Moral of the story, do not let mentally ill liberal women anywhere near a 250 million dollar project.

You may as well not bother replying to my posts if it's to argue anything except concrete facts or your personal opinion. I still probably won't see it.
Reject your retarded-wing political programming and learn to think.

SEGA pulled the plug on a similar disaster, Hyenas, prior to it's release and it still resulted in the firing of it's entire development team I believe.
Fittingly enough Hyenas looks like it could have been made by the devs of Concord.

Ok, I had a thought for something that will probably take off like fire concerning this... (for those who love to screw around doing crap like this, I don't... just an idea)

Take the old song "Convoy", then apply the song (modified of course to lyrics making fun of Concord, AI should make this easier) then apply the song to some videos of all the ridiculous crap of the game. Set it loose and watch it explode!

Sadly, this game probably isn't even the most refunded. Elden Ring would be higher.

I have been learning more and more about how much of a disaster this game is compared to ET for Atari. The ET game that caused the gaming crash of the 1980's still managed to sell 1 million copies. The game was basically developed by one guy in the span of a year and on the budget of a potato. Concord spent 8 years in development, had hundreds of people working on it with many of them being industry veterans, had a estimated cost of half a billion dollars and the game couldn't sell 50k copies. Words can not express what a colossal **** up this is. The fact that Sony had faith in this title just blows my mind.
It's time for Sony to get purged out of the games business and get back to making TVs for boomers.

I also hope they continue posting all their whining "emotional breakdowns" walls of text everywhere since it's a good confirmation that our efforts aren't in vain. What do they call it? "Emboldening the chuds"? lol

For those that don't know Amanda Kiefer is a concept artist from Seattle (because all these female devs are from Seattle or Portland). I checked her fan art and concept art on her Instagram. It isn't very good although her drawings of her cats are actually quite nice and she does have a talent for drawing animals, landscapes and still life. However, she isn't a great concept artist which is the problem. I see it all the time with young artists here. You have these young artists who have a talent for painting and drawing certain things and they get it in their head that they are the next Rembrandt. They then apply for jobs with these companies like Sony which I can understand. Art pays for **** and getting a job with a company like Sony that pays in the six figures is greatly appealing. But they don't have the talent or understanding on what makes a character appealing to a gamer. Doesn't help that many of these artist aren't gamers either. These artist would be better off working for a small local art studio and selling art of animals and landscapes to tourists and boomers. Not working for a game studio and making concept art for a 200 million dollar project.

Fleekazoid sending his final regards for Concord.

We Hardly Knew Ye ( literally only two weeks and Sony threw the game to the trash heap)

I miss the days when most of the people making games were gaming fans themselves. I get tired of hearing developers who don't give a **** about games telling me what is good and bad about games. It is like having a florist give advice on vehicle maintenance.

Now that's just pure ********. Both Infamous and Prototype are super underrated IPs that deserve a comeback, but seeing how the game developing landscape is right now, I think it's better we wait for the second gaming crash before either of these IPs sees the light of day again.

Marxists killed Prototype by sabotaging every plot thread the first game was setting up, just so they could shove a ****** protagonist in everyone's face.

Mercer went from being willing to die to save the city, to a ******** murderhobo, and they dropped the PARIAH thing entirely.

And if you don't believe me, the writer of Prototype 2 went on to write the plot of Mafia 3.

Italian Mafia tends to only accept people of Italian ancestry in their "family", If you search photos of every famous Italian Mafia family, you will find only Italian dudes everywhere. A non Italian can work for them, help here and there, but will never be part of family. What is next? Making a game based on Haiti criminal gangs and having only Danish people there?

Fair enough but for the subject matter they were tacking I was expecting dustborn levels of writing but was shocked in how well it was handled.

I finished Mafia 3 and from my recollection, you're dismantling a criminal organization and building your own not bound by shared Italian heritage. So, the ****** protag never actually gets accepted into the Family. It's in the same universe the first two Mafia games are set in, thus the title.

I feel kinda bad though.. the mom starts off so patient, her son clearly is disabled and she's doing her best to guide him towards normal behavior and hes resisting because he's clearly disabled. It's rough. Hits in the feels.
