Eight years and $100 million of development and it's getting shut down after less than two weeks.

Do you think, perchance, gamers don't want to play as characters who look like this?

The Acolyte, cancelled after one season.

Borderlands, one of the biggest bombs in movie history.

And now Concord. Sony is refunding everyone.

THERE IS NO AUDIENCE FOR THIS STUFF!!! FIGURE IT OUT!!!

On Quora, it said that less than a thousand people signed up for Concord, even though development costs were about $250 million.

It’s a bloodbath.

“Eight years and $100 million of development and it’s getting shut down after less than two weeks.”

Well it’s like a wise man once said: “Everything woke turns to s***.”

Even without the wokeism, I have to be honest, as an old-school gamer, this thing mostly flew under my radar. Not my cup of tea.

Probably will do allot better than their next new offering, “ Pin The Pronoun On The Snowflake.”

Waiting for Dustborn to get dustbinned, and Star Wars Outlaws to spend more money to fix the previous team’s screw ups.
It’s like the Outlaws developer hired the Mass Effect Andromeda animation team and the AI team from Aliens Colonial Marines.
But the absolute cherry on top is that they marketed all three games as being made for the modern audience.
The same modern audience that didn’t come out for these games and the TV shows made for them.
