Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Wrong time, 5 years too late
Wrong price, $40 too much
High friction, PSN account required
Nothing new, no new mechanic or feature or playstyle....
From all accounts the game is fine, but nothing makes it stand out enough, against ANY OF THE FREE GAMES: overwatch, planetside, warframe, halo infiniate, tf2!, apex, finals, destiny2, pubg, valorant, cs (not really hero, but close enough), cod warzone, fortnight, and deadlock...
So you have 6 buddies want to play a game... which one are you going to pick?
Boo hoo! Let me play a sad song on the worlds smallest violin 🤏
I don't think anybody is upset about Concord failing. At all. I think there are people who are genuinely sad for all of the workers of Concord, in the games industry having a good game on your resume is important. There's probably more than a few completely new employees, first job out of school, spent 7 years, and now they have nothing to show for it. It's not great
So I think we can be empathetic to the people who wasted their lives on this poorly concepted project.
But I haven't seen a single Concord fan out there, I don't see anybody arguing that we should be playing it, nobody's defending it. Hell even Sony is just cutting their losses, they didn't do any real advertising, just slipped it out there
