As I've said in the other thread, I'm not a fan of first-person-games, and yet I've become pretty fascinated with Overwatch recently. Aside from the characters, I'm mostly into the lore, though, which basically isn't in the actual game at all, so I don't think it's something I'll end up buying.
But, Overwatch is having a free-to-play weekend from 5/26/17 (11AM PT) till 5/29/17 at (11:59 PM PT), so if anyone has interest in checking it out, here's your chance!

I looked into it this morning, hoping we could get some game play together, but my PC is too old. I don't meet many of the requirements to run it. Have you played any of the other Blizzard games?

Sounds like someone is due for an upgrade then! In general, I mean, not necessarily for this game. Blizzard games I played were Warcraft I (and/or II; don't really remember) and Diablo I+II way back in the day. Nothing since. I took part in a LAN party about 1-2 years ago, where we briefly played Warcraft III, but only the multiplayer mode and I really didn't like it much. That was also the first and only time I ever tried any PvP multiplayer with Counter Strike: Global Offensive and that was about the most boring and pointless gaming experience of my life, to the point where I felt like slamming my head against the screen and was starting to question the sanity of anyone who likes playing that stuff.

You know, if Blizzard ever decides that they're done with making games, they can always go into the animated movie scene:

It's so sad that I like all the lore more than I'll probably like the actual game.

I've got a newer laptop now, maybe we can find a game to play together

The lore of the game is much more interesting to me than the actual gameplay. MP only games aren't for me.
