    If a game is able to get 1000 hours of engagement isn’t it actually pretty good? I don’t have a game I’ve put that many hours into.

    Did something drastically change X hours into Overwatch 2 that changed it from a game that could be played for that many hours into a not recommend?

      You can lose 1000h to heroin too and I’m sure many recovering addicts wouldn’t give it a good review.

      What changed was when I realized the experience for non-battle pass holders when I finally ran out of coins to buy it since I got a load by preordering and earned a few coins playing with the battle pass.

      Without it, the game is a grind with little reward and skins can be €20. And when others have the latest hero that you have to grind for a month playing several hours a day to get, it’s incredibly predatory.
