  • The character roster for this game looks so generic and boring.

    https://dotesports.com/concord/news/all-concord-characters-every-freerunner-weapon-ability-and-crew-bonus

    You have the choice of:

    -Cylindrical yellow robot (arguably this is the most original and interesting design)

    -Woman with puffy sleeves

    -Woman with box on head

    -Man with goggles and winter jacket

    -Old Woman

    -Woman with pauldrons

    -Generic Woman

    -Green woman with ears

    -Man with hat

    -Pink robot

    -Mushroom

    -Green man with shit on arms

    -Woman with sphere on head

    -Blue and Red man

    -Generic Man

    -Generic Woman 2

    Like, I’ve hardly played overwatch but at least I can tell from afar what most of the characters do from looking at them. Clearly, in overwatch, Giant knight with hammer is a melee tank, clearly the ninja guy with the sword is mobile and and has some melee ability, clearly the lady with the sniper rifle is a sniper, clearly the angel is a healer, clearly, the lady with the jetpack can fly and is support, etc.

    Applying this logic to concord, the BEST I can guess is that Woman with pauldrons is a tank, otherwise the design is so ass, I really can’t even tell.

    Get a design department and/or let them do their job Sony.


  • I’m not so sure about that. Windows despite its ads is still generally usable or at least readable, but adblockers affect almost every website, and in a much more extreme way, without which renders some websites virtually unusable. As someone else said, installing another browser is also far easier than taking backups, installing an entirely new OS, implementing your backups, and learning an entire new OS which may not readily support the software you have licensed from windows for most users.

    Users care a lot about convenience. I expect that they weigh installing and learning linux etc as less convenient than the ads in windows which is why they would not switch, but I expect when it comes to this case, they would weigh installing a different browser with adblock as much more convenient than using the internet with ads on every single website.
