It's not like anyone at Gearbox can dig a grave for the game either. They're either too busy complaining about goobergate on twitter, or they have their head shoved so far up their ass it would be physically impossible for them to dig a grave.

No, I won't buy Battleborn, I'm preordering Overwatch for that sweet Widowmaker skin. But it doesnt change the fact that so many people poured their precious waking hours into this game only for it to bomb like this.

They fucked up, and the deserve what's happened.

The game's UI and gameplay is fucking atrocious, I actually got a refund on it after a friend bought it for me, and I gave him his money back, and we decided to play TF2 instead.

We decided to play a decades old half-assed FPS with shit hit-boxes and a butt-fuckingly-retarded community, instead of Battleborn, so let that sink in.

Battleborn isn't bad if you actually figure out how the game works

Don't believe people when they say Battleborn is fun. It was probably one of the worst purchases I've made this year, and I bought a bottle of water that gave me fucking mono.

The game is clunky as shit, the designs, while unique are VERY off-putting. They just don't flow together, everything is designed to be different and doesn't mesh together well.

The game straight up plays like a first person moba. Yea I get it, mobas are popular, maybe its a good idea to combine a FPS and a MOBA, the hot shit games right now.

WRONG. The only reason people play ANY type of moba is because its FREE. 80% of the player base is fucking BR's and Russians just trying to play video games because of how fucking stupid their countries laws and currency value is.

But the worst part is the fucking trophies. I SURE LOVE BEING BLINDED FOR 10 FUCKING SECONDS WHILE YOU SHOW ME THAT I ACHIEVED SOMETHING A PARAPLEGIC COULD DO THEN FUCKING DYING CAUSE I COULDN'T SEE SHIT.

ITS NOT LIKE THE HUD ISN'T ALREADY A MASSIVE CLUSTERFUCK ALREADY.

No. They tried to combined an FPS with a MOBA, the two most popular genres right now. The only reason MOBA is even considered a game is because poorfags like myself can play it for free.

You don't take two things people like that they can get for free, mash it together into some horrid mess, then charge money for it.

Look at these fucking jarring saturated colors everywhere, this is what happens when you hire shitty concept artists that cant come up with a single good color scheme for the entire game.

As far as I can tell most of the Overwatch hype and discussion comes from it being a Blizzard IP or people vehemently defending it against 2007's Team Fortress 2,

I know exactly how you feel, but in this case I have no sympathy because gearbox are scum, not unlucky underdogs.

That's my point. You're exactly the audience the beta was looking for. Didn't expect much so try it in your own time. Not:
>Try our game in this timeslot for this amount of time on this date to see if you even enjoy it
That's shit marketing 101.

Everything would've been ok desu if they didn't make tweet internet posts related to Overwatch.

>Wouldn't a pay wall divert the shit players who usually come to MOBAs and make the play experience actually good?
No because his entire point is that mobashit is fucking awful and the only reason people play it is because their poverty makes them unable to play anything else, which is entirely true.
>>
>>338082559
Battle born is not even bad and we all know it, but it seems pointless to buy it with the open beta experience and Overwatch releasing a week after BBs launch.

I would've bought BB if it was around 30$ or if it was a at least a month before OW release.

Does anybody feel the same way?
>>
>>338095771
You can literally buy it for 30$ on CDkeys.

Where did it go so wrong?

This.

I knew nothing about over watch and didn't care because I normally don't play shooters. Then the open beta started and everyone started talking about how fun it was which got me to try it

>tfw you will never experience erotic asfixiation by those legs

i mean, you can have fun with it all you want. but that doesn't mean battleborn isn't a huge fucking dawngate level disaster of game design. its a mess from beginning to end. its fucked.

enjoy it while you can sir.
>>
>>338093785
>pretty important

yeah i mean its not like it was the biggest, most successful beta ever or anything.

i fucking hate blizzard but the numbers don't lie. overwatch, good or bad, is crushing it.
>>
I was going to try the beta.

