Just convinced a long time friend that just moved back into town, that he should play Overwatch with me. I played back in 2016 at launch, and had a good time, but hadn't played much since then. Recently though, I had picked it up on PS4 and was getting back into it.
I've always loved the character designs, and recently my 2 year old daughter took a liking to Tracer, specifically her Christmas skin (not that I let her see the gameplay itself). So it holds a weird place in my heart.
Last year I convinced the same friend to get into Destiny 2 (and pick up a Black Friday PS4 to do so with). After he purchased, he quickly out leveled me. I fell off. Ever since then, he brings up my abandoning of the purchase I convinced him to make in a joking manner (but not that joking). I don't blame him. I resolve that after that debacle, I'm gonna make a concerted effort to play Overwatch with him. For a few nights, we have good fun...

An epochal shift in how we all view Blizzard takes place.

I am at a crossroads. My friend continues to want to play. To be honest, so do I. I love the game. But I also feel gross about it. On one hand I want to join in with every #fuckBlizzard bone in my body. On the other, I don't want to waste good will with my friend. Abandoning him with yet another game I convinced him to purchase.
Also, I am fatigued. These past few years have in many ways depleted me. Every Trump argument with a family member. Every rally I've attended. Multiple personal trials beyond that.
In this instance, I don't think I can go all in. And in many ways I disgust myself...
