Apologies for the sound in this video. If I continue this format, I will try and address this in the future. Let me know if you like this style of video and would like to see more!
So few people played the game and yet I think many people saw the footage, so logically what they saw put them off , for some the hero shooter might be put people off but I believe it was the dull characters and just the general look and vibe of it that put people off
I also believe that in addition to being bland and overpriced, there simply wasn't enough marketing. Most of my friends hadn't heard of the game until it's failed release and even basically unplayable games usually don't flop this hard
I can't take you seriously when you dance around mentioning the game's Wokeness, just come near the end and say it's a non issue because Overwatch did it. 1. Overwatch announced as homosexual their characters well after it's released, people didn't take them seriously, and even they didn't take it seriously, as you often have to dig to find that information. As much as the average Joe is aware, all characters are straight and highly pornable. Concord was in your face with it's Wokeness day one, with the characters being a checklist of everything woke, including their musch disliked obsession with enforcing preferred pronouns. 2. You only get one chance at a first impression. When your very first proper trailer shows so much Wokeness, and the time when the whole movement was imploding from being overused, you can be sure you have drove away most of your audience regardless of gameplay. The low sales, as opposed to a drop in sales, suggest most people didn't even reach the "gameplay" part.
I agree 100% when you say you only get one chance at a first impression. I tried to avoid just saying the game is "woke" because I just felt it was a bit too generalised hence why I spoke a lot about the characters and stories. There are other games that have those inclusive characters but in an FPS, most people don't care and would rather better maps, modes and weapons. But thank you for watching and contributing, I welcome the different opinions and view points 💚 At the end of the day, this game wasn't received well and like you said, you only get one chance at a first impression and it is going to be a huge uphill battle to resurrect it.

Well done

This game had such a lack lustre vibe. Really great points, these characters were not it

Interesting, I didn't talk although about the quantity of marketing material. That's a really good point, thank you for watching and commenting!
