Could they have just picked a theme and stuck with it? This feels like if you asked an AI to make a popular AAA video game concept with no further instructions.

i picked three from there

I am so sick of extraction shooters, and the negative influence they've had on dungeon crawlers.

well it's basically a fusion of every hero shooter,it has mounts like paladin,it's sci fi like overwatch,superheros like marvel rivals,and the only twist is that you have to beat the ennemy team after you finish pushing the cart/payload

Except for the MMO mounts you just described Arknights, Star Wars, some episodes of Star Trek, and I assume Dune even though I have only seen clips of Dune.

>it has to fit into one single genre
why

What even is this game? Is it a BR, extraction shooter, just a regular hero shooter? They made it the final trailer for TGA and it's coming out this month but the trailer doesn't convey what exactly what type of game it is. The aesthetic being an nonuniform mishmash of other genres doesn't help.

>same shit but the map is a bajillion times larger
Todd wtf are you doing here

>>45379

>Arknights
Gacha.
>Star Wars
It's science fiction with a subtle undertone of fantasy.
>Star Trek
Star Trek is just science fiction.
>Dune
Dune is just science fiction, with an even more subtle undercurrent of the fantastical.

>>45379
Dungeon crawlers are busted, old man.

>>45389

we'll sell map expansions as DLC

…we go in, and go in, and go in, and lose the vaccine!

>gacha
Still a pretty good example of tacticool sci-fantasy with charcters specialized at specific tasks while aura farming–which is the essence of superhero stuff imo.
Reccomend it even though it's got pacing issues first few chapters.
>Star Trek is just science fiction.
Depends what planet they go to in a given episode, especially in the OG series.
>a subtle undertone/undercurrent of fantasy.
It's still there though, but I get you mean how it's blended.

Ultima Underworld-
>sips jolt cola
Ayyup, that was good game.

>>45402
>Still a pretty good
No gacha is good.
>Depends what planet they go to in a given episode
The only "fantasy" Star Trek entertained was the possible existence of psychic powers, which people thought was legitimate back when it was made.
>It's still there though, but I get you mean how it's blended.
People call Jedi "space wizards," but they're not casting fireball or whatever. The Force is basically magic, but it's a very subtle form of magic compared to how magic is portrayed in fantasy.

In Dune, the only thing that is potentially mystical is prescience, which Frank Herbert never really gives any kind of "scientific" explanation for. I would agree that the other powers are kind of fantastical, but Herbert at least tries to give them some kind of at least materialist explanation and tries to make it explicit that they're not magic.
