Is this the most marketed game on Sup Forums since the original Borderlands?

Nah, Bioshock Infinite had legendary levels of shillery. I don't think anything will top it for a while.

Overwatch has 15+threads simultaniously since the last 8 hours

Yeah, and this one is really helping...

Overwatch has more hate threads than shill threads, I think.

Bioshock Infinite, Bloodborne and The Last of Us are by far the most shilled games though.

Since TOR, you mean. Could be, all discussion of any video game since the dawn of the internet is effectively marketing, hell even the first Doom became popular via world of mouth.

Is talking about video games shilling now?

>more hate threads than shill threads
no
Look at the Catalog

I'm willing to believe that Bloodborne wasn't shilling, but plain old Sup Forums shitting itself. Dark Souls took over this board for like a year, and that was before the series got really popular.

yes.
you either shitpost, or you are shilling a game
Sup Forums in a nutshell.

Don't forget Witcher 3

Yes, because it's filed under vial marketing.

There are 9 OW threads right now
3 of which are asking why you haven't pre-ordered yet

I can't if it's bait or not anymore

There are 26+ Threads about Overwatch right now

Why is this allowed? Are mods Blizzard employees?

Reminder, talking about video games on Sup Forums is bad

Why would anyone go to Sup Forums to talk about video games, there's r.eddit for that.

Sup Forums is for shitposting.

Could be. Blizzard paid more to post on Sup Forums than Gearbox did, but there's always inflation to consider.

Yeah, games, plural. Not one shit game, all the shit games.

Dark souls was pretty bad last month

I think it's a new form of meta-shitposting, where the normies that have invested Sup Forums for the last several years finally picked up on what shilling means, and they've grown hyper paranoid about everything being a shill.

In turn, people are purposely making threads that look like shills to agitate the paranoia.

Making 20+ threads simultaneously.

Shitposting any competition Overwatch has (TF2, Battleborn, etc.) relentlessly.

Posting in any unrelated thread with "Who cares, I'm playing Overwatch tonight!"

You're not just talking about a fucking video game Pajeet. Now respond to this post and earn yourself another nickel, slave.

I never believed in shills until now. I've never seen such a bland, boring piece of shit game get this much attention. Even Reddit thought Overwatch wasn't that good.

You'd be surprised how often companies use Sup Forums to viral market their games. It happens on a daily basis.

Witcher 3

Sure, but Blizzard doesn't need THAT much exposure. For every couple of posts about OW, there is someone responding about shills. And getting worse. If I had to guess Bliz is shilling (they might, I don't think they need to here) one actual shill thread is made for every 5 that are to appear as a shill thread.

It gets (you)s

It's meta-bait.

Overwatch is literally one of the biggest games to be released in years, why aren't people allowed to talk about the game seeing how popular it is?

The best way for shills to convince people they're not marketers is to say they're just innocent fans that dindu nuffin.

>Overwatch is literally one of the biggest games to be released in years
It's as big as any other AAA release.

>why aren't people allowed to talk about the game seeing how popular it is?
You're not 'just talking about it'.

>biggest
Marketing-wise = Shilling
It's a tiny game otherwise with next to no content.

>why aren't people allowed to talk about the game seeing how popular it is?
there's a difference between talking about a game, and spamming millions of threads over nothing (X hours guys! post memes! mei is thick!) and then filling those threads with no actual discussion about the fucking game

That's really how you tell no one cares and the game will die, the game itself is boring to talk about

>game has females for people to waifu fag over
>gets a lot of threads

Not really surprising for Sup Forums at all.

You're the one spamming up the board

I wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't for the shills

Like I said, they might be, but I've been here long enough to see the difference between shills and bait.

If they were shilling, you'd think the constant reactions calling them shills would reason them to stop, instead it's egging on more threads, some of which are pretty obviously trying to appear as poor shills.

I'm saying some are probably shills, some are legit excites waifufags, some are people shitposting.
