Kinda sad, but not surprising. I don't think saying "ITS THE NEXT BATTLEBORN" makes much sense, this has a pretty weak marketing push and isn't gripping enough to make people even look at it, but otherwise seems totally like a fine game.
Far cry from Battleborn which got lots of people to give it a shot and they mostly bounced off since it was a bad game flat out.
didnt he originally state this was going to be an old school, hardcore arena shooter in the vein of unreal tournament? Thats not at all what this is
Both of these games are great.
Why don't you people buy great games?
I dont remember him saying that. At all. However, id certainly argue that LB is sort of a modernized arena, hero shooter in ways. Nobody wanted or needed another UT or Quake with new versions both in development. (this coming from someone who spent thousands of hours in UT/Quake as a kid)
CliffyB effect
Is having CliffyB involved seen as a positive thing these days?
I'll say it again, but even when Lawbreakers had a free beta during one weekend, it only peaked at 7k players.I wonder how much of this has to do with the Overwatch event starting the same day. Would more people somewhat lukewarm for OW or taking a break suddenly be all over it again on update day take away from potential numbers of players?
The conspiracy theorist in me says the Summer Games event start this week rather than last week or even next week with this in mind... I could even lump Doomfist's release in with it.
I didn't know it had been released. I don't think that helps an online only game.you kinda have to hit the motherload to have a successful low budget game without much marketing.

Anyone can correct me if they think I'm wrong but I think he is seen as irrelevant to the modern game landscape aka yesterday's news.

Didn't David Jaffe come out with a game too? Was that a bust also?

Class system with abilities/ultimates are horrible for fps games. Leave that crap to casuals and their moba type games. Blizzard got away with it because of blind fanboyism.
Battleborn was a 2K published $60 game, Lawbreakers is a $30 indie game.
That being said Lawbreakers is basically the Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars of Arena shooters.

Honestly the game looks very hard. Just to play. It looks cool, but you can tell that it takes a ton of skill to play. Overwatch and CSGO don't look difficult to play. None of the really popular multiplayer shooters do. They all look like they require good aim, but not an ungodly amount of dexterity.
Its a shame, but mixing gravity in spots over the level was off putting. Not like that is the biggest issue but its what turned me off.
Who even remembers Quantum Break at this point?I know this composition is hardly new, but the branding seemed derivative.

LawBreakers is being backed by Nexon. You ain't indie.
LawBreakers is published by Nexon, which isn't exactly a slouch of a company.
Wow. Big money is behind LB
Biggest reason is imo is that people scoff at paying $30 for a game with f2p mechanics in it.
It's got 173 ratings on the NA PSN store.Maybe it's killing it on ps4. I doubt it but Steam isn't everything.
He might be referring to Battleborn?I'd say those people are misinformed. The stash drops in LB are virtually identical to the loot boxes in Overwatch but people are fine paying $60 for that one.
