Concord was in development for 8 years

[Yurinka]

The studio was founded in 2018, this is 6 years ago. I can understand that they would have worked on a prototype to secure money before founding the studio, but I assume they'd spend maybe around half a year on it, not two years.

I really doubt it costed $200m with 150 employees…

Yeah. AAA games like this one cost around a handful hundred millions or more because there's around a couple thousand people or more working on them, not 150.

• ~780 by VG Insights
• ~6.5 k by PlayTracker

That 780 copies sold estimation by VG insights LMAO, Back in 2000's performance like this would have had people hold press conferences and bow down and apologize to the consumers

Sony's Halo infinite. Actually way worse. Halo infinite was an underwhelming 7/10 game. This is downright terrible.

Between this and TLOU2 factions Sony lost the chance to develop at least 3 or 4 AAA/AA games that would have been great aditions to the catalogue.

Everyone was worried about the legacy PC ports because their favourite exclusives couldn't be weaponized anymore in a platform war. But this was always the greater concern. You had prime Shaquille o Neal asked him to play PG instead of center...

It shows 2850 in VG Insights to me (and 7k for PlayTracker).
That is better than Beta for only Deluxe Editions yet.

Edit - Ohhh you just copied from SteamDB and didn't check if the date was updated lol

BTW some Steam users are going crazy due the very positive reviews:

Therapy session for the ppl that bought it. :: Concord™ General Discussions

let me start by asking, is this so called modern audience in the room wtih us right now?

Seems like it is not just Steam users

Shaq was asked to "play" synchronized swimming, instead of basketball.

I posted what the data was at the time of my post but jumping from 700 to 2850 is not some cause to celebrate, it has dropped to 406 on top sellers and is 72nd on the US PS store. Those steam posts you mention are bait posts to farm steam points from the suckers, the game has continuously dropped ranks since early access launch.

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

Honestly, if they decided to change characters into hot chicks it would be such an hilarious 360 it would work as a marketing maneuver

Frankly they can keep their alien teletubbies in the game, they add 1 or 2 characters with sex appeal the gooners will forgive and forget and do the marketing for them, for all the hate gooners get they are the most dedicated fanbase in gaming if you get them on your side

If the studio is only 6 years old how could the game been in development 8 years?

Edit - Sorry 600... I can't keep up refreshing.

But that shows how dumb was to come here to post 186 lol

Inzoi Character studio has 12k people LMAO

 

[Gods&Monsters]

A small team was brainstorming and thinking about it before launching their studio? If they were working at Bungie, they could do it after hours? It's not that hard to believe.

Holy Poggers!!! The game has a peak of 186 on steam after launch just now ....... than means less than 500 people bought the early access edition Lmo

The laughing threads are already starting to pop up. The PC version should have been cancelled just to save them from this embarrassment
