Nobody at Sony had eyes.
I saw the poster without knowing anything about the game and thought it looked like bootleg shitty guardians of the galaxy.
Apparently it was even worse than my 0 expectations.
I’ve had a friend tell me that her stream group (and her) or whatever was happy to see these woke games die. I’m only looking at this superficially but what about this game is woke? I just thought it was shit.
I believe the game showed pronouns on the character select screen. That’s all it takes to make certain people mad, unfortunately.
LPT: I t’s usually a safe bet to ignore anyone deriding a game for its “wokeness,” their opinions are reactionary and not based in any reasonable sense of reality
Concord is such a terrible name it doesn’t grab attention at all. The game keep popping up on my feed and i just take a glance and move on. It’s Sony’s greatest blunder.
I would definitely pay for the game Concord, just for its brand.
If the sub title is Sony Flight Simulator
Hey, even if Concorde failed doesn’t mean it wasn’t the first commercial plane to break the sound barrier.
D…dad?
400 million and I never even heard of the game.
Just watched the gameplay trailer.
Immediately noticed it looks like there’s 10 heroes, and 3 naps…
I mean, it looks like fun, very overwatch esq
Pretty massive screw up from the marketing team involved. To try and sell a hero shooter for $40 upfront from an unknown dev studio in a crowded market of free-to-play hero shooters is pretty risky. Even Overwatch 2 saw the writing on the wall and went F2P.
…how does ANY game cost $400,000,000?
No, seriously: does that include an unlimited drugs and hookers for the c-levels budget or something?
the credits for concord list 2000 employees. It was also in development for 6 years (I would guess it probably suffered “development hell”)

Wasn’t GTA 5 like 100 millions? I mean it’s insane but in the ballpark.
265 million in 2013 money which is 358 million in 2024 money.
IIRC, it’s more like 250 million, but 250 million is still basically half of whatever this generic-ass live-service FPS game ended up costing, and it’s certainly not to the scope or scale of GTA5.
I feel like through could have come up with a copycat hero shooter for like 20 million tops.

The only way to really explain the cost
