I'm more impressed you found someone who PLAYS it still, I would've thought they'd switch over to any other game by now.
Nobody is playing Overwatch just for the skins, they just don't want to switch to a different "mostly generic multiplayer game with infinite cosmetic money sinks" which is what I assume his sales pitch was for.
This is especially the case for Overwatch, which lacks the two things that "playing for the MTX" games live on. Which is hot, mostly naked skins and meme crossover ones.
If your asking why Overwatch 2 is bad:
Mostly the basic gameplay loop is team vs team with objectives (akin to Team Fortress 2.) Nothing bad on the surface except for how Blizzard has treated the players and the game:
Blizzard promised a PvE mode with skill trees which they canceled.
They lowered the total number of players per team (from 6 per side to 5). Better for balance but a downgrade is a downgrade.
They removed loot boxes for a very very slow progression system for basic bitch shit and a Battlepass with loads of FOMO skins. This was so hard it caused people to ask for loot boxes back.
They canned the original game and forced people to rebuy a lot of skins players had in the first game.
Any controversy involving the game resulted in a short comic that introduced X as sexual preference.
I had the same issue playing Smite but I can confidently say haven't paid money for that game in YEARS. Get enough free shit that I don't need to.
Now the only thing missing is better teammates in casual sometimes as man do you get some manbabies in that game!
Anyone else doing that would make sense. But given your post history I don’t think anyone would believe there is a woman you consider a friend.
