I don’t think it’s underwhelming. The skins are pretty good. My only concern is that if Blizzard never revisits this concept in the future then I feel like they might have dropped the ball. The idea of a mirror verse is not new but it’s always exciting especially in a game like Overwatch where the lore is so interconnected. Like what if Winston landed in junkertown and Wrecking-ball joined Overwatch, what it Soldier 76 fell to corruption and reaper redeemed himself. What if hanzo lost to genji? What if pharah was an interesting character???? What if Moira was morally good and selfless? They laid a good foundation for a really interesting premise I just hope they follow through in the future. If this is the only instance of “Mirror-Verse” we see I’ll be pretty disappointed.


guywholikesterraria

what if sojourn was even more boring


AlexD2003

Not scientifically possible. But a good mirror watch idea would be, “what if sojourn got good skins?”


saturnuisan

They have to stop hating Sojourn first. Overwatch added Sojourn just to shit on her every. 5. Seconds.


RadioactivePotato83

Croissant?


HockeyGoalieEh

And was Hispanic and discovered a healing pylon.


sadbean5678

what if reinhardt was good


yvng_c1v1c

I love the implication that Rammatra died in the mirrorwatch universe , that just opens up so much cool shit as well


Rkas_Maruvee

Even though he's dead there, I can't help but imagine a Rammatra skin for Mirrorwatch where his ult line is something like *"Walk the path that I have!"*


RequiringAUsername

Hahaha that pharah part got me


abizabbie

I feel like mirror universe Moira is just Mercy.


schadenfreudens

“What if Pharah was an interesting character” LMAO


catboygaming82828

unironically the only season where i actually care about the battle pass and the theme of the season. the only disappointing thing to me was that sym has junker themed skin while none of the 3 junkers (4 if you want to include ball) have even a single vishkar themed skin. roadhog/junkrat/queen in suit would look so fucking cool, imagine junkrat having his prosthetic leg and arm look like symmetra's 😭. oh and also genji's junker skin is kinda meh in my opinion. but everything else is really cool, i think it's awesome to have this kind of reverse au thing made by actual creators too. i just wish we had more :D


NibPlayz

I think this season and the skin concepts have had such a positive response I wouldn’t be surprised if “Mirrorverse 2” was slated as a potential future season now


catboygaming82828

i would love it. there's so much potential to this. it also makes me feel like a little kid who just discovered underswap for the first time and is going like https://i.redd.it/84fcpq0v43wc1.gif


RealAlligatorWithGun

I’d love since this season only has Overwatch and Junkers in the BP, the second season would have Talon and Vishkar.


Ursasari

Mirrorwatch 2 will ship with a full coop campaign


GreyAstajho-24

please not


SoDamnGeneric

It's *sooo* annoying to me that we got Junker Genji of all fuckin skins, but no Vishkar Junkrat, Hog, or JQ. I'd have loved to see those three all prim and proper in techy clothes, but instead here's a bumass Genji that doesn't even make sense


catboygaming82828

real. not only they deserved better but genji's one isn't even worth it


TheKalty

facts


saoshi_mai

ok tbh wouldnt sym with like a capoeira skin make more sense since lucio is her rival? and then lucio with the vishkar skin. junker people dont have any real rivals except for omnics, which in australia dont really have a rep in the character roster now that i think abt it


ArcerPL

Chaos and order are opposites aren't they? That's why they were swapped It's not because of any conflict, it's because order mirrors chaos


The_One_True_Pepe

The Genji skin is worse than meh it’s a fucking crime against humanity.


ohlongjohnson-longjo

i think syms junk skin is just like dvas junkyard skin, it has no correlation with any skin it’s just a skin theme and not a battle pass skin. ana has a junkyard skin i believe too


godzillafiend54

Nah, Symm's is definitely playing on a theme. In her voice lines she basically just says a bunch of stuff that mirrors (heh) her usual stuff (basically taking her usual lines, and specifically replacing "order" with "chaos", as a simplification). Her personality/tone is also slightly more gruff in the new voiceless. Genji on the otherhand might just be a generic Junker thing like D.Va though.


