Battleborn actually requires skill so that explains why you aren't playing it

Honestly I do want to play BB, It seems like I'd enjoy it's progression system.

But first reason I'm not doing that, it's because it costs too much and I don't like a game with that much DLC, and second the population is so low (on PC) that getting into match might take too long and progression is going to be ass.

It's worth over 100 USD but it's on sale for a quarter of that price.

It's not. There are frequent game sessions with the devs themselves and they are always posting weekly telling us what they're doing. It will never go F2P, quote me on this.

All of the visual FX in Battleborn were hand-drawn by one guy and contribute to the horrible look and feel of the game

That shit is out of context, that character says that when he kills a female character.

To him females on battlefield means more shit to kill.

There was no reason to say that though.

You don't see the characters in TF2 and overwatch spouting memes, and praising feminism when they kill a female character.

Well actually come to think of it TF2 doesn't have any female characters..

Battleborn will never be as popular as Overwatch.
Know why?

Because Overwatch is nothing more than a TF2 ripoff with
Pixar-esque waifu/husbando characters. Characters meant
to appeal to attention-whoring cosplayers and <15 year
olds on summer vacation. As well as slimmed down, simplified
game mechanics similar to TF2 but without much of the nuance.

Battleborn never stood a chance. But then, Overwatch will
probably lose 60% of its playerbase when summer ends.
After all, when school starts, the teeny-boppers will be too busy
with homework to be able to spend hours online ogling Tracer's ass.

I heard matches are like 90 minutes long

Sorry I'm not a loser, can't spend that much time I've got rl
>>
>>343460398
They literally can't go over 30 mins. There's a timer preventing the match from going over that long.
>>
>>343460386
And when that happens, 90% of the player base will be found in cybercafes in Korea.

>>
>>343460386
who cares about the playerbase when they already sold 10 millions copys?

It's literally the most succesful game of the year, whatever shit you can throw at them is meaningless, blizzard already won. They didn't need to make some legendary game, all they have to do is more casual crap with constant updates, and this time they already got their money back like tenfold, everything that comes afterwards is just a bonus.

I got bored with the game, but they already have my money, I really don't understand what else could a companny want out of their playerbase to call it "a success".

And they'd still have thousands more players than Battleborn

If Overwatch lost 60% of its playerbase right now, it'd still have millions of players.

> what is worldwide servers
> what is post-launch content development
> what is years-long development cycles
> what is 100+ dev team members with yearly salaries
> what is world-wide marketing campaigns

This shit all costs money. And god knows how much Acti-Bliz spent on marketing.
Even at 10 mil copies there's no guarantee that they've made their money back.

And what does the playerbase count matter? They built the game to be a constant
money maker. That's why it has micro-trans in it. It's meant to keep people coming
back for years to come. If the playerbase dissolves within a few months, then it's NOT
the money maker they wanted it to be. This means they'll end up LOSING money in the long run.

This is how game development works. It's not as simple as "make game, release, get money, done",
especially for massive online multiplayer games.

'Kay, and? What's your point?

Both games likely have more players per month than Quake3/Quake Live does, yet that game's had an active community for over a decade.

Comparing the Battleborn to Overwatch is like comparing League of Legends to Starcraft 2. They both have similar perspectives and control schemes, but that's where the comparisons end.

Besides, I don't care which is has more players. I play games that I enjoy. Personally, I don't play either, but I still recognize trends in online gaming.

literally the same shit was said for LoL and look where it is.

You're talking as if they would take down the server next year because they lost half their playerbase, which will undoubtedly happen, and will undoubtedly not harm blizzard in any significant way. Look at their fucking garbage moba, it's still getting updates very often, they just released some fucking fat ass hotie and it's selling like hotcakes.

They don't have fucking 100 devs with $60/hour working on 2 new characters a new map and some fucking summer bikinis.
