That's awesome. I'd like to think part of the reason for its success is its availability across all platforms. =)
Also, sexy sells.

Yet they could only add 2 maps a year after release?

How much did Project Titan cost them? Obviously this is a massive success spun out from a pretty big loss, curious to see how much so though. I know it was rumored to have been 50-100 million, so that's a pretty significant turn around.
Let it stay. Their business model is the best I have encountered for post game content.
Thats how these games work, I use that same logic / reasoning with Destiny. For some people it's overwatch, some is halo, I'm sure some is mass effect 3 mp. Any game that offers continued support, service, dlc and cosmetic loot boxes, people will always dump money that could be spent on other games is now being spent on just that one game.I buy 50 loot boxes every event. Overwatch has saved me a ton of money on games that I would otherwise be buying, if I wasn't addicted to OW.
one thing hots does you can reroll your lootbox if you don't like it. but with how big OW is i see it will never come to OW.
Examples which include....?
Rainbow 6 Siege has 6 free DLC maps now with a 7th coming within the next month or so and all of them except Favela have been well received.
Not to mention games which actually do have paid maps, the Halo DLC maps were usually pretty good back when I played and all of the Battlefield DLC maps are pretty great as well.
fifty percent of that amount is my fault
So Tracer skins for every event for ever?
I'm ok with that.
But Blizzard better get their shit together about the appalling lack of good Zaria skins.

right on the moneyLoot box is here to stay.
They still need to tweak the system like increasing the gold you get from dupes.
Uh that's not how it works. You wouldn't call Eichenwalde 3 maps because it has 3 points.
I don't like loot boxes but I cannot deny they are most certainly money makers.

Oasis counts as a single map.
They also added Antartica and they also worked on and released two PvE events.

I don't understand buying cosmetic stuff for games at all. Like at all. Like spending money on loot boxes for random non-real items, it is just unfathomable to me. I felt dumb for spending free Google Play credit on hearthstone packs.
Maybe it's because I was raised poor. I can't fathom spending more than $30 on a meal at a restaurant either. But people do that too.
I'm not even that thrifty (another side effect of not having shit when I was a kid). There are just 8,000 other things I would rather waste my money on. Books. Movies. Electronics. A good meal out, even (just not too much). Stuff for my kids. Hell, real gambling would be better, at least you might win money in the end.

Oasis maps are great. Overwatch doesn't have a bad map imo, especially if you use the entire roster.
close to 700hours and no lootboxes bought.
WINNING!

I expect with them making so much money from it, they should increase the team size and speed up new content.
OW's maps are pretty bad
The problem isn't the maps, its that escort and attack/defend are terrible game modes compared to capture. The maps are fine, they just aren't as fun to play as capture maps because of the game mode. Escort can be fun, but only with six people in a party on mic.
