I was gonna give more of an honest to god chance with Overwatch 2, despite literally everything that has happened giving me all the reasons to ignore them, cause I had a pretty OK time with friends when I decided to hop in with them. However, upon seeing news of yet another sexual harrassment lawsuit being filed against ActiBlizz, I realized this is basically gonna be one of those cases where I can't exactly separate the art from the artist, since the artist themselves keeps getting into so much shit.

I won't really give this a score cause I only played like, 2 hours worth and as much as I'm rather valid for wanting to jump on the review bombing wagon, I'd rather just let people who, ya know, played the game for a substantial amount of time do that. I'll do a rapid session of what I thought so far: Maps are rather sterile looking and I'm not really into how spread out the spawn points are, Sojourn and Ana were cool to play as, Genji is aggressively fine, sfx is weak as shit, having to unlock heroes by playing the game is such a weird thing for this type of genre and I'd rather just all of them be fully available.

I obviously can't stop people from playing this if they want to, but it does make me feel uneasy regardless.
