Overwatch beta review



I finally had a chance to play the Overwatch beta and it was great! The game has 21 amazing characters, all with different abilities. So lets start from the beginning. When you install the game you can play the tutorial, which tells you how to use abilities and more. Once you finish it you can start paying in public matches or play against the AI. The first thing that you notice when you get to character screen, on the right side there is tips that will pop up and tell you what you have too much of, what you need and what you don't need. An example is that in one of the matches we had 4 snipers and then the rest is offense. On the side it would tell you that you have too much snipers and you need more defense. That is VERY helpful as this game makes you have to work together to win. There is also difficulties for each character. Some characters are a bit harder to use, while some are extremely easy. Once you pick your character, the game starts and you start killing and capturing or escorting your objective. Now there was a problem...some characters have A LOT more health than others. I do think that some characters need to either have higher health or the big guys get some of there health reduced a bit. Otherwise, the game is balanced well, the maps are visually amazing to look at and was fun to play! The controls are simple and the character animations and voices are great! This game has the potential to be very successful! If you haven't played the beta yet, you should definitely go on your PC or Console and download it right away! Installing the game does take a while though, but while you wait, you can go to the training facility and play the characters as they download! My rating for the Overwatch beta is a 9/10! It's great, but the characters health needs to be balanced out more. Thanks for reading!
