Overwatch is a team-based multiplayer online first-person shooter video game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. It was released in May 2016 for Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Overwatch assigns players into two teams of six, with each player selecting from a roster of over 20 characters, known in-game as "heroes", each with a unique style of play, whose roles are divided into four general categories: Offense, Defense, Tank, and Support.

A beautiful game with an engaging world and an utterly miserable play experience. Blizzard put together a functioning product but the lack of institutional knowledge for making a shooter is painfully evident: Overwatch is less a challenge of your shooter skills than it is of making sense of a horrendous heap of visual noise as abilities are over-animated and the flat surfaces keep everybody crossing in front of you. These are real skills to test, but not exciting ones.

It was one of my favorite games of all times and then they had to go ahead and kill it. Nothing killed this except bad decisions from the higher ups in Blizzard. Overwatch 2 is a shell of its former self.

Extremely poor "slingshot" balancing and the complete lack of narrative cohesion makes Overwatch a lesson in disappointment.

Brazenly and indisputably sexist; uninspired gameplay.

Really fun, but more of an addictive kind of fun than a genuine kind of fun I feel. Spend hundreds of hours into it so I guess I like it…

Strangely addictive, though it took two years of expansion to really feel "big" enough. I appreciate the vastly different playstyles offered by the hero selection - would be nice to see that sort of thing in a turn based RPG some day.

An extraordinarily well designed and maintained shooter from a company with 0 experience in the field, often times marred by toxic team mates and questionable arcade choices (pve events twice a year? c'mon blizz. lump them in the arcade like we know you should).

I hate the game now, but it became my new go-to multiplayer shooter in an age where I didn't have one already, and when I thought I would never get into these types of games again ever since growing out of my Counter-Strike phase many years ago. The creativity in the character design is still unmatched. But, the online community is toxic. Any game where some rando can ask me "are you literally fucking braindead" for picking a character and NOT get punished for it is just not worth my time.

I like the characters, but the maps all feel very similar, and some modes are a lot better than others.

Shined with that usual Blizzard polish, Overwatch is a stand-out example of hero shooters in the last couple decades. Interesting and unique characters all with wildly different mechanics keep the gameplay fresh and interesting for a long time. However, lack of varying game modes and a single player experience hold the game down.

It's pretty good fun but I fell out of wanting to play it pretty quick.

Never was into TF2, so I don't have much to compare it to. Even then, Overwatch is a whole lot of blah. The map design is overly flat with the most basic amount of verticality imaginable. They also give defenders the advantage on certain maps. Ultimates are too centralized as a deciding factor in average matches which makes the balance annoying and stifles playmaking in an obnoxious way. The actual shooting itself is overly lenient, with large hitboxes and boring weapon design.

in terms of how much value I've gotten out of a video game purchase, this might be at the top of the list. the inherent limitations of multiplayer-only games prevent this from being one of my very favorite games ever, but it's absolutely one of my favorite ways to kill 30 minutes.

I've never been called so many slurs by children since Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on the xbox 360 :')

My friends play this game a lot. I play this game because I want to do things with them. If I play this game I must like it. Cognitive dissonance is a hell of a drug.
