Concord was in development for 8 years
- Thread starter John Elden Ring
- Start date
I love the passion. That is what it is all about, even if the game isn't for you. They did it FOR you, as well as themselves.
The game didn't do anything for me in the beta. But, I agree, I would never have known it was a beta.
Hope it works out for them but I doubt it. Having a GaaS being worked on for 8 years is not sustainable. Major risk and most likely to flop, compared to a SP experience that will probably earn Sony more.
I am optimistic for them. When they are strapped in for years to come, I feel like they will look at feedback and give out plenty of content. They knew they were entering a market dominated by the same 3 or 4 players.
Imagine wasting 8 years of your life on a guaranteed flop because the character designer decided he wanted Antifa approved character designs.
The quality is there and the beta is testament of the dedication of the devs. Looking forward to giving my support to a well valued and polished product this weekend
They can still fix this because underneath all the garbage there is a decent game here -
1. Attract the gooners/coomers, throw them a bone these people spend the most in games, You want to have these people in your corner if you want high revenues.
2. Lower the TTK and make movement faster to at least attract some of shooter crowd.
3. Don't antagonize your male gamer consumer base by insulting them (they hate being lectured to the most) and especially stop posting your world views on twitter the normies dont give 2 shits about palestine, ukraine etc etc.
4. Stop hiring your community managers from the reddit mod/ journalist talent pool
5. Make cool skins and a ranked mode where getting good actually has great rewards
6. And lastly fucking have better hiring standards at the director and team lead level roles

That is what majority of the shooter crowd wants, You make products to cater to the consumers otherwise you land up on 258 on the sales rankings"Lower the TTK" - so basically ruin the game
They don't seem to care if it flops, so none of those things will happen.
The grind fest F2P game with invasive microtransactions 'The First Descendant' is still surviving on Steam because of the character design and no DEI. Smart studio that knows how to make money in today's gooner world.

This is so sad. It will go down in history as one of the biggest flops for PS Studios and a laughingstock for years to come. I feel for these devs 
Who is to blame? I'm not sure. The game is good but it's not resonating with the public.

Ultimately the fault lies with Sony and FireWalk... Absolutely terrible debut and they went about making a first impression the worst way. The marketing at first was honestly the worst I've ever seen for a PS game.This is so sad. It will go down in history as one of the biggest flops for PS Studios and a laughingstock for years to come.

It shows. No PvP game has ever launched with such quality and attention to detail. All I ask is that Firewalk sticks around for another game after this, they are immensely talented and it's easy to see why Sony bought them.
The first impression was so bad, people don't even want to try it 5 minutes for free. They just post memes and laugh at the binary robot.

I'll take Red Flag for 400 Alex.
