    So unexpected! Who could have thought that making such an unique game would end like this?

    I mean, this is a shooter where people choose a hero with an unique loadout and set of skills and battle with therr team against another team of these heroes.

    We could call it… idk… Hero Shooter! I’m sure I haven’t seen a game like this before!

      Highguard did actually have some unique things that made it stand out like the raiding aspect.

      The bigger problem is it was under baked. They released basically a demo after getting featured at the Game Awards instead of taking the time to finish building out the game.

      The innovation of high guard is so profound that it’ll spawn a whole genre of games. They’ll copy everything, even the name, but they’ll use a thesaurus like high to over and guard to watch, that sort of cheap knock-off style of game you know? But gamers are too savvy for that kind of chump move.
