    Headline is a poor attempt at saying they are renaming it to just ‘Overwatch’ without the 2.

        That the game “overwatch 2” is just a re-hash of the original “overwatch” game - not that it was renamed to be “overwatch”

        I also had a hard time reading the post title, still think it’s idiotic, but now it makes more sense to me. I couldn’t understand what the original post title was trying to say.

          Being a rehash/continuation of the same game was the case since Overwatch 2 came out as they dropped the PvE plans, so it wouldn’t be news.

            Right, which is why I thought it was weird there was an article being published about it and assumed it was untimely drivel since the game was released in 2022. Again, it didn’t make sense to me as posted and I had to click into the article to sort it out.

            All that to say, it wasn’t abundantly clear to me just based on the title of the post.

            Well, there might’ve been some change that made it even more like the original, which could’ve prompted such a title either way…

        It could mean “It’s just the same old shit but with 5 new heroes next week”
        It’s this new trend of making a confusing headline so people click it for clarification.
