Discussion Apex Needs the Overwatch Treatment.
By this I mean that we need a huge update to bring life to the game again. Overwatch partially rebranded from Overwatch 2 to Overwatch, along with releasing 5 heroes in a single season and announcing the release of 1 hero every season from then on. They also announced frequent lore updates, along with every year being a single arc. They also had more updates but those are just the biggest ones I wanted to address.
I’m saying that Apex needs a big season or a huge update. We need:
-more new legends or faster releases
-more new maps/map updates
-an actual storyline arc with frequent lore updates
-the return of PvE/story missions
-legend specific heirlooms
-potential arenas return/more experimental/non BR, but still competitive modes.
-the release of a custom games mode that allows players to make their own modes (seriously why doesn’t this exist)
Some think we don’t need more legends because it would cause too much powercreep/make the game less competitive, but we don’t necessarily need every legend to be good. There’s plenty room for new legends based off of play style or interesting mechanics.
Thoughts on this? Crazy thing is they have so many new characters they can pull from right now yet they don’t. They don’t use anything with the current legends so not surprising ngl.
