My favorite thing in the whole world is when I'm playing heals, I was left defenseless and died because my team just totally ignored my existence, then they start spamming the "I need a heal!" emote.
If you need a heal, go find a friggin' medpack, cos I'm switching to D.Va.
I would say so. Most of the characters are simple enough to understand for a new player and the objectives are pretty straight forward.
At the very least, there's a "vs AI" mode which would work well for people who want to get used to it before jumping into 'regular' multiplayer. It's exactly the same as the main game, except it's players vs bots. I imagine that mode in particular being good if you've not played an FPS before.

Hi, buy, bye
It's the first fps I've played on the pc, and I still play pretty sloppily. I did grow up with games like Perfect Dark, Time Splitters, Halo 3, Gears of War, COD, etc, etc, so I have played a lot of fps's before.
I'd say try team fortress 2 first; it's free and it will show you how you have a feel for fps's on the pc.

Adding onto this, TF2 has a lot of classes VERY similar to the characters in Overwatch so you'd be able to grasp them far easier.
The Engineer is basically Torbjorn
The Medic is basically Mercy
The Scout is basically Tracer/Genji (But far less obnoxious)
The Demoman is basically Junkrat
The Soldier is basically Pharah
etc
Or that tank who constantly asks for heals when you're not healing him.
Like, dude, this isn't an MMO. I'm not your friggin' pocket priest.

tfw you play a healer like zenyatta or mercy and can only heal one dude at a time, and EVERYONE is getting mad at you for not healing when you're healing as fast as you can
And then after you've spent the game running back and forth saving people, you get maybe 1 commend if you're lucky. Feels bad.
Another reason why I prefer Lucio, still mad people but less mad people
Whenever I play Mercy people almost always thank me. But there was a Tracer yesterday that was asking for healing near the enemy base while the rest of the team was near our base with the payload. And he wasn't just spamming the Need Healing emote, he was in the chat going HEAL ME or I NEED HEALTH. You're playing Tracer, just blink on over to a pack to heal yourself, I'm not running across the entire map defenseless just to heal you for 2 seconds.
And I wonder why he even needed healing if he had all of that time to yell at me to heal him.

Ugh those people.
Genjis and Tracers should like never ask for healing unless they're actually near the healer. It's more convenient to just die and respawn than risk your healer going halfway across the map just for you.
There should be an 'emote' for healers where it 'pings' all the health packs on the map and makes them visible through walls to for your team for a few seconds.
It would both generally be a useful thing for your team/healers to have, as well as serve as a "get your own f***ing heal" response to buttholes across the map pestering you to make a special journey to heal them.

So I caved and bought 29 loot boxes and I actually got some really good stuff from them. I got like 6 or more legendary items and I ended up with 2000 coins in the end. I'm probably going to buy the Junebug outfit for D.Va and the Nevermore outfit for Reaper with the coins.

Junkrat is so much fun. Pelting the grenades over stuff and having it bounce around to hit things you couldn't normally is fun, and they do so much damage. Unlocking his chibi/cute spraypaint is really difficult, though, I can't seem to find an opportunity.

I havent been playing much because I have a mental thing with multiplayers but I've have had a lot of fun so far, Pharah/76/Tracer are my favorite offense units and I want to get good with Hanzo/Genji/Widowmaker. Mercy is a pretty fun support to play and I want to learn Lucio.
