You did the same celebrating Concord death but now that Asmongold told you to support SKG you pretend to care about online games.

This is bait but I'll answer it anyway. The reason why Anthem died wasn't because of live service it's because it sucked ass.

>>715943129 (OP)
It was a shit game but now it represents thousands of man hours that will go to waste instead of ever contributing to society in some way because no one has access to it.

>>715945065
fun fact - the only reason it has iron man jetpack fun is because an executive said "this is boring, make the jetpack the main focus"
imagine how bad the game would have been without that, it was already dogshit

>>715943129 (OP)
Anthem was shit, but I will fight for people's right to play their shitty games for as long as they like.

>>715943129 (OP)
you just know some corporate nigger made this thinking it would be earth shattering. nobody is saying companies shouldnt stop updating shitty games but that they should still be playable no matter how shitty

>>715943129 (OP)
>4
We're talking about games worth our time

>>715945182
or imagine if was an actual rpg/ co op looter shooter (non LS)/ just an action game
you can tell it could've been a good game given more time and different goals

>>715943129 (OP)
>that helped kill anthem
I did that?

>>715943129 (OP)
>Me watching the people who wanted to play Anthem call SKG shit because it died

>>715943129 (OP)
people are complaining about how companies are taking away access to games that people payed for
theyre also laughing at the fact that they thought anyone would pay anything to have access to this generic slop
theyre taking the game away from like 4 people that only bought it to make a review

>>715943129 (OP)
>helped kill Anthem
But I did nothing!

>>715943129 (OP)
If you would please consult the Venn diagram. You should be happy that they're also defending your shitty games, instead you're upset.

Anthem was last time Anita Sarkeesian did counseling on a game, no wonder it was shit.

>>715943129 (OP)
Spoiler: I don't actually want to save GaaS and live service games like Anthem. I want to make the predatory business models as unsustainable as possible and force publishers to go back to making actual video games instead of feasting on the weak-willed, or at the very least to expose them for what they are.

The elephant in the room is that a lot of people are already skeptical of any live service game to begin with.

So most of the time, it's not just some sudden rug-pull no one expected but instead games that never reached their potential anyway dying a slow death until the few people who did live it then lose their game they paid for.

So it really doesn't benefit either camp.
If you don't like live service games, you miss out on what would otherwise be a perfectly good game.
If you don't care, you end up enjoying a game that eventually disappears for you.

Just because I make fun of a game and make fun of it not making money, doesn't mean I want people who did pay for it have their purchase invalidated. I hope they find some use for what they purchased, I didn't.

>>715943129 (OP)
Assmongoloïd?

>gamers killed bad game
No, Im pretty sure the devs and publisher did that

>>715946125
Nobody gives a shit about GaaS, but I would like some basic accountability. It costs next to nothing to release the server binaries and instructions on how to use them, and ensures the game will be playable for eternity, the only reason you wouldn't do it is because you're a scumbag and you don't "have" to.

The reality is that any ruling wouldn't do anything to their bottom line, they'd still be pumping out failed products, but they'd at least have to host a download for every abortion.

>>715945065
you didn't like the duplicate items with a different color highlight for muh rarity upgrades?

Damn you gutsman!

>the gamers that helped kill Antham
Bioware and EA alone are to blame for that, don't pretend it's our fault that the game released with next to no content, broken balancing and no clear vision for a future plan

>>715946796
>The reality is that any ruling wouldn't do anything to their bottom line, they'd still be pumping out failed products, but they'd at least have to host a download for every abortion.
I completely agree that SKG won't do what industry fearmongers claim it will, but I'll still take even a tiny step in the right direction.

>>715945065
While it does suck noodles, it's dying (i.e. being rendered completely unplayable even for those who bought it) because Bioware/EA chose to murder it. It would be one thing if it was still playable via offline modes and/or user-hosted servers, but that's not what's happening here.
Now, future generations will be unable to truly understand how shitty it was. All lessons that could be learned from it will be lost to time, along with any hope of some crazy autist finding a way to code custom patches that make the game actually fun somehow.

>>715943129 (OP)
this is a corpo shill thread
how did gamers help kill the anthem? elaborate

>>715943129 (OP)
Not many of the modern companies who made perishable games are bankrupted yet so we have to nitpick examples. It's not like the argument needs these examples but without them people would just say the problem doesn't exist.

