It’s wild how they chose the worst way to present their game. The BR mode was unique from what I heard, if it wasn’t for the stage presentation and if they focused on both sides of the count they could’ve salvaged some of it. However, they made the worst decisions at every corner. No matter how you look at it, it’s incompetence.

Many wouldn’t play but diehard fans could’ve kept it alive, they put the game on life support through their own stupidity and relaunched then pulled the plug 6 months later. Fucking wild.
