They should have saved anthem and made it f2p. That thing had potential. They just fucked it.

People are much more likely to leave a negative review than a positive one

You'd be embarrassed to explain to people why you are playing it. Like trying to explain to your metal friends why you're listening to Bon Jovi.

Probably half of those 8,5k ratings are sony employes who rated it when given free copy and order to play/rate it by their boss+ woke(so like 95%) professional journos, who were given free copies too

If only there was a common thing between most of those games so developers would know what not to pursue...

Looking at the positive side, Concord should help Sony reevaluate their GAAS strategy, also I wish all publishers start thinking about making good games and steer away from pushing political agendas in their games. People are getting tired simply from these "political" messages being forced upon them everywhere.

Doing this badly is an achievement. I'd be surprised if Fairgame$ can match it. It has never looked appealing to me but it can surely still do better than 150 steam daily peak 7 days after launch. It might be f2p so that'd help.
Concord is a once in a generation event.

They'll get a lot of interviews. Who wouldn't want to chat about it for 20mins before laughing them out the door?

Don't forget the salary of the Professor. Professors always ask for a higher rate.
Let's say salary of one person is 80k per year it would give 960k for 12 people per year. Basically 1m in one year for 12 people.

Get fucked, Sony.
You had a good this going, you stupid son of a bitch. It was running like clockwork but you just had to chase the GaaS. If you’d done your job, release blockbuster single player games that made you what you are we would all be fine right now.
This gen is a shitshow.

Far more than I'd expected with these CCP numbers. Since it's IGN it probably is still too high of an estimate.

That's too many. Where were those players on the release day? It doesn't make sense you buy a MP game and don't play it from the beginning when everyone is on the same level.

Could the beta players review the game? That may explain the number of reviews.

How the hell did Ryan get the keys after last gen instead of the old crew...
Hope they cancelled all the plans he ever had

EZ, shut it down immediately. Cut the losses. No joke, every day this game is still live, it actively hurts sony's brand as a publisher in games.
If they came out tomorrow and said GUYS, we fucked up, this was a huge mistake... we are now going to focus on what we do best, etc. that would be a huge win.

It just doesn't add up.

Correct. The reviews on PSN can't be taken as a measure of sales because of that.
25,000...holy shit. It can't be that low, can it?

Sony axes IP that sold like 2 or 3 million for full price such as Days Gone, which sold approx 8 million once discounted to Concord levels.
Considering its player count in the free beta and just now i'd even find this a high estimate. Its that bad.
Sony was on a roll; God of War, Spiderman, Horizon and GT all sold well. Even Returnal, which is quite a hardcore game, is a million seller. Rift Apart sold 4+ million too. They were doing good on various fronts. I get that they want GaaS but they acquired Bungie. They aren't ready yet but they could've done something Destiny PvP related instead.
Now we're looking at a first party release that manages to sell 25k, which is ofcourse an incredibly bad outlook for Sony. Then people will say, yeah but they need only one smash hit. True, but its not a good outlook if your brand releases bomb after bomb. Fairgames will 100% bomb too.
