Reminder that what happened to battleborn was nothing but pure karma, you should not feel bad for them.
>Gearbox literally stole money from sega to make BL1
>They stole an artist's assets for BL2
>whole anthony burch thing

>yfw you're not anthony burch
>yfw you also never got involved with battleborn

>Gearbox literally stole money from sega to make BL1
First time I hear about this, explain?
>>340312452
And this?
>>340312649
Sega was paying gearbox to make alien colonial marines.
Gearbox was taking the funds and resources of the game (alien) for borderlands.
Sega caught wind and put CM on hold
Gearbox later outsourced development to a company that was not even 100% game dev but simply debuggers and post production cleanup
And then alien CM happened

>Stealing from Sega
Sega gave Gearbox money to make Aliens: Coloniel Marines. Game was mysteriously delayed over a period of years, and Borderlands 1 came out. Gearbox then asks for more money to finish Aliens, because for some reason they need more funding. After all this funding, the game is shit because Gearbox outsourced it to someone else.
>Duke
Gearbox said they'd finish Duke Nukem Forever. They did, but they literally cut content, and made what was already an unfinished piece of shit, worse, and then released it to get the money from the "It'll never come out XD" meme.

What happened with Anthony"you better go to church" Burch?
>>340313770
His writing is heavily critizised for being extremely heavy on unfunny, outdated memes like "come at me bro!" or "cool story bro!". And then he publicly came out as a cuck.
He asked his wife to fuck another man and let him watch, she said no, after multiple denials, he divorced and now claims to be in an open marriage with someone else.
Of course this in itself is just a meme and is not enough reason to judge all gearbox products, but gearbox does have some shitty karma like op stated

How the fuck did you learn all this shit about m- I mean him.
>>340311849
>karma is a thing
>anyone still cares about sega (????)
>anyone care about this random 'artist'
Why should I care again?
I enjoyed both borderlands 1 and 2, and if I had friends to play with I'm sure I'd enjoy the next ones too.
Battleborne simply failed because their main target was console, and they litterally got it out when overwatch's open beta was up.
I get that they're not the same kind of games, that's not what the majority of people thinks, tho.
TL:DR;
If they intended on battleborne to sell, they would've made it a good game.
Or at least try to.

Don't forget.
>Use legal loopholes to pull Devolver's Duke3D off digital stores.
>File lawsuits against the guy who made the Duke source port.
>And are maybe making a new version of Duke3D with added BAZINGA memes. (this one may be untrue though.)
They also stopped Interceptors top down Duke game, but Interceptor is a shitty fucking developer too, so whatever.
STOP SAYING ITS DEAD BECAUSE IT ISNT
I CAN FIND A GAME RIGHT NOW IF I WANT TO
KILL YOURSELF

>listen to easy allies podcast
>pure hatred of battleborn beta from Huber
>Shut off the game when a hero said "U mad bro"
Lol yeah I dont need to try Battleborn
>>340315591
You missed the point of the thread. People are saying they feel bad about battleborn failing but fail to realize that gearbox is shitlord tier in game devs
>>340316856
Yeah after 5-10 minutes Qs

>I enjoyed both borderlands 1 and 2
