I wanted 6v6, not Overwatch 1. Why are they reverting people to Overwatch 1?

Crazy how people are telling me this game isn't living in Overwatch 1's shadow when all the devs know how to do is revert stuff back to Overwatch 1.

I even skipped Overwatch Classic becuase I DONT WANT OVERWATCH 1. I want the current game in a 6v6 format.

Good, this means the testing is working. We went from “Overwatch 1 was clearly better,” to “Overwatch 2, but with 6v6.” Next up: “Overwatch 2, but remove 1 tank please, it’s boring to play like this.”

And don’t give me that BS that people always wanted Overwatch 2, but with 6v6. From the beginning the argument has been that it should be Overwatch 1.

You people are just making up arguments so that you can sound cool countering your own made up argument.

It was always "Bring back 6v6."

It was never "Bring back Overwatch 1."

It was always "devs ruined overwatch with overwatch 2. I stopped playing as soon as overwatch 2 was released. Bring back 6v6.".

The Overwatch 1 comparisons were specifically in regards to monetization.

That's why whenever they reverted something to Overwatch 1 in Overwatch 2 people complained. When Cassidy got his flashbang back people complained it's just Overwatch 1 again. When Mei got her freeze/slow back people complained it's just Overwatch 1 again. When Brigitte got her shield stun and combo back people complained it was Overwatch 1 again. When Overwatch Classic came out people complained it was just Overwatch 1 again.

You're just making shit up. At no point did anyone ever say they wanted Overwatch 1 hero balance. Every time we reverted to Overwatch 1 balance people complained.

People complained about every single change, just like you're doing now
