Can’t we just have both lightning for every map? Come on
Minimal change. Could have changed a lot more to make the maps more balanced.
The orange treatment makes me feel like I’m playing in a Sunday afternoon, makes me want to yawn. Annoying
i fucking love love LOVE new night oasis, i hated the evening setting or the time of day in the oasis in OW1 but no now i love oasis
hope you realize that the maps arent just being changed there's multiple time of days
Watched all your ow vids, I really like your clean editing and soothing voice, plus genuinely interesting topics! This is making me interested in ow again >.>
maP
Overwatch 2 lookin like Orangewatch 2 instead.
3 mins later, just realized he used that joke at the end 😐
I loved having dark maps. Kings Row, Dorado, Lijiang. I much prefer the OW1 lighting, not only for those maps but for almost all of them. Ilios looks significantly worse.
Overwatch 2 is just overwatch but with Haywood's Mexico shader
Most of the maps look like they were made in Mexico
your videos are so well made dude
Everywhere is now Mexico. Every map that had been oranged now is canon in breaking bad.
4:34 i hate this change, i enjoyed the freshness it had… now its way too orange
I hate that new Kings Row lighting from the deepest part of my heart
the maps are not downgraded, its simply a preview on how different maps will look with time change sometimes u will play route 66 at night and sometimes at high noon
the sun is orange what's the problem here XD
This is all change for the sake of it and it took them no effort whatsoever. Each map was designed from scratch to look a certain way since the concept art phase and changing the lighting completely destroys most of them except Dorado, which looks good during the day too. The ones that make the sadder are Oasis, Route 66 and Illios – they banished those maps to the shadow realm with how bad they look now.
Built in blue light decrease… thanks ow for caring for our eyes.
While I do agree the Route 66 lighting change clashes with the "concept" of the map, I still love it as I love every night time desert/mesa setting, something about them just makes my heart at peace. I also agree that it would have benefitted tremendously from a dawn/dusk setting and general orangeification
Mexico filter
orangewatch =(
A recent Gamespot interview with Aaron Keller showed Numbani played at daytime with rather vibrant looking colors, though like many have said maps might have different times of day available
Eichenwalde, Kings Row & ilios makes me want to throw up
part of me wants rain in the game only if they can do it non intrusivly tho
Tldr
Orange + orange = bad
Orange + blue = bad
Blue + orange = good
Blue + blue = good
Most of the changes just feel like change for the sake of change without any reason behind it. It honestly ruins what it felt like the map originally was supposed to be.
Orangewatch 2
Not only does Ilios have 2 suns but the greek word for sun is Ilios. Super orange version of Ilios for overwatch 3 confirmed?
I hate orange.
It would be good if the sky light change a bit in every minute of game by randomly select the start time of each game
Well i dont like the orangefication

Overorange 2
I guess we know what the overwatch 2 art director's favorite color is
Overwatch content be so dry that mfs be making videos on fucking lighting
can you do overwatch 1 beta vs overwatch 1 current lighting changes?
Wheenever i see ow1 beta footeage it looks soft and the lighting/shading is different than what it is now. explain?
everything is just orange what
Thank you for this video!
Orangewatch 2 lookin good
Orangewatch
i kinda wish it was just a light cycle instead of permanently changing the maps
The new lighting is terrible tbh, all the maps have the same washed out sunset vibe
the way this guy talks and mispronounces map names is weird and cringey
you sound like sam o nella, hmmmm
My favorite map is Kings Row and they butchered it 😫
i like the new lightings, i've never really cared about it changing.
