This is something people seem to not be capable of accepting when talking about Concord. They think it was "rejected" by ALL of gamers. They think there is no audience for the game, because people looked at the character designs and rejected them. But I've been saying, people don't know about this game. It's not even on the radar. The game was announced a mere 2ish months before launch and had little awareness raised around it. It didn't even have a steam page to follow for weeks after the announcement. There were a lot of unknowns about the game until the beta (and even after in terms of cosmetics and unlocks). How can hype and WOM form about so many unknowns, in such a short period of time? Only chuds used this to create negativity (and of course people are like, no way chuds don't matter!). Anyway, I think the lesson here is that failing to find an audience doesn't necessarily mean there is no audience. And a game isn't bad just cause it doesn't.

FWIW, the only reason I didn't buy it is because the specs are a little too high for my taste. I don't like when a game runs maybe 60 fps. I am used to 120+fps, so I'll get it when I upgrade my CPU if it's still going. I do think they should have targeted lower specs.

I won't argue that f2p wouldn't help. I don't think it's obviously a silver bullet either. They'd have to attract and hold WAY more players since the vast majority do not spend significantly.

 

The chuds. The chuds. The chuds.