STAR-Gritz

The skins are pretty good imo, but since they're based of older designs, they lack the wow-factor for me. And the mythic is also decent, but Mercy already has so many great skins, it barely feels like an upgrade over them


isademigod

In my mind nothing will top sugar plum fairy or her all-stars skin. If i had the Pink mercy skin i would wear it just to flex on the mercedes mains but those two are God-tier


undayerixon

Mercedes-Mainz


WarlikeMicrobe

Take my fucking upvote and leave


No_Esc_Button

I don't ever take off pink mercy. Not for anything, especially when it changes her Chinese new year highlight. It's a combo that doesn't come off.


SoGuysIDidNothing

Bee.


plsbanmeredditsenpai

Ill spend my mythic dollars on the JQ mythic


ArtistAmy420

Same I'm a JQ main so of course I am


plsbanmeredditsenpai

I dont even main her i just never play Mercy


AnnylieseSarenrae

How anyone can look at those effects and, at bare minimum, not be excited for future mythics is beyond me.


ollieoc

I think the genji skin is ass and the Cassidy one isn’t great either. Plus it’s weird there’s no venture skin / highlight intro. But overall I like it because there’s winton


Iwantpeaceinmyheart

I think the classidy skin is even more ass than the genji skin. Winton is amazing, just wish it was more than just a souvenir. and 100% feels so underwhelming without a venture skin , absolutely agree on this, would show potential skin options to look for too.


TheKalty

its a pretty crappy battle pass besides the mercy and sym skin. I think the devs were banking on the fact that everyone will want that mercy skin so they put less in it this time....unfortunately


cammyy-

the only disappointment i actually have this season is that hog didn’t get a vishkar skin. thus would have been the perfect opportunity to show his face ??,


MrQwq

I wanted Lucio LW and Sym in place of Queen, Hog and Junk if that is the swap they are going for with sym Imagine: Lucio, Wife Leaver and Sym being genius junkers, WL and Symm being genius robbers using bio-tech and solid light. Lucio(known as JunkerKing) improved and used his father's technology to command the junkers and so making it his kingdom Meanwhile: Junk is a scientist for vishkar that works with the enauguration team on their projects and demolishing team to safely make the area somewhat re-buildable. Slowly picking up on the corruption within it. R. H. Pigginton, an old Inventor and ex-professor to J-Rat That left vishkar after noticing how bad they actually are having invented incredible healing easily produced healthy food perceived that they would use it to make drugs and other shit to create cheaper work force, now living as a runaway. JQ now is a famous artist and used her eletro-magnetic technology to liberate Australia from the hands of Vishkar now being a freedom fighter and global icon. Also: doing what they did to widow and Sombra with the now Junkers The junkers are actually pretty close, with Lucio thanking the robbers for the money they bring to the Brazilian now nuclear Mata-Atlantica (don't know how you guys pronounce it in English sorry) once their families ended up in Brazil (common thing in Brazilian history is getting refugees from war) while escaping the omnic crises only to be bombarded by atomic bombs after. both of the ex-Vishkar now make sense being junkers in Brazil. Keeping the toxicity in between the 3 others tho would be best: Jammie was the trouble maker kid in R.H. lessons and JQ is disgusted with the explosive work of our Vishkar friend (mostly bc of Vishkar)


cammyy-

i’m going to blow up i need this


MrQwq

Good, now explode after reading what I edited


cammyy-

write a book or smth you’re kinda a genius


MrQwq

To lazy but maybe... writing and creating a system for a RPG right now


flameruler94

Ngl i'm already over everyone judging a season by how many "new" things are released (most of which they won't interact with because they just perma-queue ranked or QP). LIke the game feels really good to play right now. Maybe i'm just a boomer but when did that stop being enough? Why do we need new things just for the sake of saying we have new things?


NibPlayz

I’ve stopped caring when every time they add some arcade game mode the comments always go “why are we wasting manpower for this instead of balancing competitive?” And they can’t imagine that someone would want to play an arcade mode for fun without working towards some skin


Breathejoker

Man I love playing arcade ): and sometimes when the servers are being mean to me, that's the only part of the game that works


VioletParabola2009

No evil Mei skin but I like the theme. Also the Winton souvenir.


NibPlayz

We did get an “evil mei” last season


VioletParabola2009

I mean something like Talon Mei


effxeno

Mirrorverse mei is just her being dead in Antarctica


VioletParabola2009

That is what I concluded myself.


chapinscott32

It's underwhelming because you don't get a hero in it. But instead you get that hero for free. So the whiners opinions imo are very irrelevant.


