So the recent bad news about Overwatch 2’s PvE cancellation was really disappointing, but honestly it kinda just reminded me that I hadn’t played OW2 in a long while, so I decided to jump in and just play some games.

Queue times for Ranked Any Role is 8-15 mins. Even Quick Play Any Role is giving me queue times of 5+ mins.

I’m in Japan but that also usually means I can get games in Australia and Korea. At launch I was getting games in seconds. Now it just kinda feels dead.

They just launched the new season too, which begs the question if I was silly enough to buy the Battlepass… how could I even go about completing it.

I understand the Blizzard hate here, but I would also be quite sad to see the game just disappear and not have further development to improve it. Is this just a my region problem, or is this common globally?

    This kind of post is scary. Overwatch was all the rage at release time. It seemed that it had everything, action graphics, skill requirements. I never played it but man, how did they allow their franchise to fall so low that the game is now considered dead??

      It’s like the Game of Thrones of arena shooters. I’m gonna laugh if TF2 somehow outlives this. At this rate, the only thing people are gonna remember about this game in 10 years is the porn.
