In summary of the collective internet consciousness:

That’s about what I figured. I’ll probably hunt for shinies of my favorites, level up until it’s boring, and wait for inevitable DLC.

I came down to the comments to say basically this, and you said it better than I would have. A+, no notes.

Yeah! Playing with my brother and cousin and just dicking around together was incredibly fun. Like, there’s a good game in here even with its inherent problems.

That’s impressive! I think I get bitched at more than that for playing Brigitte. Actually, I got bitched at just last night for picking Brigitte.

In her opinion it’s a waste of potential without side quests, so you’re forced to do all the gyms/bases/Titans but without the benefit of a linear path to guide you through it.

Typical press reporting both sides of an multifaceted story, amirite?

Yeah but when you get to the end of the match and Moira somehow has <2000 damage healed, you basically played without a healer.

Same, but I do recognize this as the worst performing Pokemon game I’ve played. Basically, nothing game breaking, but definitely immersion breaking and mildly annoying.

It’s the same thing all over again, but it’s getting louder.

It’s all about profit. But not in the internet “down with capitalism” way. Literally profit margins.

Pronouns. What the heck is a pronoun? I

I definitely don’t think it’s exaggerated, and the game isn’t great with its optimization. If this were a fighting game or FPS or something that required immediate reaction time, this would be unplayable. And I’ve had enough shadow pop-ins and chugging framerate drops to know that, like, this is a very legitimate…

Interestingly I’m 21hrs in and have really only encountered terrible framerate and one game crash. All the other issues I’ve seen on social media haven’t happened yet. (I say “yet” because I’m sure my game isn’t immune and it’ll happen.)

I joined my brother and cousin yesterday after they’d just started and my main pokemon team was in their lv.30s. This was my experience:

Again. Monster Hunter Rise is right there.

And that’s totally valid. I’ve come to actually prefer 5v5 over 6v6, but I prefer open queue where you can decide your team makeup, rather than the strict 1 tank 2 DPS 2 support dynamic. I should also note that I gave up on OW1 for two and a half years before coming back, so it’s kind of fresh again for me.

The core gameplay is still fun, challenging and different in every game. So, like, I like OW2. But everything outside of that core gameplay loop leaves so much to be desired. So I really hope they make substantial changes in season 3.

No he wouldn’t. She’s black, queer, female and a WNBA star. This is the man who tanked the USFL because he wanted to be in the NFL. And the majority of his base likely sees her being detained as an “own the libs” moment anyway.
