It was genuinely magical, I feel bad for everyone who missed out
did newfags who didn't even care about this game latch onto the memes about it so hard because it was one of the only times they were there to see a meme get popularized and finally felt like they had one to call their own and exclaim "i was there!" when it was happening?

TORtanic Mk2
>>722665828This would have been good if all the characters were monsters, furries, kemonos, or handsome humans, and Bazz was a “cool black” from the 80s who, when he jumps and hits the ground, shouts BAZZ-INGA!
you weren't there unless you actually played it. otherwise you were just a spectator.
>>722665976your gay
>>722667503my gay? where!?
>>722665976A new meme gets popularized every hour you fucking retard
>>722665828lol no fag
>>722668418Then why does it feel like we haven't had any new ones since 2018?
>>722665828We should start a petition for them to bring it back like with the Morbius movie.
It's just a cancelled game now, like hundreds of AAA games cancelled over the decades. But what a trip it was at the time.
Is the OP a bot or redditor ?
>>722665828>t. better man
>>722672637>can't recognise obvious baitnewfag or underage?or both?
>>722672637you literally had to be thereit got shit down in like a week
>>722672863...what?
>>722665976>>722672637>>722673013What's up with all these dumb newfags in this thread? Did the concord image summon them here, or what?
>>722673229Shut up, faggot.
>>722666283Tortanic actually made money
>>722665828it was the most milquetoast, mid shooter imaginable
>>722673229i suspect xhey're better men from reddit who got pissy seeing a concord thread
>>722673267You're literally retarded
>>722672241I wanted to play as the automatic pistol edgy ballerina
>>722672863>>722673382Is this supposed to be your subtle attempt at forcing a meme?
Watching the player count on steam go lower and lower and lower was a special experience.
>>722673502don't you have something to prep?
>>722672241CA was already kind of bad, but ever since this flop died in the crib its gotten worse. You just know it's caused layoffs that are still being felt. All of it can be traced back to Yeeners.
>immediately starts trying to talk about interracial pornOf course.
>>722665828I wish i was there when it died to join the meme
>>722673640Last years cope was amazing
>>722673796It was a RETVRN TO FORM, chud
Concord might be dead, but Bazz lives on
>>722673327Still does.
>concord>dustborn>veilguardthe trifecta will it ever be topped in one year?
>>722670261because none of them are organic or have enough of an impactmore people remember Pool's closed or MLG or even some minor shit like Awkward Penguin than they do whatever random meme of the week some faggot tried forcing, in a month nobody will remember "Better men" or any of this week's crap
>>722674114humiliation ritual ahh post ngl blud :skull:
>>722674087It's so weird to me because those games have absolutely nothing that both brings them together yet sets them apart from all else other than being games that /v/ hyperfixated on as being bad without knowing why, other than that they were supposed toSo to me it reads like a Redditor going "bacon, pumpkin spice and Keeanu Reeves!"
better men seem mad about the meme for some reason WE NEED TO BE BETTERER MEN
>>722674087
>>722674190>t. better man who pretends to not understand I see you

>>722674634Breakfast status
>>722674087Marathon and Fairgame$ if they don't get cancelled.
>>722675520Runner game over'd with no savefile 45 minutes into a 3 hour run. It was awkward. https://youtu.be/mRTs0HvUjvI?t=2835
The week that Concord released was wild. Watching its 670 concurrent players crater to less than 100 in 3-4 days was glorious to watch.It was funny how optimistic thought the bomb was, expecting 5-7k concurrent and a shutdown next year.
>>722666481Not playing it was part of the experience
>>722666462>shouts BAZZ-NIGGA!fixed that for you
there are streams where dudes went into stores to buy concord and the people working there didn't even know it existed, it was hilarious.
>OH NO YOU MISSED SOME LE EPIC TORTANIC-ESQUE SHITPOSTING FROM ZOOMIES AND ALPHASYou have to be retarded.Concord had literally no hype behind it.No big name.It was dead on arrival.TORtanic on the other ahdn was1. a big developer behind it2. a beloved franchise behind it3. the entire moderator saga
>>722665828It was actually one of the most exciting times to be a gamer, unironically. Seeing Concord fail and lurking threads, reddit, twitter to see the laughter and meltdowns. All at the expense of Corpos and Libtards. I honestly believe the industry needed Concord's Flop. It should be a Gamer Holiday.
>>722666283TORtanic was something that occurred in a functional industry. A new TORtanic is made every day, it's meaningless now. No one has to make a concentrated effort to ruin things.
>>722674483Jesus Christ no textures on that upper pavement before the water
>star wars like potentialThis whole Concord saga felt like a shitpost. How do so many people work on this or looked at it thought, "damn, this is the future of not just gaming, but all of media."
Had to be there to see it fail so hard. And the copium as to why. Truly glorious.
>BAD GAME IS LE GOOD ACKSHUALLYget new material
>>722676310I have this feeling that Marathon could turn things around but that's just the perspective of a non-Bungie fan that sees the way Destiny cultists consoom their slop. It's got an uphill climb but I could still see a future for that game.Fairgames I see no future for. It's either canceled or a Concord level disaster, and we know now how terrified sony is of the latter scenario.
