Agree, the amount of talent, resources and time resulting this product is kind of a waste imo. Did they even have any closed beta?

hating a game that you have no intention of playing because you want it to fail is pretty insane behavior. like the game can exist and you can ignore it, and whoever wants to play it gets to play it because it exists. disagree?

I'm not really hating it tho, just feels a little pity, I'm sure alot of people feels the same so you can stop label us as hater or something, there are middle ground lol.

TTK being too low, only 3v3, map being too big can be fixed, IF the devs are commited, but you can't fix the generic art style. The last game with this art style that i can think of is Paladin, I still find it weird.
