  • Lot of hype and praise at E3 with huge marketing budget and esport. Despite such a low player population, president of Take-Two stated that Evolve has achieved an “incredibly successful" launch with 2.5 million copies sold worldwide in 2015. Evolve went free-to-play on PC a year later.

    Edit: A lot of people are saying that this didn’t happen. It did happen, but it’s disappointing to hear that people don’t believe there’s kind people out there who care more about others even more than their job. I suppose, more than that, there are a lot of liars on the internet that make up stories. Unfortunately, that almost prevents me from sharing mine.

      Personally I disagree, microtransactions are still a thing but companies are a little more conscious about it, specially after what happened to evolve and SW battlefront, sure you buy cosmetic things but many of this are f2p games like fortnite and apex legends so the price is not an addition to a fully priced 60$ game, also many of this games allow you to grind for the premium resources, so despite it's still a thing, my opinion is that it hasn't gotten necesarily worse

    People have use the phrase “dead/dying game” incorrectly all the time. But in this case here, Evolve is ACTUALLY a “dead game”, because there IS actual proof that the player count went down (steam charts), and the game has shut down its servers after nobody is playing this game anymore.

    • @igorz4582

    • @doomslayer8641
      @doomslayer8641 Před 2 lety +2

      @@igorz4582 Well it’s true that “dead game” means that a player count for a game is very low (Dying Light: Bad Blood, Lawbreakers, Battleborne, Battlefield 2042, and The Culling 2), I’ve seen a lot of people use this phrase incorrectly and spread lies about a game being “dead” or “dying”.
      For example, people are saying that Fortnite is a “dying/dead game” just because they look at the Google Trends charts (even though the Google Trends chart is just a bullshit source to prove that a game is “dead/dying” because Google Trends has absolutely nothing to do with player counts at all and it only has to do with how many times people search that word up on Google), but in reality Fortnite is not a dead game, the game has millions of people still playing it to this day, it was the most played game/most downloaded game on PlayStation on November and December 2021, and when chapter 3 season 1 came out, Fortnite on Twitter said that there launch for chapter 3 season 1 had “the most players they have ever seen at a launch of a season.”

      The amusing thing is that value is a bit misleading.
      That number came from adding EVERY single thing available in the store up.
      Problem is that doubled and tripled up on many things. Like hunter 1, 2, 3 and 4 might each have a "blue gun skin". But then a package would offer all 4 of those blue skins in a combined package. Or there were packages that had *multiple* of those packages, "Get all the colors at once for even more discount!".
      So on one hand ya, there was a lot of things- On the other, not as much as people thought initially because of misleading statements.

And they are making most of their money off of the same kind of people who abuse slot machines and such, those who pay the small amount necessary for a case key over and over again. Before they know it, they've spent thousands of dollars hoping to get a skin that you can then sell to someone else BUT the money goes on your Steam wallet AND Steam claims part of the transaction as a "fee". Fucking greedy assholes, charging a fee when the money just goes back into their pockets no matter what...

I did 100% on Final Fantasy X back in the day, and that was 120 hours, with insanely challenging end-game side-content. Yet 3:11 here's a guy with 600+ hours on this POS saying it's fun but there's nothing to do. Like they sound bitter for even liking the game once everyone buries it, and they join in because they ate the crap sandwich for months.

Maybe people just have to realize that anyone has a right to say “this game is shit”? He could’ve just run across the map for 600 hours because he had no money for any other game, or good pc for other games, or because he was mentally ill or any other personal reason etc, but in the end he sees game as shit. I’ve played some games so long that I either grew up out of them or they turned to shit by devs so I actually saw them as shit and downvoted them, some I played for so long just because of other people who liked it, and still I wouldn’t recommend the game

      CakeIS based Well Battleborn already fucking died. Pat form Best Friends also commented that servers for FFXIV thinned out due to Overwatch's release. There's not much incentive for games like Lawbreakers to have stable fanbases if they have to compete with Overwatch.
      Now what I did say wrong is that games like CS:GO, Battlefield and COD that have loyal fanbases that are established will maintain their current level of players, but any new IPs will have a steep hill to have. Blizzard killed the MMORPG, Hearthstone is the biggest card game on the market and they sold 7 million copies super quickly. Plus other multiplayer games have to compete wth stuff like LOL and Dota for their player's free time.

Overwatch wont kill new games in the slightest, Battleborn was just the perfect storm of disaster.

      Well, if they decide to actually make Evolve into a successful game. They should relist it on steam and consoles and put development into the game. Like fix balance issues, make it fun, add content, and so on.... That is only if they capitalize on this opportunity while people are showing them that the game can be great. But only if they get off their ASSES. Along with not shoving microtransaction shit down our throats.

    I feel like what we really need is like every critic should have a very specific page that portrays his or hers experience as a gamer. What games they play, at what difficulty, for how long, what are their stats at specific fields, like if you see that this person plays his second total FPS or only plays multiplayer or liked THAT campaign that you hated, you will know whether their opinion matters at all. TO YOU.
    I had a favourite team of critics because close to like 90% of their arguments, their positions, their grades, felt extremely close to mine. I've even met them offline and yes, they were just like me, same experience, similar taste in games. These are people I can trust not because of "brand" but because we share tastes.
    I can't trust some random person, even if they review a game for a big mag. I know nothing about them!
    I remember reading an article on some game, and I replayed it multiple times, from Easy to Veteran difficulties. And this game, I really don't remember what it was, had like this sort of security wheels on Very Easy mode. It was like a Story mode cheat, you know, built in to protect these unexperienced players. It felt really seamless, too, if I was a new player, I would love it. And I'm reading this article - and this loud, condescending reviewer is bashing the game for this mechanism, never acknowledging the difficulties. And I was like "Wait, lol, he thinks it's a core mechanic. He played the game on lowest difficulty and bashes something about the game's strength!"

      A great point there, and I feel that it can also be a useful thing to know the differences between your own opinions and that of someone else, too, since if they dislike something that you like, or vice versa, then you can essentially look at their opinion to get a rough estimate of what you would think of the game yourself.

      The thing is, I think Brink had everything it needed to be a great game but they screwed up the balance of it. They created a rewarding parcour system but no maps where you can use it to full effect, so why would you even use the weakest bodytype? Why were there even bodytypes instead of all nimble, quick classes?The story tried the same thing as Titanfall where they put a story into your multiplayer games. It was a game which was weighed down by faulty map design and balance.
