Is overwatch 2 really that bad? (lemmy.world)

I've played maybe 10 hours total of Overwatch 2 and it is incredibly boring (to me). But it seems to get lots of updates often, heavy monetization which sucks. The steam reviews are scalding. It really makes me wonder.... is it that bad? Like really? It's hard to gauge if the game is thriving or on deaath's door...

It’s a decent game but a terrible one if you are comparing it to the original Overwatch.

I'm just genuinely curious why/how it's still getting updates and people are playing it with the way it's talked about, they make it sound like the worst game ever

Because despite the bitching it still has a very respectable user base, at least purely looking at the Steam stats:

Do we know it's average playerbase back when it was still overwatch?

No pretty sure it was Battle.net exclusive
