So, let me see if I’ve got this straight.

When Overwatch 2 launched last October, it was framed by Blizzard as a PvP-only early access preview of a game which would eventually include a substantial PvE campaign, to be added in a later patch.

Today, Blizzard’s representatives admitted not only that the PvE campaign mode has been scrapped, but that the internal decision to do so was made in late 2021 – meaning they’d been knowingly lying about the game’s planned feature set for nearly a year at the time of the October 2022 early access launch.

Is that about the size of it?

you know, theres a word for getting people to invest in something based on saying something you know to be a lie
