I guess they're giving up on convincing people to download their launcher.

Lol. I have hundreds of hours on OW (NOT OW2) and Diablo III (not IV), and i can safely say I forgo ever playing those 2 games again because of the toxic entity that is Acti-Blizz. Not that I have much choice considering OW cannot even be played as its own game now.

You'll have to hold out for OW Classic (that you'll have to rebuy).

That one single downvote is because they know it's true. 🤣

Played alot of OW but really not a fan of OW2 and how the whole game revolves around the battle pass.

Was nice to just play a game or two a night, get my free lootbox and slowly get skins

Now unless you dedicate a full time job amount of hours, you'll be lucky to get 4 unlocks a seasons

Plus single tank is awful

I left when I read that Blizzard staff got the axe while Kotick got himself a sweet sweet money enema of a bonus.

When Michael Chu left in 2020 i started playing more Monster Hunter and Genshin. When Jeff Kaplan left I finally uninstalled Battle.net.

Thanks. At least I have some affirmation I made the right choice. At least I can be content I'm playing something worthwhile like Genshin. #damnedeitherway 🤣 🤣 🤣
