plenty of games have made the transition from paid to f2p and lots of those have also been acompanied by large overhauls/patches. none of them i remember have had as large a backlash as overwatch did.

As of April 2022, Blizzard had apparently sold over 50,000,000 copies of Overwatch. That is over 50,000,000 copies now gone. Of course you’re going to hear a LOT of complaints.
Were any of those other games as big as Overwatch? Were they as successful as Overwatch?
Lots of companies switch games around. Many times it’s because they are financially hurting or otherwise need a way to increase funding.
Blizzard had a massive hit and also promised updates to make the game even better.
After years and years of promising this, Blizzard basically told all their customers psych.
Not only was the big PvE mode not coming, they very game they were already playing all these years was also going away.
