What went wrong?

Blizzard salvaged something from the remains of the Titan project. What else could they have done?

overshadowed by overwatch and has faded into obscurity ever since

I went to a store called five and below the other day, where everything is 5 bucks or less
The only video game they had was Battleborn, probably 30 copies for both PS4 and xbone.

this game is good too, that's what makes it sooo sad

>they put too much money into it
>absolutely atrocious art style, one of the ugliest games I have ever seen
>too similar to overwatch, released at a similar time
>should have just never been made in the first place

>>377559950
shit characters, released around the same time as overwatch, fucking eyesore to play

It's Five Below, not Five and Below.
I've found other games there before, like the Wii Bakugan game and LEGO Chima and Angry Birds Star Wars for the 3DS.

Battleborne could have had the most fun, engaging and competitive gameplay around, but at the end of the day it still would have failed, because the art style, which is the first thing people will notice, is Mars Needs Moms tier.

>bland character design
>what if we took memerlands 2 and took it beyond memes
>we need some checkboxes for the SJW crowd
>mobas are cool
>fuck we need to display more information on screen
>did I forget memerlands 2 had cool memes? LOL XDD THIS IS MEMERLANDS BEYOND! MORE MEMES!!
>but with less borderlands conent and more moba
>doesnt stand out from the current market
>completely ignored overwatch's competition
There's a lot of reasons why it failed. That said, the game wouldn't have been bad if it was a f2p shitty wannabe moba shooter.

>Make an FPS MOBA
>All the big multiplayer FPS games are at most $40 on PC
>All the big MOBA games are free to play
>Charge $60 + season pass for it, ensuring that you never, ever build a core audience
Also the game was mediocre at best in every regard. But they tried to combine two shitty genres and failed in every regard.

It should have been F2P from the getgo

>>377559950
Too badass for a wider audience.

>>377559950
They sell this at 5 below

>>377559950
Gearbox tried for once to be creative and make something of their own

They should stick to stealing IPs

>>377560668
Is the Wii bakugan game any good? and wouldn't mind playing an anime card game for a weeknight.
I remember liking the show as a kid so it has the nostalgia factor going

Who would win?

Gearbox is a fucking dogshit developer with zero integrity that lucked out with Borderlands. Even those games have tons of flaws, and BL1 only gained traction because in spite of its issues the idea of blending RPG mechanics with a shooter was a relatively novel.

They need to finish withering up and dying already.

>Let me just send this tweet to our competitors, it's not like I'll advertise them and cost our company millions......

This doesn't really count since Battleborn costs money.

You forgot the monk girl who isn't tranquil because LOL QUIRKY AND MEMES is the only way to be fun in Gearbox's eyes.

>>377562915
literally zero clue who you're talking about, mate.

do you have a name or an image?

>>377560819
Who at Disney looked at this and went "yeaup, these abominations will sell". Hope they got canned.

So what you're saying is that, that one /v/ post is much more successful than Battleborn?

>>377559950

Orendi is cute, plus she has four arms which probably gives her some kind of sexual prowess

The VR equivalent, Starblood Arena is $24 already at Best Buy
