Seems great, a much cleaner exciting version of TF2, which I also love. And with the same kind of after-launch support Blizzard is famous for it seems like a great buy. Unfortunately I think I've blown my gaming budget for the next year in the last 4 weeks so I'll wait a bit longer despite sale.
D.VA seems like a good beginner hero, won my first and only 2 MP games with her. Not many abilities or weapon modes to worry about, just shoot/shield/fly/self destruct! The interplay of different character abilities is super fun, like an FPS fighting game combined with heroes of the storm. I can see why this was/is such a big deal. Good stuff. Valve better be careful, if they go F2P and start selling hats for this or make a horde/mann vs machine type mode they are in trouble.
Agree with D.VA begin a good starter. Mei is also a good one, aim isn't that important (think pyro) and she has good survivablility. Soldier 76 is pretty straight forward and while he's a hit-box hero he has survivability with his heal. And Mercy is probably the easiest healer, she plays like Medic in TF2, but she's more at the mercy (harharhar) of her teammates' battle awareness than the other healers.
I've played a lot of McCree, I like the character, but I also do it to force myself to learn how to aim again. I do feel like he's lacking when compared to some of the other characters, I understand he got a pretty sizable nerf a few months ago, maybe they wnerfed a bit too much, or maybe he just has a high skill cap.
Anyways, been having a blast with the game for a few weeks now.

Manga pos for the kids
I'm not sure, but over the last several days I've gotten the feeling Luke doesn't like Overwatch. Probably just my imagination.
