Got your pictures mixed there.

After retyping my response 3 times, I finally realized that this is bait.

well the price is fine if us or eu, but for me canadian is ridiculous 39usd is 52cdn for me... no way I'm buying origins for 80$

What makes a game a free to play game if it isn't free?

Its ok when blizzard does it .

Blizzdrones will eat anything blizzard shits on their plate.

The gameplay feels like it should be free to play is what he or she means.

What makes gameplay feel like free to play?

Ask the OP.

????????? why would it need to be free?
I'm happy that f2p shitters and children simply can't ruin this.

Just put this on op or dont even open a new thread jesus

Even the Japanese aren't sure about this game.

I got Yeti mei and the black and red D.va, as well as safari winston just by playing

You need better luck faggot

We would we give a crap about Japanese and what they think?

why*

>shooter game
>wants to play dress up

TF2 going free brought this kind of cancer

>The Japanese have much more superior taste than us shitty Americans

>Caring about the Japs

>us shitty Americans
>us Americans
Speak for yourself, burger

>fuck off kirby
>go back to X

Just like us, the japanese have to deal with incessant shitposting from people that just go into threads to post their negativity and barely do much else let alone play video games

Thanks for the reminder

Are there people really dumb enough to be glad Overwatch is behind a paywall? It's multiplayer only. There are so many basic reasons why this could have been a catastrophic failure because of that paywall. If this were any company besides Blizzard, Overwatch would already be dead. Their stocks dropped when they announced the game would be pay to play.

There's this thing called "network utility". It's like: if I buy a fax machine but I'm the only one who owns a fax machine, I can't fax anybody else. A fax machine only has purpose if everybody owns one. Likewise, Overwatch only has value if other people also own Overwatch. If the multiplayer only game didn't have a ton of players, it would have no value.

It's a miracle of human stupidity that this game has had such marketing success, but being glad the game is behind a paywall is like rooting for it to fail. Blizzard must have dumped obscene amounts of money into advertising to ensure it didn't fail thanks to what would be a rash decision by any other company.

None of those translations are accurate

>thinking the translations are real

Japs are perverted autists and they need another bomb dropped on them.

Someone show them this. They deserve to see it.

you obviously didn't play enough f2p games to know how much the community/players are shit compared to games with a paywall.

I prefer less but good players, even if it means the game won live up for years. But hell, its not like news games are stopping to come out now or something.

won't*

Not buying this flavor of the month game, but you missed this line OP..
>keeping out all the third and second world degenerates (russian/slav, south americans, etc).

They are always made up in these pictures. I've never seen an actually translated one.

>Why can't Americans make Japanese characters who aren't ninjas/yakuza?

Gee I dunno Japan, maybe because your everyday life consists of having fun in high school, studying to get into college, struggling in college, then becoming a salaryman and sleeping in your cubicle until you die of old age.

Real life is boring as shit, that's why we play video games.

Well said.

Bro the paywall keeps out a whole lot of retards

40 bucks is nothing to me and im sorry its too much for you, but f2p games are generally games i hate because of the community.

That, and fucking brazilians. League in particular before the server expansion was hell on earth because of Brazilian players. Team fortress 2 was great until it went f2p.

I hope blizz never takes the paywall down

Relax Miguel. You just keep working that shoe factory for some months, then you can play the game too.

Oh fuck off with this argument. I can't imagine how anyone could be such a mix of hopelessly misanthropic yet still wide-eyed and idealistic. What retarded, sweet, summer child really thinks a paywall ensures the average players are going to be smarter and more dedicated? We're talking about people who impulsively bought pre-ordered a title from a company that has botched and casualized virtually all of their major IP. A company that barely listens to fans and often has the audacity to tell them what they do and do not want.

You are not experiencing a smarter or better player group thanks to the paywall. You are only experiences a reduced player group.

I agree that Blizzard is a shit company, but overall the player group ARE still smarter, with the lack of third/second world players.

You are so stupid if you believe this. It's such a dumb thing to say, that you are essentially proving the point that retarded people are already playing Overwatch.

