had a spark when it started, now it's just....:francis:


it's legitimately remembered more for the all the porn it spawned rather than the actual gameplay :picard:

In what universe is Overwatch a failure? :dahell:
I'd say in most universes :yeshrug:
I get it, nerds run deep, if everybody was cool then nobody would be cool :hula: and I say that to say there isn't a single person on my friendslist that plays it, I don't know anybody personally who plays it. It's not a title that a non gamer would say they heard of it. The people who do play it usually can be found in their underwear at noon :dame: I could give a giddy ghat damn fukk about how many Twitter followers the game has, THE GENRE IS TRASH! (Story Tru)

It's the most successful fps ever. What kind of question is this? Sure there is a VERY VOCAL group who is pissed about how blizzard deals with it's comp mode(im part of that group) But to say is it a failure? Millions of people play it daily. MILLIONS.

Hell they have a entire esports circuit for this game. How in the world could it be a failure?

:dwillhuh:Breh you really want to die on that hill:

  • The game bridged the gap between moba and FPS without it being trash:usure:
  • It saved the ESports scene and made it legit :gucci:
  • It did lootboxes correctly:what:
  • The "Beta" was the ACTUAL GAME:mindblown:
If anything, it's Activision's fault for the game losing it's steam, not the actual game itself:aicmon:. Once Activision politely fukks off and let the devs do their thing, it'll be back like it's 2016, until then it's just going through the motions:shaq2:

lmao OP talks like OW is like Realm Royale or some shyt, it's the most successful FPS and it has it's own profitable esports league...in what world is that a failure?

Forreal:mjlol:. Like the game actually has a league that's being picked up by ESPN. The game made it cool to be a competitive gamer in a world where such things is laughed at:why:

Breh, my blood pressure raising reading this shyt:dahell:
