Would you consider trying Battleborn if it was free?
Only if they paid me to play it.
>>376637058
fuck off randy
not worth the time taken to download
>>376637058
a couple friends of mine insist once it goes F2P we'll all try it because of how shitty it looks. So yeah probably.
>>376637272
Im not Randy. He makes some great tweets.
Not even worth the space on my hard drive.
Paladins exists
>>376637058
I personally really dislake the art style of the game
that's why i never got pass the review videos
>>376637058
Co-op pve cbt was okay. Would play again because there's never enough co-op and even Payday 2 and EDF get boring 1000 hours in.

I'm curious, why does everyone hate the characters and artstyle for the game? I think it looks pretty generic, and says "lol look we're so awesome bro!"
>>376637058
>A waste of time and a waste of money
>Would you still like it if was just a waste of time?
No
they had there chance to go ftp, but then Paladins ended that
Battleborn will lives now, only in memories
A f2p battleborn would not be badass enoughis randyposting even a thing?
>>376637058
But anon, I thought the malicious rumor of it going f2p was dismissed by the CEO, and they're instead going to be developing a special demo-mode to help convince people on the fence to buy it.
>>376637058
the only character that i like is a melee only
>melee in an fps game
no ty
>>376637058
How did they waste all their money on this game? Wasn't BL2 a huge success?
>>376638872
See if you can last the whole 20 minutes, and then tell me if you could enjoy it for hours, then imagine it turning into visuals, and awkward gameplay.

Someone post Randy's weird as fuck tweet describing Battleborn.
That would probably make it worse
Such sad.
>>376637798
is this real?

>Wears glasses with "ASS" and "BAD" written on them
What a guy

Well, they ended up getting billed as a direct competitor to Overwatch, despite their games having very little in common with each other. Blizzard's marketing campaign was far beyond anything they could possibly do, so already that meant people were leaning away from it. Then, Overwatch had a free weekend during Battleborn's launch, which hurt. The launch itself included a lot of technical issues that made the game unplayable even on high-end computers, but they insisted on keeping the PC and console patch schedules the same, so those issues didn't get fixed for a full month. Then they tried to have a massive sale, but that just pissed off the people who'd paid full price. Then they tried microtransactions for cosmetics, but that just looked like a cash grab and pissed off the season pass holders, who still hadn't gotten anything. And the actual season pass content took so long for them to start releasing that by the time they added new story operations and stuff, no one cared anymore.
Also, some people didn't like the dialogue and character designs.
>>376640061
nah, the original picture had a bible instead of quran
>>376637058
I'd play it just for Benedict. But I'm not touching it otherwise.
>>376641359
edgy
>>376639568
I think Evolve (also published by Take-Two) going free-to-pay but only receiving a small boost in popularity for a very short time stopped Battleborn using the same model.
Take-Two realized that any more money invested in "converting" the game to f2p and promoting that fact would be tantamount to throwing their money into a furnace.
>tfw you bought Battleborn on release day.
>>376637058
Absolutely. Then I'm sure I'll uninstall it after one game.
>>376637058
No, I like Overwatch just fine.
>>376642418
May I ask why?
>>376642418
...Did you buy a season pass?
>>376642418
Same
No, i already did during the beta, it was garbage
>>376642557
I really enjoyed the Boarderlands games.
>>376642573
No
>>376642418
I fell for their shilling for B2. Never again.
>>376640842
Jesus, what a mess.
>>376637058
Nope.
>>376637798
if this was really a quran then i'd be impressed tbqh
>>376637058
No. I am playing virtual console games and am far more engaged with all of them than I would Battleborn. It looks messy, gameplay looks subpar and the visuals just wreck my head.
I'll stick to my Gameboy tier games.
>>376638872
I'm an artfag andgame design studentmyself and on just about every level character-design wise this thing is a mess. I remember someone posting that the team was split up into groups that were allowed to design their own hero and whther or not this is true it at least looks like it and thats easily the dumbest thing you can do eaither way, because all of the characters look like sole protagonists from their own game thrown into one title ,none of them share any common theme or factor that ties them together, its a mess of colors and direction. Secondly, the proportions are fucked on half the cast, even allowing for cartoony styles. Third and perhaps most damning of all, the animation just fucking sucks ass. Someone will probably post that webm of the sniper rifle zoom in and almost everyone that watches it(myself included) literally feels physical pain in their eyeballs when watching it. Say what you want about TF2 or how its progressed but from a pure game design standpoint its technically flawless, the characters share a common color scheme and style but are easily recognizable, to the point that they don't even have to have names and teams hovering over everyone's head, which I think is a sign of good design. Also Battleborns' UI sucks fucking ass.
>>376637058
i actually enjoyed the beta so probably
Orendi came this close to either being a normal girl, or a fish girl
>>376643096
That was most people's reaction, yeah.
>Gearbox
Never
>>376637058
Already tried it, was a pain to look at and wasn't fun.
>>376642418
At least you arent Randy Pitchford.
I bought it, dont regret it.
I also havent touched it.
>>376643958
Its amazing how every single one of those is better than the actual character.
>>376637058
Yes, only to use hacks.
>>376637058
No. I refuse to give Randy the satisfaction of knowing that one more person downloaded his game.
>>376639889
Why do people shit on this but then praise OW?They look quite identical and i hate them both.
>>376640842
> some people
you mean everyone right
> dialogue and character designs
those arent the only bad thing about the game, everything about it is bad.
>>376637058
nope
not fond of TF2/Overwatch shooters, not fond of mobas
and to tie it all together, battleborn does not even seem like a well done example of those games
I'm buying Overwatch to spite Bitchford once I'm no longer a NEET
>>376643641
Please post the animation video I want to laugh
>TAUNT
>NOW
>>376644150
You gave them money.
>>376637058
YES! BECAUSE FEMINISM IS AWESOME!
>>376646167
hmmm
