Concord kicks the Dustbin just 2 weeks after release

(Late but here we go)

In what has to be record breaking first of what has to be the fastest a live service game has released and shut down. Sony’s failed Overwatch-clone hero shooter Concord has (long since) kicked the bucket with a whopping record of a mere 14 days (That’s 2 weeks or 336 hours, hell I have a longe playtime on SV and Animal Crossing logged than that. Not to mention some other people who have up to 1000+ hours on many other titles.)

While I myself was not actively following the whole Concord (or Conchord as some people have taken to calling it) pre-release controversies and all, there were several factors on why this title was DOA to begin with:

Poor marketing on Sony’s behalf. Why I’m I not surprised, I didn’t hear literal shart about this title until a few days before it even released.

Characters were apparently rather generic and not memorable. Always a big issue with games

And most importantly over all, it being a hero shooter/FPS in general. Like do you know how oversaturated that market is? Like we get at least 10 of these games every year that just die months later.

But yeah, in a year where many flops have dropped I’m not very surprised at this point.

200 Word RPGs 2024

Each November, some people try to write a novel. Others would prefer to do as little writing as possible. For those who wish to challenge their ability to not write, we offer this alternative: producing a complete, playable roleplaying game in two hundred words or fewer.

This is the submission thread for the 2024 event, running from November 1st, 2024 through November 30th, 2024. Submission guidelines can be found in this blog's pinned post, here.

funny how celebrities will raise $26M for a fashion institute but can't be bothered to mobilise even a fraction of that energy and money to help the people being tortured and killed in an unapologetic genocide as we speak. love that for society. what a moment for The Culture.
