Leynos said: I thought the gaming world left the moniker of "X/Y Killer" in the 7th generation. Killzone the Halo Killer! Gunvalkyrie the Metroid Killer! With very few exceptions it never works and usually backfires badly. Maybe I wasn't paying enough attention but I don't remember anyone saying Zelda Killer. |
In particular I really miss the era of 'WoW-killers'. How many big name studios fell for that particular honey trap.
Ironically FFXIV which originally had one of the most disastrous launches for a game ever, ended up having one of the greatest comebacks with Realm Reborn and is perhaps the premiere MMO on the market now; as far as quality at least, since some people still refuse to move on from that outdated dinosaur WoW.
