What's going to tank worse, this or the African samurai simulator?
I think Assassin's Creed: George Floyd tanks harder. It's had a lot longer to simmer.

Tranny Age will see some nostalgia sales, but they'll fall off a cliff once normies become aware of how trash it is. The game won't even break even.

Definitely the samurai simulator. I think this game has gotten less attention from the normies so more people will stumble into buying it. I’m expecting it to be a starfield type scenario.

True. This game has a lot of hidden DEI and leftist talking points, but at least it isn't shitting on a thousand years of recorded history.

Most people probably wouldn't even know about the agenda in this game if they didn't parade around the transvestite lead developer.

2. I've said it before, but studios are carrying a HUGE amount of employee dead weight. Ubisoft is a prime example of this. They employ thousands of people, but still have to contract competent white men at ridiculously inflated rates to finish games. I suspect that most studios could cut a full third of their staff and it would have ZERO impact on production. In fact, dumping the theys, zers, shaniquas, and the rest of the completely useless DEI vampires would almost guarantee an improvement in production.

Suddenly, your $100 million game is now $60 million and the odds you stay afloat to make another game go up exponentially.

And yet Tencent is eyeing a massive cash infusion into Ubisoft.

Well I think Concord set the bar for failure
Not sure, i watched Joker 2 last night. I didnt think it was possible for something else to be AS bad as the Borderlands movie, but i keep getting surprised by the amount of fails this year.

bioware has under 1k employees working on dragon age and mass effect. Ubisoft has like 20k employees and probably half of them are working on AC George Floyd. Its gonna be the much, much bigger loss to the point where Ubisoft may be in serious financial trouble after an unending string of losses with no reversal in sight.

If Dragon Age sucks (sales) EA will just fire half of bioware, maybe get them to not DEI mass effect 5 (who knows), pump that out in a year or two, and keep going. Bioware is a tiny, tiny part of EA compared to all the success they are having with NCAA/Madden/NHL/Apex/etc.

Microsoft just announced today that Black Ops 6 is the best selling call of duty of all time and PC sales are up like 60% from last year, hopefully that means normies are just playing COD and won't even register this piece of shit on their radar

Medieval fantasy lore video game and they decided to make it focus on lecturing the player about modern day social political talking points.

Who actually buys this crap?

Let's assume your statement is correct (it isn't). What's your point?

What's actually happening is that Tencent is looking to buy Ubisoft in its hobbled state. The IPs that Ubisoft owns are extremely valuable and could mint billions if handled well.

You've completely lost your mind if you think that Tencent would invest in Ubisoft, unless they become the single, dominant shareholder (i.e. effectively the same thing as owning them).

Neither of these is gonna be concord levels of flop. That whole game was retarded from square one.
I don't think anyone believes this game is going to repeat what Concord did. Losing 400+ million dollars on a single project is absolutely astounding and not something we're likely to see often.

However, Veilguard will lose a ton of money.

Not specific to Dragon Age here, but all these games lately make it clear we lost gamergate. All the western devs listen to the stuff Anita Sarkisian was complaining about an implemented it. Now they just dont have as many costumers due to that.

Well this is all starting to make more sense. Should just move this game thread to GamerGate thread as this game contains some of GG's greatest hits. This creature tweeted this last night:

Some of you may remember them from this banger:

This game succeeding will be one of the worst things in gaming since Lara Croft's breast reduction.

Watching them lose of millions of dollars and massive job losses feels more like it’s clear it’s still not over and they’re not winning anything. There’s still good games releasing all the time.

Big studios are struggling and there have been a few pretty big failures in the last couple years that could be argued failed due to identity politics bullshit and/or simply being associated with woke dogshit like Sweet Baby Inc.

With the way this has been happening I don’t see how people can make the argument we lost gamer gate. We lost some battles, but it’s pretty clear the war is turning in our favor.

I'm not sure how it all works but is there no way to save Concord and alter it somehow? Turn it into some other project? To release a game and throw it away in what 4 days is still crazy

Just none by white people. Europe and North America are lost.

The big wins were Wukong and Elden Ring? I wouldn't call BG3 a win for WASPs. Sure it was only half gay, but that's a big fail in my book.

I think I fried my brain a bit in the military. I know I loved the fuck out of Summoner, but I cant for the life of me remember what I loved about the game.
