You can say fuck here. Nobody gives a fuck.

And to answer your question... they thought that the majority of gamers were sjws. They actually thought that majority of gamer would avoid Overwatch like a plague because it was too... "sexist" by having so many sexy girls. They thought they could complete with Overwatch because their game had butt ugly characters that didn't sexualize their women. They believed that 53% of gamers were women... feminist/sjw.

The misread the entire gaming market and actually thought sjws were the majority of gamers. Gearbox was totally fooled by years of brainwashing by gaming journalists and sjws. Now they pay for it.

http://www.vgchartz.com/gamedb/?name=battleborn

170k units for PS4
100K units for Xbone
130K units PC (steam numbers)

for the grand total of about 400k units total

http://www.pcgamesn.com/overwatch/overwatch-battleborn-sales-data

with sales and everything it is safe to assume Gearbox has had about $20 million in total revenue from Battleborn from all platforms combined including season passes

about 60 million development budge, not including marketing budget, HUGE Opportunity cost of not just doing Borderlands 3 first and instead doing a new IP, and also the cost for servers for PC and having to pay both Mircosoft and Sony for servers for their networks and also having to pay them every time they patch on console, do not be surprised the $20 million they made bleeds out really fast trying to support the game and all the other hands in the pot taking their cut like 2K

So yes, this is a economic disaster that would of killed off other smaller gaming studios

I see this comment a lot here, but I still don't get what people hate so much about Battleborn's characters. I've never actually played the game, but from what I've seen it's going for this sort of cartoonish style with its design and the characters are just in keeping with that. With that in mind, I don't see how for examplelack of proportions in certain characters is such a terrible thing.
Could someone explain to me what exactly makes these characters so shit?

Blizzard not only spent like 4 years on Titan, they then scrapped the whole project and instead made everyone do Overwatch for like 3 more years

one of the most important things to have in a game with a lot of characters is they need to look like they have unity
there needs to be a theme among characters that let you know they're from the same universe
Street Fighter - exaggerated stereotypes of fighters from around the world
Mortal Kombat - characters who look like they're from a low budget Martial Arts or Horror movie
Darkstalkers - cartoonish spooky fighters
the list goes on, of course there are exceptions but just enough for extra spice, it doesn't overwhelm the theme, people give 3rd Strike the shit because how much it breaks away from the theme in the character design area

Battleborn however has no unity in character design, characters look like they were pretty much made on a dart board of ideas

Overwatch is the same too, but they did at least try to make them look like they belong in the same universe, and at least they know people like attractive women

Don't forget, Overwatch also drew similar inspiration from TF2 in that characters have distinct and recognizable silhouettes. Anyone with even a passing familiarity with the game can recognize one of the game's characters from the outline alone. Whereas Battleborn's silhouettes are an indistinct mess whose only defining feature is how undefined they are.

characters still look like they are made off a dart board of ideas
some teams might look like they belong together, but they half ass it
Team Rogue, at first you might think they look like they're suppose to be spooky right? Orange is a halloween color
Orendi - looks kinda witch with the hat, multiple arms to make her look more monster like, that makes sense
Pendles - a snake like monster holding a scythe, monster like enough
Shayne and Aurox - a guy with a big monster that kinda looks like its supose to be a dark shadow behind him, spooky i guess
Whiskey Foxtrot - looks like a big monster holding guns, kinda cool and monster like, yeah that counts, but then he's purple, and then there's that name... but maybe he's just the exception! its okay to have that he still sorta counts
Reyna - not much i see here that makes her look like she should be grouped with these character, she's got... 1 eye? okay.... and she's a strong black woman, i suppose some people think that's scary...
and then we have Toby, nothing about him looks like she belongs with the others, holy fuck why is he even on the same team

Even though I personally like both Battleborn and Overwatch. I knew Overwatch would beat Battleborn, if you went around asking gamers if they knew what Borderlands is, most probably would reply saying "Never played it." Or "What's that?" I like Battleborn better, honestly I liked the idea of a shooter based MOBA. I realized I did waste my money after about a week or so if release. Battleborn lacked content, and it went up against Overwatch, superior advertising and player base. If they'd waited, or released Borderlands 3, they would've been fine. In a better position is probably a better choice of words.

Overwatch looks like they were made off already used and tire troops, a dart board of ideas that don't have any unity with each other Overwatch plays it safe as fuck, its super focus grouped
we have
the Cyborg Ninja
Clint Eastwood
Talking Gorilla
Spunky Tom Boy
the list goes on

but at least they meet half way through to try to unify these characters together by giving them all power armor, and then trying to go with the theme of world warriors, a theme that's tried

Battleborn didn't even try to unify their characters, at least not well

Look at Rival Schools
the name alone already tells you what the theme of the game is, you can tell the cast all belongs together because it has a theme

Overwatch really has no theme in its character design, its been focus grouped as fuck, and uses already tested themes people already like, it has no vision, its just a cash grab

Megaton is a completely different thing from what I'm referring to. It's also missing.

When Gearbox got the rights to Duke, contractually they only had the rights to Forever and everyone onward, and 3D Realms (what was left of them anyway) owned everything prior.

Through some bullshit and loopholes, Gearbox got the rights to EVERYTHING Duke, and they are going to run it into the ground even harder than Forever.

Nothing wrong with diversity when it makes sense within the universe and looks decent. The problem is that SJWs think diversity means making a bunch of hideously ugly characters and forcing some kind of mental illness on them with a non-white skin color.

The new Overwatch hero is a good example on doing diversity right. An Egyptian woman who speaks fluent arabic, doesn't look ugly but also accurate to her age, and has a cohesive design that conveys a sniper. Much better than what you'll get in Battleborn.

to be clear i am not defending gearbox in any way. but it seems obvious they were planning to release in a month with no competition and beat blizzard to the trend first. but Blizzard did their beta and subsequent full release ahead of what GB thought and they got trampled. that's all there is to it. no sjw conspiracy for fucks sake.

just one business fucking over another business. in this case though Gearbox completely deserved it, not just for being talentless wastes of skin, but also for embezzling money from Sega to fund their one successful IP, and ruining everything else they touch.

One of the very few games that doesn't follow an exponential decay curve for popularity though.
It peaked at 192 players (slightly above the release peak of 170 something) 6 months after its release, because almost a thousand people recieved it simultaneously as a Kickstarter reward.

At all other times it just hovers at an average of roughly 5 players except for a few random spikes.
