'I still feel the experience I love so much in there, it's just damaged by such intrusive greed'.
came to Steam today as part of a new Blizzard initiative to publish some of its games on Valve's platform. The debut is an opportunity to attract a new audience, but it has also opened the gates to an onslaught of negative player reviews.
Blizzard's free-to-play hero shooter has received over 6,000 user reviews and a"Mostly Negative" tag on its first day of release. Many players criticize how Blizzard has handled the last year of development, from the transition to the sequel to the gutting of its promised PvE Hero mode.
"The game is fun, I still feel the experience I love so much in there, it's just damaged by such intrusive greed [that] I can't recommend it to anyone," they wrote. Many of the top Steam reviews sound like they come from current or retired players who are taking this opportunity to express disdain for Overwatch 2.
