Concord Cancelled

[Dark Souls II]

Not related to Concord itself but Sony and their pursuit for live service shit and hero shooters:



For those who dont know, its another hero shooter slop but focused on heists/extract loot (just like the cancelled heist hero shooter "Hyenas" made by Total War devs, published by SEGA)



I will laugh my ass off if this flops as badly as Concord. TOTAL SNOY DEATH

Looks like a blatant rip-off of this masterpiece (also about a team of teenagers heisting corporations, similar color palette, but has lolis and a novel, real-lifelike mechanic of kidnapping women to force them into prostitution):

Guy at our local Gamestop equivalent said he's had many times more enquiries from people wanting to buy the game now it's been cancelled than when it was released.

Somehow Sony managed to create a game that's more popular now it's shut down and unplayable than when it was actually working.

They really took a decades old caricature of a nerd from a British comedy and sex changed it

The fact that Sony decided to release a live service hero shooter during a time where both have been disliked is a catastrophic error. In the defense of the development team though, the game has been in development since 2016, when both were in their infancy. Sony would have gotten much more money if they released a third Gravity Rush game and/or a PC port of Bloodborne. Hell, porting both Gravity Rush games to PC would have been a decent idea as well.

Lesson to take away is not to chase trends when games take eight years to make. Just make good games.

Bothers me that they're porting Gravity Rush 2 and not the superior first game.

Remember, they add woke goyslop to the media because it is profitable - the audience wants it! In no way there is a notion to peddle this kikeshit at every corner, a simple offer to demand, nothing more

Sunk cost. That many devs for 8 years is 120+ mil. Even people thinking this looked horrible didn't anticipate it failing this badly. Everyone was saying FTP in 6 months: Nobody called it dead in two weeks.

sony is the kindest big corpo in the world. insead of closing studio they decided to let poor bipocs of color to do the only thing they know - concord - for some more time.

Perhaps the game would still be alive today if it was filled with waifus.

Who wants to play a fat marsh mellow nigga bitch?

 

[damager]

Kids love overwatch and "hero shooters". Is it because they feel cool when they play these online games? This is the reason why concord bombed? Is it because concord aesthetics was more a parody of these cool kids? Poor kids. That so uncool to make irony of them.

Problem is the people represented in this game are not the "cool kids" in high school that play video games, it's social studies students and ugly swingers that go on kamala harris rallies

Some days, I just wonder how clueless Sony has become.

So they turned her into fat, ugly doomdyke. Ah, such SBI improvement much wow.

I don't fucking get it, do people want new stuff and got tired of rehashing old stuff and infinite sequels, or do they actually want all of that?

 

[rumSaint]

They think pandering to 0,0005% of audience will bring them money an people will buy their product. But reality is people know what is cool, landwhale with colorful hair with violent outbursts is not.

It brings me joy to see this kind of shit crash and burn. It's a matter of game being good and characters being pleasing to an eye. If I would like to look at something ugly, I have mirror in the bathroom.

Yeah, it's their parody, and at the same time a parody of the super-heroes themes. At least they are funny, compared with other similar games. What surprised me is that almost all the critics were about the uncooliness of the characters. But wasn't that the point? Ok, the kids didn't get it, and for this reason it was a failure. But the adults? Why are the adults criticizing it with the same arguments of the kids?

 

[damager]

It's no parody. It's a selfinject of unlikable activists and a attempt of normalization of homosexuality and transgenderism.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

another victory for I.N.C.E.L...

 

[damager]

Omg that's the best x post I have ever seen I think. Please stop working in games. And please kill yourself to send a message to other activist hacks, that ruin our hobby to promote their sick fetishes. Eat shit you talentless piece of shit! You never were a game designer!

 

[Dark Souls II]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

So is this one a troon or just a retarded ugly fat woman? With game developers you never really can tell

I'd dick down Amanda Keifer on the condition she leave the vidya industry and get laser tat removal.
