You can also get everything in Overwatch without spending any money, where that is not the case in Battleborn, so eat shit OP.

1. When your game is almost dead, work on fixing that first instead of adding a cash shop
2. Those items can ONLY be purchased with coins. In Overwatch, if you want another box you can just level up. Gearbox is really screwing over people who bought the game and season pass.

Because I don't buy the loot boxes and I have fun playing a game that isn't dead and chock full of memes. Like, let that sink in. We live in an age where Nu-Blizzard's game in a respective genre somehow isn't overflowing with memes and popculture shit.

As someone who has absolutely no interest in Overwatch or Battleborn, it's REALLY obvious why Overwatch's system is better. What you get may be random, but you can eventually get everything in the game without paying a single cent.

>LETS you buy
You act like the ability to spend extra money for things that are purely visual is a privilege. If Battleborn also provided a way to earn skins/taunts without paying money, it would be superior to the Overwatch system, but it doesn't.

That is the case, all skins and taunts are in faction specific loot packs that are really cheap (compaired to other things you can spend blue currency on). As for grear its a pain in the ass to farm legendaries but its doable.

It doesn't take long to get a loot box playing, and experience required per level plateaus at level 22, so it won't even take longer per level.

>>341240140

you can buy whatever skin you want with in-game currency in Overwatch. What the fuck are you talking about?

Battleborn you have to use real life cash to get your faggy skins.
>>
>>341245429

Once you hit level 22, it's 22,000 XP to level up and get another loot box. That takes 10 games at most unless you join a game right before defeat/victory or you literally hide in spawn all game. So that's about an hour to level up and get a loot box with what you want, credits, or duplicates and thus more credits so you can buy what you want. It's a better system than Battleborn's

Overwatch gives you everyone from the start.

Battleborn has you pay and have to unlock most of the cast yourself, in a MP focused MOBA game.
>>
>>341240140
I didnt buy either but the 10-20 min wait times are the main reason
>>
>>341240140

After 35-40 hours in overwatch you have enough gold to buy any legendary skin (or 4 of the rares) in the collection. Also by that time you will have gotten at least 3-4 of the legendary skins. The game is first person so it doesn't matter that much you hardly get to see them and most are kinda meh.

Also if you spend money to get shit you take one fun aspect of leveling up out of the game. You can level up like once an hour or so and that is constant so you are always getting chances at 'free' stuff (I mean you paid for the base game already).

Why not just play SP?
To unlock Ghalt you have to either be level 40 or get silver medals on all Advance missions.
>>
>>341247923
Because just about all the MOBA (more or less in the genre) style games generally are either free with rotation, or buy it once and have everyone so people can jump right into MP with the character of their choice. Meanwhile Battleborn has you grinding for characters even after you paid 40 bucks for it along with the microtransactions for skins and such.

It;s part of the reason why it failed while Overwatch succeeded.

Sure. While we're at it we will call WildStar WoW 2.0, or Brink Mirror's Edge 2.0.

Battleborn may be dead now but the hype didn't carry past the first week. It was dead as soon as people started playing it. Overwatch, despite your view on the game, is still going strong.
