Lol. After all these years they're thinking of rolling back the 5v5 changes. To quote someone from Reddit:

PVE was dropped, heroes are free again, and now 6v6 is back. Blizzard spent the last couple of years turning overwatch 2 back into Overwatch 1.

Edit: See also the developer's blog post about this, which goes into great detail explaining their decisions over the year and how we got here. Really worth a read if you are (or were) an OW player.

Blizz really went downhill after they sold out.

I‘m pretty sure that the Overwatch 2 debacle started before blizzard was sold to MS

I‘m pretty sure that the Overwatch 2 debacle started before blizzard was sold to ~~MS~~ Activision

It was sold to Activision before it was sold to Microsoft.
