F2P game that couldn’t be played on toasters. Also tripp was a total bitch to play against if no one on your team could deal with her. Pretty much played pakko exclusively to shit on those faggots.

>windows 10 only
apparently you can't ask for that from f2p players yet.

>overwatch moba
they just dont make landfills deep enough for these games.

I was interested, but the words "Windows 10 Only" alone made me lose all interest, even though they dropped that some time in testing. Makes me think everyone else dropped out as well, and never looked back. It also came out during the era of hero shoot bangs and couldn't compete financially.

various reasons, they made some bad choices but they were extremely unlucky as well
>extremely talented devs and artists
>goodlike artstyle
>perfectionists take forever to decide on the main mode and iterate forever wasting money and time
>tight on money they made a terrible deal with microsoft
>win10 stalls development even more, game is years behind the estimated release date
>meanwhile overwatch comes out copying half of their ideas and killing every chance of making a dent in the market
>microsoft dumps them, still no money
>all employee laid off but they decide to work anyway cause they love their project
>another terrible deal with perfect world, ceo secretly sells the company and all the assets
>development still fucking behind and barely progressed in years, they still lack key figures, code is a mess and new employees don't know how to fix shit, basic features still missing
>game is so fucking unoptimized 6gb minimum are required and this keeps all the potential 3rd world f2p shitters out of the game. Also win10 exclusivity in a period where win10 was shunned by everyone
>go all in trying to launch the game on steam, this splits the community even more, game is still incomplete
>rare case where devs are too generous and you can get everything almost for fucking free, don't monetize enough, people are playing but the game is not making money
>go on like this for months, pathetic attempts at marketing the game without results
>perfect world fires everybody and shuts down the servers
>the end
the sad thing besides all the problem the game was fucking amazing, controlling your character was a pleasure with a godlike combat system and unique artstyle. There isn't anything even remotely similar to it on the market and all the die hard fans can do nowadays is delude themselves of a resurrection that will never come and cry endlessly on the subreddit

The little I played I enjoyed, but there was no way this game had any future

I could never get it to run

The only real problem was Win10 only. Nobody wants that shit and at the time, it was a gigantic turnoff.
Dylan Perez
I miss this game.
Christian Walker
Literally everything. LITERALLY everything that could go wrong in a development cycle that went wrong did go wrong.
It's tragic because the game was good, and now it will never be played again.
IM STILL FUCKING MAD THAT I NEVER GOT TO PLAY THE ROLAND RE-KIT!!!

Jonathan Scott
Pretty much everything.

Win10 deal. If devs had enough money to finish the game in timely manner it could rival OW in popularity.

Probably not. The Windows 10 thing didn't help it a lot, but there were many other issues with teh game, like the poor optimization, slow roll of the updates, keeping the two pubstomping characters unchecked for months on end (which was a really bad idea because there was no competitive scene), lower settings effectively letting you "wallhack" and so on and so on.
Dominic Howard
Souless but for real this time.
Pretty much like that SSB clone that I can't even remember the name of, that one that lost to Slap City.

Terminal pet-classing syndrome and deliberately designing some characters to be impossible for inexperienced players to deal with

Fuck dude, the devs created gold and decided to join the devil two times. Fuck me.
Christian Davis
Get the fuck out of here. Go shitpost another thread.

>decided to join the devil two times
Good fucking luck making a multiplayer only game in the current market without being supported by a Devil of the industry.
In fact, the only exception I can think of is Rocket league (before selling themselves to Epic, of course), but they had a pretty fucking unique game.
Jose Torres
>announce game
>say it's windows 10 store exclusive
this right here killed all buzz the game had
AND IT'S A DAMN SHAME BECAUSE I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME GOD I MISS IT
Wyatt Sullivan
Bad exclusive deal. Microsoft may have given them a ton of money, but nobody used the Windows store, much less to buy stuff limited to Win10 OS users.
Ethan Allen
The worst marketing in existence. As evidenced by the fact that 80% of this thread still believes it was Windows 10 exclusive because of the initial announcement when no released version of the game at any point in time ended up being Windows 10 exclusive.
