I Believed In ‘Anthem,’ I Was Wrong

Forbes: “I gave Anthem second, third and fourth chances, but there now seems to be no viable path forward for the series at all.”

I believed in 'Jesus', I was wrong.

Steveoreno11771d ago

He still believes in you you.

Count_Bakula1771d ago (Edited 1771d ago )

"I believed in Jesus" and "I was wrong" are complete sentences; separate them with a period or semicolon. Things get tricky, though, with your apostrophes as quotations, in which case the punctuation would be inside if it's a period. We should probably use quotation marks, but we'll stick with your original apostrophes-as-quotation usage. Here, let's give it a try bud:

I believed in 'Jesus.' I was wrong.
I believed in 'Jesus'; I was wrong.

While the Forbes "writer" got the punctuation within apostrophes correct, he or she still failed with the complete sentences.

Oh and I believed in Anthem as well, unfortunately. A mistake—not unlike Paul Tassi's poor grammar comprehension—I shall not make again.

deno1771d ago

No worries brother. Your generations was prophesied long ago. I have that faith because everything is happening just as God said it would. I can even say: We are witness's even unto ourselves.

Maddens Raiders1771d ago

@Count_Bakula - those rules only apply in a classroom setting or white paper type submission where proper writing standards and mores apply usually per the instructor's discretion.

If one is their own author, editor, and publisher the standard, canonized writer's rules to which you allude, do not apply unfortunately. Welcome to 2019 where writer's rules don't matter much any more (amongst other norms and traditions left for a discussion on another day).

Salooh1771d ago (Edited 1771d ago )

As a muslim, your statement still bothers me because you don't like to follow jesus عليه السلام anymore. He is still a great example of humanity in both Christianity and Islam. You shouldn't abondon such figures, without their actions, morality would of been disturbed even more, they set a honourable standards to morality and humanity, dont stop learning from such figures because of the wrong interpretation of a religion. Be objective.

So much potential wasted. Game had it's faults, but was still fun.

killswitch801771d ago

I enjoyed it for what it is at the time...I only invested 14.99 to play the game and put 60 plus hours into it. I am sure I will revisit it in the future if they really do some serious changes.

Sniperwithacause1771d ago

Current problem I'm experiencing are with the lag, and the servers shutting down constantly. Just grinding for the platinum at this point.

UltraNova1771d ago

Got it used for 10 euros. Tried to log in EA's servers but I was always kicked out. This game is this gen's biggest failure.

King_Noctis1771d ago

I did at first as well.

Never put any trust in EA again, until all their pos managements are fired from the company.

deno1771d ago

It's next to impossible to trust them.

Anthem Sold A Solid 5 Million Copies In Its Lifetime

The multiplayer action RPG shipped a whopping 2 million copies in its first week alone.

JEECE129d ago

A nice piece of proof-as if anymore was needed-that a game isn't automatically a success if it sells "millions of copies."

RiseNShine129d ago

I don't know if it's still possible, but if it still works, PLAY IT. It's a fantastic RPG on it's own, incredible graphics and story, well worth the Bioware name, i don't know how bad it was on release, but when i played years later it was a great single player RPG well worth playing.

ChasterMies129d ago

This a good example of why you should be hesitant to buy a game at launch.

--Onilink--129d ago

Its has been on sale multiple times for like $2-3… and even when not that aggressively dropped, it is usually in the under $10 category of any sale

BlackCountryBob129d ago

That’s good, but also worth pointing out that after maybe 3 months on sale, this game was selling for about a tenner. Reminds me a bit of Days Gone, good sales overall but only after huge discounts so unlikely to make large profit

What a shitty f***** list! Most of the games on it were great fun. Bullshit list.

chantii_mmohaven472d ago

yep this is truly a b*tthurt list :/

MadLad472d ago

I think the only one I agreed on was Anthem, and even that isn't horrendous.

Knushwood Butt473d ago

Anthem; I'd forgotten that game existed. I remember thinking the trailer was BS though; turns out I was right.

Cueil471d ago

the game wasn't bad though

RavenWolfx472d ago

"Worst big budget games" and immediately lists Genshin Impact, a game that has $4 billion in revenue.

blackblades472d ago

$3 billion and counting along with alot of users. I disagree with that being on the list. This list is just a person opinion without merit

monkey602472d ago

I havent played Genshin Impact and Mafia 3 was alright. The rest though I kind of agree with.
I loved the 1st Kane and Lynch and I could not understand how the 2nd game was as bad as it was.

Aloymetal997d ago (Edited 997d ago )

Including indies I’ve bought like more than 20 games, good deals all around.

P_Bomb997d ago

I’ve overindulged too! Gonna pump the brakes on this next round. Unless there’s a PS+ discount. Need a cheap sub for my kid so I’m not always changing primaries.

solideagle997d ago (Edited 997d ago )

could you please suggest good indie games (which are on sale)? I love JRPGs or action RPGs but I can play almost any genre e.g. Transistor is £3.74 which I think is a steal :)

shinoff2183997d ago

Check out earthlock. Its pretty good

Old school jrpg try cosmic star heroine I really like that one

Aloymetal997d ago

Disco elysium, man eater, inside, limbo
Dead cells, observer, to name a few

LoveSpuds997d ago

Don't sleep on Darkest Dungeon, Child of Morta or Spiritfarer.

Although it won't be on sale, the best indie I have ever played is release in a week or so, it may be 20 quid but you have to play Hades.

GhostofHorizon997d ago

Told my partner to stop me from browsing. We'll see how that goes, the first part of the sale already got me.

ElvisHuxley997d ago (Edited 997d ago )

Anthem 85% off? Thought they went free to play. Has the game gotten any better?
Edit-Nvm, it's Europe anyway.

Hellcat2020997d ago

The second phase of sales is for all regions
It's just not yet showing up in the ps store

Servbot41997d ago

They abandoned Anthem. Typical EA.

CobraKai997d ago

I can’t believe they’re still trying to sell it

BioShockGX997d ago

Got Anthem for $5 last year. Not a bad game for that price lol

ElvisHuxley995d ago

Appreciate the downvotes folks. I guess merely asking a question bothers the incredibly mature users here.

I might finally go for Black Desert. I've been playing ESO (without MTing my characters) for some throw away entertainment, but the combat is so "#$&&%.

Servbot41997d ago

BDO sucks. Only good for the character creator.

anast997d ago

Is the combat worth it?

Phoenixryu997d ago

I tried BDO a few months ago. It's a decent game but I got bored of it pretty quickly. Combat is very action-based, it's fun but very repetitive. There are a lot of menus and most of the in-game systems are a bit more complicated than they needed to be. Some game modes won't let you buy and sell certain items until you convert to a different mode etc. Basically, the game is kind of convoluted.

phoenixwing997d ago

The mobs barely react in bdo. You can kill half of a mob of enemies before they'll even attack. You'll basically be grinding mobs until you can fight a boss that will even react well. Don't recommend it

anast996d ago

Thanks. Is there an alternative to ESO?

phoenixwing996d ago

@anast I'd recommend playing the single player version of es if you haven't exhausted your playthroughs

EvertonFC997d ago

Highly recommend the "metro saga bundle" £25 all 3 games and all DLC plus free upgrade for ps5 exodus 😊
