      Overwatch 2, the game that promised PvE…doesn’t have PvE.

      And then, Blizzard being removed.

        I mean didn’t they just add the pve? Yes they horrifically downscaled it and its honestly insulting gamer were sold a premise but were given a downgraded game especially after they killed the original one. I just think its a bit disingenuous to say it has no PVE, when its there but pretty bad.

          I offer you a cup of really good coffee. Like, REAL GOOD. I hype it up for months, maybe years. Get you really excited for it.

          And then I give you a tiny cup that holds approximately 2 tablespoons of cold Folgers.

          Did you get what I offered?

            No.

            You start with a really good cup of coffee but are then offered the best coffee. So they take your really good coffee that you already paid for and toss it out, break the machine that makes the really good coffee and then serves you garbage coffee in a slightly smaller cup and then spits in it.

            Your point was it doesn’t have PVE. I’m not here to defend their shit PVE* and I even make a point to say it is fucking scummy they killed their OG game for this garbage but lets at least deal with facts right now. They have a PVE you have to pay 15 bucks for (and you don’t even get to play the ones from the original game for some stupid reason)

          Do pve missions from the first game still available? I don’t follow it much.

          I think one part that people are outrage about OW2 are those PvE DLC contents with $15, but yeah, it come with coins that worth the battle pass. So, actually it’s kinda cheaper.

            At the moment, there are none of the archive level. Which is super silly. So you only get 3 missions with some cutscenes with them.

      Yes, a 13 year old game getting a crappy port job to last gen consoles and being sold for $50 is awesome.

      And yes, the unpolished Diablo 4, with less content than a plain cheese sandwich, is awesome.

      And yes, OW2 replacing the original entirely with the promise of a fully fledged PvE mode, but instead delivering the same type of simple PvE missions they already had in OW1, is totally awesome. /s

      It’s the companies behind them that are money hungry and soulless. Vote with your wallet
