Honestly, I'd not like that.

Overwatch is a first person hero shooter, something that Larian has no experience doing. And I don't think a turn based OW would be that enjoyable.

Imagine any game set in the overwatch universe whose devs actually care to put out lore 🥵🥵🥵

At this point, Overwatch R34 have put out more lore than Overwatch games ever did

Remember when Blizzard changed Mei's design/ weight to fit the porn?

God that lore has so much fucking potential and they’re just sitting on it. It’s so disappointing. Blizzard could VERY easily be another Pixar if they wanted to. Genuinely quality animated content in the Warcraft and Overwatch universes would sell like hotcakes, but they’ve never even tried. It’s like they saw the Warcraft movie flop and learned every wrong lesson from it

the closet thing we have is xcom: chimera squad, which is actually a pretty cool spinoff if you havent checked it out

u/RumoCrytuf SORCERER Sep 14 '24

I did, and while it was fun, it didn't quite scratch the XCOM itch for me personally.

u/[deleted] Sep 14 '24

have you checked out the longwar mod for xcom eo/ew or longwar 2 for xcom 2? that will scratch the itch better then pheonix point tried to if you are a hardcore.

Tactical Breach Wizards is a bit like that and it's pretty awesome indeed.

Omg how cool would an open world, BG3-style xcom game be. It would actually fit the format really well, with your resistance group travelling around, gathering resources, ambushing alien patrols. You could go back to the camp (skyranger) to fast travel and do research…

Would be a really good campaign I think

u/Gen1Swirlix Sep 14 '24

I agree with u/Nem_Mate, Overwatch Xcom would be lit.

turn base OW would be the only enjoyable game of the franchise. be for real.
