It doesn't have to be overwatch. You fire up APEX legends, go through the roster, and tell me to my face that isn't somehow woke and diversified.

Were they trying to make art imitate life by deliberately making the Indian girl so ugly?

This is beyond that. They want characters to be ugly so that ugly women do not think there is anything wrong with them. The fatso are to remain fat and die before 40, the feminists are to shave their heads and not their armpits etc etc. They are not showing average women, rather far bellow average.
 
Concord characters are not only physicaly unappealing, their designs just refuse to inform you of what they do.
there's a difference between character and characteristics. the big burly dude is expected to be slow and able to tank a lot of damage, the nimble char looking like a runner is expected to go fast etc. you don't see many fat gold medalists, that's why people subconsciously notice the discrepancy. same for other aspects of "current year" characters. rule of cool where a 5 foot asian women throws around 7 ft bodybuilders like in an action movie only work so far, and you don't even get a cool character or moment anymore anyway. modern day writers have zero fucking clue about a resemblance of logic or internal consistency.

what @SSj_Ness is talking about is if you were a "gamer" or other nerd for a while, overwatch designs are the definition of bland and safe-horny. robot ninja, big dude knight, spunky tomboy, no-nonsense femme-fatale "villain", socially challenged nerd girl, run-of-the-mill soldier dude literally called soldier, and finally an edgelord who would've blamed a decade earlier for columbine. shit you've literally seen a dozens times before unless you're a casual normalfag soyfacing over MCU movies.

The only way they could seriously salvage Concord is by renaming it, and replacing or redesigning most of the characters. They'd have to also change the gameplay to be meaningfully different from other hero shooters to survive on the market.

Fundamentally, nothing about the game is good enough to keep it alive, even if you fixed the most offensive elements, because it's a saturated market. That's just my ideas if they were forced to do it for some reason. Cutting their losses ASAP like Hyenas did was the right move.

Battleborn came out right next to Overwatch, and everyone already knew back then that yeah, they wouldn't coexist. Why do corpos keep throwing their hat in the ring? Is making a stupid, gay hero shooter a rite of passage in the game development community, like heading a failed project at Google supposedly is?

Four hundred million. Fuck SIE.
the game is dead. even with a complete revamp no one gives a shit about hero shooters anymore, overwatch has sucked all the air out of the room and then as reward crapped all over your floor.
the biggest irony however is that they went with the absolute laziest, cheapest live service slop they could come up with. 5v5 team based pvp? in fucking 2024? even deadlock only got some hype because it's made by valve. blizzard couldn't even be arsed to add _some_ pve people have been literally begging forever for and was THE big sales pitch for people to shell out money again, and fucking sony doubles down on that?
just make a fucking warframe clone with waifus, how hard can it fucking be? not that hard now that korea beat you to it and the west isn't allowed to design attractive females anymore.

ironically, since you mentioned battleborn, the games could've easily co-existed since they cater to different audience besides the similarities in genre, it was more of a fps-moba. randy simply had to be randy again and go full retard, especially when it's a known secret old blizzard were outright cunts when it came to competition. like dude all you had to do was offer a solid option once the overwatch fatigue set in, not perform a fucking song about gamergate when people wanted to hear news about the game.

and the worst part? deadlock looks like fucking battleborn 2.0 in terms of gameplay and characters, but apparently it's ok when valve does it. or they were just smarter marketing it. if they put it on playstation I'm gonna laugh my ass off.

Even then we heard complains about the Tracer Butt Pose. Not everything has to be uber original or ultra-sexy. A great execution on already estalished and successful formulas with some polished, if somewhat unoriginal, character archetypes is fine every now and then. Original and good is a combination rarer than unicorns. Just take a good game when you see it. A sandwich made from a goblin shark might be original but it propably will not be appetizing.

Randy is an idiot. Battleborn was a first person MOBA (like Smite is an third person MOBA and LoL is an bird 's eye view MOBA). That should have been the competition, not OW. But Randy just had to market it as a hero shooter during the same period OW came out. Jesus.

Deadlock had 2 advantages Battleborn did not have: 1. It was released by VALVE whose reputation is almost perfect and their seal of approval carries more weight than Gearbox who screwed over SEGA with Aliens: Colonial Marines. 2. It went up against Concord while Battleborn went up against OW.

that's just blizztards. funny enough they were fine with some egyptian kween appropriating indigenous north-american culture.

if it would just be "now and then" it wouldn't feel bland and unoriginal. in the end it just a matter of perspective, but there's still plenty of room to go without literal stereotypes. just because blizzard put it in a successful box doesn't mean it's good, other games would get way more shit for it.

Farah is half-Egyptian half-Indigenous Canadian.

Again, original and good is rare. And stereotypes (and shorthand) is not a bad thing by itself. Just a tool.
 
In yet another one of Sony's never ending reign of poor choices, Dino Crisis was released on the PS4/5 today but Sony decided to lock the game behind the PS+ Premium paywall (which costs $159.99 a year) and the game doesn't even have any trophies :story: They also did the same thing to Resident Evil Director's Cut which was released two years ago and is still locked behind the paywall and never got a trophy patch.

if theres anyone who is behind the massive rise in PC Gaming over the past 5-6 years its Sony with their own poor choices, even Normalfags are getting into PC Gaming via prebuilts, people are waking up to Sony's Jewry, people dont like paid online play and rightfully so.

I think it’s pretty bold that they would do that to one of Capcom’s most popular games, behind Resident Evil and Okami. Having to hide games like that behind a paywall is very greed-like behavior for a console like the PS5 that has no real good games of merit.

PC gaming has been growing steadily in Japan as of late precisely because of how unappealing and restrictive home consoles have become. Sony in particular has pissed off a lot of Japanese developers because of their Western driven mandates.
 
PlayStation will be holding concerts of their various IP soundtracks:


Abbyzilla look like she's only there to take up the space where Concord would have been, had Concord not shit the bed as hard as it did.

Also, where is Spider-Man and Gran Turismo? Given how hard they push the Spider-Man games, and Gran Turismo stans love to suck on the game's music, those being missing are huge missed opportunities.

I can't even remember the last Sony game that actually had a memorable soundtrack... *sigh*

You had one fucking job. That's like holding a John WIlliams concert and only focusing on Star Wars.

It's gonna be a bunch of movie game music that's serviceable in the shitty games they make, but nothing good enough to warrant listening to on its own, unlike the classics.
 
Recently dug up my old PS3 to try something, but ended up deciding to play some old games. It really is the perfect testament to how far Playstation has sunk.

No fee to play online, custom themes, an actual web browser, just generally better for the consumer. Despite starting the "No Games" meme and rightly so, unlike the PS5 the PS3 actually had some games by the end of its life, and it wasn't just 300 different themed Uncharted-likes.

Playstation talks about celebrating their history and superficially acknowledges it, toys with backwards compatibility a little, but it seems like anything that isn't brand new is a huge taboo. Feels like they're desperate to push the newest games.
