Another game terrorized to death by anti-ESG hysteria

[chancan]

I wish people would stop kicking games down before they've even released, so said games could have an actual chance. Studios shut down because of this. People lose their jobs over this. It's not funny.

In the video game industry the devs lose their jobs in "layoffs" regardless of profits. Why did I put layoffs in quotes? Because if you lay someone off, you don't have to pay them severance. Even if Concord was a huge success, let's face it, it's 8 years too late for that... but for the sake of argument, let's say it was successful. Devs still would lose their jobs so Sony can look at their investors and say, "We continued the ever rising profits you wanted!"

One of them is more blatant. Also the other one is already established, well-performing solid game. Look at the hero roster of both games. Then compare them. OW has better designs.

I play both Concord and Overwatch 2. Concord also performs well. This so-called agenda is just pronouns listed when you select a character. It's not a big deal.

You know there's already a couple of performance benchmarks out there, right? The game performs terribly. 1080p medium running 4060 with 12400f showing 90 avg FPS. That's terrible for e-sports shooter. Should be easily over 200.

On Overwatch, with the same setup but 1080p ULTRA, avg FPS is around 230.

Hey they got paid 8 years to create that disaster that is more than enough.

Modern audience doesn't exist, same with female sport leagues' audience.

This game was made for the modern audience, where are they? There cant be only 600 of them, right? You can`t make a woke game expecting to make a profit. Also the devs hate white, so why should one support racists?

[Sunsetter]

Yeah, well, we'd like games to stop pushing this drivel, but we cant all get what we want...
As for the jobs, if the developers themselves dont care if they lose their jobs, why should we?

that's one way to look at it, Another way might be this is a supply for a demand that didn't exist.

wise words indeed, coming out from a person who didn't even buy the game.
Nice try tho, enjoy the flop

[Vigilence]

It doesn't matter if the audience this game was made for are the ones purchasing the game.

Since the game was catered and championed to only a single type of minority audience they will be the ones to make this game a best seller, right?

I've been completely demoralized to a point where I'm simply afraid of buying the game, because there's so little people playing it I will probably not be able to enjoy it for more than a week or so...

So whats the solution?

Uh... Erm... I think they hire more POC and genderqueer people? Maybe advertise their game at pride rallies?

Ok now this is 100% a steam point farmer lol.
