    Like the Borderlands movie I’m not really sure who this game is for with the price tag they are asking for it with the f2p options available.

        I don’t know why they keep insisting on live service with an upfront cost. The only way these games are successful is by having a fuckton of teenagers with no money to fill the lobbies and make it feel lively and worthwhile. The minute you add an initial cost, there’s just not enough of a player base to support a game with microtransactions.

        I’m not a business genius, but they don’t have to learn from me. There is the very clear precedent of Kill the justice league that they’re choosing to ignore!

          Kill the Justice League is playable solo and debuted at a peak concurrent user count that was higher than Concord’s by two orders of magnitude.
