Overwatch 2 Was A Mistake

The Borderlands trilogy features three of the most engaging co-op first-person shooters, augmented by an amazing-looking cel-shaded style that makes for a visual treat in every way. The third game might not be as great as many people expected it to be, but most people who love the elements of the Borderlands series will find this title to be perfect for t


Borderlands allows players to control one of many playable characters in the world , with Lilith being one of the series' most iconic characters who has remained a staple of the games since the very first entry. She takes on the role of the Siren in the first game and plays a pivotal role in the story for the sequels, with her character being a highlight of each game in the ser


One enemy type that has shown up very little, whether in the form of gameplay or concept art, is the Orbiter. These drone-like fliers seem to appear in groups and hover above players and/or objectives. In the BlizzConline video, a group of Orbiters flies over the player on both Route 66 and Numbani, and they don't seem to be attacking the player in any obvious


Being an Assault map, Hanamura comes with a design that ultimately favors the team on defense, and to a pretty significant degree. You might find your teammates rage quitting in record numbers after the 8th failed attempt to mount a successful assault on the secluded Dojo. That's because it's just not easy to capture, especially considering the enemy spawns are ridiculously close to the point B area that needs to be defen


You got a myriad of branching pathways and areas to flank, defensive positions, and high-ground walkways and platforms where snipers, Bastions, and Torbs can set camp. The map is elaborate enough for veterans to exploit but palatable and closed-in enough for newer players not to feel overwhel


The BloodRayne duology features two fun action-adventure titles that star the bombshell dhampir, Rayne . This vampire uses her arsenal of blades and guns to rip and tear into her enemies, sucking out their blood to quickly fill her health if she tanks too many hits. Her sassy personality and combat effectiveness make her a great character whom fans will love to see in a modern video g


If you want that hero shooter vibe with a more open landscape, Apex Legends has your back. Respawn took the popular style of games like PUBG and Overwatch and blended them to find itself a successful


With its complete mechanical overhaul done for Overwatch 2, Bastion the point-controlling turret is no more. Instead, this bionic buddy-of-birds is now an all-terrain vehicle, with its stationary turret having been traded for a new Assault mode which transforms Bastion into a roaming, mini gun-firing t

One shot of the Puller (aka the Wraith) takes place in what appears to be a development space meant for working with various 3D models made for the game. As the camera dollies in front of the Wraith, a few stationary models glide into view; a T-posing Tracer, a large tanker, some pots and pans, and — most curiously — a torso-less

Gundam fans have a chance to pilot their own mechs in Gundam Evolution. It is a fast-paced shooter set in the world of the classic anime. The pacing makes for quick matches but allows for enough strategy as your team fights for the


Considering we could potentially see the addition of a new Omnic hero, Tekhartha Mondatta (speculation which we base off nothing but our own desires), we might as well get the return of the stage in which he's so prominently featured as a statue, Ne


That being said, the two Bloodrayne games did get fairly recent remasters that can entice both old and new players to check this series out. The games might not be mind-blowing by any stretch of the imagination but serve as fairly competent action-adventure titles for players who want to check out a simple, fun, and gory ti


This has us wondering just what other sorts of colorful maps will be added and revamped to this epic sequel. With nearly 2 dozen stages already featured between Assault, Escort, and Control, there is no shortage of fun choices Overwatch 2 can draw from. Let's take a look at 5 of the stand-out maps we'd love to see in the sequel, and 5 duds that are probably best left beh


As we all know, Blizzard is owned by Activision. And if there's any company that loves putting out sequel after sequel, it's Activision. We still get a new Call Of Duty game every single year, which is insane since that means we're going on 16 years straight of COD sequels. But that method hasn't worked for other games. This strategy almost killed the Tony Hawk franchise and did kill the Guitar Hero franchise. In fact, it pretty much snuffed out the entire plastic instrument sub-genre of rhythm ga


Don't get me wrong. Overwatch is not a dead game. It still averages thousands of players every day so I'm sure its sequel will draw in fans. But I still think that Overwatch 2 Hero trial 2 will prove to be a miscalculation for Blizzard. This downtime has definitely had a negative effect on its popularity. I used to at least jump back into it every time there was an event, but the Lunar New Year event just started up and I barely even noticed. Nor do I really care. And plenty of my former Overwatch teammates feel the same way and have migrated to other games. There's nothing to make us return other than the allure of a new skin. And why would anyone bother to get a skin for a game they rarely touch anym
