From Forbes: "When Gearbox announced that Borderlands 3 would launch as an Epic Games store exclusive, the backlash was deafening, or at least it seemed like it was deafening. The combination of the already-established anti-Epic community and the particularities of the Borderlands fanbase led to a major outcry with everything we have to expect from these controversies: claims of anti-consumer behavior, conspiracy theories, review bombing and threats of boycotts. Now that the game is out, however, we can get some idea of what that actually means when it comes to sales. And, as it would turn out, not much."
Sony has launched the PSN Store "PlayStation Indies" sale this May 15, and this one is full of smaller titles at a discounted rate.
Coming to Game Pass: Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, Immortals of Aveum, Lords of the Fallen, and more!
Just recently finished playing Immortals of Aveum on PSplus extra, can definitely recommend it to those who like fps magic wielding type games, it's really good.
I own & played Immortals Of Aveum & Lords Of The Fallen already. The only game on that list I'm going to try is Hellblade 2.
Chants Of Sennaar is a favorite of mine, if you like to figure things out as you go, literally decipher what the hell is going on, play it it's amazing
With Arkane Austin no more and Lyon living for who knows how long, the superb Dishonored is in serious danger; Microsoft cannot be trusted.
I love the Dishonored series so much and really want Dishonored 3. Microsoft better not screw this up.
I mean, I think the fans will probably kill Arkane Lyon by cooking up reasons to hate whatever they do next without playing it. I've never seen a game so artificially disliked as Deathloop.
Lol, why don't we just say, we are worried about all studios owned by MS now. They will keep closing studios until they have none left ...🙄
I think it's becoming clear based on matt bootys comments there's no future for any IP that can't sell above 10 million within the launch window. But is also a small game that gives them prestige
/S it's beyond a joke right now
So either PC gamers who "boycotted" don't matter as they're a small percentage.
Or folded faster than superman on laundry day..
Whilst Epic are playing dirty, it has to be done if they're to stand any chance against Steam. They're their only direct competitors.
The player retention rate might not agree with the sales in the long term however.
There are just some people who don't care or just don't want to do the research themselves to see how bad Epic really is.
I wanted the PC version, I didnt want to support Epic so I bought the PS4 version. I have a 2080 Ti and I know it would have run buttery smooth but I dont like what the Epic store is doing.
I didn't buy it.
