Yea my personal unbridled love for Anthem is well documented haha. Thatโ€™s what makes these two (Concord, Highguard) so unique. Anthem had ongoing support, communication, and plans for roughly a year+ after release. These games were basically shut down within weeks. Bananas

Anthem received an entire expansion update 6 months after release that added new story content, a new zone, and game mode and after that, went into development on Anthem 2.0. It wasnโ€™t phased out nearly as quickly as these two seem to be.

Marathon is a very interesting example. I could be wrong, but the overall reception from gamers has felt largely negative. But as you mentioned, they have done a lot of testing & adjusting. Curious to see how it will fare overall

Itโ€™s so wild to see it play out though cause I feel like they should know the stakes going in at this point and that should be factored in from the outset. So to have essentially miscalculated to such a degree that youโ€™d toss it all so quickly after however many years of work is truly something

Same. Iโ€™m interested, but not sure if Iโ€™m spend money on a movie ticket interestedโ€ฆor wait til it shows up on Disney+ interested

What once was unprecedented is now normal? Wild. Iโ€™d be fascinated to get some sort of inside information on what goes on internally from the business side that leads them to so quickly seemingly feel like these situations were unsalvageable

Highguardโ€™s website now is unavailable

As long as Iโ€™ve been gaming (no need to do the mathโ€ฆold) Concord was the first time I recall ever seeing an example of something like that. To now see it twice in such a short spanโ€ฆ

Yea Iโ€™m still on the fence a little myself. But I agree this definitely looks better than what they showed previously

Honestly Iโ€™d probably say 3 cause it was the culmination of everything that came before. But 1 has a special place in my heart for starting it all.

Ok Iโ€™m only 2 episodes in to Wonder Man but Iโ€™m loving this so far and itโ€™s completely unexpected. Alsoโ€ฆall of Hollywood and the movies/actors weโ€™ve seen in real life simultaneously existing in the MCU is kinda screwing with my mind

Shepard as I replay the Mass Effect trilogy for the 12th time and make all the same choices

Itโ€™s definitely makes me personally more invested. As you point out, it feels like MY character and their adventure. Even if it doesnโ€™t have the narrative choices of say a Mass Effect, just seeing the character I โ€œcreatedโ€ in scenes pulls me in more. But maybe thatโ€™s me

Unpopular opinion(maybe?):

As much as I enjoy the Star Wars Jedi games (& look forward to the next entry) I think they would be significantly better without Cal Kestis & instead, we had a voiced, completely customizable protagonist that we could carry through game to game Shepard/Mass Effect style
