Why did Splitgate 2 fail?

>>714337804 (OP)
i liked the first one, but since they abandoned that one, why should i invest my time on this one?

Not promising on the game he was delivering? He was literally stroking off on Halo and then he shows the gameplay and it looks nothing like it.

There's just too many games to play and only one of me.

>out for months
>marketing push at not e3
>0 new maps
Its a fun game, but half the maps being gay bullshit the other 2 being recycled from Splitgate 1 is fucking gay

>>714337804 (OP)
It's always looked cool to me but it's a modern shooter so I assume it's completely unbalanced, filled with microtransactions, and probably buggy as shit. Is this even on every platform with crossplay?

Arena shooters are a dead genre.

>drops splitgate 1 for no reason
Dropped and DOA sequel I didnt even try the demo. Fuck you

>>714337804 (OP)
Wait, it came out? I didn’t even realise

>>714337804 (OP)
I didn't have fun with it. Can't quite explain why.
I wn

>>714337804 (OP)
Personally I was already pretty burnt out on the first one
then the sequel comes out and you still can't see through other players portals and it's got the sliding nonsense from titanfall 2

>>714337804 (OP)
The artstyle is really unappealing, then the lead developer did something very divisive and then also cucked out after.

more like splitegape

>>714337804 (OP)
Never really understood the appeal of either of these games, sure the portal mechanic is neat but it feels like once you've played with it for like 20 minutes you basically understand everything that can be done with it and are now playing a generic shooter

Entire gameshow thing is cringe as fuck desu. Only game that made it appealing is Finals because every map visually looks unique and it has a strong art direction.

>fuck up splitgate 1's launch so no players join
>only support it for a year since no one is playing it
>decide to relaunch the game two years later as if that will somehow draw in new players
fucked from the start. i don't support them because they dmca'd efforts to make community servers for the first game.

developers keep doing this weird thing where they act like absolute retards and shit out terrible looking games nobody wants to play

Because the skill ceiling is too high and the age of sweats is over. The majority just want to play casual online games.

I’m mostly ashamed that I didn’t realize I was playing with bots in splitgate 1

If anyone asks why another arena shooter failed I am biting a fucking skull.

>>714337804 (OP)
zero appeal to the male gaze. every promotional image for this sequel is a generic space military outfit but with tranny colors?

>it's got the sliding nonsense from titanfall 2
that's an amazing movement mechanic

looks kinda sluggish from videos

If I never had to hear about player counts ever again it would be fantastic. I don't care. You shouldn't care. I wish Steam didn't even let you see it so I didn't have to hear the faggiest zoomers hyper-focus on it as if they were trading on the player count stock market or something.

Kek
It's like they want it to fail

>>714337804 (OP)
Because it's garbage just like the first one was. I bet you retards didn't even realize you were playing with and against poorly disguised bots in over half your matches.
