Overwatch is a less violent FPS game,made up of three classes of players; Tanks, which are very strong and beefy characters with a lot of health. Then there is the Damage class, which are designed to do nothing but kill enemies. Then there is the Support class, and characters in this categories are usually weak, but rely on them healing team mates to stay alive and/or get kills. All the heroes (playable characters) are: Ana, Ashe, Baptiste, Bastion who is criticized as being overpowered, Brigitte, D.Va, Doomfist, Echo, Genji, Hanzo, Junkrat, Lucio, McCree, Mei, Mercy, Moira, Orisa, Phara, Reaper, Reinhardt, Roadhog, Sigma, Soldier 76, Sombra, Symmetra, Torbjorn, Tracer who is the main character of the game, Widowmaker, Winston, Wrecking Ball, Zarya, and lastly, Zenyatta.

Was one of the best / most memorable shooters ever released in 2016.
Nowadays... Pretty much a dead game from multiple factors:

1. It's developers don't know what the hell they're doing and are pussy-whipped by popular streamers to change anything they don't like, balanced or not (making it unplayable trash as a result).
2. Renowned for coddling the largest and most toxic / cancerous group of mouth-breathing, whiny, sweaty, tryhard, immature, selfish, peanut-brained manchildren ever to congregate in a video game community. They give League of Legends and Call of Duty a run for their money in toxic communities.
3. Due to the first 2, their own mods and devs hardly even communicate with their own dumpster fire of a community. Updates to the game are infrequent and random, they rarely (if ever) reply to people in their own forums / reddit threads, and they mostly ignore or outright silence anything bad said about them - even if it's constructive. Heroes are changed almost monthly due to dumb as hell updates, so players constantly have to relearn the game. Even then, game is still buggy as hell and people have left in droves to play other games where the game and community isn't led by complete morons.

Think of Lawbreakers and how that game went, except with much more manchildren and staff who don't know how developing a game works. That's Overwatch.
Overwatch was known as one of the most successful shooters in it's genre. It was one of the best shooters ever seen in the two years it was released, now it's dead, and Activision Blizzard has no one but their own stupidity & incompetence to blame for it.

Overwatch is a multiplayer First Person Shooting game that has won many awards for gameplay and game design. Overwatch is a game made by Blizzard Entertainment. Available to play on the Ps4, Pc and Xbox one. There are a total of 21 characters in the game, with a few more coming in the new update. Each character is divided into 4 classes, Offense,Defense,Tank and Support. The game characters are: Reinhardt, Genji, Hanzo, Solidier 76, Pharah, D.va, Mei, Lúcio, Junkrat, Roadhog, Reaper, Torbjörn Zenyatta,Zarya, Symettra,Tracer,Winston,Bastion, Widowmaker,Mcree,Sombra,Ana and Mercy. A few new characters are coming to the game and one name is Doomfist. There is a Competitive season in Overwatch, that ranges to stay around for 3 months and take a quick break for 1-2 weeks,and resume again. When Competitive season is around, players take part in skilled ranked play. In order to take part in Competitive season, you must be higher than level 25 in casual play. There are tier ranks

depending on how you played in Competitive season. For example, Lvl. 84, total rank points 3600, skilled rank Grandmaster. There are seven tier ranks in Competitive season. The rank names in order are: Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Master and Grandmaster. The 21 characters in the game are all referred to as"heroes." Each character has a backstory, and a story of how they came into Overwatch. There are also map types in the game. The four map types are Assault, Escort, Hybrid (Assault/Escort) and Control.
My favourite characters in Overwatch are: Reinhardt, Reaper, Genji, Roadhog Junkrat and Solidier :76.

I'm really good at playing these characters and many more of them in Overwatch. I also want to play as the new character Doomfist in the next update in Overwatch. ( That's true in real life!)

A game that has been living rent free in the TF2 community's heads since 20 fucking 16. They are physically unable to hold an erection without lambasting it for 30 minutes prior, which is ironic because, as you will doubtless learn from speaking to one of them, they are the main consumer base of Overwatch pornography. Despite this however, most Overwatch players are not aware of this burning hatred targeted at them. Probably because they are too busy writing twitlongers about how they are leaving their game for the 3rd time that week. Also because nobody gives a fuck what TF2 players think.
Guy: So then she told me she wanted to break up. I didn't know what to sa-
TF2 Player: Ok I've let you talk now shut up. Did you see that new Overwatch update? Why is such a shit game getting updates when TF2 isn't?! IT'S NOT FAIR! Ah- another hacker. That makes 6 now in the lobby! Damn it!
