Okay so Ive been pretty skeptical about this whole race to make the next big FPS-Moba thing. I mean up until a couple days ago I couldn't tell the difference between Overwatch and Battleborn. I didn't try the beta for Overwatch because I just didn't care. This all seemed like it was just gonna be another Evolve situation so I had decided to just wait for everything to blow over.
Then only a couple days before Overwatch released my friend, who is the type of gamer who doesn't follow gaming news or go to any game sites and who basically only plays Madden/COD/Battlefield, starts asking me about it and I tell him what I know which is team based competitive shooter. Anyway he gets the game and sells it to my other IRL gamer friend who also mostly just plays COD/BF based on comparisons to Timesplitters which I still don't get. And now I'm getting the game because they've gotten it. But I'm still very skeptical about it.
Is anyone else still skeptical about Overwatch like I am? I mean all the hype for it just seemed like bought hype manufactured by Blizzard and Gearbox. I guess at this point I don't really have any course of action other than to see where it all goes. And I suppose I have a better than average chance of having a good time since I will be playing it with people who I have been playing competitive shooters with since GoldenEye. I cant help but wonder if people will still be talking about this game after the dust has settled.
