Overwatch released in 2016, but the merger took place in 2008. I feel like overwatch was always more of an Activision game than a Blizzard game. Or at least, pre-World of Warcraft Blizzard would never have entered that genre of gaming.

I was referring to the Microsoft acquisition. That’s Blizzard canceled a bunch of their esports work.

There’s definitely some Blizzard DNA in the characters and lore. I like to think it’s as close to what StarCraft Ghost could have even been.

I had completely forgot MS bought them.

sure Rivals is strong competition but remember time where Marvel Rivals didn't exist, OW is already dying by then

If you played enough overwatch, you'd know that it was messed up from when Jeff started doing his silent fireplace streaming.

This was a silent protest by Jeff.
