Re: Freelance Artist Attempts to Redesign PS5, PC Flop Concord's Cast

I don't think better character designs would have saved this game.

Like many people here I saw the initial reveal during the livestream and people in the chat seemed pretty interested/curious about the game when it was the cinematic story trailer.

It was when the words "5v5 team based hero FPS" were uttered was when the vibe shifted to overwhelmingly negative.

It's somewhat amusing because you can pin point the exact moment the game was doomed lol

Shiny paid dlc aside, I think it's worth mentioning the recent balance patch actually made the game less garbage.

Every fight isn't Johnny/Khameleon or Homelander/Khameleon now.

In addition to that the changes to the uppercut jump cancel is game changing. You can now punish jump ins for guaranteed, unbreakable damage. It can't be combo broken.

Kameos getting new moves now makes for so much more combo creativity across the board no matter who you play.

It's just a big step in the right direction after an awful first 9 months.

The issue is that it's just ok with a $40 price tag and plans for tons of battlepasses and MTX when all of their main competitors offer a similar experience with no $40 paywall.

This game needed to be better than just ok or good because otherwise it offers nothing that consumers can't go download and try for free right now.

It's not bad. I played the beta for a bit, but it's not something I see myself spending money on to play again or recommending to my friends.

It just doesn't do anything different, unique, or even good enough in this genre to justify it's price tag versus it's FtP peers.
