Amazing Eternals

So this piece of shit just bit the dust. How many more failed hero shooters do we need before the industry gets the fucking hint?

A reminder that Freedom Force-esque game about classic movie monsters instead of superheroes was canned in favor of this shit.

Why are these games everywhere now? What's the catch?

The "hero shooter" meme is propped up by Blizzard and their gook fanbase.
Check their demographics and you'll see its 70%+ chinese or koreans.

These games are dogshit, and retards just buy overwatch because its blizzard, and blizzard makes a fuck ton of money selling random loot boxes to retards with way to much money. The rest of these companies just wanted a piece of the pie but they don't have the blizzard name so nobody bought their dogshit.

Awesome, now they'll probably shelve most of the assets into Warframe with ridiculous microtransactions and grind

What? I thought this was a card game like hearthstone.

I've seen normalfags used assfaggots as conversation starters bragging about their wins

It's essentially a Truman Show gambit. Not a single one of these games are as popular as they actually appear and they spend untold amounts of funny money making dipshits with more money than sense believe otherwise. You could easily argue that no game was every a good investment or even an investment at all but they seriously took it to a whole new level: this is a race to see who can blow the most cash on a glorified bottle rocket of a franchise and who can dupe as many people as possible that the game will still be around in a month.

I guarantee you over half the porn you see of Overwatch is done by Blizzard staff working with an alias.

Publishers smelling money.

The success of a "hero shooter" is based on characters, art and cosmetics, not actual gameplay. People play Overwatch because it's easy, accessible, popular, the art is supremely palatable and inoffensive and - most importantly - because there's a metric ton of sex appeal that's acceptable to the hyper-progressive gaming community. Blizzard would never in a million years admit it, but the waifubait is the lion's share of the franchise's success and that was EXACTLY what they were aiming for.

user the industry will never stop making skinner boxes until the governments of this world make the poaching of human wales illegal.

I've never even heard of this game.
Now I know why.

Fantastic job with the marketing of that game considering this is the first time I have ever heard of it.

you mean legal right

Never heard of it.

Oh, it's DE. Nothing of value lost, then. Their Chinese chicken butcher overlords will just direct them to jump on the next fad like a Canadian Hi-Rez.

They're arcade shooters with quirky characters and microtransactions.

Even worse than Lawbreakers? Because this shit wasn't even on my radar. Holy lel.

I'm sure it had a lower budget than lawbreakers at least.

I have literally never heard of this game.

Zuz. Here's hoping their Warframe money well dries up soon as well.

same

I think it was a smart move to shelve it early. DE got lucky other people got to try their luck at the hero shooter genre and fail miserably before they sank more money into it.

Same as WOW
It's not the first time, and it's not the last.

There was one with odd cartoony aesthetics, with some swordguy with an owlmask and some giant gryphon, forgot the name.
Is it still alive?

That alone makes it interesting to me.

Gigantic is still around afaik. It was backed by Microsoft so it won't die quite as easily.

Last time i checked Gigantic's player numbers weren't all that good either, it was around 500 daily peak.

What will they try next?

i am hearing rumors theres atleast 3 Super Hero based mmos (rpg?) coming late next year/ early 2019.
I don't really know what to expect

I want more super hero based games since I am into capeshit but MMOs are always bad.

Right now everyone is copying that old ass arma mod about KOTH, one of the cloenes is currently the most popular game on steam thanks to chinks, also you can add themepark MMOs, Hearthstone clones and other shit that stopped being produced

Player Unknown Battlegrounds with microtransactions

Aren't those just DayZ clones?

They could've done everything with it and they chose to waste it on an Overwatch clone.

Why live?

Pic related.

imagine PUB, but more weeb, with driveable mechs instead of cars and sci-fi citadels, a perfect cash-in for fancy cosmetics hungry weebs and waifu makers
