The important bit in his article:

Last year, Overwatch 2 received a paid pack of three PvE story missions that sold poorly, according to people familiar with the business, which was a major reason for the cratering bonuses. In January, as part of a company-wide reduction in its work force, the majority of the team behind Overwatch 2’s PvE was laid off.
Overwatch 2 developers were informed that the company does not plan to finish any of the remaining planned PvE content and will instead double down on competitive player vs. player gameplay, according to the people familiar.

    I never played either game, but I’m kinda with you on this. I don’t give a shit about LoL or Valorant, but those get their own spin-off media even though they’re not as popular as Overwatch.

    I kinda love the design of the characters, and I’d love for there to be some possibly animated show or something about it all. Oh well.