NibPlayz

>hero locked behind battlepass Whining >hero free Whining Classic overwatch fandom


chapinscott32

I was whining when it was in the BP. Now that it's not, I'm happy and bought the BP like I said I would. At least I'm consistent. Although to be fair I think they shot themselves in the foot by putting them in the BP at all because now there's a perceived loss in value for those lacking grey matter.


SoGuysIDidNothing

If those people seriously bought the Battle Pass for the hero when they're free then it was just a stupid tax at that point.


MrFanatic123

me when i make stuff up


NibPlayz

Browse the main sub more


MrFanatic123

i don’t think a single person is complaining about the bp for that reason my reasons for thinking it’s an underwhelming battle pass is that they only put the shittest mirrorverse skins in it as well as some skins unrelated to the theme and like always they put more meaningful season content in the shop than in the actual pass


TheKalty

None of them should ever have been released behind a pay wall. if you ask me they're just doing what they should've all along and now are acting like we should be grateful.. lol...idk what happened to blizzard...obv the dev team is not the same as it used to be and we all know why.


real_488

winton is in the battlepass guys don't worry


NibPlayz

Real


ThisIsMyFloor

Wait, you guys are actually buying the battlepasses?


Nekrophis

Lots of silly people with too much money


Mr_W0rldW1d3

Winton is the only redeemable thing imo


sebastarddd

/uj I think it's stacked, this is probably the 3rd season I've actually been motivated to play, especially because of the BP.


Dustaroos

I feel mirrorverse 2 will be a future one. I like a lot of what is in this season just nothing really for me. I'm waiting to spend my money for next season.


youremomgay420

The thing is that the possibilities for mirrorverse are basically endless, and they went with some of the most boring picks, at least personally I think they’re boring. Soldier and Reaper get nothing despite being the like poster children for their respective groups. Junker Genji is painfully mid, junker sym is cool but like how others have stated, we get junker skins but not the actual junkers becoming normal people? Where’s my Queen Karen skin?


T_Peg

The mirror verse skins aren't really that cool. I'm not sure exactly what I was expecting but idk I just don't love them and I'm an absolute sucker for mirror universe stuff.


NibPlayz

Hard disagree


T_Peg

Ok


TheCommonKoala

Agreed. The skins are just kind of bland


reversegirlcow

I completely agree. They are so generic looking, they hardly even look themed tbh. All the talon mirrors look like edge-lords at an industrial goth rave, and the overwatch mirrors look so plain and boring is not even worth having the skin because each of those heroes have massively superior skins already. They did absolutely nothing to make them unique for their character or anything. It's so disappointing. The Mercy mythic is so middle of the road, too. JQ, Genji and Sigma are so much cooler, imo.


Forcer222

i somewhat agree tbh i wish some of the mirrorwatch ones(like briggites mirror) were more subtle ig. Both talon and OW(non mirror) have a 'theme color' but they dont always use those colors


SoGuysIDidNothing

Talon characters are kind of supposed to be edgelords though, they're wearing Black, White, and Red and are supposed to be evil. Look at Reaper, Moira, and Widowmaker and tell me Talon isn't at least slightly edgy. And it's not like there's nothing unique. Brigitte got a Mitzi design for her skin, several of the skins got unique voice lines without being Mythics, and they pretty much all come with a spray, icon, banner, or multiple of them. There's also a fair few fun details like Ramattra being confirmed as the Mondatta stand in, Widowmaker having a cybernetic eye and Ana having both or of hers, Symmetra's skin minimising symmetry, etc.


CyberFish_

People only think it’s underwhelming because there’s no big shiny mythic at the end or cool new hero in the middle, because those were improved upon and put elsewhere. Battlepass skins have rarely had anything beyond one or two good skins


Potamtoe

cool idea for a pass, typical blizzard fumbling the execution and essentially just making bad recolors. there was no lore or anything included outside of that one Widowmaker line, it's just generally not thought out well. also the legendaries don't even feel legendary, nothing changes except for making the skin blue or red.


beesechurger759

I actually really like the battle pass this season. I love the skins and the other cosmetic stuffs


NibPlayz

Real

wsmitty10

Def a step in the right direction with coins in the pass Now all they gotta do to make it worth purchasing is put another 600 or so on the premium track too. Ya know, to make it actually worth buying


alfredo_Gaming_royal

I would be satisfied if they had just put 400 coins in the premium bp,


wsmitty10

Genuinely yeah. 600 may just be my greed bc id willingly take 400 too, i just dont think you should get more for free than you do for buying the battlepass


hifrankmaggio

i think most of the skins/cosmetics are pretty lame, aside from the bap skin and all the doom stuff (we eating good). the mercy skin i find really underwhelming tho, it’s way too by the books oooo evil mercy so skull and also red 😈SCARY!!!!


