Was it even shit or just poorly marketed while also being just another copycat in a sea of copycats trying to be the next big thing? I didn’t hear a single thing about this game until it came out, and not one thing I have heard was about the game itself, just how it basically was DOA and had less than 1000 players day 1.
It depends on who you ask. Some will say that it’s an uninspired game with outdated and recycled mechanics that nobody wanted in 2024. Others have a much weirder take, and blame the game’s failure on it being “woke”.
I think the real issue is that people are just tired of hero shooters, and Concord brought nothing new to the table for the genre.
Not sure on the reason for the downvotes here. My understanding is they marketed it very poorly and they brought a hero shooter to a saturated market without adding anything new
Nothing obvious; no game breaking bugs or unplayability. Just too little, too late. If it came out 5 years ago, it would have a chance, but that space is too crowded now with F2P offerings to tolerate a bland entry with high upfront cost. It sounds like they’ll retool it into F2P, hopefully add something unique, and relaunch.
I read its characters got woke designs and it cast a bad reputation on the game, like it was a game made for DEI pandering.
But that’s just part of it. I guess it’s the Live Service Gaming fatigue, and this game didn’t bring anything new to the table to set it apart from Overwatch.
So why was it shit?

I didn’t hear a single thing about this game until literally right now.

I didn’t play it, but who did?
It was generic and sterilized apparently. It ran fine, had no mtx, but had a 40 dollar price tag, had no big issues.
It just has no hook, no gimmick or anything. It was just boring.