>que up download
> watch quick look on giant bomb
>looks like shit
>looks like it plays exactly like boarder lands which I don't like
> learn it's full price with a season pass
>learn you have to unlock Heroes in a full $60 game
>the single player is only a few missions that are boring as shit

I deleted the beta after that. Not even worth the data
>>
Its really shitty how Overwatch is beating it because of juvenile fan service. Battleborn has more originality and soul. Video games are like the movie industry. Fans say they are tired of the same thing and want something new but they really dont.
>>
>>338098710
what has more soul then butts? tell me
>>
>>338098710
>Battleborn has more originality and soul.

if by originality and soul you mean cluttered visual and mechanical design, then yeah, sure. its definitely got that.

its trying to do too god damn much. its too busy and doesn't even produce a competent shooter, let alone get any of the "moba" elements right.

overwatch is simple, sleek, and yes, has more fan service. regardless, its not trying to be too much. its keeping it simple and guess what -- simple isn't a bad thing. it sells.
>>
>>338098710
There's a season-pass with battleborn

Overwatch DLC will be free.

>>338098710

>>338098927

Battleborn chracters have personality and the jokes are great. Overwatch characters are extremely safe and boring because of it. Its selling only because of the females. Nobody gives a shit about the males and thats terrible because it prevents the industry from moving forward and being treated with more respect and maturity. But Blizzard and Activision dont give a shit. They only care about money.
>>
>>338082559
I feel like instead of fucking over Battleborn, Overwatch being constantly compared to it has given it greater exposure.

Thing is, it's a MOBA and not a shooter. I don't like MOBAs and I don't know that most of Overwatch's audience does either.
>>
I got a solid 35 hours out of it. I'm fine with that, cause I got it for $37 on a key site.

I enjoyed unlocking all the characters and getting Silver on all the story missions. That's an experience I enjoyed and I can't get in Overwatch.

I am probably done with it, but I don't regret buying it. I had fun with it.

>the characters feel fun.
I put a great deal of hours into the beta and I've never had fun with any of the characters. they are all bland to play.
>>
>>338099230
At least the Overwatch characters are fappable.

You are a fucking idiot. How are the characters a mess?

And this is edgy to you?

You are just a moron parroting /v/ memes to fit in.

must have been playing a different game since they nerfed her for being so good at roaming and that's still what she got used for until the end
>>
>>338093785
Yep. I watched a few streams before and was bored of it so I didn't bother checking it out. Then some friends told me they had an open beta and convinced me to download it... next thing I know I clocked in 40 hours by the end of it.

For how jew Blizzard are, I have to admit this was great marketing.

Why is Battleborn compared to OW anyways? Shouldn't it be compared to Paragon?

>>338099737
yep

>>338100161
>You are just a moron parroting /v/ memes to fit in.
Just like your criticism of OW?

It's unfortunate that Battleborn came out anywhere near the time Overwatch was coming out.

Gearbox should have released it a lot sooner, or later.

From Gameinformer's negative BB review

"From a ninja mushroom with healing fungal powers to an insane robotic BUTLER sniper..."

didn't even play the game, just got paid to spout memes by blizzard.

No one is taking about a shaper, you dumb cunt. I'm talking about the predator role being fucking useless and gimping god knows how many strategies because it simply didn't give enough rewards for how much you had to wander around.

It was like that FOR MONTHS and the game died before they could even fix the thing.

>meme parody of fps UI
I don't like battleborn but when will this meme about this meme being about the UI end? That meme isn't about the UI itself but the content. The UI is being used to describe a scenario where every despised FPS trope is happening at once. While this includes the clutterd UI it is not a meme about fps UIs
>>
Honestly all those Gearbox tweets and faggy Randy attitude made me not support this game or any of their future games.
>>
>>338101318
Feel the same way about overwatch
>>
>>338101206

You do realize the stuff in the battleborn ui is reflecting the content too right? Also I would say content generally breeds UI due to not knowing how to get it across the player properly therefore cluttering the screen like the fucking meme image actually entails right in front of you.

Overwatch have actual skill cap unlike BattleBorn
>>
No D.VA
No buy.
>>
>>338100471
It's sad, because they're not even that much alike gameplay wise.

Battleborn has core moba ARTS aspects and it's style of long games (of which the stalemates get rather tedious) while Overwatch is fastpaced as fuck with a sprinkle of hero-based games.

I prefer Overwatch's aesthetics and setting way over Battleborn's shit humour. It's just overdone.

>You do realize the stuff in the battleborn ui is reflecting the content too right?
That is true but that isn't the point of the image, this is emphasized by the fact it is in french. So you end up with an image on the left about unpopular tropes in shooters being compared to an image that is just showcasing a bad UI
>>
>>338094845
Yup, they added content to make it less shitty, and next to nothing post game content but it is a God damn grindfest, ironically the PC fanbase is divided between absolute twats, and really swell guys.
