Overwatch 2 killed Overwatch. You cannot play the original game

Overwatch 2 is 5 vs 5, the first one was 6 vs 6.
Some heroes from the first game were not in the sequel
Some changes of roles and mechanics
blah, blah, blah

With this I want to say If you liked the first game Blizzard made sure you could not continue playing it, that made people angry

The game felt more like an update instead like a full fledged sequel

The game is way more predatory with its microtransactions and battle passes than the first one, that also made people angry and the fact that they made the first game unplayable added salt to the injury

Blizzard made a lot of promises about single player content... that was later cancelled, that also made people who were into Overwatch 2 angry

They made a lot of people angry...
