  Didn't they JUST reduce the price to $40? Is battle born that bad? Or are they trying to undercut overwatch at $40?

    It isn't bad. It is a MOBA combined with a co-op loot shooter and it isn't free. Apparently people expect the MOBA genre to be free.
    
    Gearbox has done a poor job of communicating what this game. Not that they have hid it, but they didn't blast it in everyone's faces and that means most people missed it.

  I'd have bought it last week if they'd had PC Deluxe for $39 on Amazon like they did the console versions. Now I'll just wait till it's cheap on a sale. Which will probably be next month at this rate.
