Dear lord, why did Battleborn have so many terribly designed and written characters?
There are only like 3 that aren't completely hideous.
>>345333402
Damn, that bitch ugly.
2 different eyes, hair colors, arms jesus what the fuck
How much would you pay for battleborn?
>>345333402
Everything is so overdesigned. It's ugly
It always gets me when people talk about the writing for this shit game, because somehow it still manages to be an improvement over Overwatch. As in, things were actually written. They say actual lines, rather than bland, milquetoast pleasantries. Overwatch is such a toothless game that you literally have characters asking for eachothers autographs as the height of character interaction.

It's great how the game forces you to play her in the unskippable tutorial, then locks her behind a level requirement.

Do they even have an art director? Every character in this game seems ridiculously mismatched. It feels like they asked everyone in the team to design a character each one. There are like 3 characters that don't look like shit but the whole cast doesn't even have a common theme.
>there are people that actually paid full price for this garbage
>>345337871

There is nothing consistent about the design of that characters.
It's all over the fucking place, one thing clashes with another and it's just overall very ugly.
This is (and I'm actually using this term seriously) literally like an original character from deviantart, there is no aim, just throw a bunch of shit onto a blank slate and bam, """design""".

OH FUCK, I finally figured out what she is.
She's the result of pressing the "equip strongest gear" option, specifically Xenoblade Chronicles X.
>>345337824
Dude, they essentially took the characters and shitty personalities from borderlands slapped silly putty on them made copies and stretched them just enough so that people wouldn't recognize their origins then ran the ALL NEW CHARACTERS through a blender filled with horribly mismatched colors
>>345334185
I would play it if someone paid me to. They'd have to pay me a decent amount though.
>>345333402
The characters are awful down to their very names. Even on a conceptual level, they never had a chance.
>shit game by shit dev bombs
Feels good. Reminds me, how's Ghostbusters doing?
>>345337692
I wouldn't call Blizzard a bunch of geniuses but they are still pretty smart. They managed to make a game with good looking women while also appeasing the media babies. They even made a cool looking old woman while slapping a waifu skin on her.
They might fuck up a lot but they still have some good designers in there.
>>345333402
I tought it was an Overwatch hero, the same shit designs
>>345338612
This looks like every anime tacticool waifu except with a disney face. Good things westerner are finally catching up with glorious nippon

>>345339149

>>345333402
The entire game is terribly written. The "story" and dialogur is so drowned out from the constant stream of shit around you that you cant pay attention to it without running risk of getting shat on by one of the enemies shooting at you.

Smug ugly bitch.
The designs are terrible, the world artstyle is just disgusting.
Seriously, this game has arguably the worst art ever made.
Worse than fucking Dishonored, and that's an ugly ass game, at least that one has good gameplay tho, Stillborn doesn't.

That's what gets me, honestly. I don't normally pass up a game for minor character design issues but this shit makes Ren and Stimpy look modest. In game that's not really that cartoony beyond that. Like, come the fuck on, I even played Smite for about a month and they have some bad character design choices, this shit makes me not want to play the game at all.

They have no appeal whatsoever.
Appeal is in particular VERY IMPORTANT when you want to make your characters sell and age like wine. Otherwise Klonoa would be forgotten by now, Overwatch wouldn't sell to waifufags, Batman wouldn't be as popular if he didn't look so well designed, etc.
>>345341298
>Battleborn is now the new Evolve
hilarious.
>>345335959
These fucking Battleborn characters have
20 (TWENTY) MINUTES OF DIALOG
Most of the dialog is so fucking worthless and annoying. Meanwhile, the Overwatch characters seem to just have at most 6 minutes.
Who the fuck at Gearbox though that was a good idea.
>>345343903
That's just a headless Gundam
>>345344035
Exactly. The only good character design is the one that's like 99% copped from somebody with better taste.
>>345343903
It looks pretty neat, but at the same time I hate how it looks like it was designed by 343i
Seriously though, who the fuck okayed these character designs?
Who thought these were okay?
I mean Borderlands character design wasnt stellar but at least it was passable, with some good shit here and there. I thought handsome jack and that one playable psycho was pretty good.
but fuck did they just shit the bed with this cast. It looks like they just took the league of legends cast and put them in front of a fun house mirror.
They are so unappealing its painful. They didnt just fuck up one or two characters, they fucked up 25. How the fuck do you not make one appealing character out of 25?
That is the whole point of games with big rosters, you make a character for everyone. Doesnt matter who comes a long, there should be someone who looks fun to play.
I didnt particularly care for overwatch's characters, but fell in love with roadhog and junkrat, then tried out some of the others and liked them.
This game though. These characters look like they are in physical pain from their existence.

