Since its launch in May of this year, XDefiant impressed in several ways. Not only is it a fun, well-designed arcade shooter, it seemed to have got off to a good start with its community, responding to feedback and keeping lines of communication open. Recently, however, the community sentiment has turned for the worse, with a souring of feeling among fans. With this coinciding with the game’s Twitch viewers plummeting, it looks like XDefiant is beginning to struggle.
