Exoprimal | Capcom's Inevitable Failure

[@Rainbowhawk1993]

Meanwhile Helldivers 2 succeeded because of these factors: -$40 -Reasonable Microtransactions -PvE focus -Focus on gameplay instead of expensive cutscenes for forgettable story. -Loadouts instead of classes

[@trophytroll]

I agree with almost all of this, Helldivers 2 was something that checked all of the right boxes, especially for a game this year. Exoprimal just didn't land. The one thing I do partially disagree with is the loadout vs class thing, Exoprimal’s classes make sense and the modules still offer (just) enough variety to help gameplay longevity. Classes in hero shooter esque games are a little overdone, but I think Exoprimal gets the balancing act of loadouts vs classes with the modules you can slot into each suit. Also nice seeing you in the comments again, hope you enjoyed the video!

What killed this game for me was the forced PVP at the end of matches, your team could be doing great on the PVE segment only to lose in the PVP round, it just didn't feel good they should've just focused exclusively on the PVE side. I also think the goofy dinosaurs vs mechs was just kinda too out there for most people as far as settings go.

My favorite exoprimal moment was when I absolutely did not spend $60 on it

[@trophytroll]

Hey, I *only* spent $20... Its also on gamepass if I failed to mention.

[@thelastnotary]

love Exoprimal my girl skywave.. But it needs to be either free 2 play or 19 bucks.

[@trophytroll]

Yeah, gamepass is pretty much the only way the game made it past launch which is a huge shame.

[@mrozzdude]

Wanna know why it failed? We wanted Dino Crisis, it looked like Dino Crisis, it wasn't Dino Crisis

[@trophytroll]

Yeah my friends and I wanted a game like Orion Prelude, but this wasn't it.
