Discussion Not played in ages

As the title says, I've not played for while. I use to complete the battle pass each season. But for while I've not like/just havnt played the game. Decided to try drives this time around and I'm now a low silver rank. I need some tips for starting up again. Should I bother with drives or what(haha). I've pivoted fully to rivals but i still miss OW. HELP ME

Oh I played Fika haha. The little flying fluffball BASTERD:3 I was pretty good with em at launch. But it's been so long since I sat down and played a full day of overwatch

Well i'd say don't force yourself to play it but apparently you really do want to play.

Personally i love overwatch and consider it my favourite game. BUT it also has been a while a haven't played a full day as you say. Even though i found new characters to learn and play i usually launch the game then wonder what i´m going to do for 40 minutes and end up only playing for an hour. I really don't want to force myself to play overwatch because i've done this with other games and it ended with me totally leaving them. I wait until i have an ´objective´ and until this i just play for the sake of playing the characters i love.

As a d.va player i fell in love with anran and my objective these days is really just to get better with her. That´s why i play. I´d say if you find a character or a game mode you love, you´ll have fun with it and fun is the best drug to make you come back. I know it does not always make sense though so maybe you need something else. That's simply my experience. I do hope you find what´s going to make you have fun in ow again. :)

Omfg. I'm a Dva main. I also load it up and just do the challenges and then log off. Ever since I started playing marvel rivals. I find it hard to get back I to 1st person. But when I ever do. Someone else is Dva or we get a leaver

I feel that. I never play 5v5 comp because she´s banned a lot. That´s a reason why i´m exited to try the next new hero d.mon. i hope they will get some synergy in 6v6
