In response to widespread backlash, Blizzard dropped the store prices by quite a bit, reducing Legendary skin prices to 1000 coins, and Epic skins to just 250. When the game first launched, Legendary skins cost a whopping 1,900 Overwatch Coins, and an Epic skin cost 1000, this basically translates to $19 and $10 respectively. To make matters worse, Overwatch 2's store has some pretty insane prices.

One of the most divisive aspects of Overwatch 2 has been its removal of loot boxes, essentially forcing players to buy skins or purchase the Battle Pass, as there's simply no alternative.

In the first Overwatch, players could unlock skins through several different means.

Just yesterday, Blizzard announced that the Winter Wonderland event Bastion skin, which gives the DPS character a festive gingerbread makeover, will cost just one Overwatch Coin for a limited time. By swapping to a live-service, free-to-play model, fans would have naturally expected Overwatch 2 to be a better deal than its predecessor, but for many, they're disappointed with the over-reliance on in-game currency, the removal of loot boxes, and the severe lack of new content, and Blizzard's latest move has just continued to disappoint. While the actual gameplay is still as excellent as ever, it's Overwatch 2's rough business practices that have disappointed long-time fans.

From the moment Overwatch 2 first dropped on October 4, it's garnered some pretty harsh reviews from both critics and fans alike. Overwatch 2 has had quite a divisive launch.
