And it doesn’t help that it’s almost every game I’m playing that our team fucks up last minute when we almost win pushing the payload because the enemy team had a junker queen who was pocketed by a mercy whilst nano boosted by an ana.

@@GouShin1 yeah I know. Sometimes I do find myself missing the 6v6 gameplay and want to go back to that but 5v5 is also decent. Ofc the gameplay is still pretty great but I just still really miss what it used to be. Even though it may have been more unbalanced I still think I used to have more fun playing the game back in like year 2 or something. And the way they’ve monetized OW2 is just terrible to me. I strongly dislike how it’s turned into a free to play game. Back in OW1 it felt like you may actually be able to complete a hero and collect everything if you just continued playing which was awesome. Now i know for a fact that it will never happen. Like I’ve been playing quite a bit since OW2 launched and I’m not even close to being able to afford a single legendary skin from the shop. And getting cool new skins and cosmetics was one of the things I really enjoyed about OW1 but that part has pretty much become obsolete now for anyone who doesn’t pay for it. So yeah I just wish I could go back to OW1 since I feel like a part of the joy of playing the game is gone now. Also miss some of the old maps and features. OW2 just feels like such a huge downgrade in almost every way except for some of the gameplay changes and such. Sorry for the rant haha 😂

@@CvpArt same, OV2 is not a bad in itself. It just feels somehow like a huge downgrade. Part of the reason for me is that the magic is gone. Back in the day OV was not necessarily better, but you could feel the game briming with potential. They devs had so much passion and love for this game. Do you remember all the animations and comics which gave us backstory to each character. The game really felt alive. Like you are part of smt. We did not only get new characters and maps. Each character was tied to some bit of lore and map. These even changed over time. For instance gibraltar got partialy destroyed, after doomfist made his first appearance. Not only indicating, that events happened right now in the real time, but also kept us wondering what blizzard had in store for us. Idk, I did not just lost all interest after they abandoned OV1. Blizzard dissapointed me in so many ways, that I completely lost any hope. Heck, they do not even get the birthdays of there heros right anymore.

@@andresperrle7984 Yeah this is pretty much exactly how I feel about OW2. Still has the incredibly well done gameplay and it still gets cool maps and characters, but yeah it just feels like they made OW2 to add the crazy monetizing aspects and justify it with the game now being free to play. Also totally agree with what you said about the game brimming with potential. The universe feels so rich and huge but it’s like we never get to see the full scope of it, since the content has been really mediocre recently. Just imagine all the cool stories they could tell if they really had invested in better pve stuff or maybe even making overwatch 2 a primarily story based game. Could have been so interesting to see. But it seems very likely that it’ll never happen and that makes me feel sad, and quite disappointed. 🫤

This genuinely makes me kinda sad... I'll probably be leaving OW by the end of this year, because I as a player dislike the cancellation of pve, but will stick around just long enough to take a glance at the season 6 story missions. But seeing this video took me back to a much simpler time. Staying up late with friends to grind levels, practicing heroes none of us were normally good with, aiming for that POTG, etc. In a weird way, watching this helped me pay my respects to the ow memories that I have, and helped me feel content with walking away from ow2.

FPS games were never my thing, Overwatch is honestly the only FPS like game that I can say I enjoy! I don't care for warzone,. cod, etc... Battlefield 4 was fun cause I'd just join friendly lobbies to kill my teammates because I was drunk and it was fun af! Yea I kicked from lobbies a lot but it was fun. Battlefield 4 was actually a fun game for awhile, but again fps games aren't my thing. Fighting games are, so honestly an overwatch fighting game would be pretty sweet but blizzard would fuck that up..

Something I miss so much about the old overwatch were the events. Especially the archives and Halloween terror events. I’ll admit after the first week of the events being out it usually got boring. However, the first week was filled with so much enjoyment from the new content and game modes, and they came out with so many new cosmetics you had a real reason to grind the game and get event loot boxes. Nowadays, they’ve gotten rid of most of the events and locked all new cosmetics behind a paywall most people can’t afford, and still won’t update the content of the events either. Blizzard has truly ruined everything good about overwatch and it’s such a shame :(

My favorite memory of Overwatch was in a vsAI game (I was such a noob at normal games, but ironically, almost every time I played vs AIs I had a play of the game). I was playing Reinhardt in Eichenwalde, and just as everyone did, I went in front of the AI team's spawn point waiting for them to come out, I remember that we destroyed the bots four times, but it was on the fifth time where things got spicy for me. When the bot team got out of the spawn I charged and I made my first and only team kill. That one is the best memory I have of OW and also one of my happiest memories of all times

I really miss mass rez mercy. I was the person who solo healed a 5dps team. Mass rez was so fun and heroic, truly felt like an actual “ultimate” ability, not to mention it’s iconic tying it all together. And when we already had another support, I would play Symmetra. I loved giving shields to teammates. It’s really sad that both my favorite heroes are now so different to how I first fell in love with them.