>>715945631
>theyre taking the game away from like 4 people that only bought it to make a review

Yeah I'm sure shitty car race for incels like The Crew had lots of players

the faith people have in mods is amazing

>>715943129 (OP)
concord refunded everyone and was basically a failure before it launched

>>715943129 (OP)
Anthem made horrible mistakes:
Anthem was left with a skeleton crew almost immediately after launch. It released before the game was finished and subjected players to a horribly barren experience, causing popularity to plummet almost instantly
They also put it in some stupid EA game pass thing, so literally nobody bought the actual game.
Then you had things like the following
>no fun "legendary" drops, no reason to keep playing after campaign
>no proper endgame content at launch
Even for a lootershooter, Anthem was FAR below something like Destiny or warframe, plus the enemy scaling was retarded, higher difficulty experience was dying in 1 seconds if you peeked outside of cover (AND ANTHEM WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A COVERSHOOTER)

Here's some more things it did wrong:
>campaign was short, and the story had no proper conclusion
>EA was one of the earliest DEI & woke pushers
>Environments were basically only the jungle and caves
>insane cash shop for a paid title

The few things Anthem got right:
>You can really feel the weight difference in the animations, sounds and design of each class, and the flying was cool
>Some abilities were fancy

You literally cannot blame "gamers" for the failure of Anthem
Even with the best financial support it could have gotten, Bioware wouldn't have changed the downright insane design choices, lack of coordination and, most importantly, being EA's property.

>bad games deserve to live if some autist with shit taste wants it to live
yes

>>715943129 (OP)
>idiots watching people shit on the game for sucking ass yet defend its right to exist regardless still somehow not understanding the point of SKG
It's fine, we got the signatures and I'm happy that you'll benefit too, regardless of how dumb you are.

No, I want Concord to flop. As in no one bought and play them.
If the game's server shut down but it is still playable offline? I'd be surprised but won't care since it already failed anyway. Also retards who do shit because a YouTuber tell them to should be euthanized

Something is genuinely wrong in the minds of redditors

because they're so not racist

>>715943129 (OP)
Yeah, just because I thought it was trash doesn't mean that someone else should lose a whole game. Those shit eaters who bought anthem/concord should be allowed to host their own games.
You anti-SKGfags have the most absolute dogshit arguments.

>>715949928
people think Africans still live in mud huts, so someone building a computer in Africa blows their mind

>>715949928
It's racism. The idea of an African living in a house with walls is amazing to the citizens of reddit, instead of being an incredibly dull story about a kid with a rich father.

For me, it'll always be Joshua Nigbuu inventing a new computer in some local news puff piece for the BBC, though.

>>715949928

>>715943129 (OP)
Niggers and SKG are the same. Don't support either.
Instead privatize.

There's always a chance. Unless the publisher willfully murders the game, anyway.

>>715951245
right, just like there was a chance it would come out good at first. delusional.

>>715943129 (OP)
Why are you so retarded? What will happen to games with Denuvo when Denuvo shut down? What about publishers who kill games on purpose to force you to buy the remaster v2?

>>715949928
Racists wouldn't get it...

Fuck, how come no one has refuted OP?

>>715952018
Nothing he said is objectionable, I don't give a fuck about online games, but pretend to do so in order to promote skg.

>>715943129 (OP)
Retards like op is the reason it's actually called "stop destroying videogames"

>>715943129 (OP)
it's simple: if a shitty game gets removed you only get to laugh at it once but if it exists forever we can revisit it anc laugh at it all over again. Concord should have been this generations Superman 64 and they took that from us.

>>715952018
Already happened here >>715951307

>OP got btfo so hard he killed himself

fuck! I missed Spyro

i don't have to want to play a game to feel that the people who bought it should get to keep it.

>>715952740
>still no argument from OP after he got btfo

>>715951307
OP on suicide watch right now.

>>715943129 (OP)
Even though it's a rushed shitty game, it deserves to be preserved. As far as I remember you could play through it alone if you wish so it makes little sense why they're shuttering it completely.

>>715951307
Well OP, not gonna answer???

>>715943129 (OP)
Braindead argument. People were celebrating that the games failed financially, not that they were permanently unplayable after they bombed and their servers got taken offline.
