Is this the fastest deepest sale for a "AAA" game ever?

It spawned in silicon valley and infected most of the companies there, then the rest of the professional sector for a few excruciating years, but they were also the first to recover and "get over it".
Video games are hybrid amateur software/entertainment, so it's the last to pick up the scrum disease due to low talent, and it's sadly never going to un-fuck because of the demands of entertainment.

Battleborn, its like overwatch, but better, with borderlands humor. It's like the kind of game you can play in he following situations;
When family are visiting
When you call in sick for work
When you wife wants your attention
When your daughters are watching frozen
When your mates come over with beer
When your dog is sitting in the same room as you farting and it smells but the game is too good to turn away from, so you just sit there pretending you did the fart so its somewhat bearable.

This game is great for all occasions.

Battleborn 10/10

>average game programmer > average business app programmer
That may have been true a decade ago, but the exodus of talent from the gaming sector has been a massive boon to the professional sector.

We've got former game programmers who worked on engine architecture and even USB drivers for custom in-house peripherals now programming specialized CAD applications for the medical sector and they now get paid overtime.

Game development is so unattractive these days, and the professional sector so wide-open, that any programmer worth their salt can look around and find work with better pay and benefits almost immediately.

You're still fucked if you're a web or mobile dev, but that's not real programming.

you're wrong about that, even when a game is shit and you know its shit you still do your job as best as you can and hope that some people will be able to get enjoyment out of it. But when a game flops there are likely to be cuts at the studio so you have to start looking for a new job.

You do know that blizz only changed release date of beta to match their launch simply because gearbox tried to start shit with them on twitter, right?

Two games with roughly the same genre. One is so insecure that it has to be backed by a massive ad campaign to try and sell it, the other had relatively little marketing and let the gameplay sell the game. The one with the aggressive marketing campaign tried to act tough by trying to shit on the one selling it's game through good, solid gameplay instead of ads. The second one responded not with insults of shitty banter, but by changing the release of it's open beta to coincide with the other game's official launch.

Now the first game is clinging to life while the second is thriving.

Overwatch is a better game than Battleborn m8. Hands down, and I don't even care for it nor did I buy it. But I played the betas for each and it wasn't even close, Battleborn is fucking garbage. Just Dota in first person. I uninstalled after 1 match of that horrendous borefest. Overwatch isTF2 rather than a MOBA. There's no question which has the gameplay to back itself up here, Battleborn is found wanting.

Overwatch announces the beta to coincide with the launch of Battleborn on March seventh.
The tweet was done right after that.

Yes, they do, and likely always will.
Usually in non-gaming sectors, where their abilities are valued higher than a head janitor at an LA Hilton.

The smart ones leave ASAP, because there is no future for them in video games as they write themselves out of work and are replaced by scriptkiddies and their toy engines.
Even Valve is bleeding talent searching for greener pastures.

Your only experience is from ex-game developers shit on by their former employers

grammar nazi

an elitist who gets off on correcting others' grammar and spelling because it makes him feel superior.

grammar nazis often misidentify grammar as the primary determinant of one's intelligence and the most important element of expression.

this belief stems from the grammar nazi's insecurity, which leads him to learn the simplest thing in the whole fucking world to learn and impose it on others, earning self-gratification in the process. realizing how easy but effective it is, the nazi continues this ego masturbation until he can no longer separate the truth from the lie: grammar's not that important, no one gives a shit, and no one likes you.

grammar nazis don't realize that in actuality, grammar is too ambiguous to have a rigid standard, and that though basic grammar is necessary, most grammar rules are not, and can restrict good expression.
