Nice going, idiots. All your negativity and bad word of mouth forced Gearbox to cut the price of Battleborn from $75 with the season pass to $40 ($55 on PC) TWO (2) FREAKING WEEKS AFTER RELEASE!

I don't understand why you people can't appreciate a game that takes risks. A game that does something new instead of being a rehash or a sequel. A game that has a vibrant world and one of a kind characters. A game that’s funny and in depth with tons of customization.

I'm starting to think you people don't actually like video games.

Battleborn outside Borderlands 1's launch sales, that's all they beat record wise within the company.

Wildstar ate shit pretty quick and in a spectacular fashion.

"Under no circumstances will we ever go free to play, it's a bunch of overt criticism on these forums that are scaring legitimate views on what we should balance. Just hold on badasses the next patch in inbhound soon and it will rock your world."

Say's a guy from a company who had no PvP preseason, arguably worse balancing then WoW and a PvE system designed for the audience of Vanilla WoW raids who are now 40 year old men with jobs and children.

People who worked on Wildstar should find the nearest sharpest object and kill themselves because for the most part the beta was great and then the released game was a bot infested, unbalanced cirque du soleil of dogshit.

Still, having to go F2P means you fucked up big time.

When games like FFXIV manage to keep an audience paying after a fucking terrible launch, it's amazing that a Star Wars branded game fell to the same lows as DC Universe Online, Firefall, Wildstar and, most likely by 2018, Elder Scrolls Online.

Overwatch.

Why buy store brand coke when you can have the real deal?

This isn't my thinking, just consumer thinking. Blizzard is the trusted, blockbuster brand to the public and to compete with them is brand suicide. They have unimaginable quanities of money for design, marketing etc and it is retarded to go up against them.

They should've released battleborn in 2-3 years when people have fatigue for Overwatch and are at that 'this game used to be good back in the day!' stage.

They're not even the same genre.
Battleborn is a MOBA but in FPS
Overwatch is a character/class FPS
Look, they tried to get some PR by trying to pick a twitter fight with Blizz to which Blizz just said "Chill out bro". For some reason all their trailers make the impression of either a F2P smartphone game or looks like a character/class FPS just like Overwatch.

Again, not the same genre and for some reason it gets compared to Overwatch all the time.
It's a bad game, PR is a big mess and they try to fish in the fucking MOBA market, where every fucking game is F2P and not a 60$+season pass game

That does sound too fucking stupid to do.

Actually, a lot of this sounds like stupid bullshit.

>Make a new IP, even when the IP would fit into your successful IP without changing anything but some background text
>Spend more money on it than any other game you've ever made, even though it's untested
>Give it almost no advertising at all
>Challenges the most hyped game of the year so far, thinking it could take it on without getting shit stomped

These are all fucking retarded ideas. Like, way too retarded.

Is it possible they WANTED Battleborne to fail? It really seems like they do. They could have just made this flop so that they could have a perfect tax write-off.

/v/ doesn't legitimately love Blizzard. There's just been a rash increase of Blizz shills recently. Prior to any substantial Overwatch news, /v/ hated Blizzard. Then one day one of the biggest private servers got shut down and Overwatch started going viral and all of sudden there were dozens of pro-Blizzard threads on /v/ daily asking if Legion was WoW's return to glory and would Overwatch save the FPS genre.

>There's just been a rash increase of Blizz shills recently

Look, the Nostalrius shit went down and there were many threads about it. Nostalrius players were fucking pissed but the majority of /v/ who doesn't really care about WoW anymore thought "Well, that sucks" and maybe posted in a thread or two
So people decided to make fun out of the whole thing and falseflag.

The reason why there was a sudden increase of OW threads is because the Open Beta started and people had fun.
Most people thought it would be shit before, they thought "It's free, I'll give it a try", played it and then "It's fun, I should make a thread on /v/ and talk about it. Maybe I'll buy it"
Blizzard basically released a demo for OW

Also waifus.
Games with (good) waifus get a lot of threads in general.
Before the open beta it was mainly TraceXWidowmaker though and people finally released that Mercy was best Overwatch all along
>>
>>338564625

That was fun.

>>338565092
The culling is a little bit different. The only enemy is the other players, there is a time limit, and the arena shrinks over time.

Keep in mind I've never played it and have just watched bro team stream it sometimes. He seems to like it so it's probably okay.

Black Ops recently got backwards compatibility on the Xbox One and apparently there was a stupid large surge in sales because of that.

You mean Overwatch meme.

All negative points in Overwatch:
-Only PvP
-The community was cancer in the beta (why even play an online game if you only want to shit post or won't even say anything)
-And most importantly this: "Optional real money purchases available." (https://eu.battle.net/shop/en/product/overwatch-origins)

Why do they say "all dlc, addons etc. are free", if you can also pay money in a cash shop. The only reason is, that same items/ characters are so hard to get, that Overwatch is like a P2W game.
The reasons why I bought Battleborn and not Overwatch:
-Battleborn(delux edition) was cheaper than the standard Overwatch edition
-PvE! (And I really like it)
-The PvE with randoms just werks
-5 more heroes for free and free dlcs
-silky smooth on 4k with all settings maxed
-no "Optional real money purchases available." like Blizzard

In GW2 the cash shop should be only for "cosmetics". If you want money for you legendary, you either farm like a retard or use the "only cosmetic" cash shop to get in game money.

I don't know how Battleborn and Overwatch's post-purchase income system works, but all I can say is that once both game gets to the 7-8 months mark, the playerbase will greatly reduce. Do people still play Destiny now?
