All games are 6v6 and objective based.

So, from what I've seen frantically posted around on the web, Overwatch is essentially a portion of Titan. The art style, classes, and some of the mechanics are parts of Titan. Basically, it looks like the removed the persistent world aspects of Titan out, focusing instead on the Objective Based shooter portion of the game play and making it a much smaller project.

And speaking of art style, God damn it is great. I'm sure a bunch of people are going to get their panties in a knot over the ascetic because they didn't go gritty or hyper realistic but it is another prime example of Blizzard making an essentially timeless art design.

The game play itself looked very polished, very tight. Classes looked varied and interesting. Maps seemed relatively free flowing depending on class, vertically, scaling, some instances of flight.

Also Tracer is now my new Waifu. Her play style looked super fun, with some type of time travel back tracking ability. Game legit looks extremely good.

It has to be taken from Titan if it's already semi-playable.

Oh it looks more than semi-playable. Like, seriously, the level of polish from what I saw was kind of fucking crazy.

Is he seriously referencing Gamer Gate...or something else?

I think he was talking about the DDOS of battle.net

Greater rift pylon changes: they are increasing speed pylon to go for 1 min, will boost all other pylons to make them as powerful as pylons for GR.

They expect to make pylons be around 2-4 per rift. They want to improve monster density in all low rifts.

Rift guardians will be changed on their mechanics to make them memorable. They are not going to remove a bunch of things to make GR bland and fair, but to modify those that don't work out well. They are also changing level distribution.
