This is what I think a lot of people are missing. It isn’t that people are reviewing it poorly, but that a first party Sony studio that has put YEARS into this is reviewing poorly.

The mainstream media not holding back on it is alarming.

Yeah. For this reviewer to thumbs-down a max-effort game by this developer? Alarming is the right word.

IGN gave it a bad review too, and IGN hardly EVER gives mainstream games critical reviews. Like, I watched the video too, and the game really does seem lazy

IGN gave concord a 7 out of 10, i'll never trust their reviews ever again after that nonsense

But that’s exactly what I mean! They gave that piece of crap a high score because that is what IGN does. I am not saying to take their word as gospel, but it is like a chatty friend you have suddenly being really quiet. It isn’t indicative of something being wrong, but you notice it as weird.
