My Honest Thoughts on the Overwatch 2 PvE Fiasco

I would rather pay $20 for a complete movie than an incomplete Archives 2.0 project.

Not to mention, the actual AI being the dumbest bots ever. Whenever someone left the game, the bot would replace them and they would constantly fall off the map and they'll never revive you at all lol. It's a shame the pve sucks

I love the fact you call it for what it is, trash PvE. I am getting tired of seeing some streamers saying it's not bad... and having massive copium. I respect the honesty

They needed to give us an All Heroes mode, and give us the three Archives missions permanently.

Quick heads up, if you look at the lore codec files we're told the Null Sector omnics are different and aren't like the other ones, they're not 'sentient'. Which makes sense because the awakening happened once to a single generation. That doesn't now mean all future omnics are sentient. Hence why Ramattra describes the omnics as a 'single generation race, finite, dying'.

11:35 the stalker enemy is literally identical to the talon assassin from the retribution and stormrising missions from over 4 years ago, the only difference is appearance and ig they dont run towards u like the assassins did

My buddies and I have played since early access. Absolute bullshit that we were sold on waiting for this PvE mode for years then they ask 15 bucks for one hour of content.

The best part of the PvE is the cutscenes, which are free on YouTube. Easiest saved $15 of my life

i think one of the biggest problems imo was just the fact that you could tear through the bots so quickly, even on higher difficulties with more HP, just felt really weird and like they didnt pose a threat. another thing was that the ONLY difference between the difficulties was HP and damage numbers which is SO FUCKING LAZY like holy

I believe why the story is good is because it came from Michael Chu and Jeff Kaplan before they left, and then some intern was tasked to finish their vision but obviously they didn’t know the game or the lore and put together this, then Bobby Kotick said to monetize this and then never speak of it again unless the fan base complain more and give him more money for his next yacht.

you completely missed to mention that every single enemy type is completely free and available for anyone to fight in the free pve event that's happening... which is ironic since the free ones are more repayable than the paid version...

Great vid Samito! Totally agree with what I've seen. Will not purchase for sure. The archive missions were more fun. Junkenstien was more fun. OW2 just seems hopeless to be good. I keep wanting the game to be better but its just not. I can't believe they're charging for this trash.

Man the potential OW had..lore and art and even gameplay at it's core was fun and honestly to me, is still kinda fun when you play with friends. RIP OW.

they should bring back the old pve missions permanently too, or at least update the current ones to make them more fun

So thankful that you talked about the brig bug. It soured the entire experience as I as actually somewhat enjoying the third mission. So disappointed that there is no replayability and hope they make it free in the future with this type of content. Keep up the work on Mineplex!

I feel like everything we saw in these first three levels was everything we saw in the first blizzcon annoucement and the follow up dev talk like 3 months later. Having play this, i feel like Blizzard ow team does not know how to make a game. There should have been single player levels leading into the co-op. Yes the game is free to play but the things you would expect to see in a game like teaching players how to play the game and learn enemy mechanics are completly absent. you can just look at WOW raids. part of the core tenants in every raid is showing you mechanics in adds that will show up in boss fights. Its been like that for a decade. also imagine if in the torb map, instead of those slow ass bombs, it was fucking banelings from starcraft. just rolling fuckign fast and you need to use rein charge brig bash and boop and torb boop turrerts to stall and kill them cause they are fast and have a lot of health and hurt you if you are enar them when they die.

Oh wow this is the perfect length for my lunch break today lol. Dope

I agree with most of what you said, however it was clearly stated that the bots you fight in invasions are NOT omnics and NOT sentient, they're just mindless robots that ramattra created to take over the world, kind of like bastions in the old war. That would explain why they're just standing and shooting lol

Can’t believe anyone thought these missions would be any better than the Archive events, which were just barely enjoyable at best. Blizzard had showed us many times before what sort of OW PvE they were interested in making.
