Yep. Paladins is now my go-to multiplayer game. I just hope it isn't branded an Overwatch clone and therefore is dismissed because of it.

It looks terrifyingly close to an OW clone, Saw someone using Reinhardt's magic shield thingy, p.sure I saw Reaper and even the turret guy is a little fat dwarf like Torbjörn.
-2What to do if you find yourself stuck in a crack in the ground underneath a giant boulder you can’t move, with no hope of rescue. Consider how lucky you are that life has been good to you so far. Alternatively, if life hasn’t been good to you so far, which given your current circumstances seems more likely, consider how lucky you are that it won’t be troubling you much longer.

You're right, it's not like Overwatch is "terrifyingly" close to TF2! Engineer --> Torbjörn. Soldier --> Pharah. Demo --> Junkrat... Why does Overwatch seemingly get a pass, but not Paladins?

Because you're a blizz hater. Plz stop being biased.

Ultimate abilities alone make the split from TF2 noticeable. Torb also can't use scrap for anything other than armor packs. Engi's teleporter is put onto Symettra. Soldier doesn't have a hover. Demo doesn't have a bear trap and concussive mine (iirc). Mercy is the closest thing to a TF2 clone there is in Overwatch. There are similarities, but there is enough different to make it not feel like a TF2 clone.

Sure, but it appears we're talking about characters - visually and mechanically. Originally Posted by Fallen Angel

His concussive mine is also stickies, the difference being that doesn't hurt Junkrat, but Junk's has a CD, and has no skill element to it (at least, not comparable). Originally Posted by Fallen Angel
Mechanically, sure, but character-wise it's "just as bad" as Paladins. Originally Posted by Fallen Angel
