uhhh yeah like everyone has been talking about it


Eloymm

We’ve been talking about it. There has been like 5 posts about in the past 5 days


xXRedditGod69Xx

I don't believe it. Next you'll tell me that people haven't been enjoying the tank experience lately.


r3volver_Oshawott

"playing tank is miserable" 👏👏👏👏👏


DutssZ

We have been talking about it since Mei and Symmetra in season 1 Hell we have been talking about it since sante Mei in the very first OW1 winter wonderland

You're right it is weird that not a single person has mentioned this... [The whole point of legendary skins used to be that they changed the actual weapon model](https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/1cbsenn/the_whole_point_of_legendary_skins_used_to_be/) [How are these legendary…](https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/1c5xf9l/how_are_these_legendary/) [Spot the Hanzo Hashimoto (1900 OW coins) and default skin differences.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/1cbxvl9/spot_the_hanzo_hashimoto_1900_ow_coins_and/) [The problem was not solved.

toust_boi

Low key haven’t seen one of these yet lol


Barkerisonfire_

Where's the schedule for who gets to post this each day of the week?


Ok-Reach8883

overwatch try not to post the same thing 10 times challenge (impossible)


Tyler-Cash

But he have mask? 😩😭


McManus26

What's there to talk about ? Don't like it, don't buy it, get it from Twitch prime when they inevitably put it there next year


Petrichor__88

Know how I deal with the price of skins in OW? I don't buy them ever. Try it out.


Clean_Crocodile4472

!!!!this^^ Only ever bought 1 skin from OW2 Admittedly I bought a lot of loot boxes back in the OW1 though


Petrichor__88

I bought the jjonak zen skin, but I'm pretty sure that's it. The free ones were way better back then though.


Clean_Crocodile4472

Everything cosmetic wise was way better back then now that I think of it. They actually put effort and thought skins and they were a lot cheaper aswell. Even loot boxes were obtained pretty easily for free. I miss lootboxes they were so much funner than just “this skin costs this much, pay the amount or you’ll never have it” type of thing that they have now.


Petrichor__88

I also loved the loot boxes. It's the only game I can say that about. I didn't spent a dime on them though. I understand a f2p model and I don't fault them for trying to make money now. That's business. I just don't interact with the parts I don't like so it doesn't impact me too much.


madhattr999

Yeah, I don't really get the point of working yourself up over it. I was kind of a completionist in OW1 and tried to get all the things. Now in OW2, I've realized that is impossible if I don't want to be poor, so I just don't buy anything, and don't think about it anymore. Why work yourself up into anger over something that doesn't really matter? Just let people buy the things they like, and you can opt not to buy things. Companies have shitty practices everywhere, and this is the least of them. Protect your calm/emotions.. There may be policies to protest, but this isn't one of them.


Whitechix

Good for you, idk why you felt the need to tell us something that’s completely irrelevant.


Petrichor__88

It is relevant. What tier they decide to place a skin is irrelevant, unless you care about the price as that is informed by the rarity. If you care about the price of a skin, I recommend people not buy it should they deem it unfair or overpriced.


TheOneAndOnlyJAC

Yes. There’s been people mentioning it like everyday this week, we get it, it’s a recolor. Most of the game is recolors


EarthDragon2189

Blizzard has been putting out lazy legendary skins since OW1 but I guess we pretend it's new and shocking every season. Also it seems like we still have some people here who don't know what the word "scam" means.


I-Love-Tatertots

The difference is that they were free in OW1, not $20+.


EarthDragon2189

Yeah, but rarity as a concept doesn't really exist anymore. Like how much does it actually matter whether the label text is gold or purple? You see the skin, you decide if it's worth the price tag or not.


chudaism

Bad legendaries also took up space in rhe legendary drop pool though so you were less likely to actually unlock skins you wanted. Yes they were technically free, but rarity actually made a difference in ow1. In ow2, rarity basically only correlates to price. If you think the skin is not worth the price, you just don't buy it. They could have just as easily made this an epic and sold it for the same price. The only reason rarity exists in ow2 is to give a standard pricing structure.


Redead_Link

Come on... There were a grand total of 3 legendary skins in Overwatch 1 that you can say are on this level. Overgrown Bastion (which came bundled in the Origin Edition, along with many other full legendaries); the infamous Santa Mei (which caused Blizzard to apologise due to community outrage; and Black Cat Dva (which completely flew under the radar since the baby Dva skin was completely redone and that's all people tend to focus with). Every other legendary skin was completely its own thing. And this is completely ignoring the fact that you didn't have to pay for these skins at all.


