I disagree that OW2 is not fun to play. People playing only for skins or rewards have the wrong idea entirely.
I’m just mad that I bought OW1 and they forced me to OW2.
Agreed. I wish they would go back to 6v6. I can see why they wouldn't want to have two separate queues. Queue times are long enough already.
Fair enough. out of curiosity, did you play much OW1?
I played about 80 hours of OW1 and now I'm up to 140 hours in total since Ow2 came out. Couldn't care less about cosmetics I just like to play a few matches of quick play when I'm having some beers. Still fun to me.
Glad you are enjoying it. I played several hundred hours in OW1, and I don't find OW2 nearly as fun. There are other games I can play that I enjoy more. I do wish there was another game that I could play for 20-40 minutes to fill that late night short-gaming-session craving.
I gotta admit, I do prefer the old 6v6 of OW1 but OW2 is still fun IMO but I'm a filthy casual. Overwatch is my only FPS game, other than that I much prefer single player games. I'm also a bit salty that I bought into OW1 about a year before OW2 came out and now I don't even have a choice between the two which really sucks.
Yeah, I had several hundred hours in it. I prefer 6v6, but OW2 still scratches a similar itch even if it's not exactly the way I want to play.
