Battleborn actually had a lot of potential but it was ruined by bad art direction and Twitter-tier political nonsense.

[@Winasaurus]

@@pearz420 Not bad art direction and twitter politics. It failed because it was an average game in an oversaturated market. A hero shooter after overwatch, with MOBA elements after League, combining the worst of them both, that being the issue of League games being too long and too serious to be a fun game to jump on for a little bit, and the issue of overwatch being that so many characters means many aren't balanced. Add in that it advertised a campaign, but it was super short levels and always-online, and it's death by a thousand cuts. If I wanted to play a fun hero shooter, I'd play overwatch. If I wanted to play a MOBA, I'd play League. They're clashing genres, so they're not going to work well together. We learnt this with SMNC, I don't know why they ignored the signs and made a game like that anyway.

If they want to keep their design they should have just make different class as different loadout and those load out have different silhouette. Alas, the nail in the coffin is really the over-saturated market. The competitive crowd prefers CS, the casual fun prefers CoD, the big map guys prefers BF or PUBG, the more team guys prefers Siege or Overwatch. Hell, even the niche is filled with Titanfall and Destiny. If he wanted to have a place in the market. He should have waited for CoD's fall then replacing them as the fast pace quick match casual fun guy.

So many companies will only see their fanbase as numbers on a screen and dollars in the bank because it's the only thing they can afford to see them as, he's right, it is a business and he doesn't have to pander to your feelings or views on the matter. The only thing I begrudge this man is making people believe he is the problem when he's actually made people feel comfortable with their first impressions. The only thing that makes this man different is his extreme extroversion and outward PR model, he is no different, and if you abhor this game and this company only because of this behavior, you show to him and other companies that the flowery bullshit that they spew to make people feel safe works, and to deviate from that means you will suffer.

Leading with PC first *does* allow them to port onto consoles more easily if they do a lot of the legwork and establish a solid PC build first. 3. eSports was overhyped (and we're now currently living through its bubble bursting), and felt like it was crammed into every game.

I swear. I dont have a problem with swearing. But for some reason hearing a CEO swear while promoting their game makes me less likely to buy it..

[@blackmendosa]

It's because its unprofessional, and thus makes me think its going to be an unprofessional product.

[@Berenadre]

It sounds unprofessional, feels like your friend from school telling you about this new awesome game he likes cause is better than the other, and not like someone trying to sell it to you

[@Mekose]

I don't mind it being unprofessional, the problem is that it's almost ALWAYS "trying to be cool" when it's not. Look how edgy they are oooh, it always comes off as tone deaf.

[@ramsey_ajr1702]

@@Mekose Same man, I actually would like if more CEOs would lose the facade and just say what they wanna say, cuss here and there. But some of these guys arent trying to be "real", they're trying to connect to younger people or something. Exactly like this guy, it was just annoying.

[@yenae6627]

Perfectly Fine basically a very hard FPS

[@peteragurkis3590]

It refers to the fact Dark souls is unique in it's difficulty curve. Most games spoon feed you and hold your hand and it's lame. Dark souls gives you a challenge Dark souls isn't hard per se but its hard to learn. Once you get it down it's not so hard.

[@AxisChurchDevotee]

Dark Souls isn't the first hard game, it's not even the hardest game, so how does that work?

After Concord died I reevaluated this game. At least the antigravity was an interesting idea. Concord has nothing.
