Personally, Marvel Rivals has taken the spot in my gaming rotation that Overwatch used to fill.

Imagine if Rivals put a PVE mode in the game. They would really be eating overwatches lunch then

It’s on the docket

Unless it’s one of them fake leaks that turned out to be real leaks… that might be fake.

But yeah it’s clear Netease is not afraid to have fun with Rivals given we’ve already seen Jeff mode and Doom match.

It’s the more casual experience that I’m here for and overwatch is sweat

This one feels quite disingenuous compared to your normal coverage of things given Overwatch has never had its main player base on Steam, and the now actively worse experience it is to play there vs either sticking with BNet or if you've Game Pass, BNet via Xbox for the expanded unlocks

Overwatch is suffering from an identity crisis. The devs have no idea what to do, and every time they re-invent the wheel they fracture the playerbase more. I've put a thousand hours into this game, and they have no interest in appealing to Overwatch 1 players it seems. I think they need to fail.

I really like the pivot they just decided to do out of nowhere too.

Rivals is eating their lunch and *now* they’re coming out and saying “oh we have um… a BIIIIIIG PvP overhaul coming! Yeah! Be excited!”

No one’s leaving marvel rivals you fuckin’ geese.
