The Overwatch panel was barren at Blizzcon.

People took one look at it and went nope.

Really the most effort one was the Diablo 3 one and that just has a small team working on it. Everything else was terrible.

The origins one? It was pretty full for a panel. Less than the live raid right before it but cetainly more than the SC2 panel after it. Most of the people interested in Overwatch were probably in line to play it. That line was 1.) long as gently caress 2.) fast moving as gently caress. It like overlapped itself and zig zagged like 10 times and then when all the way around the directv area and back around to the exit of Overwatch then zigzaged back to the enterance. But even at it's craziest it was still only around a 20-30 minute wait.

Some of the girls are sexied up a bit much, but they're pushing a dame as the headliner character, so it's a good move.

But then we also have inflatabutt, which is too smooth and supple an animation to have been an accident.

Or it's because skin tight future suit makes her super thin, but when she gets ready to snipe she lets it out so that she doesn't feel so tight down there, much more comfortable.

If this was actually just Blizzard trying to copy TF2, that would be totally fine. Except they aren't copying TF2 beyond aesthetics of the class builds.

This game seems to almost entirely be built around those superpowers each of the characters have. That wouldn't be a problem if it was done right but the way it looks to me just... I don't know how to describe it beyond it looks really drat MOBA-like.

From the gameplay videos I've seen it looks like your team constantly pushes toward the enemy base dying and/or retreating while doing so and occasionally using such-and-such skills to help with that push.

What makes TF2 fun is that it's an extremely fast and extremely versatile first person shooter that depends almost entirely on how well you use your class in conjunction with your teammates' strategy and not how much you can whittle the opposition down one at a time in order to gain ground like MOBAs generally do. Also, while it did take some time, TF2's classes are pretty drat well-balanced to the point where it's easy to get into playing as any one of their classes. Something tells me Overwatch won't be as well-balanced.

tl;dr: this game is probably going to be too MOBA-like for me.

if they manage to allow for ability use AND balance the game out without making it feel like a moba then you can call me a lame idiot all you want. otherwise, it still looks like it plays like a moba in first person.

only thing that looks appealing to me about Overwatch so far is more vertical mobility like with the grappling hook. And I will admit Tracer's teleport power looks pretty cool.

I'll still try the game out to see how it plays for myself, but I'm not really going in with high expectations based on the gameplay vids I've seen.