Face it, if you want a character design to be good, they have to be appealing or at least charming in some way. If you make 'em a hideous cave troll, it's a lot harder to make people sympathize with them at all.

Well of course, that's called having charm. You can take a creature that's hideous on purpose and have it be cool or even "ugly-cute", but my point is that deliberately making characters homely just for the sake of being "diverse" isn't the way to go in a medium that's largely about fantasy, i.e. idealism.

>>345347575

>>345347575
I feel you, brother. Trundle was one of my absolute favourites before Riot fucked up everything good about him. I remember they said they wanted to make him more popular but then they barely even buffed him, so they alienated the fans of the original Trundle and didn't boost his gameplay value at all.
It's a shame a character as good as Benedict had to end up in Battleborn with all the shitty characters.
I hope Gearbox manages to move him to another game, somehow.

Will Gearbox ever do something right?
>Battleborn vs Overwatch
It's a direct example of beauty in simplicity. Battleborn as a game, and it's character designs, tries to dance with too many elements at once. That's what makes the Battleborn designs feel so poorly thought out and cluttered while Overwatch feels more thoughtful and sleek despite the characters having similar amounts of 'drawn' detail. Same goes for the gameplay of both.
Overwatch takes basic concepts and evolves them. Battleborn tries to stick as many 'cool' elements as possible on everything and only achieves a cluttered mess.
The ultimate sin of any artist is not realizing when a given work has become finished.

>The ultimate sin of any artist is not realizing when a given work has become finished.
The Chinese have a saying, "Adding legs to a snake", which originates from a story where an artist in a drawing competition to draw a snake finishes ahead of his rivals, and feeling superior, adds legs to his drawing, and promptly loses like the dumbass he is
>>345349935
I like that saying. It's "less is more" without sounding vague and cryptic as fuck to someone who's never heard the phrase before.
>>345347938
That's not the point anon. We're miffed because they absolutely HAVE to show how progressive they are by shoving lesbian or gay characters in our faces.
Does their homosexuality matter in the context of the story? Why should it, we're inclusive! Does their homosexuality define them as characters? Yes of course it does, because we literally only included them for the sake of checking off a box on our quota!
>>345349935
It's sad how real it is, too. There's so many potentially hugely talented artists that exist in the world hampered only by their inability to say it's time to stop. They reach a point a work looks wonderful, but they 'feel' like they could add more. Then promptly ruin it by doing so.
>>345350065
Beauty in simplicity works, I think. Gets it's meaning across. Less is more is more like an oxymoron.

The weird thing is that just from a quick Google search, this character is way cooler looking. What happened to Gearbox? Did they fire their decent character designers and pick up a bunch of nobodies from DeviantArt?
Every character is asymmetrical, both disgusting to look at and completely unremarkable. It's quite impressive desu.
>>345350125
If you dislike homosexuality so much then why is it the focus of 99% of your porn? Why is it ok for you to post hundreds of webms of Tracer with her face buried in Widow's ass but when Gearbox creates lesbian characters that's "SJW"?
Don't you think that's a double standard? Or do you just declare which gay characters are ok and which aren't based on your personal opinion of the company that produced the game?

