Hero worship
Does the beta for Blizzard's latest hold up? You bet it does. We took Overwatch for a marathon two hour spin on our YouTube channel last night, and you can re-watch all of the action courtesy of the video embedded above. Looks great, doesn't it?

I love the character designs in this. I never thought I'd ever hear myself say that, but it looks fantastic.
EDIT: And before anyone asks, I haven't been paid to say that.
The character designs in this game has got a Disney/Pixar feel to it which I really like. It's like Big Hero 6.
@get2sammyb Have you seen any of the mini-short-films of some of the characters on youtube? They're pretty great for what they are. The characters are much more appealing to me than those found in Battleborn
@ShadowofSparta I haven't actually, no. I'm not allowed to talk about Battleborn anymore as I was too nasty about it.
@get2sammyb I remember that whole debacle. Best avoid it haha. Anyway, here's one I enjoyed:

Anyone else been getting DISCONNECTED LC202 errors when playing? I could only play like one full match last night
Wasn't that keen at first,but I'm gonna keep an eye out for this.
meh.
I've played some of the early beta. The game runs nice and is a real blast to play.
I so want this game man! It will make me stop play League so much xD
It's a shame it's not F2P thou, cause I like unlocking all heroes like i did in LoL and I like to spend some money on cosmetic skins...
@irken004 I was playing last night for a few hours, and the only time I had problems is when I didn't have enough people on my team In the middle of the match and got booted back to the lobby.
I am really loving this game. The graphics are gorgeous, it's easy to pick up and play and it's just so addicting.
If anyone is interested the beta opens up for everyone tomorrow regardless if you preordered or not.
@irken004 No, but the game application did closed twice on its own while I was playing.
@Tasuki
Is it really that good? I'm interested, but I was planning on investing my time in Doom.
@sub12 I will say, I didn't expect it to be as good as it is. I went in not expecting too much and was surprised. The variety of modes they have and the amount of stuff you unlock is nice. Characters have a variety from easy to use charcters to ones that take a bit to master. Four different roles (Tank, offense, defense and healer) to add variety so even if you aren't good at shooting, you can try a healer.
The beta will be free for all tomorrow for all try it for yourself.
I wished enjoyed playing FPS, as this looks fun.
@get2sammyb The characters look lovely, but I miss seeing my own character while playing. "I look so good when I'm off the battlefield."
Wasn't always that fussed about this one but it does look like good fun.
@SkanetWasTaken That's a bummer. (T-T ) I've seen Tracer's movie like 5 times now, so I was hoping we would get her story.
I won't completely write it off though, since I'm enjoying Star Wars much more than I thought I would and that's only multiplayer. But I'll probably wait for a couple of price drops before buying this.
I preordered had 5 hours with the early beta and i cancelled my preorder , this game is very average, traversal is boring with certain characters it takes 30 seconds just to reach the objective, not a terrible game but a very uninspiring one.
@Utena-mobile Blizzard is planning other ways of fleshing out the story rather then in game. So far they have the videos and a Web comic should be coming soon.
@SkanetWasTaken Sweeet!! Thanks for the links.
@Grawlog It's ok, you can call me Alex if you want. Only my teachers at school called me Stinton.
