different directions. Whether it is the original Overwatch members coming together, kids that grew up in the Omnic War, villain backstories etc. This game is ASKING for either a movie or a TV series.

Best hero shooter I've played so far. Saw the first gameplay trailer in 2014 and instantly looked forward to playing it. 6 years later and I'm still active on it waiting for its story expanding successor: Overwatch 2.

...and has upto 3D graphics. No but seriously great game, amazing game, 10 watches out 10, can't fault those sexy little widowmaker tatties.

Overwatch for me personally was one of the most fun games I had ever played of the decade. The years of its popularity, rise and prime were from around 2016-2020. After Jeff had left, things unfortunately went downhill quickly. However, the worst thing they ever did was to COMPLETELY get rid of Overwatch and instead completely make a new Overwatch from scratch and just place the number 2 beside it. I can never forgive the developers and department for doing that. Ever. All they did was come out with a campaign and special improvements. These aspects literally could have all been ADDED to the first Overwatch. What sucks even more is that people that love Overwatch or those that have always wanted to play Overwatch or have never heard, CAN NOT go back to play the first one ever. So basically in todays world now, it's an awkward conversation of someone asking "Hey is Overwatch cool?" Then there's a reply of "Yeah! Overwatch 2 is cool!" "No. The first one is what I'm asking about." "Oh...there is no first one anymore. It's just Overwatch 2."

If Jeff had still been around, maybe none of this would have ever happened? I don't know, but the mere existence of Overwatch is just gone forever now. The only thing you can do now is reminisce and remember the good ole days you had with the first Overwatch. Hence why I'm writing now about how great it was, because it is the only thing I can do!

I will say this. If you wanna play a game that has similarities to the first Overwatch, I highly recommend playing Paladins. It is way more fun than Overwatch 2! The best part is it's FREE!

In conclusion, Overwatch, does not simply exist anymore. Such is the fate of an amazing game that was brutally reaped of its benefits. We had fun with it though while it lasted! Rest In Peace Overwatch....

You get endless fun and intertainment overwatch is down right amazing good graphis and godly gameplay overwatch two will have gorgeus graphics and a masterpiece story mode Get it

I'm going to try to sum Overwatch up. Overwatch is team based combat in which you play with others around the world in many different modes. There is a hero roster with 32 different playable characters all with unique abilities and backstories. Overwatch also has a creative mode in which you can create a game you desire from (The floor is lava to Kill to grow and thousand more modes) and you can play games created by others along with people from around the world. Overwatch is a playground with infinite possibilities. Which hero will you choose?

Pros: This game has a lot of characters, which means there are a lot of abilities for you to learn. Also, this game is not hard to understand. Cons: This game community is kind of bad, due to the fact that this game is an online game, so people don't care much about trash-talking, or being toxic. And the price of the game might not suitable for some people. Gameplay: This game easy to understand, basically it is a 6 versus 6 first-person shooting game. And the point of this game is to push the car (payload) to the point that they marked on the map, and the next thing is to capture the point on a map to win the game. Overview of the game: This game is an fps game, included with loot boxes that you can open for the skins inside the game. And this game has a lot of play modes such as arcade, competitive, deathmatch, capture the flag, etc. Moreover, if you are bored with the same kind of gameplay, you can join the finding game section that will let you create your own game mode that you can do any setting that you wanted by yourself. Furthermore, this game has competitive modes that allow you to play this mode to gain rank, and this is the most challenging mode that you can play in this game against other people. If you are in the higher rank, it is mean that you have a higher level of skill play than the lower rank player.

It a younger game a game like call of duty but more kid friendly but still so awsomr

When it first came out it was amazing and I was so excited about it but now the creates are kind of ruining it. It's still good though

Its kinda just bad. The game was actually really good when it came out but now the creators are just ruining the game.

There are flaws here, there's no point denying it. One is sexualuzation of some of the character that led to some ugly memetic phenomena, which leads us to Overwatch's atrocious comunity. I know it's being handled, but I think that more efforts should be exerted so that the tens of thousands if not millions of players who will join the game when Overwatch one will be free, will be able to enjoy the game with a better comunity. But there's only so much that Blizard can do. So it's on us to do the change.

Very good game plus and minus +good heroes -no minus thanks my comment

The game was one of the best and most fun multiplayers out there. But with the latest updates it just isnt that fun anymore.