But I don't know, I enjoyed shielding everyone and having to reshield them when they respawned. Something about it just felt satisfying. The same way in which Torb used to drop armor packs to help the team. I think they were the same amount (I could be wrong) but Torb's packs definitely were used more and felt more helpful imo.

I thought since I died from it, that my team could too and thus had to hide as well. But I'm sure what really happened was one of the bots ulted or something. It was pretty funny though, ulting on the payload and everyone around dying.

My favorite memory of Overwatch? I remember I was playing in Eichenwalde and I was a Mercy and I was swinging left and right between walls, making sure my team mates were being healed, and my team mates actually vocally responded to me, cheering me on and thanking me after the match. It felt like I was actually playing with a team as they had my back and I had theirs and there was communication.

the overwatch beta was definitely my favorite time with this game. i was looking for a new game to play and decided to just download the beta since it was free. and i fell in love with ever since. changed my life too

Defense class was more for area denial, meis wall, snipers, junkrats balls it was meant to cut of areas making them dangerous or hard to go trough. I love the defense section and I would love for them to add it back. That way heroes feel more purposeful then just damaging the enemy team you have a job to do. Defend the point or cut off an area. There is a lot of different hero designs that could work well in this section.

We'd take turns playing, watching the other play, and helping with call outs. You can call it back seat gaming, we called it sibling bonding time.

Overwatch 2016, anytime! My greatest memories were things like huge resses (that felt so good) and being on fire and getting mvp card at the end. Good times. I really liked lootboxes and hos easily you could get credits and then buy your favorite skin (if that didn't drop from the box before). It was easy, cozy and fun to play Ow1. Dropped my most loved game two months after ow2. It's just sad.

I got the PS4 version on January 8, 2017 for my 14th birthday. I loved playing with my best friend, however not alone because it was very toxic back then. I do miss loot boxes though. Just last night we were playing. I'm still getting used to the change on my PS5 but we're having fun. I remember when Sombra was released. Her origin story was what made me want to play. I was so happy when the switched Symettra's class.

Watching this just makes me want to have some sort of way to play OW1 again just for fun haha, hopefully when the anniversary event comes around we could get some old stuff back even if its just for the event, líke 6v6 and so on

Would've been cool to preorder it and get the Widow's extremely rare outfit, Noire. And playing since the beginning with no hero limits!

My first experience with overwatch was with my cousin when he lived with us. I was 7 it was 2016 my cousin had just got overwatch a few months prior. I played a game and I was hooked. A few years later he moved out when I was 9 then my younger brother came in clutch and told my mom I loved this game called overwatch. For my 10th birthday I got my own copy of the game and then it led to depression, stress, anxiety, and lots of fun times.

Who here misses Overwatch 1 because you get free stuff (Like skins and such), One thing that Overwatch 1 fan should remember is back when it was 2016-2021 you can get loot boxes for free…FREE all by playing the game it’s self, Leveling up you got it loot boxes,Arcade mode three loot boxes, You can get duplicates too

In OW 1 I found my first friends. We were helping each other, training together, having a blast. This is the story mode I paid for. Unfortunetly they yanked it from my dead cold hands.

best time was probably when i came back home from school and saw an update. It always used to be awesome cause i would save up credits to bujy the new event skins. Peak time for me

Yup

i genuinely wish i was there, i miss player levels and loot boxes and completing hero galleries, even when i got a bad skin it still felt like a win because i got something, getting items was more fun and enjoyable, it was something to work for

I heard about Overwatch before it came out but mostly in passing. The few screenshots and gameplay I saw, along with the positive feedback made me interested. I bought it day 1 at Best Buy and it came with a free license plate and poster which I still have. I was a Sophomore at the time and just got out for sumemr break, so I got to play it all night long. I had SO much fun and everyone on mic did too, so many cool chill people playing and having a good time. Everyone was just figuring out the game along with you and it was a great experience not dealing with overly serious players. I also wasnt keeping up with the games updates at the time, I guess I thought that this was just it, this was the game and nothing else would be added going forward. I was pleasantly surprised when the first summer games event dropped, it was pretty great. But the Halloween Terror and Winter Wonderland really blew me away, those were so much fun! Even though the events got repetitive for years after that, there was still a lot of charm in the game and the cinematics/new heroes were always exciting. Overwatch 2 is fine, but you just had to be there for Overwatch 1. I like the updated graphics and heroes for 2, but I can't help but want to go back to Overwatch 1 for the nostalgia and simplicity of it all.

i am playing overwatch since 2017 and never noticed that there was something like "rate match"

Take me back to 2016 😢

Take me back

overwatch 1 was just more fun, even at the end when it was unbalanced as heck, the soul of overwatch was still there, now its just different. no lootboxes, no 2cp no on fire, just a battlepass and overpriced skins, we didn't even get pve.

