Fun game and well made. I suggest Soldier 76.

Soldier is a great opening pick.  But try and get good with a more complex character.  This game has so many layers, without complimenting team picks, you'll get rolled.  Too many tanks and no DPS and you'll lose.  No healer? you'll lose.

Thoughts on the game - Quick play can be frustrating especially if you're playing solo as always seem to end up on the team of window lickers.  In a group of 3 or 4 (or more) and the game is a lot more fun.  It is a bit of a grind to hit level 25 but competitive opens up and the game is great to play most of the time.

As for a character to start with, I think this depends on what games you have come from previously.  If other FPS games then Soldier 76 as he is closest to a traditional FPS character.  Some of the issue with Overwatch is that it can be difficult to switch characters as you need to play a number of matches to get used to each characters abilities and different firing types.

Fun and extremely polished game but requires a lot of hours of master. Success depends on your own ability of being able to play a variety of characters with lots of differing functions and abilities. You will need to learn every character and everything they do to get the most out of the game and that is by no means an easy task even with tens of hours of play. No matter how good you become; you will still be relying on your team and that can be very hit and miss. 

This game will definitely be around for the next decade and getting into it as soon as possible is highly recommended but to get the most out of it; you'll need to do a lot of homework and be very patient and forgiving.

Best FPS game out right now really. It can be very annoying at times as success to a degree depends on your team mates coughgrebothcough but as a whole super polished, excellent game play, generally very well balanced.
