Interesting timing…
I’m amazed they are still running
What? How the fuck it is still running?
Long enough to be legal to do so I’m sure. They probably wanted to shut them down the day they cancelled the overhaul update
They were still alive?
Lmao. Ubi shuts down The Crew, but EA is like, “idk, give anthem another 6 months.”
The Crew(2014-2024) lasted a bit more than Anthem (2019-2026) . And Ubi seems to stick for longer with their flops compared to EA.
It was just a jab at the current Stop Killing Games stuff that is going on.
i thought this died like 2 years ago
Was it ever actually alive?
What is dead may never die.
It is still running??
Better shut it down before SKG games gets turned into a law 🙄
I dunno, it’d serve them right. We could blame SKG for giving us Anthem forever.
Don’t get me wrong, I hope it does, but realistically the EU will likely just ignore the petition by giving a quick no vote and continue with their lives.
Careful.
DreamWorks SKG?
The fuck? I never knew it was still running. I thought it went down as soon as the game bombed?
I actually loved the mechanics of this game, the gunplay and flying controls were so tight
I was hoping EA would greenlight the overhaul project, as I also really liked the flight and combat. I understand why they didn’t, but it still sucks to see this.
unfortunately there’s a nearly 0% chance that such a project would make the kind of money that EA wants from their games
For real, it was legitimately a fun game. I still love the Interceptor. I should redownload it and take some pics before the servers die.
I have the same feelings toward Outriders. It’s fun, it has an interesting premise and serviceable story, and the player character is a cocky bitch (or son of one) who knows they’re the main character in the best possible way
Oh no! Anyway…
I’m likely in the minority here, but I really enjoyed my time with Anthem.
Since it was shitcanned months after release, there simply was not enough content to keep playing… But what was there always felt special.
I never understood the hate. The gameplay was incredible.
The biggest complaints pretty much boiled down to it not having literal infinite replayability. Like, you have to give it a minute.
I played Destiny at launch, and Anthem at launch was better.
There was quite a bit of trendy EA-hate. Some of the criticisms were well deserved though. The game was plagued with severe technical issues at launch: the multiplayer was especially busted.
Also the open world map feels much too small when compared to similar games. I remember the disappoint I felt when I realized “oh this is not the first zone, this is THE zone”.
Regardless, I also played Destiny (2) ; while I have to admit it is a better product, I enjoyed Anthem more.
To be fair, the playable space in Anthem was in three dimensions. Meanwhile Destiny’s maps are deceptively small, using tunnels that wind in on themselves and non-explorable space to feel larger.
Yeah, more zones would have been good, but none of that compares to having some of the tightest combat and traversal gameplay I’ve ever experienced.
Agreed. It felt like such a waste of potential.
My only gripe is that the game gave me all kinds of freedom choose my character’s backstory, but I had to treat Owen like he was some kinda moron. Motherfucker let me give him my Colossus, I never use it and he will be impervious in it
No, he’s not ready, and my character does everything in her power to ensure that he never will be. Owen did nothing wrong. He “stole” the Javelin of Dawn, and surpise surprise he’s a competent pilot. I only wish I could have supported him the entire time
Thought for sure I heard they were shutdown ages ago, guess not.