>>722678152I took OP to mean all the fun people had mocking it, not the game itself.
>>722678105everyone had to have been huffing their own farts. You don't look at that fucking disaster of a character roster, the current media landscape, and think "this is the one, this is the thing that makes hundreds of trillions."
>>722674087we still have intergalactic to look forward to
>>722678105We have gone beyond the concept of TORtanic and it's kind of hard to grasp. There was no iceberg moment. No one coordinated a harassment campaign to end Concord. It is safe to say nearly no one knew it was coming out at all. It wasnt even discussed here at all until a few whispers after the failed public beta. Even then, it was still very quiet. We got to witness a self inflicted, shared corporate psychosis. The level of self delusion in that space is hard to describe. We got eye witness reports that indicated most the devs there were essentially living in a micro-USSR type state.
2025i am forgotten
>>722677131copers were saying that the free beta numbers were just a small portion of the actual buyers. oh boy were they wrong.
>>722677737Remind me of the date I'll put it in my calendar
>>722677696>Concord had literally no hype behind it.copers were telling us that they were the silent majority and the game would sell millions.
>>722677367I jerked off more with the music than these fucking worms.
i can't believe it's been over a year...
>>722678152this is more the lost media crowd.
>>722674215B O X F O X
>>722678659It's not like they didn't try to hype it up. This is a rare case of the woke crowd trying to make it on their own with an AAA original IP.The hype never materialized because everyone immediately saw it and were instantly turned off. It didn't parasitically leech off an established IP to get built-in hype. It fizzled out as quickly as it was showcased.
>>722673640And how hard they were trying to pretend that Failguard was actually a huge success. Those fags have no shame.
>>722677131Those 600 people not even logging in on the last day before the servers shut down really shows you how great that game was.
>>722678695>not I am unknown
>>722672241Damn, anyone has that leaked pitch video where it's just a compilation of sci-fi and marvel movies with narration and Blue by Eiffel 65 playing in the background? Shit was amazing.
>>722673640A RETURN TO FORM they said
>>722681095Who would win in an open confrontation?
>>722678695>This was supposed to launch a multi-media story franchiseWhat were they thinking?
Today i will remind themhttps://youtu.be/iU_K_8KASts
This right here started the whole ad apocalypse and is the reason why every content creator has to censor themselves now and say shit like "unalive" instead of kill or murder.
>>722682337>he wears the momoi headphonesNow I see why they do that.
>>722682408POWERFUL GAMER
>>722681802we want the indian audience
>>722678152who are you quoting?
>>722683309There's a lot of people there, you can find any mass media having fans.
>>722683309WOW! big hit in india sir! WOW!
But I was there.
>>722683309There's like 3 billion indians alone and anyone that can collectively tap their demographic as a market wins. That's why they're pushing these goofballs so hard. It's why Avatar will always make a billion dollars.
>>722687613Same with China really. Retards keep saying chink games sell well when 99% of the sales are from china.
>>722687613the problem is most of them are too poor to afford the product. when you live like this, video games are out of reach luxuries.
>>722687895I believe we should skip the bullshit and firebomb most of India to save the Tigers by cleansing their lands.Agreed?
>>722687613>anyone that can collectively tap their demographicThis has been a fool's errand for years and years. Various companies have thought "billion people, billion customers!" and tried to tap into India to total failure. They're frankly impossible to figure out, and the country is extremely poor so most of that billion will never see your product or service let alone afford it or even be interested in it. Companies try pandering to India, and get nothing. Some international stuff not even aimed at it takes off there while other nearly identical stuff does nothing. It's a waste of time.
>>722688415But Tigers get fat from eating them.
>>722687613Avatar didn't do anything notable in India nor does it have any kind of large following there, what are you talking about? And Avatar 1 and 2 both did over 2 billion, not one. It was elsewhere their money was made, all over the globe, from China to US to UK and rest of Europe, etc. China was notable for Avatar 1 in particular because in 2009 their international box office was not nearly as big and developed as it became in the 2010s but it still did over 200 million there, as did the sequel.I would say Avatar's not particularly styled to Indian blockbuster tastes despite the films having a lot of action and spectacle, they seem to prefer a gaudier kind of action with more heavy usage of overt visual effects (Avatar, obviously, being much more naturalistic in its film-wide visual effects).
>>722688591"Most of" leaves more than enough meat for the tigers and fertilizer for the elephants
>>722665828Wasn't there also a plane with the same name that was discontinued after it lost a lot of money and caused some deaths? Kek
>>722673640>Friend is a huge fan of the series>Told him that /v/ was watching it like the stock market hoping it'll flop>He buys it out of spite>Plays the intro, is disappointed, and shelves it foreverkek
>>722688415Finally somebody who gets it. Eating ze bugs isn't ecological victory, it's cleansing India of "human" life.
>>722690112Guys you hear this? We found the final solution!
