I haven't actually played ow2 after a few tens to the low hundreds of hours I played in ow1. Is it true that they're locking characters behind battle passes now?
Miserable game design for something that is trying to get players to come back every few months for content releases. "You can't play the new hero until you grind for it until you burn out or pay" is just not a compelling pitch to get people to resume playing your game.
It's only going to get worse over time as the proportion of premium characters grows... ๐
