I was on the same boat as you forever. I came back to ow2 late last year. I'll say this. OW feels better than it ever has. Very balanced and very fair, while maintaining that very chaotic and energized feeling. They added tiered perks which really break up the monotony of the game, and also brought back loot boxes.

It feels like they realized the game became stagnant, and they're doing as much as they can to bring it back to peak, and past that.

They also are bringing back 'classic overwatch", and I'll say this... After you play classic and go back to regular you can feel the difference. The only thing I miss is 6v6 but it seems like that's coming back soon too

6v6 is already back, in open queue format
