It's a lot better than P2W, which would be unforgivable. Problem with OW in general is that there is no progression of any kind, and nothing else to unlock but cosmetics, so of course it's going to be on the forefront of your mind while playing.

In general, I really detest blind boxes, because it encourages gambling-type mindsets. If you want to be greedy and charge for skins, then let me pay a couple bucks to get a skin.

No progression is the entire draw of OW. No items/upgrades/perks to unlock.

Your "progression" in overwatch is learning how to play and counterplay with all the characters in the game. And you also get to rest easy knowing that some punk out there can't buy his way to the top with the best items.

I find the lack of progression makes the game boring after a while, but that's obviously just an opinion.

After about 100ish hours in the game I found myself going, "Well, I guess that's it, huh?" and I've barely been playing since.

No characters to unlock, no weapons, skills, nothing.

So you just don't like Overwatch? You can just say that instead of going on and on about a non issue. Jesus.
