Let’s see, Sony is whining about not knowing what their players want…
They want Bloodborne Remastered, ported to PC. They don’t want to sign in to PSN to play on non-Sony hardware.
Want to print money? Do that…
Generally speaking, games don’t fail because of the decisions made by the developers. That’s usually caused by people higher up the food chain, you’d think a film/tv producer would know all about that
It’s a mystery how a paid multiplayer team hero shooter with microtransaction, featuring uninspiring character design, launched and compete with other good f2p multiplayer game, and won’t sell. Can’t crack the code, sorry.
Three big reasons imo
- No iconic characters. Every character I remember looked kinda ugly or sidekick’ish at best.
- Charging for a game archtype others are giving away for free.
- Nothing new done in that archtype.
I don’t think point 3 is quite fair. There were some new ideas thrown into the game.
The issue is those ideas were not fun, or very badly implemented. I believe it was the ranked mode, where if you won the round you were then locked out of playing that character again. They also had you build out a collection of characters to pick from before the game started.
There were some new ideas, I just don’t know of any that were good and added to the game. The only ones I know of seemed bad(or at least badly implemented) and took away from what enjoyment people had with the game.
The choose N heroes things is also in deadlock. They require you to choose 3 and you’re given 1 based on preference and queue time. Can’t be a1-trick but you can usually get the same hero each game
I don’t think you can compare the deadlock and concord mechanics. The concord one is more like, congratulations you won a round with the M4 in CS… You can no longer use the M4 for the rest of the game.
We made a game that nobody wants! Why does nobody want it? We explicitly told you to!
It wasn’t the developers that were at fault.
There’s no one accusing that Concord died due to lack of investment!
