So it's worse than we thought for Sony.
Apparently they're not just refunding the end purchasers, they're mainly refunding the global distributors and merchants through them.
Every unsold copy ordered in the supply chain will allegedly be fully reimbursed.

TL;DR: They're not refunding for the goodwill of gamers, it's to maintain future confidence in their commercial purchasers that Sony will ship a saleable product.

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.

Wait until Fairgame$ people. 😁
And I'm not going to spoil it, but Sony seems to have made a few other bad development decisions around the same time and those projects are obviously not going to succeed.
If I were senior management, I'd be calling in the lead of EVERY development studio to explain again, in autistic detail, what they're making. Because some of them are also making commiefornian ****.

Just LOL.

"No games to buy", she assumes that there are only modern AAA ESG bigcorpo unoptized bugfest made by incompetent diversity hires exists. Only in steam, I have 311 games in my wishlist. ZERO of them have pronouns in characters. I can play old games and indies. And I play for fun, this frankfurt infected games are not fun, are frustrating.

I play video games to escape the hellhole which the equality cultism created IRL. If video games are a extension of everything that sucks in the real world, why even play them?

If by that she means that we will no longer be able to get videogames from her and those like her, then I'm all for it.

Even if it were true, her terms are acceptable. If I have to choose between their degenerate no talent garbage or no new games at all? Well, I have decades in backlog, no problem.

The problem with that line of thinking is that Concord is actually a fairly good game (as far as I was told, I have not followed Concord at all) but the DEI **** makes it unbearable. So we have here good games being corrupted into unplayability through this woke garbage, which is much worse than woke games going broke.
They will absolutely use their mental diarrhea to snipe down good games.

Interesting, from what I have heard (watched a review on it), the game is horrible as a game itself and the woke crap just exemplifies that.

Honestly though, the industry even without woke is in bad shape and needs to collapse (years of console/big corp/marketing style focus). All interest from big money needs to collapse and then... you will eventually see only the people who love games willing to put the time and effort into it.

Also realize a large problem with gaming are the people playing them. I know that sounds odd, but you have a massive amount of players who are just ******** "muh entertainment" types who demand stuff that completely destroys a game. The cattle need to move off to the next fad so gaming can go back to a niche genre.

I don't know if gaming can have the corporatism removed without having to revert back into a "niche", because I genuinely believe that good games that were made by passionate devs should be enjoyed by as many people as possible.

I think the new term for this is "Jester Farming".

But in the event that it's serious, I legit wonder how can a human brain work in such a way without short-circuiting itself.

They never wanted equality, it's all about equity these are communists.
Equity is the 'progressive' step from Civil Rights equality. Both are wrong, and fundamentally based on lies, self-destructive sentiments of self-loathing, and ideals which prioritise extremely disparate outsiders over kin.
For the generic Leftist, equality doesn't provide the results they expect, with the beliefs they hold, so they have to come up with rationale for why that's the case. It can't be that racists & nazis are right, so it must be an orchestrated conspiracy by White people to create inequality! It's only fair to punish one to uplift the other.

For the more autonomous pushing these directives, I'm sure they realise the forms of humiliation they force on the White population, for the sake of it, and the treasonous, genocidal acts they are concealing under a guise of 'philanthropic duty.'

Oh yeah, this guy is a ******* idiot.

For those who don't know much about Eastern European history, this so-called "communist mind" that was forced into Romania eventually gave rise to the horrible [Decree 770] that began to be enforced in October 1966.

This degree forbade contraception for women under 40 with fewer than four children, the reasoning given was that "the fetuses were property of the state" and anyone who didn't wanted to have more kids was considered a "national traitor". And just like anyone with a working brain would've foreseen, this led to waves of unwanted children being dropped into state orphanages were they suffered constitutional neglect, sexual abuse, lack of adequate food and proper clothing, and many even got AIDS because of indiscriminate injections with filthy medical equipment.

In the off-chance that this guy is not a troll, then we are seeing at another victim of libtard brainwashing.

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.

This is the 80's programming result (ie "strong single mother"), the kid needed the **** "literally" kicked out of him, all entertainment removed, and put on work detail 24/7.

The director is 'steping down'.

https://gamerant.com/concord-director-s ... os-report/
Concord’s director Ryan Ellis has recently told the staff at Firewalk Studios that he would step down into a support role at the company, according to reports. Concord has been a big disappointment for Sony and Firewalk Studios, and it seems that its failure has impacted the company’s upper management.

If it's an American company in a blue state then they likely have DEI protection. Same problem where I work. HR is now 90% black women, with 1 jew and 1 black man. They work at less than a crawl and hire the worst applicants, they are protected by the state and the normie mind virus.

Allegedly Sony spent 400$ mln on this.

https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2024/09 ... laystation
We promise we’re not trying to rub it in, but Concord is such a historic flop that some of these stories simply can’t be overlooked. Speaking on the latest episode of Sacred Symbols, veteran ex-IGN reporter Colin Moriarty said he’d spoken to a developer on the first-person shooter, and claims the game cost approximately $400 million, making it the most expensive PlayStation first-party project ever. That’s an astounding, bordering on unbelievable, number if accurate.

I would assume that it's true since from what we have seen so far with the Concord-themed controllers and the cinematic episode that is scheduled to come out, Sony was genuinely expecting this game to become the new "face" of their latest PlayStation console which must likely became super overpriced in an attempt to compensate for the massive loss that Concord became. lmfao

Corporate game directors do not have full freedom. They do what the board approves and tells them to do. I remember when the Diablo 3 game director complained to a Blizzard higger up that he was harrassed by players. The higher up then said the director wasnt the one to blame but he was.
