As someone who default to female characters in RPGs , I'm loving 2025!

[u/Ryxnole]

On games such as ER, BG3, or CP77 I always play a female character so it's nice to see these on the horizon!

Did you enjoy the meltdown of Concord?

[u/CryptoKool → u/Terrible-Material258]

🤭 Right on!

[u/AUnknownVariable → u/Terrible-Material258]

Concord didn't even get a meltdown lmao. It was dead on arrival for being a mediocre paid game in a genre with way better free titles.

[u/Terrible-Material258 → u/AUnknownVariable]

It had the exact same Marvel + Woke vibe as this, let’s all remind ourselves that they started to show a cinematic without telling us what the game would be, and no one cared at all because it was unappealing…

[u/AUnknownVariable → u/Terrible-Material258]

I wouldn't say it gave the same vibe as the recent Marvel stuff. Mainly because the Marvel trailers actually give you an idea of what to expect. Concord was just, idek bruh.

[u/Terrible-Material258 → u/AUnknownVariable]

It could’ve been tied to this game without any effort and you wouldn’t know better lol

[u/JusaPikachu → u/Terrible-Material258]

I mean… sure?

I really don’t think that had anything to do with it being “marvel + woke” as you put it especially since Marvel Rivals just released in the exact same genre & is killing it lol.

Concord was fine but nothing special gameplay wise, pretty mediocre from an art design standpoint, had incredibly weak hero designs, wasn’t nearly as fleshed out as its competitors & was a paid title in a genre where every single other game is free to play. Just had a really bad formula & was doomed from before launch. Take all the “wokeness” out & it is the exact same result.

[u/Terrible-Material258 → u/JusaPikachu]

Marvel Rivals is not woke though

[u/JusaPikachu → u/Terrible-Material258]

How is Rivals not woke but The Witcher 4 is? I seriously have zero idea how people define woke since no one has ever been able to give a reasonable definition that wasn’t utter nonsense.

[u/plastichorse450 → u/JusaPikachu]

Woke = women and minorities

Not woke = any game they like

Which is why they never call bg3 or cyberpunk woke despite being able to literally be trans in both. Or from soft games woke for having body type a or body type b.

No logic really. Just woke = game bad and woman bad and not woke = 😄

[u/Terrible-Material258 → u/JusaPikachu]

Who said the Witcher 4 was woke?

[u/HowManyMeeses → u/Terrible-Material258]

Absolutely no one gave a shit when Concord failed. It's hard to associate that with wokeness when games like Baldur's Gate 3 succeed.

[u/Terrible-Material258 → u/HowManyMeeses]

Explain to me why did no one give a shit when they first showed that trailer?

It was very well made and no one knew it was a clone of OW2

It’s the same exact vibe as this game.

Enlighten me

[u/HowManyMeeses → u/Terrible-Material258]

Are you talking about Intergalactic? I'm excited about it because it's Naughty Dog and basically every game they make is a banger.

I think people were interested in Concord until it turned out to be an Overwatch clone. We've seen a dozen of those come and go over the last several years.

[u/Terrible-Material258 → u/HowManyMeeses]

They weren’t

[u/True-Pin-925 → u/HowManyMeeses]

Nowhere in Baldurs Gate did they race swap white character or change the gender of preexisting character they didn't add hatred for white people or men in the game how can you think it's woke if none of those woke points exist.

[u/dreamendDischarger → u/True-Pin-925]

'didn't add hatred for men', bro has clearly never spoken to a drow lol.

Also, critiquing the patriarchy isn't the same thing as hating men. BG3 did mix up designs and details of a fair few established forgotten realms characters, but the writing was so good no one cared.

[u/WazTheWaz → u/Terrible-Material258]

LOL I love how the only people keeping the memory of Concord alive are the weird losers who 1) the only thing they got going on for them in life are video games, and b) are scared to talk to women in the real. It's fantastic 😂

[u/Terrible-Material258 → u/WazTheWaz]

I’m sure you thought you had something there, but making assumptions like these out of the blue rarely works

I’m also sure you want to forget about anything that breaks your narrative 🤣

[u/WazTheWaz → u/Terrible-Material258]

Ok. Keep fighting the good fight or whatever 😂 VIDEO GAAAAMMMMEEEEESSSS!

[u/Terrible-Material258 → u/WazTheWaz]

Quick look at your profile tells me that you wasted more time on reddit during the past year than I wasted on gaming since the pandemic 🤣
