This has to be the most retarded release timing ever on Gearbox's end, like, even more than UT3 releasing weeks before TF2, or fuck, Fortress Forever releasing weeks before TF2

They probably thought their shit didn't stink after the world lied to them about Pre-Sequel not sucking, and this is their Icarus moment powered by feces-molded wings

I didn't bother with Battleborn because at last year's E3 (While waiting for the Fallout 4 trailer with everyone else) they had a presentation for Battleborn that looked so ugly and clunky and boring that I wouldn't even consider researching the game in the future. They should have waited until they had a real product on their hands.

I guess it's for the best that a cuck company like Gearbox bites the dust.

>>338597228
It's not even a matter of hating SJWs or whatever. Gearbox are literal scumbags. They're the best example of a developer being complete shit. It's to the extent where they've blatantly committed crimes before, and have done shady shit that could potentially be crimes.

How so? Both of these instances are Blizzard actively going after them, this isn't Gearbox badly timing, it's Blizzard shifting to mess up their launches.

Overwatch beta was scheduled for mid May, closer to release. Randy started shit on twitter so Blizzard moved it to May 3rd, Battleborns launch day to bury it under Overwatch beta press. This clearly worked, because you can find oceans of people who didn't even realise Battleborn released.

Blizzard then announced Overwatch going live globally at midnight on the 24th of May local time (PST for them). Gearbox retorted by announcing a new character releasing on that day. 3 hours after Gearbox announced it, Blizzard shifted the release back to the evening of the 23rd their local time to drown their new hero in Overwatch release day press.

Randy arrogantly bit off more than he could chew and Blizzard is gladly fucking DESTROYING them in response.

I don't give a fuck about battleborn or gearbox, although I have enjoyed some of the shit they've made. I liked borderlands and borderlands 2 - but can't say I really follow them much otherwise.

Blizzard really fixed Gearbox's little red wagon.
It is beautiful.
>>
>>338598437

This may be hard for you to grasp as the hivemind tells you to hate it, but BL2 was Gearbox's biggest success and has a large following and that series makes up almost all of Gearbox's entire fanbase today.

This is where Gearbox was just objectively, literally retarded business wise. There have been endless calls for BL3 ever since The PreSequel disappointed a lot of people. Gearbox devs (Might have been randy, big shock) basically said fuck you to their fan base and said Battlleborn was coming first and BL3 would be shelved in the mean time, and were quite big assholes in responding to fans about it.

Battleborn cost more than BL1 + 2 combined to make, and it flopped catastrophically and they've alienated a lot of their fanbase in the process.

They had a sure bet financial success option in making BL3, but instead turned around and spit on their (shrinking) fanbase and made this disaster instead, for likely a higher budget than BL3 would have cost.

This transcends just shitty game design and asshole CEOs like Randy Pitchford, this was a top to bottom series of retarded choices.

Oh this meme again.

Go back and watch/read all the old Titan lore related info from when it was first being talked about and cross reference that with the time Activision bought Bungie.

Titan was Destiny, they covered it up under the guise of it being an MMO to keep it under wraps and to justify moving devs off of other Blizzard games without enraging people.

Destiny released and suddenly, out of nowhere, Titan was "Cancelled"

I'll admit that I really don't like hip hop, but christ with fries there was no flow between the music and animation. It was distracting and nothing was focused. Had no fucking clue what the game was about.

Calling it a mid-2000's newgrounds video is insulting to mid-2000's newgrounds sonce back then making a fuck-up like that would get you shitpoor scores.
