IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN (insert bad live service game of choice here). NOT HIM. ITS NOT FAAAIIIRRRRRR.

Nice summer game, still failed

Battle Royale de luta, com sistemas retirados de jogos de luta. Super divertido, me fez comprar o Battle Pass. Talvez com o tempo algumas coisas fossem aperfeiçoadas, mas infelizmente o jogo foi descontinuado.

The REAL fatal flaw was the game's success was dependent on selling cosmetics for characters whose cartoonishly exaggerated bodies and faces that look like a dog's prolapsed asshole. Yeah, let me spend 18 dollars for this disco outfit to put on my guy who looks like a PS3 rendering of what 8 generations of inbreeding looks like. This will be the entire basis of monetization. There's no way this will shut down in less than 6 months.

If you play fighting games and are good working with frames, you could generate gamer moments. The kind that will generate every slur from the even most socially conscious pacifist.

Smacking a dude against the wall, and then tackling him after he peels off the wall, and then doing a fucked up Street Fighter combo on them until they are dead is what I like to think Jeff Bezos feels every time an Amazon warehouse employee is crushed by an unsecured palette of like dog food and sex toys: pure joy.

If you time it right, you can beat on a dude for 20 seconds completely uninterrupted and they cannot do anything about their stunned state unless you miss an attack or are too slow on input. 20 seconds feels like a lifetime to get beat up on. You could have experienced all the stages of grief -- going to therapy to disseminate the anguish -- and heal from the trauma -- in the time it takes to be let go from certain combos. It is a biblical hell unlike anything I've seen. Absolutely hilarious every time.

It is the most tilting experience to get fucked on. But the dopamine from fucking over people whose character models look like they were born in Chernobyl after 1980 - is god tier. It's probably the closest thing some gamers have felt to having someone love them.

The devs say they are shopping around for another publisher. But if I was the prospective publisher, my first move would be to grab and piledrive the art director from the top of a skyscraper onto a taxi and into a shallow kiddie pool for the crime of making people look at this motherfucking game's art style.

Rip in peace Rumbleverse. Your name was really bad and you released at the start of a long market crash, but it was fun to pulverize the hearts and minds of men into dust while looking like a clay sculpture of an aborted fetus.

Goodbye for now, sweet prince.
