Activision cited destiny under performing as a reason for why they moved on for the franchise so...probably not really.
At least loading when you die kinda makes sense. Anthem seems to load all the time and often for no reason. Like loading just to tell you that the connection was lost.
Report the (supposed) drive by. Claven has been very active in this thread - and doing so has stayed much more on topic, instead of constantly shifting the thread to an ever-repeating meta-conversation on whose opinion is valid and whose isn't.
Ok but without numbers all we have is activision saying it was underperforming. Yes publisher expectations are getting higher but for a game with that budget and that amount of resources I'm not sure activision wasnt in their right to expect high numbers (and that's not even accounting for the fact that the destiny brand has probably lowered those expectations considerably after d1 and the launch of d2).
Maybe you're getting dogpiled because your posts are trash. Telling people to ignore others and instead listen to you is the worst tier of shitposting I've seen. Painting a poster who has been extremely active in the thread with posts more content rich than the game we're discussing as a drive by shitposter is just asinine. You're getting the feedback you deserve.
It's not hard to see the distinction of how this is shitty and why a game they pumped 500 million into which has never scored more than an 85 metacritic, most releases much lower than that, was likely not returning enough to be a worthwhile investment.
I painted that one post as a drive by that was unhelpful, as it was.
Hostility, please. I'm being downright civil. I haven't told anyone to ignore you.
You can't walk that back. The responses you're getting from multiple people are exactly what I'd expect if I implied everyone that dislikes the game is just there to bag on it because they don't want people to enjoy a game.
You told me to piss off and that my comments were trash.
I've been seeing these posted directed at you ever since the thread first started. At a certain point you have to reflect on whether everyone other than yourself saying your posts are bad is an indicator of something.
Not to mention the gungame/collect-a-thon of destiny is incredible. different archetypes of each weapon class have weighty feels and tangible differences, and min/maxing the PvE/PvP endgame is a ton of fun. Most of my 700+ hours in D1 and 300+ D2 hours were just building that perfect loadout, and feeling tangible difference in the raid or in trials/cruci. I'm pretty burnt out on Destiny and loot shooters in general for now but it sounds like anthem isn't replicating that super addicting weapon grind.
Yeah, you are right...
Wasn't that because their future outlook is set to underperform?
Depends, but I'd say after a month or two could be expected. Maybe even less than a month if it's really bad.
;)
Yeah I think it's entirely plausible that it could drop price after a couple of weeks.
