Overwatch's anniversary event has come under quite a bit of fire over the last few weeks. While the nostalgic modes were a hit, fans have complained that the rewards are simultaneously not good enough and too much of a grind, and they're not wrong.

While the anniversary loot boxes weren't too bad—allowing players a chance to get everything on offer with no duplicates over the three weeks—the player titles were a slog. The rare title required you to complete 24 anniversary challenges, the epic needed 36, and the legendary needed a whopping 48.
