    Unfortunate timing for a hero shooter. Competitive players have moved to Deadlock while casual fans have moved on to Marvel Rivals. Should’ve added a deck of cards and rogue-like elements.

    That’s rough. Seemed like the team really wanted the game to survive and not be another Concord. They even listened to the community and made some well-recieved changes after their horrible launch. This doesn’t bode well.

      Yeah I always think this stuff is sad. Even if the game wasn’t great, it just sucks to see hard work go to waste.

    Producers treating games like a slot machine. If it’s jackpot on release they keep investing like the addicts they are. But if they lose they just go to another machine.
