I feel like all the moira skins are bland and boring. My dad is a moira main (for now) and he only likes the banshee and blackwatch skins
How about an actual new PvE map instead of just regurgitated old stuff?
I bought 150 boxes with my stimulus check.
I've never got weekly challenges before.
Nah... skins and how about new character?
No new SYM SKIN?🤩What the fawk?
I've been away for 2 years. i thought I'd find new PvE content...nope same recycled stuff... see you in OW2 i guess
Super suck game
@asioe kiou if you are old player you would know what I mean. That is a ver suck game for team match work.
What's the point in even having the event if they don't add anything new
Honestly as much as I love Archives and most OW events, I’d be willing to go a year without events if it meant they could just focus their time on OW2 and get it out soon.
Dead Game xd
So how do i get the 'curse you all' voiceline?
0:44 Indeed Reaper. Indeed.
I need legendary
Very suck game
Can we appreciate how they have bastion an emote
Thanks for the symmetra skin
i find the story missions to be incredibly boring... So much so that I'm not sure if I really want these skins.... :/
That’s cool but where’s overwatch 2. It’s been almost 2 years since it’s reveal and we’ve gotten nothing
I like the mood
I know
Yes
That’s cool but where’s overwatch 2. It’s been almost 2 years since it’s reveal and we’ve gotten nothing
Swe need Tf2 X Overwatch.
Everyone gangster until soilder becomes british
0:44 Indeed Reaper. Indeed.
As a russian myself i must say its pretty good representasion of a russian "knight" from a folklore. Also her weapon has 3 dragon heads because its a reference to a classical slavic folklore beast - Zmey gorynich - three-headed dragon
0 wins in every mode why the ....
L'manburg skins right there lmao
Such a disappointing update for 2021 My opinion for this is ok
Wasted opportunity, it’s not too late to fix it; 1) Delete Widow and tracer skin because they have nothing to do with the character except nationality 2) Add Mansa Musa or just ‘King’ Doomfist and Traditional or ‘Saree’ Symmetra. 3) Add short descriptions like with other archive skins to relate the skin to the character 4) Make the special game modes exclusive by only releasing 3 per week 5) I know that your expecting this to be over watches worst year with popularity and income because hopefully your releasing ow2 next year but you still could’ve made a bit more of an effort.
What's the point in even having the event if they don't add anything new
battlerite
cosmetics.... sheep love that
FINALLY THE BIRD GETS SOME FOOD AFTER SO MANY YEARS
Hello blizzard I love your game but the biggest problems is phara is op sooo you need to nerf phara and the April fools patch note is amazing and you need to add the reaper and doom and hanzo and orisa and Lucio and mercy and brig buffs are Amazing market to the live servers ok
@Bolia Fops I know the skins are bad
meh this event
0:44 Indeed Reaper. Indeed.
Thanks for the symmetra skin
this event wasn't worth the wait.
Everyone gangster until soilder becomes british
Yeah id rather every character had a different historical theme instead of 3 of the SAME THING. But i think the historical for Archives is cool.
They really are running out of ideas
That’s cool but where’s overwatch 2. It’s been almost 2 years since it’s reveal and we’ve gotten nothing
I feel like the green visor does not go well with the the rest of the color scheme of the samurai outfit, but nevertheless AMAZING JOB!
The art team deserves alot of claps for the recent skins they've been putting out. Props to ya guys and girls
0:18 Daddy
L'manburg skins right there lmao
I think these skins are good, but they do not fit Archieves event I mean Archieves is lore event, and I doubt that anyone of these characters actually wore these on any occasion
0:48 every women in hentai
I wonder if this year we get some good Hammond skins..... I mean a Christmas bauble would do it but maybe that's just me...
You know rather than the same 5 characters always getting a new skin because they all share almost the same body mesh....
Suddenly, Reinhardt gets a skin based of his country's action in 1941.
Oh no
Cool at first but no new mission :(
Honestly a comic where tracers chronol-accelerator malfunctions and puts her way back in time would be amazing
meh this event
Bri’ish!?
great, now unban my account pls
I garam isken gnje
Finally !! I started playing in feb and I’ve fell in love with a mad scientist... Just got the archive skin for my main, Moira and I couldn’t be happier .
Oh it's this time of the year again. opens wallet
They really are running out of ideas
So, the skins are actually not lore related this year? That’s the point of Archives but I’m kinda digging the skins ngl lmao
These bots are getting good
I wish that every Overwatch hero had a Talon skin, I love Talon's design.
Retribution is the best co-op mode in overwatch Change my mind
Now I have to play archives to unlock weekly skins?! And if I DON'T WANT to play archives, then what? I won't get anything?!?! Blizzard are you completely idiots?!?!
What?? Will there be no lore? Will there be no new story? Will there be a new assignment? Or at least maps ?? The Archive Event was created to reveal the story, and where is it? They feed again with the same skins. Yes, they are great. But the archival event has always differed from the rest with its lore. Not even a comic book or story
They're really focussing almost all they've got on Overwatch 2 to get it out as quickly as possible. Until we'll get the game, we won't see anything bigger anytime soon
I want goth mercy to step on me.
I think these skins are good, but they do not fit Archieves event I mean Archieves is lore event, and I doubt that anyone of these characters actually wore these on any occasion
I'm just so hungry for anything Overwatch. Thank you for the crumbs, Jeff. I'll eat every bit
Why is the genji skin so beefy?
