But now, the day has come where fans aren’t completely pissed and asking for refunds and hoping the devs burn in hell next to Ramsay Bolton; Overwatch from Blizzard has done it. They have opened the gates, and armies of the willing are heading to fight each other in gorgeously rendered arenas, great characters, with an amazing story to fuel them–something Blizzard does well. I have experienced zero issues so far, and I plan to keep playing well into the night.
The launch for Overwatch has been smooth so far. So smooth in fact, the only hiccup we’ve seen so far is the wait to actually buy the game digitally. Which is a good thing! Blizzard may be lacking in their World of Warcraft content until August, but they have surely made it up to their fans with Overwatch, Heroes of the Storm, and Hearthstone.
Blizzard I give you a 10/10 on your Overwatch release, take note and do well in August and hopefully you’ll regain those lost subscription numbers.
