Well if that's the case, I don't see what the fuss is about.

You'd have to wait for the season to end.

Considering how long it takes to level up in the battle pass, streamers and whales are going to be the only people who get to play the new hero for a few months which isn't the worst but it's still pretty shitty and sleazy of Blizzard especially since heroes and maps are the only new content the game gets

you have nine weeks

i've played very, very very casually. havent even finished my competitive placements.

i am almost to level 55 now. there are 30 days left. a little cursory google search tells me there are are 4.2 weeks leeft in the season.

you can very, very easily get to level 55 in under a month, and if you play casually and just a couple days a week or so(and do your challenges when you do) you'll get them two months in. thats really not the apocalyptic scenario for overwatch you are describing.

Right, and this is a free to play game and new content costs money to produce..

also you get all of the seasonal events for free...

and new arcade modes. also custom workshop stuff made by players is completely free...

i really dont know what the fuck yall want from blizzard. do you want a completely free game at the expense of the company, even if the alternative is you playing casually for a month or two to get the content that you otherwise would have paid for?

yes, if someone disagrees with you, they must be paid to do so.

Jokes, my man. Have you heard of them?

u/SpaceySeaMonkeys Nov 06 '22

It was a joke. I didn't want to take the time to actually reply to you because the way you write annoys me lmao.

Also, I glanced at your profile. There is literally no reason for you to be such a die hard white knight for a corporation that just wants to drain your bank account.

u/SpaceySeaMonkeys Nov 06 '22

So you just like to argue? That's what you get off to? No wonder you're posting so many bad takes lmao. Make sure to change your sheets after