Add cross platform please, and more information about Overwatch 2
(you can find it on wikipedia)
Finally another Zarya skin!!! Yay!!!
I got stuck for Sympathy Gains!😭😡 Thank you you said" Curse you, all!" Reaper!🤣😅
Finally !! I started playing in feb and I’ve fell in love with a mad scientist... Just got the archive skin for my main, Moira and I couldn’t be happier .
Bri’ish!?
I can't wait till they announce cross play
Why aren't the Archive missions always playable?!?!? Some of the best content in the game only happens once a year...
I didn’t see much skins in this game
I wish that every Overwatch hero had a Talon skin, I love Talon's design.
@Ximena Abrego Yeah kinda like that.
Like a reverse au?
I don't even wanna play the game anymore I'm just here to look at the new skins, the Blizzard design team is amazing
Could u just release OW2?
Everyone being in their archived suits: Zarya: *check out my gun lmao*
This is just sad, many heroes don't have a legendary archive skin some don't even have an epic one, and they brought skins for everyone that already has 1 epic and 1 legendary, blizzard sucks bad.
Literally just make it more difficult than adding more to the story?
I miss when this event added new lore every year, it was easily the most hype event every time. Least the skins are solid as always.
Came out and ends the same time as the tartaglia banner
For those who are interested I have some knowledge on Zarya's skin to share with ya'll, since I am Russian: this skin is based on the heavy cavalry class called " Bogatyr' " - very prominent slavic army figures that have many ties to nordic-slavic traditions. They usually commanded the tzar's army and subdivisions of that. They are like knights but usually have more similarities with vikings in historical descriptions - in that they are more physically buff and are prone to handle conflicts bare handed. But in Russian folklore and slavic mythos there is a specific bogatyr named Dobrinya Nikitich who defeated the dragon named "Zmey Gorinich" which had seven heads - that's why the gun has a red dragon motif. And the overall design of Zarya herself and her color scheme is similar to 20 century painting that depicts the same warrior mentioned earlier fighting the dragon. (you can find it on wikipedia)
I want to play and get these skins, but I have finals and the event ends when I finish my finals.... 😔
Okay, but is the game balanced and fun to play?
Finally some new content
Just the same recycled thing again this year i guess. This is why overwatch died
@Ximena Abrego the best thing about ow right now is the custom games. The queues for comp are too long because nobody plays anymore due to the lack of new events and heroes. You’re right, I’m not happy with everything because everything in overwatch has pretty much stayed the same for so long that it’s stale. I’ll still play ow 2 when it comes out and probably stick with it for years after just like i did with ow 1
They are working on ow 2, especially on the lore and gameplay, you are not happy at all boi with everything
God entered into my body, like a body. my same size. holy ghost baptism. God attacks me, God rips my face, shoots into my mouth, gum disease. Jesus appears and laughs.
Whens overwatch 2 coming
The skins are kinda boring
And nothing for hanzo
Overwatch can you give us actual content instead of flashy skins and cheap challenges
So? Archives is lore you remember? There are no new maps and no new modes since 2019. Sorry but whole 2020 and 2021 "events" are only for adding skins and sprays. Nothing more. I used to argue with guys who say Dead Game to Overwatch. Now, I agree them.
We'll get there again!! :/ As a diehard overwatch fan myself the wait is super hard and the devs are doing a pretty bad job at communicating with us. They want to impress us with the results, not talks. Judging on everything they've said in interviews throughout the years, Overwatch 2 will be huge. Events will be renewed, some removed, some new added, lots of new content with more than just cosmetics. It still takes time, for now all we can do is wait.
Man archives story mission trailers used to hype me up so much, now we only get "heyyy, look at these skins haha" 😔
We will never get a new story ever again
They're developing an entire campaign with Overwatch 2... but no, we won't get anything else for Archives
People still play this?
Почему вы потратили время на перевод этого
Trash game, get this online multiplayer only, no storyline garbage outta my recommendation feed.
And the junkers!? Where is junkrat and Roadhog?? 😭😭
I m not a hater but come on now u can do better blizzard
It's gonna be so hilarious if symmetra doesn't get a skin for next event
I can't play cause this game needs ps-plus to play (TvT) and also my ps4 is bought from UAE meaning I can't use any other codes besides the ones from UAE. Im currently in Malaysia TvT
I'm a Zenyatta main btw
Let's just hope if they change overwatch's business model... They NEVER make it a subscription service, sure F2P+P2P Cosmetics is one thing, but a subscrition to play would make no sense.
I can't wait to get blackwatch genji
big meh
Playing archive missions is impossible. The queue times are 20 + mins !!! And qp wins don't count for the challenge, so i suppose im missing out on all 3 skins
When does blizzard stop recycling?
I understand and love the work that is going into OW2, and the new skins look awesome! But.... Man, it really hit me this time how bad it feels to have two archives with no new, well, archive. I'm sure OW2 will be fantastic, and I want them to take their time to make the best game they can... But the major content drought is starting to catch up to me.
It really is exhausting... the content drought has been noticeable for 3 years. Can't wait to finally have content again in probably a year
Everyone, It’s freaking trending!
If you’re under 20 I wish you all the happiness you deserve in this world of negativity 💯🤍✨
I really feel like they put no effort into this event like it's all just thrown together last minute.... Like "oh let's give genji a cool skin then everyone will be happy" but I usually like Uprising but now it's a bit dull.
@Ximena Abrego yeah but that's OW2, they haven't really tried doing anything in the event now
The rest of the lore will be in ow 2
