Overwatch Retrospective: Then vs Now

We may have started this podcast as an excuse to revisit retro games, but one game has loomed over our conversations almost every single month: Overwatch. With Overwatch 2 entering our lives a few months ago, we've had plenty of time to let the changes sink in, and reminisce over some of the elements of Overwatch 1 which we find ourselves missing. Given the prominence of Overwatch in our lives, we wanted to spend a full episode at the end of the year looking back on the game we've been dumping countless hours into since 2016. How does Overwatch 2 compare to Overwatch 1? What are some of the changes we like or dislike the most? How much longer do we imagine we'll play this game? Let us know your thoughts, and Happy New Year!
