I hate these threads.
There are so many ways to pick what games you play. You can read reviews, pop by metacritic and even read user reviews, watch twitch or any other stream service, watch youtube videos (either people playing or "hero" guides) and I am sure there are more ways.
Firstly, you played the beta but for how long? By the sounds of it you got killed once and left.
Second, if you're planning on renting it, why are you asking us about characters? Rent it, pick a person and have a go. I could use all the words in the dictionary but it's kind of meaningless.
I could say "tracer is a quick moving attacker" but how quick is quick? My feeling is, you can't really understand a game till you play it. When you hear "the controls are floaty/clunky" you know what they mean but you don't REALLY grasp how floaty/clunky it feels.
You can watch all the streams and vids or read all the reviews but you'll never really know until you get your hands on, which is what you're doing by renting ... so why are we convincing you to buy it?

I guess I'm the one who gets to play devil's advocate, oh goody.
First thing is, why in the name of sanity would you download and dive into a game you know nothing about? Well no shit you're not going to like it. And why is it our job to school you in a newly released title? Visit the website, learn about the heroes, read up on the lore, watch gameplay trailers, watch cinematic trailers, watch Youtubers play, watch Twitch streamers play. Or do none of it and waste $60 on Battleborn. Or go spend $60 on shoes. Seriously why do people need other people to sell games to them - either you're interested in it or not. Do what the rest of us did and find your own reasons to get into it.
But I may as well contribute some useful information so here you go to start you off [https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/heroes/].

This is true, although Blizzard have made a statement basically saying that all future content in OW will be free. Something that Battleborn refuses to do as they have a season pass.RaikuFA said:
This seems like a decent enough thread to ask this in...
What sort of internet connection / ping does Overwatch require? I ask this because my internet connection isn't the best.
