#DOAG . Death of a Game is a series dedicated to uncovering the mysteries surrounding the death of a game or company. nerdSlayer defines the term "death" in the context of the show as either... 1. Literally dead. 2. Had a mass exodus of players and never recovered (expectations etc). 3. The company ceased to exist. We follow a timeline of events, to uncover clues concerning why a game or company doesn't do well, and attempt to put it all together at the end for a deduction explaining how or why the game failed based on the evidence gathered.

With PvE being cancelled for Overwatch 2, which was basically the main selling point. I think this calls for a part 2.

They just cancelled PVE that largest selling point of OW2. They are so bad at their jobs it is shocking. And they brought out a programmer to be like "uh it is really hard to do and we have other work so like uhh yea we cant" instead of an actual apology or anything. Our faults for trusting literally anything Bliz says.

I smell another Overwatch case left for solving Detective nerdSlayer.

To be fair he did accurately predict the death of Overwatch, Blizzard put it down like an old dog and immediately replaced it with the new puppy Overwatch 2

Companies don't make games. People make games. An important thing to remember when almost everyone who ever had a hand in making a game you love from ten years ago have probably moved to a different company.

2016-2018 was a special time for Overwatch, I don't think I'll ever forget how the game felt back then, great times :)

"You know about Overwatch?" "It had to do something with Porn or something right?" Legiti made the same question to 3 guys in my friend group and all of them gave me that answer, at least 2 of them legitimately and the one that is a TF2 player definetly did it just to take the piss.

One thing I found facinating about overwatch is that they tried so hard to make it be a team game, to the point where going with randoms would be impossible. This runs completely counter to tf2, where they fixed the issue of randoms by combining the single player experience of agency and skill with the multiplayer experience of teamwork and strategy where you didn't need a team to be good. You just had to hit your shots and not get hit, and that, ironically, made teamwork more fun. You didn't need to swear and coordinate a big push, so successfully doing so was even better, as is the feeling of slamming the enemy team solo.

Worst part is they literally killed their own game. Unable to take feedback and balance heroes and add new content. Abandoning OW1 to develop OW2, yet we didn't need OW2 to begin with. Could have just been a overhaul dlc update or something. Way to drop the ball.

Isn't it insane that this 40 minute video came out and not even a week later and Microsoft has now acquired Activision-Blizzard

My favorite part was when everyone on your team would yell at you for not playing your character the way they wanted to.

7:25 Downplay it all you want, but Yeeting both your enemies and yourself off the map with a good charge is Peak Reinhardt.

TF2 really just exists as its own sphere. Rather than screwing people over, Valve just does nothing and the community runs itself.

I was about to comment about Overwatch 2, but so many people already did. You definitely called your shots, with this video, and nailed it.

Blizzard accomplished the impossible. It killed Blizzard.

Again, the only thing that can take down a Blizzard game is not Competition out there, but Blizzard themselves for its many failures resulting in the game's destruction.

I’m coming back to ask NerdSlayer to please make a death of OW2
