Seems about right.

Thing is, I actually like OW2's core gameplay more than OW1. I can't say it's necessarily better than OW1 would have been if they hadn't abandoned it for years to (fail to) build OW2's PVE, but so it goes.

But I reinstalled just to see if I'd want to try with the new Invasion content, and here's the thing:

I played about 5 rounds of QP. They were all horribly mismatched in terms of skill level, and I enjoyed 0 of them. So the idea of grinding through a new battle pass, although liking the RoboAna mythic skin, was a nonstarter even before talking about how crowded a launch season this is. Like even if I wanted to, I don't have time for this battle pass.

And then the new PvE content? I mean maybe it's good, but nothing about any of the PvE they've released in the past would support that. It's been consistently mediocre IMO, so I dunno why I'd suddenly want to pay for the privilege.

I'm annoyed that I have about 2000 coins I'm never going to use (love that I can't use them to buy the invasion bundle just to screw around with the new stuff), but I think it's time to give up and move on.
