Which game was a bigger flop? anthem or exodus (poll)

Crackdown 3 was the biggest floppery of the flops and it ain't even close to both Metro Exodus or Anthem lol.

Everybody knew crackdown was going to be pure shit.

@n64dd: Just saying, both Anthem & Metro Exodus are miles ahead better then Crackdown 3 :)

@davillain-: irrelevant

If it makes you feel better, I voted Anthem and I don't even remember hearing Metro Exodus flop at all. You should've went with Crackdown 3 vs Anthem cause Metro Exodus didn't flop at all! A huge miss opportunity on Crackdown 3 vs Anthem here.

Didn't they just come out?

Between the two, I'd get Anthem. Just waiting for next year's more complete version. I learned from Destiny. Same thing with fighting games. Never buy the original release.

I dunno, didnt play both but fans of the game seems to really enjoy both game. Anthem in particular my friends been bugging me to join them, at this stage I probably will not but anyway they all still actively playing judging from their psn online status.

Don’t know, haven’t played either of them myself. I am interested in Anthem and hope that they continue to work on it to make it a better game.

I don't think Metro flopped. Anthem certainly did.

They both suck.

Metro has no chance of getting better. The game is done and it sucks.

Anthem has a small chance to get better in a year from now if they update it constantly.

So Anthem is the slightly less flop of the 2.

Out of the 2 I would argue that Anthem is the bigger flop. It was expected to be better, had more hype, and has the BioWare lineage.

But that’s just talking review scores. I’d rather play Anthem any day over Metro.

Wasn't Sniper the only one hyping Metro? And he still thinks it's the greatest thing ever, so it couldn't have flopped for him.

Metro Exodus is a flop ?!!!!!!!!

Metro Exodus was hyped as a 90+ game, so it's definitely a flop.

Most people expected Anthem to be shite. It's simply confirmation.

Well Metro Exodus is a great game.

Anthem could be considered a flop but we all know it'll be in beta for a few years before it becomes 'what it's supposed to be', just like all the live service games. Haven't played it though. Also what was the hype level?

Wait, metro flopped? In what galaxy?

Oh, and inb4ghosts4ever

Agreed, Exodus would be the candidate then.

Agree 100% man Anthem could improve exodus is fucked lol

Anthem is actually fun. Don’t get the negativity.

But youtubers had to get clicks before the day 1 patch and you tubers kinda rule minds that are weak.

I haven't played Exodus... So I can't comment on that. As for Anthem, I just finished the main storyline today at lvl 23. The story lacked any significant motivation, and the Dominion as a whole weren't all that foreboding. The Monitor kinda shat the bed, and it all detracted from the game. That being said, the gameplay is somewhat fun, but the missions are minimal in variation and it wears down.

Now, Anthem could get significantly better, but i'm not holding my breath. In fact, i'd go so far as to say that the entire universe could have been far more interesting had they gone with a SP coop game with serious ME vibes. Of course, EA makes money on MTs so that clearly couldn't happen.

Metro is a 83 on MC and 8 in GS which is decent and on par for the series. Not sure how it's a flop.

Anthem had great potential and us a 57 on MC and a 6 on GS. This shouldn't even be a discussion.

We all know Anthem is the flop here, but underneath all that negativity, there are fun aspects to the game.

The thing I hate about Exodus is the Epic Games "Exclusivity" bullshit, but other than that, Exodus is objectively a better game than Anthem.

Exodus was good. It wasn't great and sadly I prefer far cry new dawn. Metro was missing something. The end was to quick after that whole journey and it felt unfinished. The combat was excellent.

Anthem was suppose to be the next Destiny...lulz.

Exodus was just another metro game, and didn't think many people even knew or cared about the franchise.

Except that the game is still mediocre with the patch. There is no patch for lame missions and garbage loot.

Anyway, Anthem no doubt since they delivered a half baked game thanks to EA and their obsesive "game as a service" model ... Anthem could get better, sadly no one will be playing it in a few months from now.

Metro was actually solid in terms of reviews.

None feels like a flop to me. Metro seems as good as I thought it would be, same with Anthem. Some people hyped Anthem up for some reason though, so I guess I'll go with that.

Metro is great and Anthem is decent at best. Calling Metro a flop is pure trolling.

@madsnakehhh: do you think for yourself or do youtubers do your thinking for you?

Loot isn’t garbage.

