And yes as expected you don’t need bnet installed to play, just need to link your Steam and Blizzard accounts.
From briefly giving it another shot after quitting it 3 months into the mess that is - IMO - Overwatch 2, I am not only confused by the sheer avalanche of bars, popups and numbers and progressions that emulate an actual meaningful system or at least try to, but I can also say that sadly, not much has changed for the better.
Two more support heroes is good and they’re both very well made in graphics and sound. Balance is still utterly all over the place and still reels from the removal of the second tank and a lack of a full-game rebalancing effort to accomodate such a sweeping change.
Ah well, still. Nice to see one less launcher. Hopefully their other games all come to Steam and ideally other sites, too.
Oh wow I hadn’t played the new patch yet I thought op was talking about the larger number of XP achievements added in previous patches I hadn’t seen the new hero leveling thing yet.
