I still don't understand why the community has been so tolerant of blizz forcing a sequel so they can directly charge money for skins.
Feels worth noting that the Pve was always planned on being a paid module for Ow2, but now it looks like they're making us pay per mission which is just absurdly greedy, Holy fuck.
OW2 came with some genuinely good gameplay changes (depending on who you ask. The topic of 5v5 is contentious at best.) that made the game feel legitimately fresh. Could it have been a "2.0" patch/expansion instead of being presented as a sequel? Probably. But skins are optional as always because the real meat of the game was the gameplay since the start.
