We all know loot boxes are terrible but a battle pass doesn't feel any more rewarding.
. They've even been banned in some regions. Recent studies have reported that even with the majority of players spending money in a safe way, 9.4% of the selected group did have indicators of. And now I've professed my support for loot boxes being eliminated from lots of games, I'm going to have to admit I really miss them in Overwatch.
There are a few new things that Overwatch players didn't have before, like the weapon charms, but seeing a little pin stuck into the hand of some players is kind of off putting. Poor Sigma, it's shoved into the side of his hand. Souvenirs are also new but work a lot like victory poses at the end of a game, so they're not too exciting either. Character skins are what Overwatch is known for doingI see a skin and I know they just paid for the pass.
Even though my other go-to hero shooter, Valorant, makes you outright pay for skins outside the battle pass, it feels worse here. I think it's because in Overwatch the things you own aren't sharable. In Valorant, you can play with other skins you find on the ground in-game or as you wait for a round to start, swapping your gun with someone else's. You can play with so many different skins just by playing the game. Overwatch is way more static than that.