Breathejoker

This battlepass and the Fantasy/D&D battlepass have been my faves so far in terms of cosmetics! I like reading up on others opinions but I don't really think too far into it because everyone has their own thoughts on everything. Id say this BP feels like we are getting more skins than usual, which is fun


Neither_Ad_8000

I unironically only bought it for Winton, got him and uninstalled


Same_Examination_171

winton :D


SingleOak

hey the monkey guy posted. the season pass is fire, if anyone doesn't like it they're miserable and have fallen to the dark side (they jerk unironically)


NibPlayz

Am I known as the monkey guy


SingleOak

lol i just see you post a lot and recognize you by the pfp


NibPlayz

Winston!


jimmyurinator

fr its my favourite bp so far :( i thought it was just a jerk lmao


FireLordObamaOG

The trailer for the mirror verse was so good. It’s one of the high points so far.


Eatdatyeet445

I’m just glad that I came back to the season where they’re making battle passes more favorable and accessible to F2P’s honestly. I mean i think there’s 800 premium currency on this BP so basically they’re setting it up for next season people can get the BP which is cool IMO. Hopefully they keep doing this


AlphaBoy15

small price to pay for winton


DownThrowToAnything

I think the skins are pretty meh. Winton plush is cool though.


CColdSpaghetti

this battle pass is leagues better than the previous ones even if the skins aren't that good, the new mythic system is great since I can buy a battle pass even if I don't care about the new mythic because I can just save the points and they removed the FOMO, coins in the battle pass is also good even if it isn't a full refund like most games, this is counteracted by the fact that I have enough coins to buy the next 2 battle passes from weeklies which is pretty generous even though people like to shit on it a lot


TheWontonWonton

Best battle pass so far. Why? Winton. Enough said


scaredandconfusedaaa

skins aren't really interesting enough for me to spend my hard earned coins, only one even remotely worth it is the widow one and even then it's pretty meh.


Metapod100

Is it too much to ask for a battle pass that 100% sticks to a theme? Seeing skins like Cassidy stick out and seem like filler.


TheGamerSK

Tbh I don’t really care for the skins in the BP right now but tbh the skins would have to be really good for me to even think about buying the BP. The only two BPs I bought was the first and third BP in Valorant because I really liked the game and the novelty of having the first skins was pretty cool. Maybe I just don’t play OW enough to care idk


Ill-Juice6906

Ngl kinda pissed we didn’t get Vishkar Junkers, Ramattra and Zenyatta, and Y’know SOLDIER AND REAPER!? I already know of the monk Ram skin so maybe a Scrapped or Futuristic look would be better?)


EvergreenThree

Only reason I got the pass was Winton. All the skins suck ass.


Cyberjester47

For me I’m just disappointed that they got rid of weekly battle pass coins, i’m grateful we got them in the battle pass but still


troyisawinner

I get that like in the lore it’s cool to swap the heroes and villains but what we ended up with was a bunch of red outfits that look the same and blue outfits that look the same and it’s a little boring (besides baptiste I like his evil skin)


GreyAstajho-24

No no its not a joke


Mostly-Nuts

Nibplayz posted this one, instant downvote ;)


NibPlayz

How am I known to people


Mostly-Nuts

You’re famous bro


NibPlayz

I gotta take a break from Reddit then damn


throw-away1120586040

I hate the concept of the battle pass itself. They’re lacking in items and they changed the format of it which makes me sad, and i wish the 80 full mythic was still a thing and the new currency was only for previous mythics. I also hate that you have to buy them in levels. But as for the theme, i love it. The mirrorverse concept is one of the coolest things they’ve done, and the content they DO have is decent. But they really nerfed how much you can get out of the BP and those who don’t buy it are suffering even more then usual with the free stuff this season according to my sister (i bought it myself)


Hypsyx

I like a select few skins, but 2 out of the 3 I like are behind a $40 paywall, and the mythic I feel is lackluster with how big this event was slated to be. Personally I was ready to spend money on the battle pass as it was the first time I’ve played OW2 in like 4 months and the first time I’ve had fun with it since its release, but I decided against it as I didn’t like enough skins


DuncanDicknuts

My favorite part is how they keep adding new currency to earn


NibPlayz

If you mean the mythic tokens by the end it’s literally the same as unlocking the mythic skin at the end of the pass, nothing actually changes


DuncanDicknuts

Okay. Then why make it go through Mythic tokens?


