Why did they go at Overwatch at launch then?

Regardless of what the game actually is, I totally blame gearbox for misadvertising it just to compete with overwatch
Because it's BADASS?
Dunno man, the dude who runs the company is strange to say the least.
The concept sounds actually interesting if it weren't for the
GODAWFUL ART STYLE AND IN-YOUR-FACE UI
>>379620059
This is true, the UI is abrasive and the view models on some of the guns are too big to see anything

They didn't jab at it that much despite what a lot of /v/ wants you to think.
They still failed to properly differentiate it from Overwatch in the marketing though, which is why nobody bought it.

and the a+ voice acting

No thx, bruh.

The answer is Randy Pitchford is a colossal idiot.
I wish Battleborn would be published by someone with actual business sense so it would at least stand a fighting chance.
Those morons released F2P and advertised it NOWHERE. Not even on Steam. What the fucking fuck is wrong with them? Fucking Awesomenauts announced their F2P transition long ahead of it, these morons won't even tell people they've already gone F2P.

>ultimates
>different 'heroes'
This
>>379621348
No, theres no base destroying or minions
>>379619679
That's what the entirety of /v/ was saying
Randy ruined it for himself by going after OW for whatever reason
>>379621348
As much as Quake Champions is a moba
>>379621348
Its kinda of a weird middle point of a team area shooter like TF2 but with MOBA game play elements (cooldown and ultimates)
Its understandable why people argue about it

I'm seen more news and discussion about it "not" going F2P and confused about it's phrasing and intent then actual news and hype about it.
Everyone seems weirded out by how they're absolutely refusing to call it F2P when it effectively is.
Gearbox is such a stupid fucking company to pull this in this fashion. And doing so so suddenly with no build up. Fucking negative hype vortex they created.
>>379622693
Seems Randy "ITS NEVER GOING F2P" Pitchford's pride has gotten in the way

it's almost like no one bothered to actually check out the rest of the quote. Stay Frosty says that when.dominating Phoebe in a match.

They really should have had a few weeks of hyping up F2P multiplayer, with making the single player campaign as a $10 add-on, and sell the remaning individual heroes at $1-3 a pop, or buy it all for $30, then have additional cosmetic shit for $1-5 a pop.
Basically the format a ton of other games already have tested and proven works on the market and consumers understand.
This "free trial" sounds like its just a demo be it limited time, or just a free steam game weekend thing, or whatever.
