Casual mobile game ? I ' m comparing it to any AAA games with large character rosters or emphasis in character development . I mentioned Pokmon GO as a simple example of a game that had a big boom and then faded into obscurity . Of course the same thing won ' t happen to Overwatch at least not in the same level , it ' s a multiplatform AAA arena shooter . nbspAnd you also fail to understand the key difference between basic games like CSTF 2 and Overwatch , which is , once again , the EMPHASIS ON STRONG CHARACTERIZATION . CS and TF 2 are virtually blank slates , and one of the few times Valve ' s handsoff approach actually benefited them , as it gave carte blanche for the communities to keep those games alive by way of modding and addons , also because of their simplicity almost like they are just shooter playsets , and because they are thematically consistent or mainly because the games don ' t dwell on those themes . Meanwhile , Blizzard keeps Overwatch behind fifty cyber Walls GoT of no touchy security are still producing major content for the game in the form of new characters , maps and additional minimal extras and emphasize the characterization and variety in their HERO characters . Not classes , but distinct personalities and visual designs . I . E . , why the fuck do this if it ' s not gonna be thematically consistent with the gameplay . nbspFurthermore , with CS at least , you can both play by yourself or host LANonline parties , so there ' s no concern when it comes to either official servers or even your own Internet connection going down , you ' ll still have your game any time you wish . And alongside Garry ' s Mod , you can also make your own fun if you tire of it . If Blizzard fucks up with the servers , or decides to stop supporting Overwatch after X amount of time for one reason or another , PUFF , there goes the game . And then what ? Oh , we have the shorts and some comics . then what was the point of making it a game in the first place . Now , I will outright admit that I am salty for Overwatch being a game that appeals to me both in aesthetic and themes , that I can ' t and wouldn ' t currently play and I am glad that Blizzard has made some efforts in the past few months to explore additional modes that could be used later down the line to flesh out some decent singleplayer content for Overwatch , and get all the antisocial fucks on board as well . But the point still stands that there are genuine concerns with the future of Overwatch , given the time of its release , the genre it exists in , and the way it ' s being handled . nbspAnd to finalize this wasn ' t even the point of my comment ! I was specifically talking about the character variety in Overwatch and how I think it was mishandled , and you made me have to explain in depth just a tiny portion of my opinion in regards to it . Goddammit . xD
