Wrooooong yet again stalker. I personally waged a one man Operation Mayhem on their poo-encrusted studio. Every delivered pizza had beef liver snuck onto it, every ladies' restroom sign was replaced with a men's sign, every Tesla charging station was harvested for its copper. Prison, child! This is why your remasters suck.

2 years later people are still mogging Concord for content:
The video is actually a broader exploration of why all these Concordlikes (including ones that came before it) keep failing; I thought it was pretty good because it delves deeper than 'characters ugly lol' and 'CEOs dumb'.
I particularly like the characterization of these games as industry plants, where you take a game nobody asked for that's copying something already popular, then attach a bunch of famous names to it to create artificial credibility/hype, then it fails because nobody making it actually cares.

Really terrible video. It's just the usual Shredded nerd slop where he takes a bunch of losely related things talked about on twitter and tries to create a pattern.
One of the examples he lists is Hyeans where he says:
That's not what happend. CA pitched Hyneas to Sega just like they pitched aliens isolations. Sega is very handsoff publisher specially since total warwarhammer (which they were making at the time) was the most succesfull they have ever made it was beacuse that succes that they were able to work on Hyenas. They wanted to work on a hero shooter.
Shredded nerd just picks buzzwords and has no substance. Im sure if you went in to his other examples you would find that they squished to fit his narrative.
It actually gets more ridiculous than that with Sega up until their recent financial report. Even after Hyenas, they still want to continue "super game"(because live service games weren't good enough) and only just finally cancelled it(after spending god knows how much on it in time and money) with people speculating it was anything from a jet set raidio MMO, to some super complicated crazy taxi thing.
This shredded nerd guy sounds like an idiot.
edit: I actually started watching the video, this guy is full of shit. Concord wasn't a brand new studio(Sony bought the studio), had 2000 people working on the project, didn't have a bunch of "Famous" industry people on it, and keeps claiming "industry plant" this man has no idea what the fuck an "industry plant" is, and keeps using DA Veilguard and Horizon zero whatever as examples. Those games are not "industry plants" they're games that were sold to executives as the next big thing(there's a reason Hermen Hulst is still at Sony shilling internally for Guerilla Games, he can sell his bullshit well enough to other execs and the board of directors). DA Veilguard wasn't an industry plant, it's what was leftover at Bioware after everyone with any real talent had already been replaced in the previous 15 as they left or just got burnt out due to the "bioware magic"(it also wasn't the only flop from Bioware, guy needs to go back and see what they've actually been wasting time on since Mass Effect 3). And Forspoken? With the black girl who speaks like a millenial with the quippy magic bracelet? That was a Square Enix internal studio spun off to be a game engine company with Forspoken basically trying to be a tech demo for their Luminous Game Engine, which was of course re-absorbed back into the company once it went fucking nowhere and nobody was interested in their game engine since their only other "product" was fucking Final Fantasy 15 of all things, the weird boy band one that spent a decade in development hell and turned out to be shit with it's story DLC getting cancelled and a lot of notable talents leaving the company due to the management being such a pain in the ass to work with.
Yeah I'm not going to bother watching the rest of this. Apparently "industry plant" = established game studio notoriously having been run by idiots.

You're right guys I guess it was the pronouns that killed Concord after all.
No, it was certainly a lot of things, it's just that this particular shreddednerd guy sounds like an infuriating idiot. When DA:V came out and was well... shit, there were even some kiwis that proposed "de-wokify mods" as if removing the tranny from the game would solve the only problem and suddenly make it good, ignoring literally everything else obviously wrong with it.
Like I said, the issue is that these are studios, sometimes long established studios, where the people with any talent had actually left ages ago(in the case of Bioware and Square Enix/Luminous) or never existed but had a hell of a sales guy(Guerilla Games/Firewalk) pitching a halfassed dev team as being able to create the next billion dollar IP. No, making Daw not fat wouldn't have fixed Concord. Even if the gameplay wasn't slow and shitty(which was reported by the handful of people that actually played it who weren't journos), it was a game sold to Sony for an obviously overhyped genre 5 years past it's prime(which lets be real, development on the game didn't even start until 2018 after Overwatch had already come and started to fade within the hero shooter genre). The fact that they wanted to go with a "stealth" marketing and release strategy for this mess with the entirety of the marketing money spent on post-launch advertising(the animations that were never released, the amazon prime video show, etc.) shows how fucking incompetent they were about it because they wanted to try and copy Apex Legends and they aren't the only publisher that's tried and failed at this shit recently, Bandai-Namco did it again with their Unknown universe shit that was also going to be the next big IP for them, and immediately failed but had a bunch of post launch marketing lined up as well. Turns out advertising your game is another important aspect of being able to sell it, go figure.

The COD gameplay ripoff thing that he brought up in the video also doesn't hold up to scrutiny. Yes Titanfall 1 & 2 were not that big (he ignores why 2 ended up flopping), however you know what ended up becoming huge after it started aping the exact COD-isms he brings up? Fucking Battlefield! Like COD doesn't own ADS any more than the Rainbow Six games. This diatribe he goes into to try to explain why Concord likes fail due to trend chasing he also hardwaves when it comes to Fortnite. He spends a lot of time on that when in reality it doesn't make sense. Prior to that it would have been simple just to point out that the games were chasing BAD ideas, not just chasing trends in general.
I will give him a bone on the Chinese American aesthetic showing up everywhere though

