I'll be honest. The fact it wasn't on steam never entered my head when deciding not to purchase this one

Good, I can go hit ignore right now and never see it again

Aw, man, does ignore actually work for you? Because I see shit I've ignored on my store page all the damn time.

[–] HidingCat@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Definitely does. A bit too well even sometimes. I block genres I usually am not interested in but that means games that feature some element of them that I might like in small doses also gets blocked. eg Stray, which has stealth gameplay, but has been pretty fun so far.

I haven't had an issue with it, myself, but I also haven't been paying too much attention to it

It's not worth it.

Only way this pays off is if it doesn't require the blizzard launcher, and it works with Linux/proton. Otherwise, I will continue playing my copy of Diablo 2 and Path of Exile.

Probably will not have launcher since overwatch 2 doesnt have blizzard launcher

Please don't give Bobby Kotick any more of your money.

Blizzard games finally coming to Steam does make me smile a bit