I've played enough of both (f2p/pay) to know this isn't true. Just read other user post about similar games that went to shit the moment they became f2p.

its not about the money, its about moneys worth,

you are paying for nothing, 0 content, ow is a wanabe "competitive" casual game, and it doesnt even have RANKED games...

fucking ultra retarded bullshit

>Make a PC shooter
>Don't allow private servers

Hes right though, if team fortress 2 is anything to go by.

The game still had stupid players, but things got considerably worse after it went f2p. You can try to deny it but that just tells me you didnt play it often or played with a niche group.

Can confirm those translations are completely made up.

All F2P games are fucking garbage that requires you to pump in a lot more money than a normally priced game. That is unless you want to grind endlessly like some Indian chimp working at a code farm.

Okay. Prove me wrong user. All you said was that Im stupid, which as you may not know doesnt actually prove anything

You get more hackers because they have less invested in a lost account, but that's about it.

You aren't getting smarter or better players. You aren't even eliminating all the hackers - you're just eliminating some of the hackers. Clearly the impulsive dumbshits who would STILL pre-order a Blizzard game are not a higher caliber of gamer.

>you are paying for nothing
i'm playing games with a full team of friends and having fun, how is that nothing?
>b-but user, this could be any game!
Maybe, but right now its Overwatch and I'm liking it

>Be piece of shit Brazilian
>Game isn't F2P
>Make thread about it
>????

>You aren't getting smarter or better players.
At the very least we aren't getting children in our groups.

Youre missing the point. Its simply the fact that the more a games population goes up the more retards you get, and f2p games have that exact problem.

Seriously though, keep denying it. Youre wrong, but keep on trucking.

For keeping out BRs, cyka blat shitters and hackers, $40 is more than enough

It's a shame that the HUE contingent of this board can't cope because they can only afford to play GunZ

I'm so glad Ivan and Julio wont be joining my games any time soon. Thanks Blizzard.

How can you make a free to play game that you sell?

the best part is that most of the time, people are crying about something not being f2p. But then, the very same board is giving shit to people from torrenting any game. So what the FUCK do people want?

Yes you absolutely are. Jesus Christ, user.

No, you're generally going to get the same number of children and retards. It's just that your retards had $40 of disposable income. Having $40 does not separate the intelligent from the stupid, or else the stupid couldn't afford to buy groceries. For all you know you're playing Overwatch with Clive "Let's Do the Titanic Again" Palmer.

I'm almost tempted to buy the game just because Blizzard takes a big fat shit on slavs and south americans.

Team Fortress 2 is WAY better than this unbalanced piece of shit without the retail price.

>all these poorfag tears

Uh no dude. You really arent going to get the same amount of people. I cant believe youre trying to argue this. Am i being rused?

If the game goes f2p, the games population will undoubtedly EXPLODE, and with that comes in a whole new influx of morons. The old ones arent exactly going anywhere.

Please stop being dense. Seriously i get that youre buttmad but you really arent thinking clearly at all.

Are you posting from 2005? TF2 is garbage now in 2016.

As an avid former TF2 player, I don't know where all these posts supporting it are coming from. The game is dead. Valve jewed it to death. Let go

You do realise that they are still on your server. The game is shipped cheaper in their countries you imbecile. Ignorance is bliss .

You really want to play that game?

TS2:
>16 players max with a lan configuration
>125 characters available with the 3/4 unlockable
> 15 multiplayer game modes
> 12+ maps
Sold $60 at release

TF2:
>9 characters with at least 3-4 different meaningful loadouts for each one for the characters to be played differently
>7 game modes
>20+ maps
>Achievements unlock new weapons that open the gameplay
>Excellent skill ceiling
Sold $40 with the orange box including HL2 and Portal at release, could be bought for $20 independently before eventually going F2P.

Overwatch:
>2 game modes: attack/defense and payload
>21 characters, most being halves of TF2 characters.
>13 maps
>Nothing to unlock with skill but a few tags.
>Personalisation relies on boxes looted with the grind or that can be bought for $1
Sold $40 at release but still blizzard hides the $40 option to trick the average consumer.

What a time to be alive.

I am level 28 and enjoying every second even if none wants to play support or tanks and I have to fill that role 80% of the time. I totally get the criticisms of selling a game that still has a cash shop in it and hope that this doesn't become standard in future games.