I cannot stand Shreddednerd's content, you can tell just by the way he speaks how smug he always feels despite criticising redditors and twitter tards for the same thing, as well as him coming off as a fake soyteen.
As for the "woke" thing, I've seen a few people put like this, If Concord had the exact same gameplay, but all the "wokeness" was removed (at least what they consider to be woke), would they still play it? If no, then wokeness wasn't the problem, at least not the main problem.
And that's usually the problem with these games. The "woke" crap is just a surface level veneer of more shit on top of an even worse turd.
DA:V would have been shit without the tranny character. The gameplay balance between classes was garbage, the dialogue was retarded, the party members were just basically cooldowns that barely interacted with anything if at all, and even the main story in general was just dumb,
AC: Shadows. Yes it would have been less stupid to not have Yasuke in the game but if it were a 6'5" samurai with jpop instead of rap playing during boss fights as he kool-aid man'd his way through villages actually be better? Not really. The story and dialogue were still shit, and who the fuck wants to play as an NFL player screaming his way through an AC game?
SW: Outlaws, it would have looked better if they didn't make the main character ugly as shit. But the gameplay, level design, enemy AI, basically everything was complete garbage.
Concord, again the gameplay was boring and slow, the level design was bland, and it came out a half decade after people had already fallen out of favor with the hero shooter genre, thanks to Blizzard trying desperately to astroturf Overwatch into an esport. There were a bunch of other failed hero shooters as well including LawBreakers and Quake Champions that had already failed.
This first one is Lawbreakers, 2nd is Quake champions. Both of these games peaked and died before they were even released, and Sony still thought Concord was worth buying in 2023?
Forespoken I already explained as a japanese studio basically trying to make a tech demo for their shitty game engine no one wanted
Avowed wasn't even "woke" it was just a crap game that managed to do less than ES: Oblivion that came out 19 years prior hyped by a studio whose biggest hits were shit they got handed to basically fix up rather than being entirely their own thing, with the 3 games prior to Avowed basically being flops.
Skull & Bones, wasn't anything "woke" about this crap at all. Who the fuck thought not being able to board enemy pirate ships would make sense in an action game about pirates?
Mixtape was woke as fuck, but it wasn't even a game. It was just a fucking animation project pitched to Larry Ellison's daughter who wants to continue wasting money chasing her retarded dreams of running a movie studio.
Dustborn was so "woke" it was comical, but with the "woke" shit removed, it would have been a boring game no one would have cared about for any reason whatsoever.
Highguard, another woke game with millions of dollars wasted on a shitty gameplay loop that couldn't sustain itself no matter what the characters looked like. The game was so fucking woke that one of the female characters looked so much like a man people didn't even notice for a while to complain until they finally saw some side boob on an alt skin, and launched in the state it did because the studio literally ran out of money and couldn't beg for more from China.
It's not that these games were woke. They were all shit regardless, and anyone claiming these games wouldn't have been failures if they didn't have niggers, ugly women, pronouns, rainbow flags, fat people, etc. is a fucking moron.

Serious question, who the fucks the one person still playing Lawbreakers? Just thumbing through that chart over on SteamDB it's been at 1-3 players since Covid year, the actual fuck, I thought it had been EoS'd and shut down.This first one is Lawbreakers, 2nd is Quake champions. Both of these games peaked and died before they were even released, and Sony still thought Concord was worth buying in 2023?
lol, no idea. It's probably just someone who never uninstalled and loaded the launcher. Someone did it a few weeks ago for Concord and highguard as well.

Nah, this horseshit has been debunked for a decade.
Yes, wokeshit makes a game substantially worse.
Yes, removing wokeshit makes a game better.
Yes, your strawmanning pissbabyism about it not becoming the greatest game ever if it was removed is retarded.
"This Toyota Corolla may be doused in liquid shit top to bottom, but it wouldn't be the best car even if it wasn't doused in shit!" says the retarded mongoloid, as if the shit isn't literally the deciding factor whether the Corolla becomes an acceptable ride or a worthless pile of garbage nobody would sit in. Your big "argument" is that it wouldn't become a Ferrari, like that's not the most retarded position in existence. Wokeshit is the equivalent of dousing a game in shit, lilbro.
And may I present everyone the fucking moron. Observe, the retard who cannot make an actual argument so makes an absurd comparison involving a toyota corolla which is a functional car, as if any of the games I mentioned would be good if they didn't have any woke shit, when In fact I pointed out the many ways the games are still trash without the rainbows and trannies in them.
Basically, an illiterate nigger.
It's strawmanning pissbabyism by pointing out that removing the woke shit still leaves the games as shit? Seriously? What the fuck is your argument even? Hell, what did I even say that has you so upset unless you're a dumb faggot that actually likes the games I listed? Please, enlighten us.
The gameplay of Concord? The repetitive dialogue of DA Veilguard? Which game did I insult so dearly that you had to defend it as a faggot? Which one is the secretly good game hiding under those tranny flags?

Absolute winner of a reparte, lilbro. In order:
- Your dogshit argument gets ripped apart via an analogy that illustrates how horribly stupid your logic is
- You fail to parse the analogy due to your autism
- You have a seething meltdown
- You just repeat your already debunked horseshit strawmanning pissbabyism
Learn to read you spastic faggot, instead of having an emotional tard sesh. Once you do, reread my post from the start, it already answers all your faggot queries, lilbro.
And once again, the illiterate retard doesn't have an actual argument after their tardrage, and cannot explain how any of the games I listed are secretly amazing once all of the pride shit has been filed off. They can't even quote the post without changing what was said in their chimp-out. Or they still just can't grasp that it doesn't matter if the shitty games have anything "woke" since the games were shit to begin with.
Again, please tell us all how the games I listed are all actually amazing under the woke shit instead of just being trash at their core.
