Hundreds?!

Wow, they really managed to get the whole playerbase to sign the petition.

Whoever still played need to be really invested. So wouldn't be surprised if you are right

If you haven't played Anthem, you missed out.

It has some of the tightest gameplay I've ever experienced. Combat was satisfying. Traversal was a joy.

I'll never understand how people could throw that away just because the endgame wasn't there yet. The gameplay is the hardest part to get right!

Save it? A bit late on that one lol. Shit was stillborn :/

I was under the impression they pulled this shortly after launch. Did it come back at some point?

[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago

No, but they've kept the servers on all this time so while the games was not getting updates it was still playable.

Wait are we talking the major live service iron Man game that completely flopped?

They kept it going?

I uninstalled when EA denied Bioware the resources for the overhaul project, since that meant it was only a matter of time before the plug got pulled. Super disappointing too, since Anthem would've been my "perfect" game, had they reworked it to a good state.
