There’s an even larger metajoke in this video: this whole video is mostly recycled and lightly updated from his earlier “[Overwatch 2 a Pathetic Preview](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_0PSZ2S_yw)” video, down to the structure and punchlines and music and even the runtime.
Is it meant to be a joke that the three old hereos he brings up being changed, Roadhog, Mei, and Doomfist, were three of the most hated heroes in OW because of their CC kill abilities?
Everytihng about OW2’s monitization and UI is terrible but the actual gameplay changes are great. I have no frickin clue what he’s talking about with Roadhog’s hooks, they’re just as powerful as always they literally haven’t been changed. Doomfist has been neutered into oblivion, but he was annoying as shit before and he’ll probably be buffed again.
This is not a defense of OW2 as he’s right in that it doesn’t deserve to be called a sequel and the monetization practices suck. But anyone that still complains about role queue didn’t play the game seriously back before it was implemented. Back when all modes were open queue, if you queued solo you were lucky if the randoms on your team picked a half decent comp. The vast majority of games you were stuck with 5 stubborn people wanting to play their favorite dps until the people who actually cared about winning swapped to a role the team desperately needed but they didn’t like.
With role queue, you’re guaranteed to always play the role you want and are comfortable on. And if you are the type of person that wants to role swap throughout the game, they literally added back the original mode as it’s own separate queue years ago.
Probably an unpopular opinion, but I frankly don’t care if they rebranded the game as a sequel when it’s just a big ass rebalance patch. 5v5 meta is crazy different than 6v6. Removing a tank and a shield is a night and day difference for how fights play out. The game is better in some ways, but fights tip quickly when someone gets eliminated which can be frustrating if you’re losing.
As an OW1 player I don’t feel any new monetization pains yet. In fact, the game is so far free to play with all the content right now for me. That may change and my view may sour if I choose not to invest a dime and miss out on things.
I can see where people might be disappointed by what they got vs. what was “promised” but I’m enjoying a game that delivers what I’m looking for.
Complaining about bastion being gone (temporarily for a bug) because he “counters” tanks is all you need to know about his POV on the meta and how the game works
The whole reason the game exists was they needed something to distract from the bad press they were getting about firing those guys over the Hong Kong thing. That long-haired, fat weirdo came out and said stuff about a “heated gamer moment” and then literally pull keys out of his pocket and started shaking them around. “Look! Overwatch 2! New products to enjoy!” and their dumb audience ate it up.
I spent that entire video of Dunky’s wondering why he was showing footage from the first Overwatch game before it occurred to me that it wasn’t. Yeah.
Jeez, you can really hear the disappointment in his voice even through the jokes. I think a lot of people meme’d on this game just because it’s not actually a new game and is so clearly a desperate cash grab, but Dunkey seemed like he genuinely wanted it to be good.
I don’t understand what’s fun about FPS games where the targets all stand 2 metres away from each other soaking up bullets while shooting. Where is the fun in that? It’s like a kids birthday party, absolute bright coloured garbage.
The gaming industry has the worst set of publishers it’s ever had, these companies are absolutely devoid of innovation and good design.
I loved Over Watch 1, and have watched it get worse and worse until now. Over Watch 2 is just another sloppy half-assed money grab like the 40 other free-to-play shooters that have come out recently.
No one shits on bad games better than the dunks

Damn RIP Valorant
Dunkey was a huge fan of OW1, so this video is actually made out of passion and frustration.

I’m in the minority I guess but I don’t care about skins at all. I don’t need shiny medals and my UI lighting up to help me enjoy a game.
If you ignore all the fluff, the game is super solid. 5v5 was a fantastic change
Server issues and breaking stuff with each patch are pretty bad though
Not a sequel.
Unexpected Winny Peters cameo.
i’ve never heard a free to play transition being called a sequel before?
Whats with Dunkey’s hate for Valorant? Lol
Interesting

Dunky is so out of touch with what gamers want. We want blatant Cash grabs.

Overwatch 2 feels like overwatch 1 but on mlm mobile phones. Genji is so small
This guy is nitpicky and biased I win bye bye
He is not wrong. Also Valorant is utter garbage that needs to die already.
Calling the game overwatch 2 is an insult to game devs actually making sequels, 0 effort max mobile grind 😔

It’s not a sequel, it’s a F2P version of OW1 with 5 vs 5