I watched the Winston cinematic so many times while booting up overwatch I have it completely memorised

goodbye Overwatch, you will be missed....

Im not lying but watching blizcon 2019 live hit so good My favorite moment I ever experienced

The trumpets made me cry ngl. I miss it

Kinda crazy how much stuff came back since this video's release -on fire system -og noodle text -old hero intro voice lines (rare chance they say them before a round starts -ASSAULT MAPS -a few more skins -comp ranking system (since the new one is a refined version of that progression)

Og noodle text?? That's not in ow2 what lmao Also I'd just like to say on fire was still slightly better, cause it'd always show what gave you fire and how much Assault maps aren't really back imo, arcade doesn't really count lmao Comp still is red and looks worse than old purple theme, even though comp progression finally works close enough to ow1 lol

One of my favorite memories was when overwatch did their first double xp weekend. It was like 2017. Me and my friends played overwatch for like 40 hours straight because we were all young and it was summer so we had no worries. We liked grinding levels because every level gave you a loot box and we loved getting skins. Now overwatch is super toxic and it makes the game not fun. I remember getting overwatch for Christmas 2016 and adoring the game. Reaper automatically became like my whole personality basically. The christmas music and the old lobby gives me this feeling of just hapiness and nostalgia because i miss being a kid.

I had just got my PS4 as a grad present and this was game had come out a few days later. Decided to randomly buy it and had no prior info to it. Had no idea it would change my life the way it did

This was one of the first games I had on ps4

I remember my first time playing in 2016. I was on Tracer on kings row and my dad just showed me how to play. From then I started playing the game constantly. Those were good times.

I knew when Overwatch 2 was released it was going to be a mistake. I miss Overwatch 1. It played better. It was my favorite game, ever.

Same. While everyone was hyping about it, I felt like something was wrong with me for not being excited, and in fact negative about it. I just wanted my Overwatch 1. We were correct. Unfortunately.

My favourite memory of OW was definitely Sigma's release. Still, to this day, the best origin story video in the entire game, still one of the coolest characters in the game, and the fluidity of his barrier back before he didn't have that long ass cooldown felt so good. They could've removed grasp and rock instead of doing anything they went and did to him, and he would've STILL been my favourite character in the game. Honorable mention to when Reaper's teleport got the buff that he could use it midair. I remember freaking the hell out about it.

lucio pixel was crazy

Love your videos 🤩!!

The time before ranked was by far the best time of Overwatch, no tryharding, no meta, I don't even recall getting much more from winning than losing. You just hopped on to have fun, that's it.

You provided the video I wanted with the energy and delivery that I didn’t want.

Came to OW2 after a big break from OW1. This video was so nostalgic and made me think how much older I am now. Also I did not realise they took out 2cp just like that. I lowkey miss Volskaya or Temple.

Hanamura, colony, Paris.. I forgot about all 5 til now. Hanamura and Valskaya were my favorite comp maps. Syms og tp ult was such a winner on 2 cp.

It was full of life back then, I had so much fun grinding from silver up to masters with my friends, level 900. I just feel robbed of time and money, the games so dead and they gave up on it 😢

Mercy hiding waiting for a huge POTG huge rez

The real saddest part is the fact Blizzard probably would make less money with this "new" Overwatch than the old if people didn't give in to buying the battlepass or skins

My favourite memory was playing with two of my friends everyday and having so much fun

My fav moment from Overwatch 1 was when I back capped on eichenwaldes first point as orisa

@11:08 Did anyone else saw a Torbjorn turret fall inside the lootbox or am i going crazy? XD

7:50 back then when they actually showed your level like if you are platinum or gold or silver or bronze it shows on your plaque now it’s just blue

Overwatch was one of the few games that did loot boxes actually a good thing. I miss them so much...

I miss lootboxes 😢pls bring it backkk

I remember playing overwatch with my friend and Mcree being my main , good times lol

On fire already coming back

I was a Mercy main and my friend was a Genji main begging me to heal him all the time lol.

my favorite era was when you could open loot boxes
