Watching this after shut down announced, i feel like they were cooking something else for concord, but when Sony came in, they turn all the ideas to their requirement. This whole game, gameplay and presentation always feels like meant to be a Co-Op experience, like the 5 main character they revealed in State of Play. 5v5 maybe decision made later. The weekly cutscenes was the original idea from early development. We may tell all the negativity, but still Video game developing is hard. Sad to see wasted potential of the whole team.
Congratulations on your quick shutdown of the game! Your game will be a classic case study of absolute failures of system project development and management for years to come. You earned this!
That actually takes more effort than people realize. Think about the people waking up early each day to be at work for this project. The meetings, the late nights, missed social outtings, and personal human development opportunities. Someone could have met the love of their life if they just took a weekend off. Instead, 8 long years pass to bring them to this moment. The poignant loss in missed opportunities for success doing... ANYTHING else is beautiful. I'm really curious if devs would even put this project in their portfolio. The art is terrible, the management was terrible, the gameplay is lackluster. There is nothing redeeming about it to salvage. It's just a black hole of effort. I'd be embarrassed to show off any part of this to potential employers personally.
@@alexdavila1356It would already be hard to mess up if they worked 5 hours a day (with weekends off) I can't possibly imagine a world where these "professionals" work overtime in the late night and still manage to be this incompetent.
"We're taking a different approach to character selection. We designed characters that absolutely no one wants to play as and look like your everyday patrons of a Seattle Starbucks."
It's sad that you find it hilarious. This is a project that many people spent some of their limited time on this earth to create. You won't understand if you have never created something yourself, but there's a satisfaction in seeing your efforts translate into something that many will experience and that may outlive you. Someone wrote the music, voice actors did their best to record lines, time was spent coding and programming, polishing, testing, bug-fixing... this game, like most games of this scale, are only possible because a huge number of people contributed to them with their work, pooling their time and effort. It is sad when so many people do their best and don't get the result they wanted. It's not hilarious.
@real100talk5 I don't even think it was that, the game was just straight up generic, boring, and unappealing. I'm surprised it even sold more than 100 copies, like look at the game and tell me if any of the character designs look unique or interesting. It looks passionless and devoid of any creative soul.
Concord Adventure was like the lifecycle of a cicada. It was in production for 8 years, only to emerge for a week, be obnoxious and loud, and then disappear as if it had never existed.
Sony preferred to invest millions in this game doomed to failure rather than port Bloodborne to PC/PS5, which would certainly sell many copies. Poor decision making
@@phoenixwhiler943 Yes! But my point is: why not invest more in games that the fan base is asking to play? I understand that live service games make a lot of money in the long term and that is Sony's goal, but the PlayStation player base for the most part still prefers single player IPs, they shouldn't let these games be forgotten. If they want to focus on live service, at least make a game that people want to play, like helldivers 2
Hilarious enough, this game probably wont even crack Redfalls player count peak on Steam😭. Redfall was bad,but hilariously bad. This game is just...mediocre looking.
@@theoathman8188The Guy the Dev replied to was realy nice to him without any Ironie or sarcasm and then the Dev goes crazy and calls everyone "talentless Freaks". So of course People embrace it and laugh at it, because the "talentless Freaks" had the most Money and showed it to them by not buying it and buying and/or playing Wukong or Astrobot or BG3 Patch 7 while Concord get's shut down. 😂
Because this game is really trying to convince people but it's a failure. Astro Bot is hype naturally. It doesn't look to have cringe DEI pushed narratives.
@@robertlawrence9000not to mention because over watch clones are basically the next big thing in gaming (take a look at Marvel Rivals for example) they want to market it more than a single player platformer, which, ironically, Astro bot already has a greater reputation than concord
@@gojiraprime7461 I'm not sure if they did or not, but from thee look of it, it's certainly implied, and "modern audience" is just code for "We're making this game for activists on social media and journos with more pronouns than personality traits."
A textbook example of how to spend massive amounts of time and money to create something that nobody wants to play. Let this be a lesson: in 2024, it’s crystal clear that most players are done paying for games made by companies that seem to hate their audience.
As a complete outsider to all of this I would genuinely like to hear whether any of these devs felt like they were under pressure to build something they didn’t want, or feel like they had blinders on, or genuinely feel like they blinded themselves to the market. Who are the leaders that pressured this project into being this disastrous?
Blackrock and vanguard fund projects like this when they adhere to DEI policies, so the more transgenders, minorities etc. The higher their budget. Combine this with a project developer who openly dislikes guns and gamers, and this is what we got.
@ Titanic was a fully functioning ship that sank because of an accident. I was referring to the Vasa ship that sank in the harbor it was constructed in. It sank because the king was too ambitious and blind to its beauty. The focus of making the ship more grand made the overall design faulty and wasn’t sea worthy, hence why it sank right after leaving port.
Here after the studio shutdown, Concord truly is the Titanic of the games: High expectatives, massive disaster that drag its creators with it in some way or another.
I’m surprised Sony/Playstation didn’t just quietly delete this video. They spent $0.5 billion ($400 million game dev cost plus buying Firewalk Studios) to make history, “most epic game crash of all time”.
“Our quarter 3 financial results aren’t up to our expectations, Concord didn’t do as well as we thought it would even though everyone has been telling us they don’t want it for 2 years”
I even suggested them, several months ago, in their own channel to replace the characters for ATTRACTIVE ONES, that could salvaged something of this thing... They deleted my post.
They don't all have to be attractive, but they do need to be interesting. These characters are utterly generic, like they were put together from assets, not actually designed and carefully crafted, just slapped together with little thought. Street Fighter 2 is the greatest example of superb character design; every character is distinctive and colourful. That's what they should have aimed for.
Im a ps5 gamer that knew next to nothing about this game or why it failed. After seeing this one video i can already tell why it failed. Yet another lesson. Get woke go broke.
"The possibility space of what Concord will become is super exciting" True and you aleady achieved it. #1 Slop Checkbox Enjoyer Most Expensive Game Failure Shortest Triple A Shutdown The Rule 34 Breaker Richest Activist Game Studio The "Talentless Freaks" Quoter And many more.
