I like Yahtzee, but that's pretty stupid. No, I don't think Blizzard expects anyone to unlock 100% of every character. You don't even need to unlock 100% of the stuff for every character, just one the skin, victory pose, heroic intro, etc. that you want. The loot system is designed so you get random crap, and eventually get enough coins to buy whatever you want. I'm in the 60s now and I have three orange skins from boxes, another from coins (gotta have that imp Mercy), and a few purple skins I've found or bought with coins for pretty much every character I use regularly.

overwatch has (as of now) the most generous loot system in a f2p game. a new player is showered with loot boxes, and even when prestiged (lv 100), you can still expect one box every few hours. boxes are dropped based on game time, wins and being in a party instead of random chance. the drop rates are also very good. there's supposed to be a 2% chance to get a legendary, but I've gotten 3 so far from just boxes and bought 2 more with spare coin.

Why anyone would buy a game - an FPS, no less - on a console when it's available on PC is completely beyond me.

You have windows 10 and drivers trouble with this game ? Oddly this is one of the rare game with no drivers crashes ever. Really polished and well thought AAA game, so far rpg of the year . Beats fallout 4 by a large margin, or even codex classics like alpha protocol.

competetive overwatch feels like getting your soul dipped into a vat of battery acid.

Every game i've had has been a total stomp because of leavers or ragequitters. even winning isn't satisfying. people were a lot friendlier yesterday, but today it's nothing but flaming and whining.

I know you get banned from competitive for leaving too often, hopefully the threshold for that isn't very high and people are forced to stop because of that.

My placement matches went pretty well, there were only two where my team didn't communicate or counterpick that felt like quick play games. I did have someone leave in one match but we were getting stomped in that game anyway.

I hope so too, and people using shitty internet as an excuse for getting disconnects; get the fuck out of competitive, thanks.

Is there any reason to play brawl other than for hijinks? I haven't touched the mode yet.

Apparently you get bonus xp for the brawl the first time you play them each week.
