Games

Can't call it a crowded market when the vast majority of games under the "hero shooter" category are cheap at best and excessively greedy at worst. As a long time Overwatch and Apex Legends player I've been waiting years for a good replacement. I'm not saying Concord is that game to replace said hero shooters (And games like Valorant are in a category of their own.) I'm just saying that if there was an actual competitor to a fast paced game like Overwatch that isn't as blatantly greedy, I would 100% play it.

The community is thirsty for a fresh take on the hero shooter and everyone I know that plays Overwatch and Apex Legends are in the same boat. It's why games like Team Fortress 2 are having a resurgence. The only reason we play these games is because they are the best gameplay wise. At the same time, the bar is so low we'll give any game that wants to put in the effort a try. I played the beta of Concord and enjoyed it quite a bit. It's rough around the edges, don't get me wrong. But that's what betas are for. I paid $40 for Overwatch before it went free to play and they locked all cosmetics, old and new, behind a paywall. So if it's decent I'll pay $40 for Concord.
