Extraction shooters are "popular", but nobody wants to play anything other than the ones they're already playing and nobody who's not already playing them wants to play them. Also the setting and characters are boring an uninspired.

almost had the perfect post.
But it is a good game. You can say you just didnt like it. But it is objectively a good game. Stop playing your moronic contrarian schtick for one second you Black folk

hogwarts maybe the most hilarious yet also infuriating case of just deserts ive ever seen in gaming.
Hilarious because all the backlash and vitriol to it and people playing it was utterly pathetic and hypocritical.
Infuriating because another shitty ubishit sandbox sold gangbusters.
it sold like 10 millions units but the first one sold 27 millions
It's the same story with nu gow of war.
It turns out adding Black folk, trannies and homosexuals to your games isn't appealing.
>+4 million sales was enough to recoup that
Wrong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewEDE-NhrXE
I am asking what leaks this anon

>Hogwarts
That shit was absolutely hysterical. The game was packed full of pozzed shit and the license alone brought in a ton of non-gamers (especially women). It was literally everything the woke crowd have ever wanted in the video game industry but they HAD to hate it because JKR was guilty of wrongthink. Utterly insane. The only good thing to come out of it was forcing Twitter troons to acknowledge just how little power they have outside of their echochambers after the game sold gangbusters anyway,
good games with visible soul in them like BG3 find success
I mean, I'm glad these pen and paper fat nerds are apparently happy wit their game and Swen seems to really care
But the game is still ugly dogwater
Created by Creative Assembly, who make the total war games (and alien isolation for some fricking reason)
cost 100 million dollars to make and got canned lol, 100 fricking million
It is, but even normalgays can see that you aren't "sticking it to the man" by collecting merch in a microtransaction game. It's like the game is actually about mocking gamers not about mocking corporate fat cats.
Its a hero looter shooter extraction live service game its all over the place and It did nothing interesting seriously even If this game looked amazing graphicly It would have flopped because it does nothing to truly stand out from the crowd except combine three types of live service games that are popular poorly and their are way to many better live service games for anyone to consider this one It getting canceled was the smartest decision they could have done.
These characters look so random and overdesigned as if they made with AI. Only the FBI woman with the sniper rifle on the left looks pretty normal. The whole project was just a shitty attempt at trying to appeal to zoomers who like hero shooters with wacky characters and crazy colors.
Hyena was just a test, as they had Sonic Superstars and The Frontiers Update as safety nets.
Obviously, game turned out more forgettable than Anything by Chucklefrick(fish), and thus was shit.
>Hyena was just a test,
Hyenas were in a full scale development for at least four years, worked on by some 100-200 developers.
That is not exactly what I would call "A test".
design by committee dogshit which appeals to nobody
completely devoid of any soul or substance
hideous characters
stale gameplay
live service games are a big investment and people usually only play one. there are hundreds of them this shit game would have to compete with
just look at it
What am I supposed to be looking for?
Extraction shooters are "popular", but nobody wants to play anything other than the ones they're already playing and nobody who's not already playing them wants to play them. Also the setting and characters are boring an uninspired.
it wasn't even an extraction shooter, it was king of the hill lol

Lmfao
But it is a good game. You can say you just didnt like it. But it is objectively a good game. Stop playing your moronic contrarian schtick for one second you Black folk
gameplay was boring so it’s a bad game to me
>NOOOOOO YOU CAN'T SAY THIS GAME IS BAD, BECAUSE IT'S OBJECTIVELY GOOD, AND IF YOU DISAGREE YOU'RE JUST A HECKIN CONTRARIAN
erm.. what the reddit?
> good
> when the gameplay is absolutely boring and the romance options are either gay or cucked
sounds more like you don't have good taste in grills
I guess if you like gay deviant bestiality and bad writing you could consider it a good game
not for me but I will agree it is an objectively interesting/valuable game
hogwarts is troony trash all the same, the outcry was just because trannies don't like Rowling because she said men in wigs aren't women
who the frick is sam maggs
*rapes her*
>actual good games like bg3
almost had the perfect post.
You haters are the worst kind. Its a good game you just need to admit you huff your own shit fumes
Give it up, anon. There are people who still insist that it's a travesty of a game that flopped hard and will put Larian out of business.
Careful, starslop homosexuals will not like this post.
>good games like BG3
gameplay is just a buzzword
>bg3 comes out
>IT'S POZZED GARBAGE THAT'S GOING TO FLOP, gayS AND Black folk AND KEKS EVERYWHERE, GET WOKE GO BRO-
>bg3 doesn't flop
>i l-liked it all along guys! the gay companions aren't woke because they're...le soulful!
it doesn't have gay companions though. everyone is playersexual
Not him, but I bought it while it was in EA
BG3 and hogwarts are also pieces of trash
hogwarts maybe the most hilarious yet also infuriating case of just deserts ive ever seen in gaming.
Hilarious because all the backlash and vitriol to it and people playing it was utterly pathetic and hypocritical.
Infuriating because another shitty ubishit sandbox sold gangbusters.
>>sam maggs keeps getting fired and her "work" keeps getting retconned
What's the story here?
bg3 sucks though
It's normalgay
>TLOU2 is confirmed to be a financial flop through sony leaks and the multiplayer is canned
I missed this. link?
So how well did TLOU2 actually sell, did they earn all that much profit in the end?
it sold like 10 millions units but the first one sold 27 millions
It's the same story with nu gow of war.
It turns out adding Black folk, trannies and homosexuals to your games isn't appealing.
+4 million sales was enough to recoup that. not sure what that article is supposed to prove. I'm more interested in the leaks that were mentioned.
>+4 million sales was enough to recoup that
Wrong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewEDE-NhrXE
Four million sales =/= $200m+, and that's even if they were all sold at retail, which they weren't, the game was on sale like weeks after release.
And that's why we'll never see TLOU 3, since they already bled money on 2.
I am asking what leaks this anon
was referencing.
Court leaks. Watch the video.
>Hogwarts
That shit was absolutely hysterical. The game was packed full of pozzed shit and the license alone brought in a ton of non-gamers (especially women).

