@PlayOverwatch hi! im usually not one to complain. i have been playing console overwatch since the beta in 2016. i lost the beta Widowmaker skin during the launch of ow2, which sucks but i let it go. however, i would love to understand why i do not get the 10 year player rewards?

[courtney @coruntey]

@GloomyWaifuWu @NixLupus31 @OWCavalry i fear thats the case bc i have been playing OW since the beta launch and i am a console player.

[courtney @coruntey]

@blyssfuI this tattoo is so lovely, truly, but as an artist, the missing line here is driving me absolutely crazy. im sure the artist didnt include it bc the tattoo will blur and fade overtime and itll make more sense but i feel crazy being the only one to recognize this

Here's my conversation with Jeff Kaplan, a legendary Blizzard game designer of World of Warcraft and Overwatch, which are two of the biggest, most influential games ever made. Jeff is one of the most genuine & awesome human beings I've ever met: kind, thoughtful, hilarious, and still & forever a gamer through and through.

This was a truly fun & inspiring conversation. We talk about it all: the lows, the highs, the memes, the details of the game design process, and the new game he's been secretely working on: The Legend of California. I got a chance to play the game with Jeff, and it's incredibly beautiful (and fun). You can wishlist it on Steam now. I can't wait to play it with all of you!

Conversation is here on X in full and is up everywhere else (see comment).

@joopy_will @ForeverTearss @LucasStroj @OWCavalry i made my first alt account ever to and the phone number input was optional. i was able to skip it. which really explains all the smurfs on console.

@sauchuk91006 @LeRein_James @OWCavalry controller needs some level of aim assist, bc its arguably harder to accurately aim on controller than it is on mnk. no one would ever hit a shot, because you cant be as pinpoint accurate as a PC player w a mouse. removing would not help anyone but ximmers.

[courtney @coruntey]

@basedtweetsonly @JohnDrakeAnt @OWCavalry controller is arguably more difficult to master aim with than mnk. its an absolutely necessary mechanic to refine the player's aim bc it will never be as smooth or calculated as a PC player– who can VERY easily pinpoint w a mouse. don't act like the playing field is level w/o it.
