I did the work for all you fellas who check under your beds at night for SBI and other DEI Consultancy Agencies. It doesn't matter to me even if it did but I went through Concord credits and I could not find a single spooky "Consultancy Agency" and yes I even searched the studios on Google that I wasn't familiar with and checked them up to see what they were about, I wasted my time to do the research that the hot-takers couldn't. 🫡
It seems as though Firewalk did reject the writing consultants! Time to change the argument to "It doesn't matter if there's no DEI writing consultants, Firewalk ARE the DEI writers!" Lol...Which okay, feel free to argue that but at least we can establish that Concord had no outside "Consultancy Agencies" influencing their game (and yes they would show up in the credits, like SBI shows up in God of War Ragnarök credits)
Anyway the reasons it failed are simple.
- $40 Title vs F2P Titles.
- New IP/New Studio vs Established IPs/Established Studios.
- Boring Character Designs.
- Offers Nothing New.
- Extremely Competitive Market - Being "Okay-Good" Isn't Good Enough.
- Poor Marketing/Poor Release Timing.

- Crucible - Failed Cause Woke.