Guns don’t have wings and glow in the dark but that’s not what this game is about. It’s about god rolls.

Reason why loot is good is bc of inscriptions. Chasing the god roll is addicting bc if the gameplay which is actually fun.

Troll thread

Metro flopped? Even worse, are we now taking Ghosts seriously on his nonsense hype to consider Metro a flop?

LOL at metro flop. like 8 i flop i mean seriously???

I even consider 7/10 a good games.

and Metro Exodus is by far best game of 2019 so far. you are missing out alot if you are skipping it for not getting 9/10.

@ghosts4ever: RE2 remake is the best game of 2019 till now.

Anthem didn't flop. Nor did Crackdown 3. CD3 lived up to the expectations of being a fun but middling game and Anthem is currently the best selling title in the UK .... not sure about the US though.

Metro Exodus had a strong chance to reach for the sky akin to how CD Projekt went from a relatively obscure presence to a extraordinarily powerful presence with one game. Unfortunately, it failed hard because of the vitriol caused by its sudden switch to Epic Game Store, that really hurt its potential word-of-mouth spread.

And it's not a particularly fantastic video game, there's an abundance of voice acting that is absolutely shit as a whole, they should have cut back on VA by a lot if they couldn't hire good actors because it really affects the experience at face value. The design of the environment is unnecessarily cluttered with detail that makes it a bit of a chore to look at; it basically feels like a crowded theme park that goes over its way to imitate the real thing.

There's a little bit of S.T.A.L.K.E.R in there, but not even close.

As for Anthem, how anyone expected anything out of Bioware after their previous failures is on them. For the rest of the world, we already knew Anthem was going to be a piece of shit - and it really doesn't matter how much you think they'll improve on it (don't get your hopes up, it's EA). Game's done, dead. Remember No Man's Sky? Literally buried under fifty tons of sand, no one even wants to remember that game because of its catastrophic initial release, despite the fact that these days it's a completely different game.

Anthem is hot trash and Metro scored 8's. Of course Anthem is the bigger flop. This sh*t is damn near Battlefront 2 all over again lol

@sealionact: Crackdown was a critical and commercial failure.

@ghosts4ever: lolno. Metro is garbage. Even Kh3 is better and Zelda links Awakening will blow it away. RE2make is way better than this crappy game. Metro is a generic bug filled unpolished turd.

KH3 is childish Disney game featuring girly characters from tangled and frozen lol. comparing it to badass atmospheric game like Metro.

@fedor: Nope. 60 on meta is the same as the number one game in the UK right now...Anthem. 7 negative reviews out of 70.

Not a critical success, but pretty much what everyone expected...middling.

Cd3 was also the most played xbox paid game last month.

Anthem it's a shitty soulless GaaS title that is so buggy and bad it will brick your PS4 in some cases.

@sealionact: 60 meta is a flop. Selling 3k copies first week in UK is a flop. Crackdown flopped.

Anthem, of course.

Exodus looks like a great game. Some people just don't seem to understand that 7s and 8s are also great scores, especially considering how high standards are lately.

@fedor: Nope. Read the figures. More cd3 players than metro and anthem, only behind fortnite and apex which were free.

You hate the game because it's a ms game, not because you hate it, and that's sad.

Metro Exodus is allright. It's just that Epic exclusive crap they had to deal with.

@sealionact: I don't hate the game, stop with the fallacies. It's a critical and commercial failure, denying it only makes you look foolish.

PS: Its clear you have no idea what commercial success means since you keep conflating it with how many people tried it for free on gamepass.

I'm absolutely disagreeing with you. You call it a critical failure, but thankfully you don't get to define what is "failure". CD3 was never touted as a AAA game. It's Crackdown .... we've had 2 games already, and CD3 is more of the same. It was never going to be a critical success .... it's the Sharknado of video games. Not pretty, not a wonderful storyline, just mindless fun.
But failure? 60 isn't "failure". It certainly isn't "flop" either. It's what it was always going to be which is middling.

Please do link me with the figures of how many people use Gamepass for free.

@sealionact: That's your argument? Lol, easiest win of my life.

Well, to do that you'd actually have to have countered the argument, or proved yours correct which you failed to do.....but whatever makes you happy.

@sealionact: I don't counter delusional people. I laugh at them. Proving a 60 meta with absolute minimal sales is a failure... Imagine thinking I need to even respond to such tripe. Try more strawman stuff, at least that was entertaining.
