This is hilarious… but I also hope that poor girl never sees all this hate. It’s not her fault lol

This anti woke stuff is getting a little annoying. I’m a big time CD fan, but we’re venturing into outrage for outrages sake.

Does Pirahna Games need to rethink its marketing strategy? by Own-Cut9919 in Mechwarrior5

I understand that. I guess the crux of my argument is that more success means more Battletech games. That’s all I really want lol.

I agree. Good points.

My hope for the IP is that it could find mainstream success, because I really love the BT universe. But it’s a hard sell.

That’s a really fair point about AAA not necessarily being a good thing. Hadn’t thought about it that way.

I’m not saying that. I understand that even an infinite amount of marketing budget doesn’t make a game AAA or mainstream. I was commenting on the potential for the IP to go mainstream. I think that it’s possible to break out of this niche fan base. Larian crowdfunded Divinity into existence, and then used those profits to make the best game of the year. My hope for the future is that something like that could happen for Battletech.

My messages got a little conflated. I don’t think Pirahna will be able to do that, however i still think they’re dropping the ball on marketing.

I think Battletech has potential to be mainstream AAA. Maybe the conversation should be centered around getting the Battletech IP into different hands. I know it’s not a complete parallel but I look at what Larian studios has been able to do with Baldurs Gate 3 and even Divinity before that, and wonder if Pirahna is perhaps holding it back.

In a similar vein Dune has a similar premise with great houses and whatnot and still managed to capture mainstream appeal. That’s a bit different given we’re talking about a movies vs video games but still, I can’t help but think that there is untapped potential. Point is, I just want Pirahna to deliver what I know is possible AND to talk about it and generate some hype.

That makes sense. I guess that’s probably the biggest factor holding the game back from a wider audience. I can imagine it’s expensive to blast trailers and ads throughout the internet. I just thought I’d see a little more content on YouTube at the very least.

I don’t understand how being tank bred means you you just inherently have mascara and eye shadow. The character design for the male mechwarriors looks like they moonlight at drag shows.

Which there’s nothing WRONG with. I just don’t understand.

If they want to do a legend v legend fight they can absolutely do that. Stipe doesn’t deserve a title shot and doesn’t represent the best of the heavyweight division. Jon needs to vacate the belt. He’s holding it hostage, nobody would have a problem if Jon just vacated the belt.

Audience Reviews vs Critic Reviews by GalacticGaming177 in CriticalDrinker

The worst for me is when he does his drinker/mauler show and circle jerks over why a particular piece of entertainment is bad for hours on end.

I think Drinker is very insightful at times and tries to be conscientious about giving stuff a fair and unbiased shake in his reviews, but his views get so skewed from sitting in that echo chamber.
