Overwatch 2 Wishlist: 10 Things Fans Need To See
9. Character Balancing
Of course, character balancing is a huge part of any multiplayer game – even cooperative ones. Let's face it – nobody wants to play as the underpowered character when your friends are constantly getting Play of the Game and medals aplenty each round.
Since part of OW2's promise is new aspects for the PvP, as well, this is doubly important and difficult. Now each new character added to the roster, as well as all the old favorites, need to have PvP and PvE attributes finely tuned.
This becomes especially important when you consider that half the community wants the PvE character skills being introduced into OW2 to be brought into the PvP modes. Balancing a Hanzo that can kill a whole team with a single arrow or a Genji that can straight up throw Guile's Sonic Boom when he's mid-ult would be a very tough tightrope to walk.
