The fuck is hobby-grade? Please Randy explain. You keep saying it, but I don't think it means anything.

Cooking, masturbaiting to chinese cartoon doujins, and going to the gym are all better uses of my time.

>>381030307

Because literally no one is playing it, I wouldn't want to play by myself.

>>381030307
I spent my videogame money on dirt4

So, looks like it has 69 metacritic. How has this game improved since launch to be worth my time?

Hobby grade sounds cheap, like that crappy wood models used to be made of.

multiplayer games require more than one person playing

Holy shit, we get it. Battleborn tanked.

Why are we still talking about it?

>>381030307

A few reasons:
Gearbox made it
I bought Dark Rose Valkyrie
I got Killing Floor 2 off of PS+

>>381032276
gearbox funneled SEGA's funds away from colonial marines into their internal projects and outsourced the project to a smaller studio.

>>381030307
The only crazy thing about this game is that anyone at any point thought it was a good idea that would make money. You know that old article about Timesplitters 4? How publishers were hesitant to touch the project because they couldn't work out how to market it?

Battleborn is a perfect example of what they were talking about, this game is a complete mess that is all over the place. Gearbox had no idea what to do with it, 2k had no idea what to do with it, which is probably why they turned to picking a fight with Overwatch shortly before the games release. They legitimately couldn't think of another marketing angle to sell this disaster.

>>381030307
Because I already want to kill myself

>>381032523
That too. Slipped my mind.

>>381032405
do you really want to invest your time in a game that's already dead and buried, f2p helped a little but at the end of the day MP is what's going to carry the game long term and there aren't that many people to play with.

>>381032541
>which is probably why they turned to picking a fight with Overwatch shortly before the games release

and it bit them in the ass, hard.

Overwatch moved it's open beta week to the week of Battleborn's release

>>381032523
"I was contacted by Gearbox prior to the re-design of the game – in 2008. They asked me if I would be interested to direct/design some cut-scenes for them. We exchanged a few emails but the project didn’t materialize in the end. I didn’t think much of it at the time – until I saw the final game in 2009. To be absolutely clear – I have never created or designed anything for Gearbox or Borderlands. Gearbox saw my work and decided to reproduce it – make it their own – without my help or my consent. The hardest part for me when this happened was understanding why they wouldn't ask me directly. We were already talking about doing some work together – it made no sense."

Gearbox are real life villains.

looks like its FTP...so what happened to all the suckers that paid for this game, did they get a refund?

>>381032816
>Gearbox are real life villains.
Everything Gearbox has done, does not equate even close to EA or Tencent. The former destroys endless studios, buys entire rights to genres and blacklist people from even working fast food like Konami. The latter funds the Chinese Communist Party that beats yoga practitioners to death in the streets.

Is there anything this company can do right?

>>381033116
I would imagine when they made the switch to ftp, they gave preminum currency to the legacy players. Maybe unlocked the different characters? Honestly who can say? It would require someone to have bought battleborn

>>381030602

How did Randy fuck up so badly after Borderlands 2? Pre-Sequel is pretty phoned in, but passable. But literally everything after was like a spiral down in nightmares like holy shit why? They could have just made a third Borderlands and gave it their everything and it would have printed fucking money indefinitely.

I thought I read an article saying that Gearbox was about to get axed because of how much they lost on Blunderborn and that remake they shit out, Bulletstorm I think it was? Unless BL3 is well under development they may not have the chance to fall back on it.

>>381034740
I just hope they don't fuck the third game up. Also add back mashers and put in atlas guns as relics or pearl.

The funniest part is that even going F2P pissed off Battleborn players, not the game going F2P but because they were given the title of "founders" and how it felt like a F2P game in a 60 dollar pricetag.

>>381040594
