@chaser324: I think you're vastly underestimating how repetitive a multiplayer only game can get after hour 10. Since you mention Titanfall, just look what happened to it: There was so much hype around it, and the launch was fantastic, but then what? It just fell into the abyss. There was its horde mode update, and then nothing.

That's the biggest downside with Overwatch, I feel. It's fun and all that, but it's just going to get way more repetitive quicker than most, and I'm willing to bet the maps will just get funneled down into "Here's the route you take for your character or else you're doing it wrong" levels of competitiveness. There's no player-created content, no alternate weapons, and like every team based anything, your enjoyment is going to be more reliant on the people you're playing with than the game itself. But hey, at least there'll be microtransactions for some retail therapy, right?

I, for one, do not want to hedge my $40 bet on either A) Keeping my friends playing, or 2) hoping I get matched with people who are decent in both skill and manners.
