My 8 year old phone actually had a much higher screen resolution but I think it scaled everything.

Now on this one the only setting I can find is to just lower the resolution. Not scale the content, just run below 1080p. Weird.

It's just some lights lol. I expected something to open up.

Still cool though.
The silly thing is the door is already opened. It just doesn't let you through until the countdown is done.

Plus if Sony is confident in it, that's not a sign of it being good. They were so confident in Concord that they bought the studio last year.
Everybody keeps saying this.

But I guess I feel like it's different.

Sony being confident about Concord doesn't mean that the internal developers at Firewalk were excited about what it was doing. There's already been a character artist that came out and complained that people above them were pushing certain character designs on them.

And I guess I assume that positive internal chatter comes from the developers themselves, and not the people that felt good about Concord.

Fairgame is a non lethal game that is trying to be edgy. How many of those have worked out?
Are we sure it's nonlethal? End of the trailer looks like someone getting shot at. Unless it's something else. (I have no idea what I'm looking at, to be fair)

I think it could be a lot more fun than people expect.
They're showing some kind of rocket launcher and grappling hook thing.  And lots of other gadgets.



And all of this is assuming that nothing has changed from the trailer and that the trailer was completely representative of the game.

with respect to fairgame$,...  somewhere here I posted that GaaS game are risky in that they are community based.   early success drives more success.  early failure drives more failure.   

I literally said only a GaaS game could have $0 in revenue.  I was actually being facetious but apparently concord proved me right. 

fairgame$ first impression was not amazing and I think the concord drama actually makes things worse for them.  I don't think it's impossible for it to be successful but it's going to be hard.   the re-announcement trailer is going to be make/break for them so they better nail it. 



still think the horizon one will do well.   just as a concept sentence it sounds good.

Fairgame is a non lethal game that is trying to be edgy. How many of those have worked out? Even just having one of those 2 usually kills a multiplayer game. Nintendo gets a pass but off the top of my head I can't think of any others that made it.

Plus if Sony is confident in it, that's not a sign of it being good. They were so confident in Concord that they bought the studio last year.

Like Concord it just looks like a game without an audience. Great gameplay could go a long way though. They've only shown trash so far but maybe it's really fun, idk.





Also with Concord now being dead, it's funny how many people are talking about it. This is the most anyone has ever cared about it: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?geo=US&q=%2Fg%2F11w3hhj9px&hl=en-US
