Sony's New Game Concord Is Now Offline After Just Over A Week

This is so funny. I can't stop laughing lol... for all the talks of XBOX at least they can say that all of their games did better than Sony

"This is a shocking turn of events, as few could have predicted Sony would end sales and shut the servers down for Concord so quickly"

It's true that a mere two weeks is all it took, still, between the wokeness and the paying for a live service game -- and the fact that it was a live service game in the first place -- lots of us saw this coming.

at least they only have ~25k players to figure out how to better reach, rather than millions

Sony has really bad leadership and has since someone said

"Cancel making PS3's backwards compatable w/ PS2"

~Selling old games is a ugly practice..

~Say the PS5 Pro had a whole new chipset that made it PS2 or PS3 bacwards compat w/ old discs= it would print money..

We are in some greedy azz times.

This shall be a lesson for Sony on where they doing wrong since Playstation 2-era.

I think I watched in a documentary that before Sony released Playstation 1, they researched video game industry properly and decided "little kids play Nintendo, Sega video game consoles were successful because they targetted teen and adults by opposing Nintendo's vision and why Sega failed in video game industry is just because they cannot relate to current gamers anymore so we should relate to current gamers and stay away from targeting little kids". Since this wisdom, especially after Playstation 2-era Sony failed to relate to current gamers by releasing interactive story BS, filling Sony games with tones of elements not related of any interest of gamers and most importantly, their video games started to be toooooo childish.

Sony failed to research how current video game industry is. Video games about choosing a character and battling in arena are mostly free to play anymore even when they are video games not limited to little kids. But Concord targets kids under 6 years old but the game is not free to play so how these kids would be able to play this game? Why a person would pay $40 to your game when there are tones of F2P game like that? A person older than 10 wouldn't wanna play this game, especially people who work but people who work can easily pay that much money but most importantly they wouldn't even give $5 for this game for how waste of time it's.

Free to play games require making money for server costs and all but they are smart to sell items that interest kids that can buy stuff with their pocket money. $40 is even too much of a pocket money in USA, but in rest of the world that's other than countries that use euros it's so much the kid would probably have to save that much money for a few years if the kid has the patient for it, but I doubt a kid would think this game deserves that much money and time anymore. Video game companies ignores world anymore as Steam even removed regional pricing, so they only play ball between dollar and euro, ignoring rest of the currencies and murdering video game industry against themselves. For that much money I would expect them to offer tones of universe of gameplay that transcents video game industry by offering something refreshing like what Team Fortress 2 managed to do. They released trivial ordinary game like Concord and did they release expect people to even waste their time on it when people are mortal ayy lmao. I can pay 2 months worth of bills and 2/8 of 1 month of rent here with $40 lmao.

Being an adult is enough to realistically guess why a game like Concord would fail hard even before the game processed to production from design phase but I guess Sony is run by bunch of kids who have no idea what's a video game anymore. Their fate will be even way worse that Sega, Sony will stop producing video game consoles as they lack the vision to develop a decent playable game anymore since Playstation 2 era. Sayonara, Sony. Go produce some mp3 players and advertise them in any movie you can lmao. I'll almost feel sorry for Sony shills who begged on social media around to make people play this game lmao.

Hope Sony stops with these online service games.

Good. Another game made by greedy company with micro-transaction in center of all just to milk money from gamers. Silly business practices.
