This is ugly, and I'm talking closed casket funeral ugly. I'm surprised it hasn't been lowered into the grave yet.
I would say they got the whole hero shooter thing nailed down.

To be fair, I was unimpressed with Overwatch, too. I think, in my old age, I have evolved to just enjoy third-person shooters/MOBAS better (still playing and loving Smite on both the PS4 and PC).
I'll probably give Hirez's new title a go out of loyalty to the developer (was a big Tribes fan back in the day, seemed way ahead of its time). I know absolutely nothing about it though ha. Haven't had access to my PC in over a month... Also why I haven't been by the site as much.
Overwatch took all the FPS MOBA players just like they took all the MMO players with WoW. You don't go up against giants in the industry like that. Smaller game developes should try something different and potentially capture a new market. MOBA wasn't even a term 5-6 years ago, neither was "Survival Game" it used to be "Rogue Like"

"Let's time the launch of our product to directly compete with Blizzard's new game!"
In what reality does that seem like a good idea? Did they not see the mound of MMORPG corpses that attempted the same thing outside of Blizzard's cave?
Oh, so there is enough left to put into a casket!

Kyleran: "Now there's the real trick, learning to accept and enjoy a game for what it offers rather than pass on what might be a great playing experience because it lacks a few features you prefer."

LacedOpium: "So the question that begs to be asked is, if you are not interested in the game mechanics that define the MMORPG genre, then why are you playing an MMORPG?"
Boy: Why can't I talk to Him?
Mom: We don't talk to Priests.
As if it could exist, without being payed for.
F2P means you get what you paid for. Pay nothing, get nothing.
Even telemarketers wouldn't think that.
It costs money to play. Therefore P2W.
P.S: Imagine if Blizzard would have worked on No Man's Sky but with some StarCraft elements .... OMFG!!!!
When Blizzard works on a project, people know they'll get quality and the only tarnish that they are currently working to FIX is D3. Once they get the Diablo series back to it's former glory, there won't be anything to stop Blizzard.
Honestly, I'm trying to make this thread more interesting, I mean, who cares about BattleBorn? Let's be serious here for a moment, the game can shut down tomorrow morning and 99.99% of the gaming world will ask themselves : "wth was battleborn?" , you got more people playing Bejeweled 3 than BattleBorn for crying out loud, lol.
Also the Borderlands MMO can kiss the side road. They keep releasing cheaper versions of Borderlands to help them with their stupid MMO, they're doing exactly the same stupid move Bethesda did with Skyrim by releasing TESO. Borderlands 2 was pretty much still at it's prime but NOPE, they screwed that and screwed themselves hard pretty good now. And this always brings us back to WoW, a 12 year old game that keeps getting expanded up the wazoo and still getting millions in box sales every single time. Is it so hard for devs to just work on their GOOD title and expand it instead of releasing 10 other side titles that no one wants? And that brings us back to what I wrote in the 1st paragraph of this post : "People trust Blizzard and Blizzard always win".
I still wish HiRez spent the money and manpower improving SMITE (at least getting better servers for the game).
The have cash tournies because HiRez is paying for them out of pocket, and also pays to fly in players, which I believe is unheard of for e-sports. HiRez is cool like that, but going toe to toe with Blizzard like this is just plain bad news.
As for Battleborn, the whole thing just seemed like a mess, right down to how you can't tell wtf is happening on your screen most of the time as the game vomits colors at you.