I never said anything about the porn. If people want to make porn that's totally up to them. Why do you keep bringing that up? Are you 16?
The reason people are upset about the gay characters in stillborn is because they have no other character traits other than being gay. If you have a character that's sole purpose is to show how progressive and inclusive you are then the character isn't actually doing anything to help you cause. Overwatch characters show no signs of wanting to bang each other because it's not necessary to delve into that. All the shipping is the products of horny adults wanting to see the characters bang. Stillborn has characters loudly declare their homosexuality and expecting you to think that makes them great characters just because

It's nothing to do with homophobia. It's that they purposely just make characters with NO character traits beyond I'M SO GAY GUYS LOOK HOW PROGRESSIVE I AM just to fill quotas and seem progressive. There are good characters in fiction who are gay. None of the Gearbox characters are good because they bring nothing else to the table besides stereotypes.
You can't just make gay stereotype characters and ultra butch lesbians and then claim it's progressive or whatever. You want a progressive character? Than make one who just happens to be gay but is otherwise a normal human being. Straight characters don't have a line every five minutes saying they're straight, or dress weird just to make that fact stand out.

I like Posh Zenyatta on the Battleborn side. I also think Orendi is cool because he/she looks like a black mage.
I want to say I like Kelvin too but I would need to see the rest of him to judge.
Everyone else from BB is retarded though.

Do they though, or that just hearsay that you're presenting as fact because somebody else on /v/ told you that? If nobody is playing the game then how do you guys know about the content so intimately?
I played the Beta and saw nothing of the sort.
>You can't just make gay stereotype characters and ultra butch lesbians and then claim it's progressive or whatever.
I'm sorry is the giant, butch pink-haired body builder woman in Overwatch not progressive for some reason?
This is what I'm talking about, you guys don't really care about the representation of gays in videogames, or "SJWs", you're applying your standards and criticisms selectively to target companies you don't like, don't pretend you have any principles whatsoever.
If Zarya was in Battleborn you'd have a field day, but because she's in a popular game from a company you like, suddenly all of the telltale traits you'd decry as "pandering to progressives" in literally any other game are perfectly acceptable.
A woman dresses in masculine clothes with short hair in Battleborn and it's an outage that they're pandering to SJWs and stereotyping gays, but a 6 foot female body builder with pink hair in Overwatch...? Tumbleweeds...

if there's any game parroting stereotypes, it'd be OW
BB's characters all look original as fuck and more concerned about being interesting than anything else
also

at least when BB fucks up (attikus) it does so by making a badly designed character and not a boring piece of shit like lucio

Battleborn already made enough money, it's only fair that more people are exposed to this wonderful game.
It's better than Overwatch in EVERY single way!
This is what Battleborn is!: FPS; hobby-grade coop campaign; genre-blended, multi-mode competitive e-sports; meta-growth, choice + epic Battleborn Heroes !!!

No shit, it's about what you do with the character that makes them interesting.
Every character in BB is ruined by terrible designs AND absolutely terrible writing.
Everything that spews out of a BB characters mouth is uninteresting gearbox speak where they spend 10 mins trying to say "capture the point" in half-Sarcasm and references.
Also, Roadhog and Junkrat are Mad max characters.
>>345354089
Yeah companies love it when their product stops being profitable 4 months after launch.
Why the unholy fuck does every character in this game have such fucking deep laugh lines on their faces? It makes them look 70 years old. Most of these characters would look better if they were removed. not good, but better.

And what are the political positions of any of the Battleborn characters? Oh that's right you didn't play it and you're just parroting the /v/ hivemind.
It's ridiculous, pink hair, the upper body of Arnold Schwarzenegger, all she's missing are the problem glasses, but it's fine, no problem, because the game was made by Blizzard and you like Blizzard thus you'll overlook any pandering or stereotypes.
Oh that game made by Gearbox has a woman with short hair though, boo, SJW, pandering, #GG, it's very important to me that fags are properly represented in videogames guys I care so much.
I wouldn't care if you just said the game was crap and you think the character designs are shit, which it is, and they are, but you try to morally justify it and virtue signal then just end up looking like a massive hypocrite.
Admit that you don't give a shit about gays being stereotyped in videogames and that you just want ammo for your Gearbox hate train.

