games

yes that was brought up

that should be the end of it

I can't figure out rabi-ribi, I'll just do paper mario again for some more practice when you test animal well

how do you setup the unofficial ones on the website?

I don't have my server updated

You can just put the apworld in the website

it just works

ok

back soon

Concord (the Sony Overwatch clone) has sold <5k preorders on PC

and they are SPOOKED

this is their big $300M game, only big release of theirs this year

that is hilarious

they just had a closed beta for pre-order people, every pre-order got 5 beta codes, game is on Stream, etc.

and there were severe lobby fill issues, for a 5v5 game

peaked at ~1k concurrent, dropped to 200-300 before the beta ended

lmao

lol even

deserved from everything I saw

since we like graphs

i'd rather play the paper mario overwatch clone

what was that stupid 2d/3d team shooter polu was playing

i'd rather play that

yeah that

I applied for beta access and never got a response

That is a way more healthy drop off

longer beta, minor decrease, still had >2k at the end

that Sony game is in so much trouble

40 dollars plus a battle pass no doubt

lol

and in-game store

That studio is getting closed

I never got a response but I am in

oh Pika

have you seen all the characters

Yes

the fat characters

are bizzare

I saw a twitter clip going through the full roaster and their quips they say as you select them

oh, I found that video

https://youtu.be/JrvcpmLNsWg?t=89

ok, timestamped

Second character has the eye makeup the chinese like

wait, that's a guy

I thought it was a fat woman

lmao

Putting pronouns on the fucking character select screen for every fucking fictional character is so fucking funny

it goes beyond normal pandering where it would be some optional flavour text lore log thing

wait they seriously gave them all pronouns

never again after project 2025

yep, top right

undecided is also very funny

"How should I refer to you?" "I do not know, please help"

ok it

I think 5/16 of the characters have a decent design (excluding default soldier)

mush/room

but of those 5, 2 are just copies of Guardians of the Galaxy characters

I am impressed none of them have vitalgo or whatever its called

That is another thing I saw on twitter, I never realized how much these weirdo's like that and want everything to have a character with it

all these character games need to launch with 30 characters minimum imo

OW had 21 on-launch, but added 5 or so in the first year

Overwatch did the right move though even for their roaster size

they hyped you up with pixar animations

so people were attatched to the characters right off the bat

Hell, I never played the game other than OW2, but I still think foldly on the characters from the early OW1 animations

the question should also be "is this character design something that someone would want to cosplay"

not for 100% of characters

but it's a good fallback if you're unsure about a design
