Breaking my silence to share a fun fact: when we planned OW2’s steam launch, my team warned (months in advance) that we’re going to be review bombed. We begged for more information, more details... (twitter.com)

I honestly and genuinely think the swap to 1 tank actually does make it unfun way more pressure on both tank and supports to do their job means you are complained at even more by DPS, obviously that makes you want to avoid the roles and so you play DPS and now you are even more keenly aware of how easy it is to be play DPS and get away with bad plays. So now you have an even worse abundance of DPS and a worse experience for the two roles you wanted to entice. I went from Mainly playing Tank and secondary support and no ranked DPS in OW1 to DPS mainly with secondary support and no tank play and even though I feel worse at DPS, I felt like the game pushed me to play it.

Obviously as Tank you feel like you have no support and as support you feel you have no tank. Which is entirely just feeling worse to play then OW1. I supported no dupe characters, and I supported Role Queue. 5 Man team I don't support and won't go back unless it reintroduced.
