Unbelievable. I watched the whole video just to educate myself. I know the state of the video game industry is in bad shape overall, but wow. We’re downright in regression there. To be honest, I feel that this game even if it was good, would still not bring a lot of folks. 40 dollars to play this game was an insane idea, and the characters look absolutely ridiculous. Who wants to play characters with bad designs, even with first person view ? Not many, I'd guess.

Who wants to play characters with bad designs, even with first person view ? Not many, I'd guess. I have another theory of why this is happening: Empathy vs. Egotism. Developers in the past just wanted to make something high quality with universal appeal that can be enjoyed for years if not decades. If they screw up, they will rarely go on social media to insult their critics and audience. Developers now are all about their egotistical self-expression: “How does this represent me?” or “How does this represent my clique?” or “How do I make this subversive to own those bad people I fight on Twitter?” If there’s any criticism, no matter how constructive, it gets labeled as hate. If their game tanks, they will insult gamers as vile for not understanding their genius. This pattern has repeated itself countless times and it’s not just limited to games, Film and TV shows especially have this problem.

Jerel of Sungrand Studios gives an insightful analysis on the shortcomings of Concord's character designs like character theme, color theory and visual awareness vs it's peer Overwatch.

PS5, PC Shooter Concord Dead on Arrival, Is Being Taken Offline This Week as Dev 'Explores Options' www.pushsquare.com/news/2024/09/ps5-pc-shooter-concord-dead-on-arrival-is-being-taken-offline-this-week-as-dev-explores-optionsIs this the biggest failure in modern gaming history? I guess that's what happens when companies sa yyou'll pa yus bu town nothing. The problem is that quote is cherry picked out of the interview. They were talking about how things like Ubisoft+ and Netflix work. Not that you buy a game and don't own it. It’s part of a deeper problem in the tech/entertainment industries where the the prevailing philosophy is they don’t want us owning products and instead want us to be shackled with subscription services IE: You will own nothing and be happy.

PS4 chads rise up!
But seriously, what exactly is the purpose of Sony/PlayStation this console generation? Shutting down Japanese Studios to throw money at out-of-touch Western developers? Announcing another remake for a beloved series? Ruining good things like HD2?

But seriously, what exactly is the purpose of Sony/PlayStation this console generation? Shutting down Japanese Studios to throw money at out-of-touch Western developers? Announcing another remake for a beloved series? Ruining good things like HD2? I honestly think Sony did what Microsoft did with the XB1 this generation. They chased trends if it would be the PSVR2 chasing VR or nostalgia with remakes and remasters. Any attempt to expand was chasing prior success and not looking to the future with acquisitions like Bungie and Firewalk. Then you have blunders by what feels like a trick to try and convert PC players over to the PS platform with the comments about delaying the release of a sequel to a game that did well on the PC to lure players to the PS or the whole Helldivers 2 incident after release cramming in PSN. Now Sony even blocks access to all countries that cannot signup for PSN giving the impression all games they release might have a PSN requirement post-release. If Microsoft made that many missteps in a single year they would be targeted repeatedly about how out of touch Microsoft is, but Sony seems to get away with it. For me it comes across as Sony is having problems and they are desperate to try and find a way out of whatever corner they are backed into.

That has to be a record for fastest shutdown in a Live Service game. It's probably the second fastest. The fastest shutdown that I know of is The Culling 2 which lasted 8 days. Even IGN gave it 2/10.
Both of these games share a similar cause of their failures: chasing live service trends. Concord chased the hero shooter, while The Culling 2 chased the battle royale.

A rather sober look at PlayStation as a whole: Reaction: PlayStation Needs to Take a Long, Hard Look at Itself www.pushsquare.com/features/reaction-playstation-needs-to-take-a-long-hard-look-at-itselfTo gleam from this: -This is Hermen Hulst’s nuclear screwup which doesn’t bode well for his leadership. -PlayStation doubled down on Concord and didn’t pickup on the red flags. How the hell did PlayStation executives look at the characters and think “Yeah, players will want to play as these zany folks” instead of vomiting uncontrollably? My theory is California’s entertainment sector has made them out of touch with what people want; the Hollywood curse. -Concord’s impressive destruction means Fairgame$ is also DOA, but then again it looked awful from the trailer. It could be a good tax write off like Hyenas. -PlayStation has been permanently tainted by this catastrophic situation and everyone of their MP games past this date will be compared to Concord. -Firewalk will close down in the near future, good riddance. -PlayStation needs something to plug the holes on in their sinking ship because they are stuck with overly expensive single player games and self-destructive GaaS titles. If only there was a wide array of AA games and developers who be more than happy to get a bit of official support from Sony to release their products on PSN. -Playstation also made the sin of trying to force the players to dance to their tune instead of appealing to them.

While I agree, this statement is coming from Sony as a whole and not just the PlayStation division, so it also includes the brain trust that decided to go for a Spider-Man villains series of movies. More than likely it was some kind of statement that they wanted investors to see with how successful recent things have been.

They lack original IPs even though they have a plethora of old IPs that they can revive. You know? LIKE KILLZONE! Seesh even Microsoft got this right by making a new game of Gears of War. Sony has their heads firmly in the sand.
