Does this game need more aim skills than Overwatch?

[Mister Father]

Or nah

Overall, you need a lot less in this one.

[C.D. Mann]

A lot less, this is more of a third person melee/projectile game with some hitscan characters.

[Valvatorez(Cox Cable = awful ISP]

90% of all shooters need more aiming skills than Overwatch.

Yeah, this, there are more viable melee or non-aiming characters in this game than Overwatch. Aim is still useful, but it more opens up the number of characters you can play than anything.

Less. A lot of the heroes are melee and turrets are common.

Who's got a turret other than Namor? (not counting Punisher since he needs to aim his)

Id say its relatively similar. Its just getting used to the 3rd person over FPV. Its not exactly the same but id say neither is harder really when talking about raw aim mechanical skill.

nonsense, overwatch is relatively aim intensive, there's no movement accel, there's multiple types of aim involved, time to kill is relatively high, characters have widely varying hitboxes with a lot of movement- flying, ground strafe, blink, large arcing jumps. you don't know what you're talking about.

Loki and Groot are the most obvious. They don't auto attack but they multiply your damage. There's also Moonknight that puts down an ankh that auto targets if you have trouble with fine aiming.

I'd argue you need more. Enemies take so long to kill you have to keep your gun on them far longer. Keeping your crosshair on target for the entire magazine is harder than burst fire.

Zarya is the hardest for me to use, but compared to other FPSes i've played, most overwatch heroes are basically Zaryas.

I've played quite a few more online FPS games and Overwatch is the hardest. The TTK is just too long.
