I feel like when they were designing the characters for this game they just had like 1 idea for a fun thing and that was the character. Like, with roadhog they had the idea for the hook and that was it. The problem with this is that roadhog now IS the hook. There isn't really anything else to do with him, so you just waddle around the objective, soaking some damage and then hook someone. When you do, you get your little dopamine rush and that's it. There isn't any learning how to play roadhog, getting better, learning about positioning, or evolving your gameplay like some other games I can think of. (R6, literally any fighting game) No, you just f* press r1 and have your brainless fun. The only thing that keeps it from getting stale is the fact that there are quite a few characters so you can swap to whichever type of brainless fun you want to have at any moment. For this, and because there is still enjoyment to be had, just not a very deep enjoyment, this game gets a 6/10 from me.
