Overwatch 2 story missions future uncertain after January layoffs (according to ex-devs)
Overwatch 2 story missions future uncertain after January layoffs (according to ex-devs)
The PvE campaign was pitched as the sequel’s big pillar, now ex-devs tell Kotaku its future is unclear
Well, this is hardly unexpected.
Still, considering how PvE was supposed to be the pillar of Overwatch "2", and the outwards-facing reason for the switchover, it's sad. There was actually some cool promise in those PvE ideas, and now even the "light" version seems to be cancelled.
It was never going to happen. It was a scam to get into a new monetization scheme.
I was under the impression that they had fully shelved PvE for OW2. They basically lied and released the same game with a few tweaks to the match format. Was there actually any hope for even a pared-down co-op mode?
There was right at the very start, to help push units. I believe it was less than six months into ow2 when they realistically cancelled pve
Blizzard is dead. Don't expect them to do anything good
Wait I thought overwatch 2 a story mode and that was its entire point. Tbf I haven’t been keeping up with the game
You're right. And neither has Blizzard
Oh Oh
Why do companies not want money but yet screen and shout about wanting money?
They were able to sell a video game which came with an IOU instead of a major component. I think they kept a lot of money by doing that
Activision is burning the rope that is the ancient goodwill of Blizzard-fans at both ends.
Unpopular opinion but I think the game is in it's best state currently. I spent $40 on 2016 and haven't had to pay a dime since and I'm not playing this PVP game for it's PVE so this stuff doesn't matter to me. Blizzard is a husk of its former self and I'm still bitter about HOTS but am actually having a lot of fun playing comp this season.
It needs a bit of tweaking but generally I agree with you.
They took away access to a game we payed for and replaced it with an inferior product with the hopes and dreams to one day have single player content.. which you would have to pay for anyway. Thats all i have to say on the matter of overwatch. Fuck blizzard.