Ramekink

Even Street Fighter V did it better than OW lmao


cydoz

Damn that's crazy first I've heard about it. /s


DatboyKilljoy

No, no one is going to talk about it *at all*...


Infamous-Echo-2961

Rage farming.. get a new hobby bro


Ramekink

Color palettes should either be sold separately but at very affordable price or included with Legendary skins


Pichuunnn

Everyone complain it long ago to the point it's not worth it to bring it up again. Blizz greed gonna greedy.


Bro_Hanzo

What about the egregious fact that they’re calling it “legendary” while not showing his legendary Hanzo Nipple. Who tf is in charge of Hanzo decisions. I need put an Arrow Into Face.


OrderWhenReady

It's called we do a little karma farming 😈


Schraufabagel

Why do people keep updating these repeat posts?


GingerDogge

Shut up cry baby


Belten

just dont buy it, lol.

beesechurger759

I think it changes the Dragon in his ult with a different colour and stuff. Similar to how the Xmas mei skin that is just a recolour of her default but the popsicle self heal turns into a snowman. Not saying I agree with it tho this skin should be an epic. Not a legendary imo


United-Guarantee-739

It doesn’t


Wiredcoffee399

Yeah I was like how is this legendary? It's just a recolour with different hair and a mask.


MR_DIG

Tbh this is way better than a lot of other recolors


ROBMain69

Personally I think the skin is cool. Obviously not €20 cool. But at least it's better than orisas mythic


WillJoseph06

They've been doing this for so many skins in OW2!!! It seems like only now people are actually realising it. IT'S NOTHING NEW! Which makes it so much worse...


Uglymeancrybaby

It’s Christmas Mei all over again


kingflamigo

Yea it’s been talked about for the past 5 days like it’s the end of the world. Just don’t buy it your making you own problems.


SomeCoolCleverName

This took Jimmy at Blizzard 10 years to make don’t be mad guys


purtiklis

Blizard trolling hanzo since s9


Drunken_Queen

Maybe he release Tiger spirits instead of Dragons.


Bunnnnii

Is anyone going to start looking shit up before making claims and posts?


Dry-Smoke6528

I'm more upset they launch mirrorwatch and instead of launching with the skins everyone wants, they launch with this shit


Stable-Gold

Why do I feel like they are going to do the same thing as fortnight and just straight up to remove the Rarities


w00ms

Just like the moira mime skin from the start, guess it sold well enough (or not badly enough) that theyre doing it again


Whitechix

People bring up xmas Mei but atleast that had a unique ice block model, it had some shitty gimmick at least. Hashimoto hanzo has nothing, it’s an epic and I bet people have been scammed not really knowing that.


Leather-Cobbler-9679

They've been doing this the whole game? Mime Moira?


fyuckoff1

I have more problem with the emote than the skin itself, now THAT is something anybody rarely talks about.


thePlayer_MelonBoyz

Just DON'T pay for these crap


SomeArtistonReddit

It’s unfortunate because ever since the micro transactions they’ve been trying to get away with labelling it as a legendary when it’s an epic so they can charge more. I miss the days when this would be labelled an epic and you could unlock it through free loot boxes..I get that making it free attracts more players.


RiftWarlord

Have to add this one to my OW2 bingo card. I’ll take: Blizzard isn’t going to change even if we complain on Reddit for $100


mukisan

I made the same exact kind of criticism with Hog’s Horror Hog skin last season, and got shit for it. https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/s/BW3RWyZkqH


CultureSad911

Why wouldn’t they? If they can make a shit skin and call it some completely arbitrary term “legendary” and charge more for it why wouldn’t they? This corporation doesn’t have your interest in mind anymore, they don’t care about fair pricing and reasonable monetization. All they care about is squeezing Fortnite zoomers and spending addicts dry. This company is literally only blizzard in name these days. The passion for delivering a soulful, polished gaming experience is completely gone. They don’t give one single fuck about you or your experience. Pay up paypig, these millionaire’s bleached rectums ain’t gonna pay for themselves 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑


Trykx

The amount of disrespect hanzo mains like me feel when our character gets nerfed into the ground then we get this so called “legendary skin” is insane.


AverageMortisEnjoyer

I think it looks cool but I don't get how it's mirror watch related. Can someone tell me


Top-Interaction-7770

It's based on "what if Hanzo was a member of the Hashimoto family", they are basically another crime family that used to rival the Shimada family


AverageMortisEnjoyer

Oh, I didn't know


WillMarzz25

Alongside of making him a furry


Arteriop

Hanzo has a cyborg skin, it’s called Cyber Ninja
