Flats Reacts To Doctor Mike Playing Overwatch 2

@anderssingstad4068 like I said, casual player. Probably took a long break in the time ow2 released. He has videos on his channel playing ow1 and talking about it. Also he's saying here they feel like the same game, which they are let's be real.

This is NOT a crossover I was expecting, but I'm SO hyped! Also, for those who don't know, Doctor Mike's made a couple other Overwatch videos years ago, so if you want more, check those out!

[@patrickimperial579]

Might wanna google what a crossover is

[@SauceyRedHN]

@ Crossover was the first word that came to mind that was closest to what I meant to say. There isn’t really a word that means “a creator that talks about and/or reacts to another creator,” or a word that fits better than crossover. At least none that I can think of right now. I was too lazy to write something like “I was NOT expecting to see Flats, an Overwatch streamer, react to Doctor Mike, who makes medical videos, which are two entirely different things and from two very different parts of KZbin.” I’m exaggerating a bit but I hope you get the point. Also, people understand what I mean, and other people use the term the way I did, language is ever evolving, and sometimes it doesn’t make sense (e.g. “literally” literally not being used with its original meaning, like, half the time).

[@nicholaskillmeier4895]

there's a straight up widow counter in every class. it's just a dumb complaint. the only reason people complain is because they won't switch. you've been brainwashed into thinking you're playing a character. you're not, you're playing a role. and if you're getting stomped by widow, part of the game is knowing when to change your kit.

[@CyberianFaux]

@@nicholaskillmeier4895 The best widow counter, old sombra, has been nerfed to the ground. Now, the best widow counter is widow. That is a problem. Sniper characters do not work in OW's format. She can't go anywhere though because she is an original character. The only way I know to fix widow is to change her from a sniper character to a Marksman's Rifle character so you can keep her original weapon model.

Didn't expect so many people to be surprised that Doctor Mike plays Overwatch. This is his third video he's done playing the game, and he's mentioned it in other videos too. I'm not even one of his subscribers but I've heard him talk about his rank from videos in my recommended.

[@noahslife_mms]

I’m so glad you reacted to his video!

[@SamuraiPipotchi]

Seeing Dr. Mike play was SO odd, because it's obviously so different to how people inside the Overwatch sphere treat the game. Dr. Mike is probably an example of how most people treat gaming, but the rest of us never see it because they're not as reminally online as the rest of us

[@comixfan]

As an Xbox Overwatch player I can definitely confirm that the voice comms in this video are a) extremely rare to have in the first place and b) way more positive than the typical voice comms when they happen! Typically its text chat flaming/abuse/horrendous stuff all game (using spaces or periods to get around the chat filter) and voice comms is only ever heard when one of your teammates comes into vc towards the end of the game to flame the team.

[@cc-mu1oq]

As someone who is also an Xbox player, especially a plat support, I have to agree with this

I just wanted to thank the editor for listening to the constructive criticism and making the chat box only a tiny corner, it's so nice to be able to see everything he's watching and not miss any little moments because they're hidden. this size feels like a nice balance between still including chat so we can see what he's reading, but also no longer intrusive/obstructive to the content

[@neonleon9285]

Is it wrong that I kind of want the tiny chat box to stay attached to the bottom of Flat’s face cam? It just kind of bothers me a tiny bit that it’s obscuring the ability cooldowns 😅

As a console player I usally don’t like the take of console plat is Pc silver but everyone knows open queue is 10000 times easier and I’ll actually agree that open queue console plat is most likely silver

[@chris61986]

It's not too far off, but maybe a little exaggerated. You may not like it, but the game sense of players in those ranks doesn't match the equivalent PC rank. Console ranks are inflated.

[@ScarlettHat]

I'd agree. I've played console OW since 2016 but I decided to try out PC and see how hard it was for this exact argument. For console with around 3000 hours of playtime at the time I was barely reaching mid high plat. On PC I got ranked in 3 days and climbed from mid plat placement to high diamond within a week of being placed. Idk maybe I'm the exception, but PC was so easy I hated it and went back to console. Nowadays though I don't really touch overwatch outside of giggles with the wife.
