Concord : why did it take 8 years to make? (hackertalks.com)

Concord is very polished. But it still seems fairly contained, a bunch of heroes, a handful of maps. Where did the 8 years go?

Firewalk studios has 169 employees as far as i can tell.

They use unreal engine, no single player campaign

Where did the time go?

probably time wasted due to mismanagement of the game.

management chasing trends, asking for things in meetings they don't fully understand.

Yep, just because a game takes 8 years to make doesn't mean it was necessarily spent making a game that looks or plays anything like the one that eventually came out.
