@get2sammyb is there any penalty for dying? My one pet peeve with lego video games (at least the ones I have played) is that you seem to have a health bar of four hearts but when depleted you just re-spawn right back so, What´s the point of the health bar?
I have never met anyone irl saying something along the lines of "D@mn, it would be really cool to play as a female version of Mr. Freeze or as the daughter of that character played by Will Smith in 2016´s Suicide Squad"
Been playing for a few hours. I would give it a 6, but I like Star Wars so I will give it a 7.
If it wasnt Star Wars, I would possibly never had tried this game in the 1st place. I would just had play something on my backlog (or Fortnite, or Fall Guys) instead.
Went back to re-watch the trailers. This game looks like It could have had a solid story campaign.
Its a shame they decided to go in a different direction. Its gonna be though to compete with free multiplayer games like Fortnite, Marvel Rivals, Star Wars Hunters, Overwatch, Destiny, Halo Infinite, Call of Duty Warzone. Etc.
This game Is possibly gonna flop and lose a lot of money. But I hope Im proven wrong, I can only wish the Best.
I dont know if this game is for me but I have a feeling it isnt. I wish it had a demo or it was "free to start" or something along those lines.
I´ve been gaming since the 80s. My first experience with online games was playing Destiny´s campaing on ps3, it was okay I guess but I kind of hated you couldn´t pause the game.
I was uninterested in online games for the longest time until Fall Guys released and caught my eye. I enjoyed that a lot for a few years but they basically stop creating new maps and seasons when they released Creative. Tried some community maps but its just not the same.
Im among the minority of people who didnt completely hate Suicide Squad´s main campaign. But the post-game? Grind the same repetitive missions again and again without any story or new dialogue just to unlock one boss fight, one cutscene, and one playable character? D@mn, its like they wanted me to stop playing the game
Tried Fortnite when there was a collab I wanted to check out and I didnt get the appeal. Tried CoD Warzone for the same reason (a collab) and didnt get the appeal either. Tried Apex legends when they did a FF7 collab and didnt like it either.
But I kept coming back to fornite every time there was a collab with characters I love: Futurama, The Last airbender, Star Wars, etc. Eventually I ended up liking the game and now I play it almost daily.
My free time is very limited and my backlog keeps growing. You may or may not like microtransactions and/or GaaS, but $40 on a game I probably wont like based on my experience with CoD and Apex Legends? Its a hard sell.
Im not a Sony hater. I have owned every Playstation console 1 through 5. I loved the Astro game that´s included with ps5 so I pre-ordered Astro´s upcoming game because I already know Im gonna love it (and I rarely pre-order games, last one was Tears of the kingdom and I cant even remember what was the last one before that). I have bought many sony exclusives before. Same for Xbox (who has less exclusives everyday but that´s another can of worms)
I will check out Marvel Rivals down the line. I might stick around for that one because it will have so many characters I love. But if you took away those characters, and replace them with generic ones, I probably wouldnt stick around unless the gameplay blew my mind or something.
And that´s the thing with concord: No characters I already love or that seem interesting to me and would like know more about. No big, "blew my mind" innovations on gameplay (that I can tell from trailers or reviews). No demo or free to start. No trailers that caught my eye. No soundtrack that makes me feel something. Nothing.
Just a game I probably wont like based on my experiences with CoD and Apex Legends, that had potential to be so much more, asking for 40 dollars (+ an online subscription I would have to pay in order to play on ps5?) when I have a backlog of exclusive games for different Nintendo, Sony, and Xbox consoles and I can play fortnite for free with friends & families on different consoles, and I have limited free time.
But Im happy for people who are enjoying this game. Good for them. Concord just doesnt seem to be for me.

Re: Prospective PS6 Purchasers Would Consider a Portable Model
I like the idea of a handheld ps6 as long as it doesnt hold back the sationary console.
Re: Poll: Did You Pre-Order a PS5 Pro?
Im still happy with my base PS4! I only use my Ps5 to play games the ps4 wont run (like Astro´s Playroom for example).
I could change my mind later. Right now I rather save the money for the Nintendo Switch Successor, Ps6, and/or NeXtBox
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Star Wars Outlaws?
Been playing for a few hours. I would give it a 6, but I like Star Wars so I will give it a 7.
If it wasnt Star Wars, I would possibly never had tried this game in the 1st place. I would just had play something on my backlog (or Fortnite, or Fall Guys) instead.
