It's called an artstyle, something you Blizzard fanboys wouldn't know anything about. Just look at all those generic models in Overwatch. They look like they were ripped straight out of a Disney movie.
>>
>>342074516
Most of those points are because it did so poorly.

You can bet your ass devs would have no idea who to listen to, or would listen to people who say things like "Nerf Mei" and want changes to help their shitty ass be better at the game.

Additionally, people are helpful because they aren't getting asked the same stupid fucking questions every day by people who don't give enough of a shit to play the game for 10 minutes and figure it out on their own.

Everything else you posted is subjective, although I agree.

I'm honestly glad OW took all the shitters away from this game. BB will be completely dead soon, and I'm going to continue having an awesome fucking time playing it until then. Well worth the money I put into it.

Battleborn and Overwatch are NOTHING alike. Battleborn is an awesome MOBA-like FPS with unique gamemodes, tons of awesome characters, and has a well written singleplayer. Meanwhile Overwatch is just another class-based FPS with generic game modes and cookie-cutter characters.

One overlooked problem is the shitty gameplay. Everything feels like they're bullet sponges. The big dude with the chaingun takes 5-10 seconds to kill anything with consistent fire, so the guy with the big gun that should shred through everything feels, and sounds like a peashooter.

SMITE is a 3rd person MOBA and teamfights in there last roughly 2-10 seconds. Get ambushed with a glass cannon character and you get deleted instantly. The game feels way more fastpaced than Battleborn and for a FPS-Moba hybrid to feel more sluggish than 3rd person Moba, theres some serious gameplay design problems in the game itself.

I was saying here for weeks that we were about to see something unprecedented: They'd probably hired 10 artists, and were going to have to make skins etc as fast as possible. To save this game, they'd have to make it free, and add a valve type shop with drop system. People who bought the game would get a huge amount of shop gold, like $100 worth.

Convert the game to fully f2p, with nothing paywalled, and let the system do its work. Slowly, over time, you will recover the budget of the game at least. 1000 players will grow to 10,000 and stay at least there.

I was sure this was going to happen. I was sure we were going to see, for the first time, a developer realize that the situation had gone rotten immediately, and change course.

They responded instead by adding cash shop only items that you cannot unlock without buying with real money. And that's all. It defies explanation. Tens of millions of dollars straight down the commode with this game.

The thing is, the game is LITERALLY made for f2p. From the shitty credits/platinum system, to having the characters locked behind bullshit requirements.

Easiest thing they can do, remove the shit "single player" which is basically a bunch of waves thrown at you, throw in a new map and a deathmatch mode and hope for warframe numbers.

The game is poorly made in numerous ways. The HUD is a mess, the game is often a complete clusterfuck and the unlock system kills the game completely, having to grind linearly for heroes is bullshit, if they're going to copy MOBAs and try and make a competitive multiplayer game they really should have made all the content available from the start.

Wildstar has the exact fucking same trajectory. Like, to the letter. AAA box price of sixty bucks for an MMO with a sub. Numbers dwindle due to difficulty and seeming errors possible due to getting rushed out the door at last minute.
They attempt 10 day passes, free weekends, box price drops, and after a year or so, they finally announced free to play, slowly switched to that, and then about 8 months after that, they do a steam release, and it's maybe going to survive. That's why I think 2K should fucking put some faith in their game and their devs, allow them to make it free to play to allow all users to play it and ascertain the difficulty and time required to learn the game. Once they get invested, they learn to love the lore, charcaters, etc.
I guarantee if they don't, we'll have a slow, 10-day pass filled, refer-a-friend bonus, extreme sale filled transition to free to play or cancellation. Servers cost money, and they need people playing to attract more players, so they can filter who will start pumping money into the game.
