As expected. The fact that this game wasn't marketed well or even that it is a hero shooter are not its only problems. Game has other issues and that's why people don't play it.

It looks like its simply a bad game.

Concord is ranked in the 25th percentile of games scored on OpenCritic.

As I said, lack of marketing and genre are not the only reasons this is failing.

It also doesn't help when its developers call people who criticize/don't buy the game "talentless freaks." Like, maybe don't do that? Have some class?
