Balance is Important

Overwatch

In an age of online gaming, everything needs to be fine tuned to near perfection, or at least a stable enough state to be called that. Social media has made it so that if there’s something wrong with a game, it’ll get called out until it’s fixed (or at the very least, addressed). Developers may not be able to catch every single problem before launch, but there’s clearly ones that make the game chaotic and not fun to play.

The worst part of a multiplayer game is when everything is unbalanced and people are exploiting bugs and glitches all willy-nilly. Overwatch has had some issues, to be sure, but Blizzard has been pretty good about stamping them out before they get too unwieldy and break the game. These days, it’s practically a miracle if a game comes out with less than 10 major problems, but this one managed to do it while also nipping its smaller scale problems in the bud with extreme prejudice.
