2015 is the year of many great betas – but which ones did you play and where did you get stuck?
The Fall of Betas
Another Friday is here and the week has finally come to a close. And what do we love to do on the weekends? Right, gaming! Currently, there is a bit of a lack of promising new releases (aside from Heart of Thorns), but beta tests are popping up everywhere.
Whether it’s big titles in the MMO sector, like Black Desert and Blade & Soul or the cute Dragomon Hunter. But also on the action front, there’s a lot to test with Overwatch and Battleborn . And millions of players recently checked out the beta version of Star Wars Battlefront. It’s time for us to bug you with our question again: Which beta are you currently playing and which one has excited you?
Cortyn says: This is one “Mein-MMO asks” to which I have a rather negative stance. Many of the current beta games simply do not interest me because they take the madness of the so-called “founder packages” to the extreme. Simply based on appearance, I wanted to give Blade & Soul and Black Desert a chance, but such sales strategies still deter me a bit. Maybe I’m just too old-fashioned in this regard, but a founder package for a game that has long been released in other countries makes me frown in doubt.
On the other hand, Overwatch is different. Since I am not in the beta yet (but a trustworthy source tells me I will be lucky soon), I consume quite a few streams and already know: I will get hooked on this game. For me, the “Beta Fall 2015” consists of Overwatch only – but it’s likely very different for many of you.
But now it’s finally your turn! Which beta tests have you participated in over the past weeks and months? Which games did you enjoy and which disappeared from your hard drive after just a few moments? Let us know in the comments and engage in discussion!
