    A lot of shit games still sell millions on the back of marketing, so for a game to sell as little as concord, it had to be a whole new level of shit along with shitty marketing.

      That’s the thing. They sell it due to marketing. Concord had virtually no marketing whatsoever.

      So Sony came up with $40 game that failed to be as good and enjoying as mediocre f2p ones, supported it with zero marketing and expected profits somehow. Genius.

        A good game will sell itself though. How they spent 8 years on it, I don’t know.

          Good game, yes. Concord was not one of those. It was mediocre, nothing special, definitely not a game people would pay 40 for.
