Natedog1958 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I played the game for most of the alpha and onward until it was pulled. It was honestly one of the best experiences of my life and I am still saddened to this day that I cannot play it anymore... please DE bring it back :( 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we didnt spoil the game to people outside of the alpha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 They were late for the hero shooter train. I think they saw the writing on the wall when other similar games (Battleborn, Lawbreakers etc.) flopped hard and decided to pull the plug.

Prexades Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 It was probably the right call to cancel it. That is not a judgement about the games quality, but the market was really crowded and a lot of titles flopped hard because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StinkyPygmy Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I played it and actually really enjoyed it. it had a unique ability system, characters, gameplay and really stood apart from other hero based shooter games like OW considering how over saturated the market was at the time. I was really disappointed to see it get canceled, but despite its unique take on the genre, pulling it was probably the right call. It likely would have done poorly because of how late it was to the party. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was it like? de wanted to jump on the hero shooter bandwagon (overwatch and all that crap) but they realized nobody gave 2 S#&$s about hero shooters anymore so they dropped it it had some card system like paladins. someone gave de the middle finger and streamed the game in prealpha even if it wasn't permitted this is all i remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobWasHere Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I played it, quite fun, active card system instead of Paladins passives was making matches really unpredictable and that was good. Oversaturated market at that time, poor character balance, some annoying mechanics like turret placement poorly made, horrid netcode and mindless hours of grind to progress. Game could succeed to some extend if it was released now, not back then with bigger starter playerbase (steam early access?). But looking at the past pulling it off and refunding the founders was wise decision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostedMike Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 The Amazing Eternals, I still have a computer with the game installed on it. Loved this game. I remember there were barely any players playing it so DE added bots to fill empty slots, but it wasn't enough. It was a buggy mess, but a damn fun one. I remember some names I played with constantly: Legit... Grayfoxx (I think)... We met in game, never beyond it. I remember memes and jokes (Stick Bristle, anyone?) I bought the founder pack and grinded the game up while waiting for the PoE update in Warframe. When PoE dropped, I stopped playing the game. When I returned, DE announced the next day about pulling it off. The game had some design issues and balancing issues. Hero shooters were all over the place so the market was tough. I wanted the game to succeed and I knew DE will fix everything there is to fix eventually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