Mushroom ninja, Benedict, Phoebe, and Ashley Burch actually look like acceptable character designs.
And as >>345351048 already mentioned, Borderlands had some nice designs too.
So how did the fuck did the other BB characters get approved? No matter how loudly tumblr bitches and gripes, waifus sell, even in the west. Overwatch is undeniable proof of that.
>>345354964
>Battleborn
>Interesting designs
Shit does not mean interesting.
See, here is the thing; vanilla isn't a bad flavour of icecream.
Single concepts can be good when they're executed well, and Overwatch does so.
Gonna be honest though, Reinhardt is my favorite character, and he trumps everything BB shits out in both Originality and design.
>>345354693
I won't agree with you there. I like Mercy / Tracer / Widowmaker / Reaper / Bastion. But that's only because their stereotypes are good stereotypes. They don't seem to do anything to flesh out their characters, which leads to most of their characters being boring, as you said, and some of them being good, but in a dry fashion.
Battleborn, on the other hand, has colorful character designs and where it fails it's because it tried too hard to be unique (PENISDICKMAN)
>>345354727
it triggers me to hell and back that every god damn thread someoen mentiones FEMINISM IS AWESOME
yes, it's badly written and other lines (ie TASTE YOUR EMPOWERMENT) or something could work better

Just because they have similar designs does not mean they are the same character. This is basic stuff anon, pressing this point any further would only make you look more retarded than you already do.
Unless you're going to tell me that any similarities between any two characters makes them the same. In which case you are actually too stupid for me to talk to anymore.

>>345355369
It's never a good idea to try to jam social commentary or politics into your videogames, Gearbox and Ubisoft are especially guilty of this, it immediately becomes dated and it's polarizing.
But the hypocrisy drives me crazy because OW is doing the exact same shit, yet everyone just slips it under the rug because it's popular. Nobody on either side really cares about games having more three-dimensional characters or better writing or more representation, they only care about flinging shit against their ideological adversaries, real or imagined.
They'll literally contradict themselves if they think they can win internet points for or against "SJWs".
>>345356010

I mean fuck you could have said space marine.
>>345356493
saying FEMINISM IS AWESOME when you kill a woman isn't sjw or anything though, if anything it's a guy making fun of misogyny
i'm not going to say gearbox is a bastion of the right but this quote is not SJW and never will be
gearbox, at least, has burch as an excuse. TFTB was way better since burch wasn't involved with it, and BL3 is going to be written by scooter's VA, who wrote BL1.
>>345356752

Like anon mentioned earlier in the thread, BB's designers don't know the meaning of "less is more." They're stuck in that amateurish period of character designing where they still think that adding more and more features and details onto a character automatically makes them a better design.
I used to draw a lot and back when I was new to it I did the same shit all the time and never understood why my characters looked so ugly until someone corrected me on my mistakes.

>>345354767
Goddamn, this is the first time I've seen this game in motion. The colors look fucking obnoxiously overloaded.
>>345354727
Except Zarya is made as a mockery to SJW's. You think fucking BLIZZARD ENTERTAINMENT is pandering to them? Both tracer and zarya are a fart in their faces. Stupid as they are they didn't even bother to actually look at zarya beyond her appearance. Which is racist as fuck, conventional and straight. This alone makes her better than ANY BB hero.
>>345338189
Iworked in the studio. You are so close you have no idea. Almost every character was someones 'baby' and they were constantly trying to outdo each other when it came to make them more and more unique. That is why there is so fucking much 'lore' in the menue of the game. Whenever someone thought of something funny of their Mary Sue, it had to be put into the game. Even shit like "Wouldn't it be funny if Montana sang along to 'oh montana' thinking the song is about him?!".
>>345361454

>>345333402
Why even armor her fingers? Why not just a cup to protect the hand?
the main problem with Overwatch is all its characters are just boring
it's too conservative
it's like SM3D Land, the game is objectively good and has few design flaws but is boring as fuck
and while you can't call SM3DL bad, I'd much prefer games like Borderlands 2, which had far more flaws but were much less boring, too
>>345371131
>>heterochromia
You can see the biowhatsits creeping up her neck like pic related.
>>345344719
I think we can agree that when you look at a character box, in this case caldarius or Shayne and aurox, and can't work out what the fuck is going on, something is terribly wrong.

