Did I miss out by not playing Overwatch?

Post Body

When Overwatch first came out, I had expressed some interest in it due to it getting rave reviews and being almost unanimously considered the best game of 2016. However, my biggest reason for expressing interest would be because Team Fortress 2 is one of my favorite games of all time, and I heard through the grapevine that Overwatch is akin to TF2. A few years after it came out, I played it for the first time at PLAYlive Nation (it's like an arcade but with video game consoles instead of arcade cabinets and you pay for time, not to play), and I thought it was alright.

The match I remembered playing involved capturing points (like Control Point in TF2). Since I thought it was just alright, I didn't feel a need to come back to it. Some time later, I watched a video from RabbidLuigi about great video games that aged badly and he put Overwatch at number 1 and from what I recall, it was because of the addition of new characters that weren't in the original roster, which disrupted the game balance. He even mentions going back to TF2 because of this (among other reasons).

I'm not even interested in trying Overwatch 2 because I'm typically not a fan of F2P games and I prefer to play games that have received a finalized reason (i.e. version 1.0), but I'll have to play if I want to play Overwatch since the original can no longer be played.