The only good thing to come out of it was forcing Twitter troons to acknowledge just how little power they have outside of their echochambers after the game sold gangbusters anyway,
And with a huge success like that, a sequel is definitely coming. Then the circus will start all over again.
It had one Black person and one hastily added troony they couldn't even get a VA for, it wasn't packed full of pozzed shit at all.
but the troons said we lost the culture war!?
>actually good games with visible soul in them like BG3 find success
>good
>soul
Lmao
good games with visible soul in them like BG3 find success
I mean, I'm glad these pen and paper fat nerds are apparently happy wit their game and Swen seems to really care
But the game is still ugly dogwater
Anyway yeah, the industry is healing
>games that are designed with gameplay forward flop
>cutscene romance simulator with the 'gameplay' of a kitbashed 5e module sells like hotcakes
What people are actually learning from this is that the modern audience doesnt actually want video games
>actually good games with visible soul in them like BG3
Not enough repulsive looking mutts and drag queens
I've never heard of this game, but I can see why just by looking at that disgusting image.

>we're fighting against the fascist nazi corporations by shooting bubble guns at eachother, and collecting funko pops!
r/mademesmile
It turns out that "billionaire man bad" crowd is not that big.
It is, just not in the way they think.
it is, but that's not what this game was about
Everyone hates billionaires though, but at the same time they also have their favorite ones.
i don't. I'm not insane.
It is, but even normalgays can see that you aren't "sticking it to the man" by collecting merch in a microtransaction game. It's like the game is actually about mocking gamers not about mocking corporate fat cats.
>I hate billionaires!
>me too! how are we gonna show them who's boss?!
>by stealing their wham cassette tapes of course!
>fight the power by obsessing over pop culture detritus
it might be satire if these people didn't actually think that way.
Post the character intros
You don't actually play as cute hyena people.
Okay, I'll give it to you straight. I'll give it to you straight, like a pear cider that's made from a 100 percent pears, the game is shit.
it didnt fail it just says they must go
Very bad reception from players who played closed beta.
>it got canned
did some of the execs watch the trailers for the first time or did the esg pot run dry?
>give it to me straight
Hyenas definitlely didn't
trend chasing and several years late at that. the management that greenlit this project should be thrown out on their asses by SEGA.
Its a hero looter shooter extraction live service game its all over the place and It did nothing interesting seriously even If this game looked amazing graphicly It would have flopped because it does nothing to truly stand out from the crowd except combine three types of live service games that are popular poorly and their are way to many better live service games for anyone to consider this one It getting canceled was the smartest decision they could have done.
It's good that it didn't succeed.
However, isn't it terrible that something like this was made in the first place?
Yes
Not one hyena in sight.
Every time I see this game I'm impressed by the character designs but I'm not sure I have the strength to play a gacha again.
>ALL HYENAS MUST GO
Somebody post the Sandy image
These characters look so random and overdesigned as if they made with AI. Only the FBI woman with the sniper rifle on the left looks pretty normal. The whole project was just a shitty attempt at trying to appeal to zoomers who like hero shooters with wacky characters and crazy colors.
NOT FOR WOKE REASONS. I blame white men. NOT FOR WOKE REASONS.
Hyenas Steam discussion forums are the only thing worthwhile from this shitshow.
The hero shooter genre is dead
>Ganker
>straight
all hyenas must go
Is this Japanese game?
Obviously not.
No cute hyena girls.
Hyena was just a test, as they had Sonic Superstars and The Frontiers Update as safety nets.
Obviously, game turned out more forgettable than Anything by Chucklefrick(fish), and thus was shit.
>Hyena was just a test,
Hyenas were in a full scale development for at least four years, worked on by some 100-200 developers.

It looks like Lawbreakers and Radical Heights in rolled into one disaster waiting to happen. SEGA made the right decision.
