Kinda surprised they put Anthem on there. In comparison of all the others...it was...a little different.

I loved Anthem. They fucked that game up so bad.

The mechanics were great, but the UI was broken from day 1! What a brutal cycle that was.

The mechanics they absolutely nailed.

I just can't believe the team was told to stand down and the rest wasn't developed, because the base of a fantastic game was there. They had it

That may have not been the turning point in gaming discourse, but that was when I became fully aware of it.

Liking anthem was a guaranteed way to get relentlessly bullied online. It became the punch line for everything. People ripped it to shreds and tap danced on its grave.

It never had a chance. The team clearly had talent, and the leadership clearly had delusions.
