MODERATORS
I think FOMO is quite a strong motivator for a addictive person. At least loot boxes were obtainable via playing the game. I wouldn't say I am an excessive gamer, but I still managed to basically get everything over the span of 6 years playing the game. But now you HAVE to spend money to relieve FOMO pressure. Forcing you to spend money is quite predatory.
I agree with this. Overwatch 2 is FOMO galore. It stressed me out.
With Overwatch 1, most content came back later, with exceptions for the charity skin and a few small things.
