#christmas

This Christmas, Jeff Kaplan is singing about what the Overwatch team has been doing and thinking since last Christmas. (Subtitles available)

📒 Mʏ Tʜᴏᴜɢʜᴛs
The potential topics I had in mind for this year’s Jeff Christmas song were toxicity or, to change things up and bring something positive in, saying thanks to Jeff and the Overwatch team for the good things they’ve done. But then they announced Overwatch 2 and I just had to make Jeff sing about that. The new stuff looks great (and they are finally continuing the story, I care a lot about stories) and I’m looking forward to it but my first thought was that they just mostly stopped updating the game to save everything up for one giant update that they’ll call a sequel for attention and money. Usually, games are either updated or they are not and keep getting sequels instead. This seemed to me as if they suddenly switched from one to the other but they also haven’t because Overwatch 1 gets everything except for the new PvE modes as well and all other modes are played together by players of both games. This makes it sound like they are making a giant update and the PvE part of it is a paid DLC. Though, I’ve read that OW 2 was supposed to be a real sequel but Jeff had to convince Blizzard that people would keep their things in OW 2 and that people from both games could play together in the PvP modes so that OW 1 players who expected to be able to keep playing the game as it used to be continually updated could still play it and I guess that made it mandatory to put the new things except for PvE in the old game as well. So we should be thankful to Jeff that it’s less of a sequel and more of an update than it used to be, it’s just a bit strange to keep calling it a sequel after those changes. Still, thanks and merry Christmas to you, Jeff! And, of course, the Overwatch team and everyone reading this as well. :)

📄 Lʏʀɪᴄs
Last update, we gave you balance / fixes / new skins / new heroes / new maps / events
But the very next day you put it away.
This time, to save us from tears
We’re gonna call it a sequel.

[Chorus]

No update could satisfy.
We’ve been working hard, but you just do not care
Tell me, people, do you play the game, still?
Well, it’s been three years, it doesn’t surprise me.

Wonderful Patch
I wrote to you and sent it
Singing about balance, fixes, new content, I meant it
Now I know what a fool I’ve been
But if we made a sequel, we know we’d fool you again

[Chorus]
[Chorus]

Oh
Ohverwatch 2

Desperate devs, can’t please the community
No matter what we do, can’t do it right
No use, we need some way to keep the game alive
That’s it! Overwatch 2 will solve our problems

No proper updates, gonna save it all for one big update
That we’ll call a sequel for attention and money
Actually, it’s just a PvE DLC
Sequels redefined

[Chorus]
[Chorus]

No proper updates, gonna save it all for one big update
(Gave you balance)
That we’ll call a sequel for attention and money
Maybe next update
We’re gonna call it a
We’re gonna call it a sequel.
Sequel
Sequel
