Dead hype is the best hype. Because people expect to much and are let down on the other hand Blizzard actually made hyping up Warlords of Dreanor work. I would say next Blizzcon will be the next time we get more information and an estimation for a possible Beta. Actually the Overwatch gameplay trailer ends saying: Beta 2015. Thought I think you're right in that some people conflated the 'Early 2015' HotS beta with Overwatch's beta. | ||

I love the whole arcade team class based FPS thing, infact my number 1 favourite FPS happended to be RTCW:ET which also is a team class based FPS I played that game for like 5 years everyday, both of these games are the only kind I can think of which are in this catergory, and they are like what, 10-15 years old? Blizzard obviously saw a gap in the market for a game like this and they going to take advantage of it and I don't blame them, they are amazing games, don't care if they taking idea's from TF2 it'll be well worth it, better graphics, new classes, new mechanics and I'm exited. Looking forward to this. | ||

Maybe they'll even put in a female character whose waist is more than half the width of her shoulders. + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/cF3eZ62.jpg) Now let's see if they a) check "Diversity" off of their "to do" list or b) actually try to make more characters with atypical backgrounds and body types. But hey, good job Blizzard. | ||

Blizzard was the reason that I got into hack-and-slash RPGs with Diablo. Blizzard was the reason that I got into MOBAs with Heroes of the Storm. Might Blizzard be the reason that I start to play FPS games? The gameplay and cinematic trailers look awesome! | ||

All of that is the same with me except for MOBA, Blizzard was the reason that I got into MOBAs because of a custom game called dota on wc3  (now I'm just waiting for someone to create wc4 on the dota2 custom games so the dota/warcraft cycle can come full circle ha ha)I haven't gotten into FPS games too much but I will definitely be trying Overwatch out | ||

I think the answer is pretty obvious Honestly though, my only worry about this game is depth of content. Obviously the variety of characters will give the game plenty of depth for players to explore, but if competitive death match, zone control, ctf etc are the only game modes I don't know how long it will keep my attention. I hope there is some stuff like the old-school assault maps I used to play in original Unreal Tournament or something. Overall super optimistic though! | ||

So maybe if the team gets big enough they can add that in since their first priority is 3-4 week heroes I guess. | ||

Gauntlet / Gauntlet Legends / Gauntlet Legends Dark Legacy Best hack and slash before Diablo. But you may not remember or took advantage of quarter arcade machines playing those like me and alot of others did. | ||
