That right there is a story real games journalism should cover. Not just how this abomination was released but how the company culture changed to be like a college campus.
Concord - robots with pronouns

what about HYENAS? that game got cancelled before release despite it being SEGA's biggest budget endeavor ever ($100 million at least, and 6 years down the drain), reception has to be exceptionally fucking bad if you decide to bin it right before release.
at least there is an iota of interest in abortions such as Concord before they inevitably shut down, the fact it even got over 500 concurrent players on Steam with a $40 premium is insane when all the alternatives are F2P.

I feel like space bounty hunting is something of a solitary profession.
People like diverse body types for characters but they also really like appealing characters. People like Heavy because he's a strong fat Russian bear man with a funny accent and a chiseled face, he's also a badass.

Full retard regalia, pronoun pin included
Seems like she's a late 30s, >5ft tumblrina. According to her resume, she's been fucking up games since 2009. Her specialty appears to be making designs and being a "leader" (i.e. doing nothing/talking while other people work).

It also wrote a book full of frustrating grammar about a they/them bird creature's plight of being a big gay retard: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BKCX74FR
"Growt doesn’t remember who they used to be before the Pit. They were lucky to fly out, but Growt can’t fly away from what it left inside them.
When they inadvertently become entangled in the lives of the feather-winged, science-loving Prokkota — a people who are at war with Growt’s kind — Growt finds safety in the most unexpected of places, and finds family in the most unexpected of people.
But between staying hidden, unraveling the mystery of their former prison, and avoiding an ominous warrior, Growt’s biggest challenge comes from within. Escaping the Pit is one thing, but escaping its trauma is another thing entirely."

I don't think Hyenas was canned only because of the exceedingly bad feedback from the beta that was available shortly before the supposed launch, but also because it was being developed by Creative Assembly who, at the time, was working on Total War: Pharaoh, a full priced smaller scale Total War game (these are generally called Total War Saga games, but this was absent from Pharaoh's marketing. The planned DLC was also to include cosmetics) and just released an extremely unpopular DLC for their current flagship game Total War: Warhammer 3 (Shadows of Change). As TW:W3 was in a very bad spot at the time, the DLC being utter dogshit compounded the issues and not a lot of people bought the DLC. SEGA probably made the decision to can the game (and made some heads roll at CA, since they had a REALLY bad year) so the money fountains from CA are not threatened.
With CA's full focus, TW:W3 is in a much better spot now, the last DLC was really good and they even retroactively refunded every Pharaoh purchase (even those who only bought the standard editions), since they canned the planned paid DLC and just patched a bunch of the stuff in slowly for free. I hear TW: Pharaoh Dynasties is a really good time.
I guess the lesson here is that you should know your audience and don't be afraid to eat the losses if you know the game releasing has no chance of recouping the costs. Unfortunately, the above perfect storm pretty much has no chance of happening at Sony.
We know from the Insomniac leaks that Spiderman 2 cost $315m to make. I honestly don't think this game broke the $200m mark, but I guess more retarded things have happened in the past...

And they said nothing good would come out of Concord. Reading how a retard identifies as "Professor" already made my day.

I just can't understand the level of incompetence needed to waste 8 years of your life and 300 million to make such a turd of a game. I couldn't be this much of a fuckup even if I tried. Even driving a bunch of brand new ferraris against a wall wouldn't cost as much as this shitheap has.
Meanwhile SEGA makes a new Sonic game for the cost of chipotle meal and it sells 100x more than this.

Its notyourshield again, all this talk about minorities but when one of them dares to be more than background decoration they get told to go back to the cotton fields.

It's so sad to see an average chubby girl give up on trying to better herself and instead lean into the "i'll be ugly on purpose!" and pronoun bullshit.

Does anyone else find it strange that there haven't been more players during weekend?
I mean how many of those 600 peak players were doing it during office hours?

A lot of those people probably checked it out because "shiny new toy", discovered it was mediocre at absolute best and immediately dropped it.
All the discussion about it being completely dead already doesn't help either. Not much point playing a game that's probably going to be abandoned and/or taken offline within a year at most.

so basically she's an experienced Ex-Insomniac dev who started fucking up the company as early as Sunset Overdrive at the very least and her influence fucked over the company in the long run?

I could be wrong, but wasn't Battleborn by Randy Pitchford and co. a worse flop? Not that this one is far off, I'm still baffled that Sony signed off on charging $40 for a hero shooter in a market saturated by better and FREE competitors.

We're down to like 230 active players. At this point matchmaking outside of USA central time is going to be pretty much impossible.

I bet my left ball the exact same type of people are working on Overwatch and Valorant.
The only two reasons Overwatch has any white female characters are because they were already included back when the team behind it was competent, and because Mercy/Ashe skins are the only thing keeping it from bankruptcy. And they're all gay IIRC

Lol half the all time peak players are the devs themselves because they were forced to, and the testers because they were paid to. lmao even

Battleborn had more players in its all-time peak, and Rule 34 of it exists. (although Pitchfork tried to force push for it by promoting the R34Battleborn subreddit)
