Since /v/ is contrarian as fuck does this mean this will become /v/'s winner over Onlywatch?
>>
>>338168847
Nah, the general consensus is that it's garbage. /v/ doesn't like Gearbox, it doesn't help that the game actually is garbage.
>>
The reason /v/ and gamerg*** didn't support this is because Gearbox is literally a pro-feminism company.

Shooting yourself in the foot by openly making a character say "ATTENTION EVERYONE, FEMINISM IS AWESOME" is a good way to make sure none of us play your game.

350 million dollar budget for 4000 players online. Great job.

It just doesnt look that good and honestly my number one question when buying new games targeted at multiplayer is asking my 5 friends, "Are you buying this?" nobody but me had even heard of it. Obvious answer right there.

"All units attention, feminism is awesome!"

Absolutely disgusting but isn't it meant to be ironic when he kills female enemy?

Feminists want equality, right? If anything not shooting someone because they're female is sexism.

this is the better "game"
overwatch is the better "meme" though

battleborn has more content by like 100/1

overwatch is team fortress battleborn is basically borderland swith 30 characters

Gigantic is the real winner here. It's fast, requires skill, has a unique artstyle without being vomit inducing, and doesn't have any waifus for spergs and shills to spam.

I look forward to playing with you fags sometime this fall. It's not longer W10 exclusive, either

Here's some no name on youtube that shows it off. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rk-SmFF0B2U

Also Battlerite is the sequel to Bloodline Champions, that one I'm being optimistically hype for the time being. Not certain when we can play it.

Paragon mite b cool and Lawbreakers looks fun. Otherwise Gigantic is the true winner for me.

>>338176271
I don't get the whole fucking "waifus' thing in games. I prefer character design like roadhog/pharah instead of characters like tracer, I have no idea why people are so obsessed with "quirky" characters, who are only quirky for the sake of being quirky. It's like those tsundere shit, how can people be so interested in these characters since it's always the same way, tsundere is the equivalent of what boys at age 12 do when insulting/bullying girls they like.
>>
>>338176721
Anon, I don't in particular care what kind of attractive character design you have in your game. I just give you credit for having some kind of attractive art style in your game.
Waifus is just one avenue for achieving this goal.

Nearly everything in Battleborn looks like shit to me, and I don't think there's a cohesive style. It looks like they farmed character designs out to different contractors.
>>
>>338177074
I don't even play Battleborn, it's just retarded to think the 5-6 threads on the front page are only there since the game has some fanservice bait waifus, and not the actual game.

Look at Samus/the chick from star ocean 5/peach threads, is that what games will be devolving into in the near future? Huniepop clones?

There is a good game somewhere in battleborn, really. However there is all this bullshit in the way like horrible character design, bad matchmaking, shitty single player design, imbalanced characters, a dying community that is bleeding players, and a pvp filled with asshole trying to play COD. Despite all this there is something in there but as much as I like it come next week I'm jumping ship and so will half its player base. If you are not playing it already there is no reason to get in now, the ship has sailed.

>>338195765
Everything else is valid but the characters are not imbalanced save for that corrupt doomgirl cunt. This is a common complaint but some characters are simply more difficult to play well with.

Even /v/ isn't retarded enough to think Battleborn looks good.

>>338184582
I just feel like Overwatch isn't a 40 dollar game because no dedicated servers or mod potential like TF2 has and TF2 is free.
>>
>>338196023
Well another example is why is there only one tank that doesn't do melee and he so happens to do some of the best dps in game. Try playing a healer when half the characters have one hit kill combos that stun lock people to death. Half the time grabs fail to proc. Why does a melee dps have a silence. Thorn is a sniper that requires you to waste a slot for accuracy. Most characters include really stupid build options, like in orendi's case who doesn't take shield regen, who buffs nullify over shadow tower.

So if I get this game for 30 dollars will it be worth? I know the playerbase is dying, but 4,000 is still pretty good and if a sale happens the players should rise

Whether or not a game is GOOD or not depends on how many threads you see, not the content.
