This is probably a majority of it. You just made a copy paste overwatch. People already played overwatch years ago, it's been. .what? 9 years since overwatch released? Almost a decade of puddle deep gameplay and now the high of a new game has worn off. Same issues as overwatch but without the sunk cost to rationalize playing.
They should transition fast to new original heroes and new type of gameplay with more mechanical options for players. I don't know how the game is today because i quit 2 weeks in from release but even back then the game was a complete clusterfuck of effects, spells, abilities etc.

They have to try the moba map and see if the audience likes it. These heroes have to use their spells on henchmen and thugs and then on other heroes. Items need to be implemented which change spells. Multi-layered maps have to be introduced so that heroes that fly can shine, add traps and debuffs on the maps which get triggered when you step on them or get too close.

This is a warning to never copy overwatch ever again, unless you have a digital environment like blizzard does, and a good history to coast off of. I'm surprised the game lasted this much to begin with, probably because of the character designs being appealing.

It's time to abandon overwatch tier gameplay and turn the game hardcore and give it the depth it needs.

i don't see how it grows, competitive overwatch clone was a dying and saturated market just like battle royales, if they didn't go balls deep into esports like blizzard did with ow before they cucked themselves out of twitch then they don't have any path to recovery other than branching out the gameplay to basically an entire new game like what ow2.0 was supposed to be, i don't know why they locked themselves into overwatch gameplay when its a massive cast of known ip superheroes

Rivals has had a steady playerbase of ~100k for months now.
It has yet to stop being one of the most played games on Steam since it released last year.
It's called FOMO. All games that aren't online casinos for browns lose most of their playerbase over time. Unless some third worlder can make above minimum wage through the in-game economy every game will obviously lose players months after release.
Rivals has lost all these players and its still being played by more people concurrently than 99.9% of the shit on Steam is. Is that what a failed game and dying looks like?
Too bad some of you are retard niggers that take Steam charts as gospel. In no reality is that capeshit hero shooter a dead game yet. And it wont die as long as the alternatives like Apex or OW are worse.

Remove bots from Quick Match. That's it. We all know it's a shit game competitively, but it can still be very fun most of the time. Bot games are a reminder of the skinner box design and make people quit.

i didn't even touch competitive until quickplay became unplayable due to lowlife sweats
this game should just be OW but less focused on balance and more focused on content
add infinite maps, infinite characters, infinite teamups, infinite skins and turn it into a party game
6v6 on the two characters only mode with venom and jeff is probably the last time i had fun with the game outside of fucking about with spider-man and venom in the beta, strange portal shenanigans or the one time an iron man tried to bait my hulk drag so i leap off the edge of the map but i airstrafed away after dragging back on solid land

Balance can be shit and you can theoretically still have fun. Theres zero enjoyment from being forced into a role because a group of 5 genetic defects are placed with you and all want to go 70-0 on DPS.

Team games do not work in 2025 because this generation grew up with action movie protag syndrome and not rank and file valuable cog ethos

It's needed for sentient beings. I shit you not it might sound dramatic but i really did delude myself into thinking the average gamer was reasonable or at least had a presence of mind before i put a few hundred hours into Rivals.

I dont think role queue is going to help a game where you autolose when your healer has the hand eye coordination and vocabulary of a fucking literal parrot or when your DPS have the target acquisition of a newborn puppy

Design issue. If healers weren't utterly required to not have your team instantly die, and healers were truly optional, role queue wouldn't be desired.

Time to kill in this game is way too fucking low.

No one wants to play the same game forever. WoW was some freakish outlier and Skyrim/GTA have the benefit of the modding community keeping things fresh. Every single other game has an expiration date. Live services was a mistake and it will never be a thing people want or hope for.
