I think Respawn just doesn't have the artistic talent that Blizzard apparently dedicated to Overwatch. I don't play Overwatch much anymore, but there were plenty of times during seasonal events when a new legendary skin would come out and I would become completely enamored with it and NEED to get it (either through grinding for boxes or, just like Blizzard intended, paying real dollars for hopefully maybe get them through a huge set of boxes or shards).
Ultimately for me I suppose I cared more for Overwatch's characters and lore than the actual gameplay. Here in Apex the opposite is true and so I don't really care about costumes and skins when I'm just here for the fun gameplay.
I'm cautiously optimistic but really hoping they tone back the "humor". By the end of 2 I was just forcing myself through the dialogue so I could just play the fun game underneath.
The rumors have been circulating for awhile on a PC release but I'm still shocked they put it on Steam. I'll be thrilled to have the OG trilogy ready to go on my PC whenever I want to jump in for campaign or sweet sweet custom games.
edit: 4k HDR 60FPS. PC will have staggered releases for each game though, starting with Reach.
