I'm assuming that this is one of those times where a game gets scored well without the media taking price into account. I enjoyed the beta but I don't see a $60 experience here, with all due respect to the game.

Well, good thing it's not 60 dollars! And even if it was, most games are 60 dollars. Why wouldn't this one be allowed to cost $60?

It's almost like you didn't read the rest of the thread before you quoted me lol. Somebody else pointed out that on PC it's $40, and at $40 I can see low 90s reasonably. But as it stands it's relying 100% on a positive feedback loop with a dozen playable characters to succeed, in the same vein that TF2 has done for years for free. 

 

That's not a knock on Overwatch or anything, but it's questionable to give it variable prices of at least $40 for the time being, and the scores should probably reflect the current content the game has in respect to the price, rather than seemingly give it brownie points for the time being on good faith.