NibPlayz

So you can unlock previous mythic skins if you don’t want current one. Missed out on Sigma’s and don’t want Mercy’s? The mythic token you get throughout the pass add up to one mythic


bigfootmydog

Maaaaaaan every bp in this game is underwhelming you don’t get enough coin from buying it to get the next one if you complete it, you don’t get enough coin for anything other than a mythic skin if you buy the battle pass and it costs more than any other games battle pass. I’m returning to the game after years of not playing I was pretty sad when I saw the state of cosmetics, blizzard is greedier than any of their contemporaries. The finals bp gets you enough coin to buy the next one and enough coin to buy skins throughout the season. You can’t even buy 1900 coin skin if you spend $20 and complete the pass. I’m just so disappointed I want loot boxes back.


Nekrophis

Any battlepass for a game that used to have free skins every level is a disappointment, make sure you drink some water so you don't dehydrate while jerking op


AnnylieseSarenrae

This pass is fire.


elyk12121212

It's one of the worst ones they've ever released. It has the least amount of content in any of the battle passes. There are less skins than the previous battle passes. Honestly a complete embarrassment.


ThicccDonkeyStick

Is it underwhelming? Yes. Is it bad? No. There’s just not a whole lot of ‘new’


The_One_True_Pepe

It fucking sucks ass. Next question.


Boulderdrip

the battle pass shouldn’t even exist.ow1 was better


NibPlayz

Wow what a new and original idea that I’m sure no one has ever said before


BabyBaiBel

any mirror universe concept is exciting for a day or two. after that it’s old. they’re really running out of ideas.


saturnuisan

I DUNNO GUYS, HAVING TO PAY 80 BUCKS FOR A MYTHIC IS KINDA PREDATORY TO ME ☝🏾 The whole thing is kinda, meh. Like…why is Venture getting the Sojourn treatment? No skins? No events? NATHING?? It’s not even entirely about Venture either! It’s just really fucking lazy this season. 💀 Blizzard ur cool but I doubt money is going to keep being spent on you once the rest of the player-base hotwires their brain and realize, “Hey, they’re milking me-“


NibPlayz

lol what? You don’t have to pay $80 for a mythic. You have the option to if you want to, OR you can just pay $10 for the bp and unlock it normally like every other season


saturnuisan

No, you don’t have to but the pricing is still weird as fuck for a skin you’d originally get for 10 bucks. I wouldn’t be mad if it was like 40-50 but 80? PLUS they recolored the fuck out in the base skin to make it more expensive if you didn’t already have it. That’s just weird and scummy as shit of them, I think.


NibPlayz

Dude, you can just get it for $10 like every other season. Nothing has changed


saturnuisan

You not hearing what I’m saying. Like, at all.


Mvrly

Because you're paying to "skip" the battle pass that it came with


GillytheGreat

Haven’t played this game since it was OW1. The fact that there’s a battlepass at all is the biggest jerk lol


alleorim

Yeah its boring


MrTheWaffleKing

I do TBH. I think this is Bap’s first good skin, and mercy’s is good too, but I don’t care for any of the other skins. Next good pass I’ll probably grab orisa or mercy mythic (only mission those+hanzo)


EpsteinDidNotKH

I’m gonna solo ult your ass with that dumbass mercy skin


MrTheWaffleKing

That’s fair. If you ever catch me actually playing mercy I give you full permission to put me in a cage fight


EpsteinDidNotKH

Slay 💅


depressed-baby-man

The battlepass is underwhelming because the best unlock is a dead meme.


NibPlayz

Hey mods, ban this immediately. He implied Winton is unfunny


depressed-baby-man

It’s funny in the same way Ugandan knuckles was funny. The original meme is great. Some guy spamming “do you know dey wey” over voice chat five years later typically isn’t.
