From a launch perspective
I didn’t dig some of the thingsBattlebornended up doing (particularly the main MOBA angle), but over time, I can see myself enjoying it more — especially if Gearbox actuallykeeps up with its planned regular updates.
But some people seem to be digging it, as the developer notes that the game is “tracking just ahead” of the originalBorderlands, when you consider its launch sales period. They go on to note thatBorderlandsold eight million over its lifetime, and they basically expect the same here.
We’ll see.Borderlandsdefinitely had that watercooler word-of-mouth effect, like you “had” to at least try it out and play with friends.Battleborndoesn’t have quite the same appeal.
Gearbox is ‘cautiously optimistic’ about Battleborn’s sales potential[MCV]
