    Overwatch is pretty much overexposed.

    I personally wouldn't spend my money on a game like it.

    Hmm, I checked out the reviews and they generally seem pretty good. Even people that confess to usually not liking multiplayer modes say it's good and doesn't require being a super-genius-expert to enjoy. That all sounds pretty good, but... eh, I dunno, I feel like I've blown away so much money lately. XD

    I'm a little surprised Blizzard would make a first person shooter since they're generally into the real time strategy and dungeon crawl stuff, but it's nice to know they're doing things right.

    I didn't say it was a bad game. I still won't spend sixty dollars on it.

    You don't feel it's good enough for $60 or that's just too much money for you at the moment?

    I'll admit, with how fast prices drop for things on Steam, I often wait things out. Witcher III for $25 is a great example considering that game used to be $60 when it first came out.

    Mostly the former. When I compare it to skirmish games that I have played that are free, the jump from $0 to $60 just for some features and a moderate level of polish just feels overpriced. I feel the same about Battleborn (although I would rather spend the money on Battleborn because it feels less shallow than Overwatch) with the price turning me off when I can make do with free-to-play alternatives.

    Also it's Blizzard :s

    Nah, that's fine and it's understandable. Usually I find free to play games end up being a maze of microtransactions that usually gets the point of being a pain. I figured Blizzard usually makes great games and this seems like a promising new franchise to get into.

    I'll just hope that for a discount one day LOL xD But yes the hero designs look so cool and gorgeous like scrolling through fan art just makes me wish I was a billionaire who could throw money at a two-dimensional piece of pixels. xD;;
