Concord Cancelled

[Kev Inkline]

I'm kinda bummed out that Concord didn't last longer, for the reason that there was apparently supposed to be new characters added in the future, and I'm morbidly curious as to how those would've turned out.

Morbidly obese, I reckon.

What was the starting budget this piece of shit had?
Millions of dollars?
And it completely flopped?

100~ million and it sold less than a million in profit and flopped so hard that even mainstream media outlets were reporting its failure.

I heard it was a quarter of a billion dollars.

Goddamn...
Complete and utter trainwreck.

Only thing which would make this better if there was leak about what passed as market research in the studio.

Wait for the Jason Schreier article.

I heard it was a quarter of a billion dollars.

Most of the articles said it was ~100$ so I think that's a safe bet, I doubt Sony or Firewalk are gonna release the actual budget because it would be too embarrassing.

‘Concord is one of the best video games I’ve ever played’​

This may sound ridiculous to you, but I genuinely believe that Concord is one of the best games I’ve ever played, and I say that as someone who has been gaming regularly for over 30 years.

For fuck's sake this Concord as Lost Cause narrative is pathetic. Don't show your ass like this, it failed on its own (lack of) merit.

Surely there can't be any money attached to doing PR any more? The game is literally dead.

Devs and companies doing quality PR?
All these fucks do is engage in customer shaming and retarded social justice politics.

Look at it this way.
If these people weren't so shit at what they do, we wouldn't be so entertained.

The comical thing is that while literally nobody is playing this, i bet you that there are people playing E.T. on Atari right now, lol.

And someone managed to fix the issues with that game as well.

Good. You would think losing 200 million would make a publisher re-think the next major investment and try something different. Sadly this never seems to be the case, its like they just hold off developing anything until they see a new trend to clone. I'm pretty much retro/indy gamer at this point, idc if EA,Actiblizz,Ubi,Sony etc. ever publish another game.

Maybe someone can convince Amanda (?) to release some concept art

Nah, he fell asleep in front of his PC and got transported into the world of Concord.

Now he is stuck there until he can 100% the achievements.

Lol, for the few that actually enjoy it, they got to play the game for a whole week. Fastest live service game death ever.

Why are you guys so negative? This lasted 2 whole days longer than The Day Before.
