Planned obsolescence doesn't account for games like Concord

- DrillShopper 1y agoLive service shooters usually have a very short lifespan unless they can displace Overwatch, Valorent, Fortnite, or Destiny Even Halo (Infinite) couldn't manage it Stop buying this kind of game if you are expecting game preservation from one of the worst studios running.

- const_cast 1y agoConcord was dead even at the conceptual stage. The problem is these big AAA studios are always chasing the hottest new thing, never innovating for themselves. It's the same problem with movies. They're so unbelievably expensive that nobody will dare pay for something that isn't already proven. But if you do something that's proven, there's a good chance it's just gonna come up second best. Worst case scenario, it comes out as uninspired slop, destined for the bargain bin, like Concord.
- pasta67 1y agoThe article is not radiating original narrative and some mistakes can be made, but it is missing very big issue that modern game developers are able to solve with live games. All the old games became popular because they were heavily pirated. Sometimes that was the only reason. Up till 2010s I only played pirated games - even when they were on steam. The only reason why some of those games are in my steam/gog account now is because I had played those games as pirated copies. Not all of them were good games, though, but at least I can launch them and try again.
