One thing that sticks in my head is when Jared Nuss says "clearly we couldn't continue to deliver at the level YOU expect" so... it's our fault as gamers I guess for being just too darn demanding in our relationship with a multi billion dollar game developer probably a bad take but that line stick in my brain

The part where u mention the team "patting themselves on the back" over the little amount that they DID do, has been so true for years as a path2pro player for a long time. For 2 years straight since they stopped updating ow1 to focus on ow2, they would go on interviews every few months for "exciting game announcements" where they would practically just talk about nothing for 30 minutes straight, show that bastion would have a hat, then talk about how great the development team is working on the game. This should not be surprising at all for anyone whose kept up with OW consistently

The entire reason OW2 exists is because they claimed they needed a new engine to be able to pull off what they wanted to do in the PvE (lighting, weather effects, etc), but switching to that new engine broke so many things. Lots of old features are still missing because they couldn't port them over, and they even had to disable characters (Mei, Torb, Bastion) because of game-breaking bugs that suddenly popped up. And don't forget, in a Game Informer interview from Sept 2022, Aaron Keller stated that it took them OVER A YEAR just to make one mythic skin. These people aren't just con artists, they're completely and utterly incompetent.

My hypothesis on Corporate Mentality:
1. Declare PVE is canceled (6 yrs content over)
2. Wait for upset fans to blow over
3. Re-purpose scrapped PVE content into small elements of the " New events/skins/maps and content"
4. Monetize the shit out of step 3 to recuperate losses for 6 years of PVE development.

This actually put the nail in the coffin for me in OW. I used to love the game, played it every day, loved all the events and whatnot. I was also really looking forward to the story mode eventually. Then OW 2 came out and I thought "ahh theyll add PVE later, itll be fine :) " and was even more excited. Now i feel like theres no point. The story and characters was the most interesting part. Very few multiplayer FPS games actually have a good story thats interesting to me, and OW was one of them. but it looks like the devs dont give a shit so theres no point in playin for me anymore.

You are absolutely right.
The PvE was the only reason the game was still on my console. I miss OW1 and there was a reason it was the only pvp FPS game I played.
I havenāt put any money down on this one but I had been ready and willing to pay for that story mode.
The announcement was the biggest disappointment up to date which is an āachievementā on its own.š”