A great game plagued with an awful, toxic community and needless updates. This game could learn so much from the basicness of Team Fortress 2. All the different abilities do nothing to add to the complexity of the game as many think, they just make it confusing and embrace meta gameplay and shun those who wish to play differently.

Overwatch is an entertaining and captivating PvP game that has an interesting and diverse cast of characters in an intriguing world, but fails to actually incorporating any narratives into the game.

Whilst it is very enjoyable to play, the game suffers from a lack of balance within the large cast of characters, a poor match-making system and an unfortunately toxic community both in and outside of the competitive scene.

The worst aspects of Overwatch is what it lacks. There is no proper progression system where you are properly rewarded for playing the game - instead you play several matches at a time to level up and receive a lootbox, which may or may not reward you with anything that feels rewarding (most of the time it does not). Even with its competitive scene rewarding unique currency, it is a grind to obtain and can only be used to unlock the same golden variation of each character's weapons.

The best aspect of Overwatch is, or perhaps it is better to say *was* it's frequent content drops, which included new cosmetics, maps, characters and events that kept the game fresh and enjoyable at least for a limited time. However, now the game has been barren of any real content for years and this only further highlights the flaws with the game.

I came from Team Fortress 2, expecting the exact same fun as in the game, and, for the most part, I certainly found it. Overwatch has three main roles, Tanks, who protect their teammates, Damage, the only role 70% of the player-base uses and Support, who I mainly play. I just want to say that playing as every hero feels unique, and extremely fun. But one of the core flaws I found with the game was how much the tanks slowed down the combat. If the other team has three tanks, it's absolutely painstaking to break through their defenses sometimes. Its combat is fast, which I really enjoy about it. Then, there are the Ultimate abilities, and most of them are pretty good. But I find that the ultimate economy destroys the main part of Overwatch, which is being able to switch quickly to a different hero to counter another one, as you lose all your Ult. Charge, and so are at a massive disadvantage. I heard a statement that I really related to, 'When it's fun, it's extremely fun. When it's bad, it is terrible.' I play this game only casually, and I hate having to have a coin flip if I'll like the match or not. I only really have fun with Control and Payload maps, which are much faster and give every Hero a decent opportunity. But you can't choose what maps you want to play, resulting in another coin-flip. Then there are the heroes, and while I think it's slightly important to make each one of your characters have distinct personalities, Blizzard took it to the next level. For a game with no campaign, it certainly tries to make you love every character, and get invested in the incredibly stereotypical Sci-Fi story. The game looks very nice, I won't lie about that at all, everything well-textured and very smooth. The soundtrack is pretty enjoyable, every map having its own special style of music, but nothing, except the excellent, uplifting main theme, really sticks out as amazing. So overall, as a world, Overwatch is pretty solid. But this is a game, and when the gameplay isn't all too enjoyable, the world means nothing. I don't hate Overwatch, in fact, I think it's pretty likeable, but it has key flaws like the Ult. economy, broken hero launches, the reliance on people switching, even though no-one wants to and the lack of a campaign. Buy only during a sale, honestly.

From this song alone you shouldn't need a review. But if you really want one, here you go: What about Widow Maker? I'm already Widow Maker. 'Nuff said.

Overwatch is a bit confusing and complicated for new players, which is exactly what I was when I started playing the game (duh). There are too many controls for a simple shooter game, the tutorial doesn't teach anything properly and the games we play while waiting for an online game ends abruptly without giving any indication that there was a time limit the whole time. Every single character has a different move set, which is great, except, there are too many characters. Mastering all the characters is hard, especially considering you can pick only those characters that have not already been taken.

The biggest problem probably comes from its provider. Battle.net is a trashy platform that makes the PC run very slowly. This in turn makes the game constantly drop the frame rate and there are no settings to stop it from happening (it happens even in the lowest graphic settings). And this in turn makes aiming super difficult. By the time I reach my crosshair at the enemy, they have already taken me down.

The lore given to the game is also very nice. Every character has a short based on them. It's nice to see how much depth they have given every character. Just seeing the characters itself makes it look interesting - a girl with a robot, a gorilla, a hamster, an Indian demigoddess etc. You know you're in for a good time when you have characters like these.
