So glad I never spent money on this past buying the first game—not only do they treat their employees like dogwater, they can't even squeeze out the big thing that justified Overwatch 2*

    I assume the reason it was scrapped was because it would be more difficult to shove transactions into it. They'd probably have to just give people skins for completing storylines.

      I think that's part of it, and I think much more of it is they don't have to do that because bazingas will keep buying in anyway because of the vapor vibes of Epic Blizzard Storytelling With Waifu Characteristics. Not delivering the promised product arguably makes it less disappointing to the faithful than delivering something that comes up short of their euphoric expectations. Star Citizen's grift does this too.
