Overwatch had something going for it; it had the potential to be something truly special and everyone knew it. It's why so many people played it.
But Blizzard decided to go all-in on esports, and in the process, ruined the game by neglecting what was great about it and trying to change it into something that it wasn't.
It was Team Fortress 2, but Blizzard tried to turn it into Counter-Strike.

Look, we're living in a post-Overwatch porn world. Nothing should be a surprise anymore.

I still think that game was only popular because of the porn

Exactly, and these devs were smart enough to realize that and make sure it happens to them too

Personally, I think it was the other way around.

how much "more detailed" are we talking here? Is this a "half life fully modeled" part two, or an overwatch part 2
