Thinking of Getting Overwatch, How Is Lag? Player Count? Playing with Local Aussies or Worldwide?

No lag, buy it from the Taiwan battle net shop or Korean one.
Save your money. Skins are for twelvies
Lag depends also on the specs on your pc, so might as well read the minimum requirements and compare it with what you have.
I think he was referring to latency with Overwatch servers. We have Australian servers.
I can't imagine many people have FPS or performance issues because of their hardware these days for these types of arcade games. This isn't a demanding game. No Blizzard game is.
Yep, I bought my game from the Taiwan store. The Korean store is slightly cheaper, but you can't pay with PayPal. If you're worried about region locking, there is none, except for Chinese and Russian games.
As for the skins, I don't think an extra $20 is worth a few skins and characters in other Blizzard games.
I was expecting this thread to go more along the lines of "All that is well and good; but how are the butts?"
We only cover the important things here at OzBargain.

I bought it - non-origins editions. - and enjoying it immensely even though theres only a couple of maps/modes - I trust Blizzard will be adding more later.
If you get it on PC and feel like you need more battlenet friends my username is Mojo6058#1652 (Same goes for anyone else here). Happy for group ups - you get exp bonuses doing so ;)
It's not worth the extra $$..
I bought it off Taiwan BN.
No lag at all. U will be playing on the America server
Its just extra skins. If I believe what my friend tells me she apparently unlocked one using loot boxes. Simple answer is no. Most of the skins you unlock look better than the origins ones anyway.
