#highguard — Public Fediverse posts

I was never happy to see #Highguard failfor the people who worked hard on it and had nothing to do with the awful leadership.

I was happy the studio closed for the pretentious, condescending, imperious mfs. Glad they're back to put the fries in the bag.

Of course people want an artificially hyped, bland, meritless game to fail. It's nature.

« #Highguard deserved better »

No, it didn't.

They played their cards wrong. Every single card, from the first one, to the last one. And they all cards to be successful, but bottled it.

you launch WITHOUT <Killer Feature> anyway, well that's just saying to customers "here, take our half assed unfinished shit and like it. Give us money because we're #Bungie!" - that doesn't sit well with me.

I see #Marathon rocking its own junk on a bollard and dissappearing in a month or two just like #highguard or #concord.

Meanwhile I have six hundred hours in #ArcRaiders after its launch 4 months ago and its still fresh.

3/3

It started, #Marathon opens to 85K players its first day.

#Highguard opened to 100K
#Helldivers2 opened to 65K
#ArcRaiders opened to 260K 🔥

Good luck to the #Bungie developers. They will need it. A whole fucking lot of luck against this fierce competition.

If #Tencent is involved, "indie" is not a valid label for your studio.

Just to add insult to injury, #Highguard got a 96% drop-off after... 2 weeks.

Expecting the 5v5 mode would bring players back was wishful thinking.

If you ask me, the game requires a major, 12~18 months rework. Layoffs mean they don't have the money and won't have the time or workforce.

Leadership is cutting their loses. Sad, but is justice.

LOL, we have #Concord 3 incoming.

This is what happens when the gaming industry chases the live service carrot exclusively: live service slop.

#Highguard did not die because of Geoff, or negative hype. It died because of its design. It's average, and that's is not enough on a crowded space.

I'm still behind the idea that this game should have been in #EarlyAccess and listen. Now? It won't bounce back fast enough to reverse the situation.

I'm glad that #SkillUp and #LegendaryDrops, who have more experience on videogames, shared their clear thoughs about #Highguard.

I coincide with them: the game requires heavy work to have a shot at being successfull. Each day it passes without it, it's closer to shutdown.

Would have people been more forgiving if it was released as Early Access?

No, Dr Disrespect Was Not Invited To Play Highguard

The internet’s social corners are ablaze following a recent claim from Dr Disrespect that he was invited to…

I can confirm #Highguard does not work on #Linux.

There are chances it will, but I don't have my hopes up for #WildlightEntertainment to magically bring the game to the tux.

#Videogames #Gaming #Games #MOBA #HeroSHooter #Multiplayer #Steam #FPS

Seems that #Highguard is just Apex with Defend the Base and breakable walls and horses.

Also, HAMMER AMMO.

I don't know if I should feel blessed or cursed that this does not run on Linux (Kernel-Level Anti-cheat, Secure Boot).

That #Highguard has afraid to fail, so they invited fanboys and ignorant pricks that will praise anything that moves.

The game is doomed to fail, and I will be glad to see come down to hundreds of players at peak.

I believe that Atraes is right.

People, especially kids, do not have time to test new games that feel like the same previous game they're already playing with a new skin.

First, it was #SuicideSquad.
Then, it was #Concord.
Fainlly, we will have #Highguard.

I believe the guys at #Highguard did the right thing: stay silent until release.

The negativity is unavoidable.

The game has to stand on its own. Any other words outside of it, like those by the developers or Geoff himself, are going to be scrutinized into oblivion.

So I played #MetroidPrime4 past weekend.

It bored me after the lazo upgrade. I just went to check a let's play, saw the ending on YouTube, and move on.

I believe I'm ready to shit on #Highguard once it releases, not before playing #Dispatch now that it's complete.

Possible biggest failures of gaming for 2026

- #KingOfMeat: Missplaced marketing + Saturated market
- #Highguard: Missplaced expectations + Saturated market

I know King of Meat released this year, but it's out of the cut of awards season, so I'll put it there.