I only see two oddly colored eyes trademarked by every autist on deviantart with a sonic OC.
>>345372941
I've spent far too long on /v/ for that.
I only ever say "At least I'm not Anthony Burch or any of those retards on /v/"
>>345373161
No, not really.
The only non-interesting character I can think of in TF2 is the Pyro.
it was cartoonish, much more so than Overwatch, a lot less than Battleborn
it was good. it was always good.

Old Trundles lore was fucking fine. It was amusing and karmic.
Fuck you sound retarded. League was one of the few "hero-based" games that actually bent ass backwards just to give a sensible reason for the champions to be fighting against/alongside each other.
They threw all of that away, and now it's a hodgepodge of characters from across the globe that have nothing to do with the game or even each other whatsoever. They explicitly did this so they could pick up and drop random fan fiction tier stories with whatever writers they wanted and conclude absolutely fucking nothing.
New Trundle lore:
>Hurr I'm dah biggest and dah best
>MAGICAL TRUE ICE??!!?!?! NEVER EXPECTED THEM TO USE THIS AS A PLOT DEVICE FOR THE 100TH TIME
>Now fight for ice witch, cauze trolls are violent and bad
So, how was Lissandra's attempted takeover of the Freljord? What was the result of the civil war? What happened to corrupted Anivia, and all the other champions involved? How did the other nations/champions react to the war? What exactly are the Watchers? Did Lissandra succeed and cover the world in ice? What did Brand have to say about that. Brand - who to this fucking day - still has lore which says he was imprisoned by the Institute and fights in a League that doesn't fucking exist anymore.
Oh wait, none of that shit matters or will ever be answered you stupid faggot. Do you like reading books only to stop immediately after they introduce all the characters and establish setting? Fuck off.
post some western character designs that are actually GOOD
>>345340778
Wait what?
That is an actual line in the game?
I thought Anthony Burch didn't write for Gearbox anymore
>>345344719
bladderborn has such shit angular art that each character is forgettable and trash. they don't look expressive at all
>>345381641
It's a lame joke that doesn't work without context.
Apparently Burch did write some stuff for Battleborn before leaving but it's just as likely it was written by his meme buddy.
>>345347214
Here is my 2 cents to fixing the picture would take more time than it is worth
First the 2 little robots need to go. Second that Robot running away needs its mouth closed and the right arm fixed and the right leg pulled back a little so it doesnt look like it is about to be shoot off. Third the flying robot thing is position horribly and looks like it is just hovering there needs to turned. My god the flare off the thrusters and flash of the gun need to go or really be fixed. The Owl needs to moving the other direction with the robot running away. The background really needs to be decluttered. The plant on the far right needs to go and the shadowing needs to be reworked. For fuck sake that dirt spray at the feet is pure shit and would someone please fix the left foot

why not just say arigato, san kyu sounds stupid
>>345387772
Why do characters always say that in my chinese girl cartoons instead of arigato?
>>345388125
its them speaking english with a japanese accent
Big hair!
>>345344719
The only OW character I hate from design is Torb. God even his walking animation pisses me off.
I had a dream the other night that Randy Pitchford himself led me around a BattleBorn theme park.
The best part was the middle, where they had a huge scale version of Rapture of Bioshock for some reason. It's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
>>345388340
But they just say that one word, they aren't really speaking in english
>>345352616
>anything in Battleborn
>good
also fuck off, roadhog has a fun design
Because Gearbox has been kept afloat entirely by false advertising and memes, which isn't a sustainable business model.
Sadly Randy Pitchfuck and everyone else will just weasel their way out of it with DLC or yet another fucking awful borderlands game.
>>345388817
>Because Gearbox has been kept afloat entirely by embezzling money and working with games journalism to ride muh diversity
Fixed
>>345336105
That is literally just fucking Rumble from LoL. What the fuck even.

