>It’s one of the few Gearbox Software-developed games released since 2009 that isn’t Borderlands, the other two bring Aliens: Colonial Marines and whatever was left of Duke Nukem Forever. Don’t worry, it’s better than those.

Battleborn is not only wildly popular but critically acclaimed. So why aren't you playing Battleborn today?

I'll bite. How is Battleborn anything like Overwatch? One is a class based FPS hero shooter with single player and co-op with full leveling and custom loadouts along with MOBA-esque elements. The other is a casual shooter with everything unlocked on day 1.

It's amazing how sites and people will absolutely go out of their way to shill for a game, as long as they deem to not have any "problematic" content, like waifus n shit. The quality matters absolutely none, as long as your game isn't problematic, it will shilled for by these people.

BB is one of the worst video games i have seen in a long time.
It keeps the awful shooting and style of Borderlands, maintains that patented, cringe-inducing "humor" that Gearbox is known for, but takes out the only element of Borderlands that was at all unique: the guns.

The game is stylistically ugly, the characters are either extremely generic or incredibly over designed with no in-between, and the gameplay is laughably shallow.

I don't know what the fuck is up with the recent increase in shilling or fake shilling or what the fuck ever this is, but it's fucking obnoxious, especially when you choose to do it for such a painfully shit game

I once had a conversation with a game dev developing some shitty RPG, I asked him about what type of gameplay he's going for but he said the focus is the story and not so much the gamplay. I told him that if he doesn't put any effort in the thing people are playing for, it's gonna die and eventually people won't be half-assed to play his game like he half-assed his combat. He called me a "Generic gamer" and told me that gameplay is a thing that's being worn out because it's a concept "already been done to death."

I fear for future game development.

It's not my fault the bean counters were retarded and decided to release the game right next to Overwatch.

I'm not even saying Overwatch is a better game, I'm just saying that they should have known better than to go up against Blizzard hype. Their once "might have stood on it's own" game will get swallowed in Overwatch hype and be forgotten.

>Different taunts
>Different lines they say while doing it
>Each character has interactions for who they are fighting, even themselves.
>Number of lines for different situations.

For how rough of a game it is, there definitely is a lot more interaction and personality (whether you like them or not) in Battleborn compared to Overwatch's sterile interaction.
Usually all you get in Overwatch is a starting interaction between two characters and an occasional line while fighting (like playing Winston and killing someone with a Tracer nearby has her go "Wow your an animal Winston!" but not 5 seconds later she said the exact same line again).

>>337926995
Gearbox did almost no marketing for the game so of course its going to get compared to other hero shooters instead of a moba. Hopefully it goes free to play and bulks up the playerbase a bit more because besides its faults its a decently fun game.

Just in the designs of some of the characters. You can see one prime example in the OP's image; not pictured is the fact that she also has heterochromia. That kind of special snowflake design style shows up in other characters too, not necessarily aligning with the common SJW style, but certainly within the same circle of tastes.

how did i know the "heh, back in my day, kid..." reply was coming. and this "kid" used to play arcade games by the quarter just to unlock characters that would be gone the next time i played. battleborn is not the type of game that needs unlockable characters, expecially not in this day and age.

but then again most people ok with unlockables are kids with alot of free time so its understandable that you're ok with it

No duh. It's like the SJWs believe we're forced to buy into things with sexy women when the fact is, the reason devs of any media put that shit in there is because it fucking works.

Exactly. Playing the game felt like I was doing a chore and I had no real sense of what I was contributing to the overall match.

>>337919692
They are nothing alike aside from being shooters.
They play different in every single way and provide completely different content in different amounts (in which battleborn gives you much much more bang for buck).
No idea why people would compare both games, simply because they're coming out in a close period of time.
