Thanks to jerks like you, Battleborn had to cut its price. Instead of $75 for the Digital Deluxe Edition which comes with the season pass for $75, it's now $40.

Why did this happen you ask? Because people like those on 4Chan kept spreading false information about Battleborn and fabricated a competition against Overwatch. You people cry out for new IP's instead of rehashes and sequels yet when Gearbox delivered what YOU asked for, you crapped all over it. But it wasn't enough for you people to laugh about it here, you had to spread lies and slander all across the internet. Still that wasn't enough, you just had to carry the banner for Overwatch and market it everywhere non-stop for the last few weeks overshadowing Battleborn and drowning it out in a never ending wave of lewd pictures. Seems you people are real easy to please - throw in some Pixar like women in scantily clad clothes and you instantly fall in love. Pathetic.

Hundreds of people at Gearbox spent two years working on Battleborn. They missed out on anniversaries, dates, watching their kids' play, etc so they could make a game you'd enjoy. And what did you do? You stabbed them in the back for a game with a damn purple Frenchwoman. This is why people don't take gamers seriously. Judge games based on their stories and gameplay and design; don't judge them with your genitals.

Gearbox is a shitty developer, they make shitty games, and I hope they go out of business and never make another game again.

Also, OW is just better. I played both in open beta, and Battleborn is a cluttered, unfunny piece of shit. OW is sleek, fast and fun.

The fact that you don't talk about the merits of either game in comparison to one another, and instead focus on blatantly complaining about the characters tells me you know next to nothing about either game or the reason why Battleborn is a flaming shithouse.

You get a 2/10. Apply yourself next time around.

Also, Gearbox won't get any sympathy around the internet. They flubbed the Homeworld remake and are now dryfucking its corpse for pennies, and everyone is still sore from Aliens.

That's a cherrypicked image that's been modded to give false information. The only things on that screen that stay there are the minimap, the health/shield bars, the ability bar, and the score screen at the top. The green bar at the top also only shows up when there's an objective that needs defending.

Everything else only shows up for a few seconds. And the "objectives" at the side is fucking falseflagging at it's finest since only the top two are "real"

Basically it's a shitpost image. Plus there's options to reduce the size of the HUD and increase the FoV. It's still bad, but it's nothing like the image. The worst part is how the gun takes up a third of the fucking screen.

You know there's only like, two characters in the game that have that added clutter on the screen right? And one of those characters have it being ult specific.

Question about the price cuts: is it retailers cutting the prices themselves or is it Gearbox?
>>
>A price drop so soon will save us!

You learn in business that a price drop so soon is a bad fucking idea. A price drop after such a short time will only decrease sales because it's giving potential customers a bad impression (such as the game is failing or doing badly and in desperate need of sales).

A more effective strategy would have been to slap $10 on to the price. Literally.

You cut the price of something that fast when it is going to fail, not because people complain.

Their numbers are way too small so they are going to cut their losses and profit from whatever they can, thats how business works.

Every game that has failed on launch has had a huge price drop within a month, they are just starting early which proves how big of a flop it is.

It's obvious that Battleborn hasn't been marketed enough and if you'd like to help Battleborn ensure its stay, then here are a couple things that you can do to help battleborn get noticed and therefore get more players!
The main way to spread things is through your social media such as twitter, tumblr, facebook, and even picture screenshots on instagram (Although it seems less effective)

1. One thing I did, and got almost 2k notes on tumblr, was just post the prologue video! I received comments drawing interest and even convinced some people to buy it!

2. Another thing to do is to post and write about your favorite characters with some pictures or gifs and what you like about them, their play style, and how useful they are with certain unique aspects of this game.
People love characters with personality so show them battleborn is chock full of them! show off your favorite character and gush over them!

3. Theres also talking about how chock full of lore and story it is, so along with campaign and awesome boss battle talk, you might want to add in
the link to the 3 chaptered pre-game "animated" comic or show off easter eggs to show the games humor! (since most people miss it) Or other things of this sort like direct funny quotes!

I worked in selling and distribution for an electronics manufacturing company. We had our products sold at Target, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, and most major retailers. We had an agreement to buy back our unsold products from retailers after 6 months. I don't know how it is with video games, but I'd assume they have similar arrangements since the retailer doesn't want to take all the risk. Otherwise, Gearbox sells to the retailers at a deep discount so the retailer has a buffer in case sales aren't strong.