its not exactly english its how their language translates the words thank you they are literally saying thank you but with an accent

also, he's baaaaaaack.
>>345388817
Borderlands strikes me as that game that is always hugely advertised in Gamestop and Amazon and people buy it but nobody seems to remember it or call it their favorite game.
It's like Haze or Kami except it keeps fucking showing up.
>>345389256
I'm always genuinely surprised when I see someone use 'CIS' unironically. What the fuck are you doing with your life when you reach that point?He's probably just shitposting.
>>345389254
But why say thank you and not arigato?
It's not as if I thank people by saying merci
>>345389003
>>Because Gearbox has been kept afloat entirely by embezzling money and working with games journalism to ride muh diversity
just like the odd gentleman
>>345389545
>Haze
But that game bombed horribly
>>345389682
This is what happens when you spend anywhere from four to eight years in an environment where people older than you assure you with 100% certainty that "cis" can be used in actual life without someone laughing at you.
>>345389713
because you were saying it as a japanese person would you wouldn't go around saying vhat instead of what or zat for that like a german right
>>345386190
>there are 4 players per country throughout the world
>>345389856
I would put McCree in mediocre, but otherwise completely agree.
>>345349628
>It's a direct example of beauty in simplicity. Battleborn as a game, and it's character designs, tries to dance with too many elements at once. That's what makes the Battleborn designs feel so poorly thought out and cluttered while Overwatch feels more thoughtful and sleek despite the characters having similar amounts of 'drawn' detail. Same goes for the gameplay of both.
ok
>Overwatch takes basic concepts and evolves them.
no
>>345390016
No because there is no need for me to do it and there is no need for them either, so why do it?
>>345390703
i don't know i guess the japanese just like western things or they just integrate foreign words into the language english does the same thing
>>345390539
Yeah I could put him lower for sure. Debated putting D.Va up to excellent because her mech design really is very good.
At any rate, even trying to be as objective as possible, there really isn't any competition between the two games.
>>345340773
Bargain bin born
>>345343903
Is that one of those promethians or whatever from Halo 4
Even with how much bad stuff I hear about this game, I actually still want it more than Overwatch, although I do want to play both.
There's just something about a hero-shooter with a campaign that gets me pumped up. I have bad internet connection but since battleborn can be played offline where you can actually unlock stuff and make some kind of progression like you do in multiplayer, for me that's just way more reliability and replayability.
Can you even play offline in Overwatch? Are there bot matches available?
>>345391717
No, yes
>>345389804
Maybe the Internet was a mistake.
>>345350065

If there were no SJW shit, and Gearbox hadn't wasted my life with all the twee neurotic millennial jibber jabber of Hurrdurrlands, I would have bought Battleborn on sale just to see what it's like. I'm geninuely curious about it as a unique game mishmash.
But they didn't. Gearbox is shit. They should all kill themselves.

Christ, it's really sad how accurate that is. Like, in previous games, that would have been an embellishment, but with Battleborn the writing is literally that ridiculous.
>>345341462
to be fair evolve went free to play so of course more people are playing it
>>345388761
who wears ONE FUCKING SHOE
>>345354727
except we did play the beta and had several threads about the content of the game, it is all over the internet and you tube, we don't actually need to play this thing to know how shitty it is, in fact the game had a free open beta, which i played and somewhat enjoyed the gameplay but everything else gets in the way.
jesus christ, this is sad.
have any of you faggots even played battleborn? have you watched any gameplay videos? have you looked at the cast?
i'm watching a gameplay-only match as montana right now and shit is great. his personality isn't as retarded as i assumed it would be. admittedly some lines are a bit cringey but some actually earn a chuckle from me.
i don't know what the fuck this "OH MY GOD OVERSATURATION" bullshit is. the maps look fine, and i've seen three different ones so far. gameplay looks fine. guns feel responsive.
literally at least watch a match before you start regurgitating /v/ memes, jesus christ.
>tfw estimated BB arrival date from amazon is AUGUST FUCKING THIRD
WHY THE FUCK

yes, well, maybe stop implying BB's designs are in any way inferior to OW's and i won't have to repost this every thread
