Naw man, the constructive criticism of games is the lifeblood of VGchartz really, someone brings up a reason why they don't like something and others chat about how they agree or disagree, I think you've found yourself on the receiving end of the vocal minority who would rather name call in caps because you have dissed an aspect of a game which launched. But I think Blizzard has just done themselves a bit of an injustice when it comes to the PC release of the game, since if you click on buying it on battlenet you are taken to buy the Origin pack which has things like a few skins for a selection of the Heroes and then bonus content.... for all of blizzards other games, Mercys wings for Diablo, a winston pet in WoW, a card or deck for hearthstone, some portraits for starcraft and so forth, but the thing is... if you click to buy above that you can select just Overwatch on it's own without the digital cosmetic stuff (mostly for other games) and you find the game there for €39.99 I think in trying to push the Origin pack they've actually made people think this game is more expensive than it actually can be gotten for. That said consoles don't have an option other than Origin pack... and also don't get the items for the other blizz games on the PC ... so fuck console owners it seems a little bit :D
But yeah... Never stop criticising shit you don't like in games... when that happens then devs will have zero feedback on what is good or bad about their games, not a good thing! |
Glad I'm not the only one. :)

THANK YOU CAPTAIN OBVIOUS! Do you think I'm fucking stupid or did you not read what I said to you? I fucking know it's free now. It WASN'T free when it came out almost 9 YEARS AGO! That's all that matters in this argument. They will add more maps, but it's not like they need more. Look at the two most popular games right now. League of Legends and CS: GO. CS: GO has maybe 10 maps (but only 7 are played at a time) and I don't play League, but I'm pretty sure there are hardly any maps in that game either. The game is not boring, as evidenced by the millions of people playing it right now. Just because you can't find any fun in it (maybe you're just not committed to doing anything but running up the middle of the map and dying) doesn't mean others haven't. There are ZERO problems with these microtransactions. You can voice your opinion. Doesn't mean it isn't stupid. Just know that a fuckton of people disagree with you. Just because the users on this site back you doesn't mean shit. The last question is, what multiplayer games do you like? What is fully fleshed out? Not repetitive? What is good in your eyes? I highly doubt you'll come up with something, because I'm pretty sure you just don't enjoy these types of games. Which is fine. Go ahead. But there's no reason to shit on the game because you don't like a particular genre.

Regardless of how Team Fortress was at Launch, it is free now.
Should we wait 9 years for Overwatch to catch up? No we shouldn't.
Team Fortress 2 is Overwatch's competition now and Team Fortress 2 is free, now.
Counter Strike has hundreds of community made maps. It also launched with 16 maps, more than overwatch... But you are only re-affirming my point, the same Criticism I hold against overwatch I hold against Counter Strike.
With that said Counter Strike GO was cheap on it's launch, like $15-$20 AUD. Not $100 AUD.
League of Legends is also free. So even if it had one map, that's still more value for money than what Overwatch offers. (It's hard to beat free!)
As for microtransactions, I'll agree to disagree, don't wish to keep beating that dead horse, I disagree with them in full priced games, whether it was Diablo 3, Halo 5... I disagree with them, give me expansion packs or chunky DLC instead.
Now your last question is a legitimate one.
I like games where there isn't only a couple of game modes. Take Unreal Tournament for instance, Death Match, Team Death Match, Capture the Flag, Free for all, Duel and then you have mutators on top to change everything up again.
What does overwatch have? Escort, Assault and Control. (You could include Hybrid I guess.)
Halo 5's Multiplayer has Warzone, Warzone Assault, Arena, Capture the Flag, Stronghold, Grifball, Breakout, Assault, Fiesta, Firefight, Team Slayer, Free for All, Infected and more.
Most games with a fully featured campaign also have a more fully featured multiplayer than Overwatch, it's something we as gamers have come to expect out of AAA games... A multiplayer component that lends itself to all sorts of players.
