The only reason I stomached all the bs of Overwatch 2 was for the promise of PvE. As soon as they announced they weren't doing that anymore I uninstalled the game. The fact they squeezed out some half-assed story missions for a price was just the final nail in the coffin. It's sad bc I loved OW1, but this game has become nothing more than a soulless money vaccuum.
OW1 was so much better, and I can guarantee they would've made more money from that model over OW2's BS. The change to 5v5 unbalanced the entire game and required significant map changes.
It boils down to greed; some MBAs in the company were absolutely convinced that they'd make more money from this new model. Their greed sunk the whole game. Classic Blizzard.
MBA-ism strikes again
I never played either game, but I'm kinda with you on this. I don't give a shit about LoL or Valorant, but those get their own spin-off media even though they're not as popular as Overwatch.
I kinda love the design of the characters, and I'd love for there to be some possibly animated show or something about it all. Oh well.