>Because your change to get a good skin without cash shop is like 0.
i got legendary skin i like from free box below 20.
You are just a sad faggot

Not in the amounts they would be if the game was free numbnuts

Only thing ill argue with you over is the "hiding" thing.

It was the first option in my battle.net

>point this out
>normies for fucking apeshit defending it
i just said it was a flaw, the game is still good you fucking retarded morons

Vanilla tf2 didn't have loadout, came with 6 maps

>buy game from retail store (kmart)
>go home, redeem codes
>package the game back together like how when I purchased it
>return it back to retail store (kmart)

I have no idea why you guys don't take advantage of this shit. even moreso as the fact that most retail stores have their seasonal hires on and you can return back even broken shit.

I'm very glad I justfully got a game that should have been f2p from the get go as free

>skill ceiling
the biggest video game meme of all time. People should play games to have fun, not to master some gamer-esque art of digital dominance.
t . casual player who likes fun

> Comparing TF2 after years and years of updates, to Overwatch on launch
I don't even like Overwatch, and have no plans to buy it, but why do people keep doing this? Is it stupidity, or intentional baiting?

you'r lucky because no store will do that here since they KNOW what redeem codes are.

Why do no games do this any more? It literally costs the developers nothing.

>caring about cosmetics

vanilla tf2 didn't really have enough content to be released as a standalone title

Or on the other hand, you have to be the kind of easily confused sucker who falls for big marketing campaigns if you pre-ordered a Blizzard game, meaning that the game would, by percentage, have less retards if it were free, since you'd have to be retarded to pre-order a game from a company with such a shaky reputation.

>I'll only play for fun
Except Blizzard has a system implemented that tries to force you to play with players at your skill level, meaning that it'll keep pitting you against better players who force you to inevitably learn whatever cheese and meta is prominent in a game you want to play casually. You'll either have to get competitive or accept losing tons of games all the time to keep your rank low.

>work at retail store
>some diferent shitter try that tricks at the very least once per two days
>it is my personnal pleasure to take it on me to tell him no, and explain why not
>even other colleagues ask me to deal with this shit now
>I can't stop having a huge fucking grin on my face near the end when they realize nothing they say will make me change my mind. Store policy is backing me anyways so its a no-win for them
I love this shit so much. They even come with their parents sometimes and explaining to them just to see them turn their anger against their kid mid-conversation is giving me the hardest of customer service boner.

fuck you're mom dude, be a good bro for homie and let me return this shit game that should have been f2p

>all these people comparing OW with TF2
Sure TF2 has more content and maps now, but how much did it have when it first released?

>Except Blizzard has a system implemented that tries to force you to play with players at your skill level
That perfectly fine. What I meant was that comparing skill levels between games seems useless. Each game got its own skill ceiling, and so if you're really into competitive things, you will find yourself at the top anyways with other players like yourself. So really, it becomes more of the same.

>please let me steal money from your store

user, you are literally trying to argue that the game only has retards in it right now because you perceive people that bought the game to be sheep that are just doing what they were told. Do you not understand where the flaws in your logic are? How old are you, where are you currently residing, and how many f2p games have you played? I cant believe that I am replying to you at this point because holy shit dude you are seriously grasping at straws.

The bottom line is outlined in the last post of mine you replied to and I am not going to reiterate. You dont know what youre saying, user.

bro, it's not even your game, man
they're still paying you and shit regardless

>be a poorfag tf2 player
>cry about it on Sup Forums

No idea what TS2 is so I'll skip that. Tf2 has had less on release then OVerwatch does right now so shut the fuck up. THANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

DELETE THIS

>No idea what TS2 is

after reading that it sounds like Koreans are like the niggers of Japan.

>children
>not playing overwatch

Am i blind in not seeing this game marketing to children in the first reveal or are blizzdrones so delusional to realize that the first trailer of this game had some kids visiting a museum.

Or the daily nostalgia threads about playing a blizzard mmo when you were young.

Or the fact that xboxkids are a thing.

Youre fucking retarded not to think every childs not gonna ask for overwatch.

>gamergaters are the same retards that pay full price for mass marketed shitty multiplayer shooters, but pirate actual good games

Explains a lot

>level nine
>already got the best epic Mercy skin

I just like the image.
