We needed a Twisted Metal game with BAZZ as one of the key characters.
Bringing BAZZ to other games would have been simple, they just failed to see the potential.
it's crazy that 4chan is the only place that thinks about this shit product at all. the people who actually played it likely couldn't tell you anything about it however historically and anthropologically some guy who never even touched a playstation on /v/ will have some encyclopedic knowledge of not only bazz but concord as a product and it's bizarre series of events. dare I say ludo kino harmony?
>>725348165
it's kind of wild. even without these threads popping up once a month or even less I think about concord a lot. It's like they threw all this money into products thinking kamala was such a sure bet for the 2024 election or something. what a fucking time to be alive.
Could we use AI to make concord stronger? not gayer? maybe even fun?
>>725348460
no no no hear me out. >grok show me a sora ai video of concord but everyone is a hot anime girl with huge tits >also it's a fully playable videogame >it can run on anything with graphics like old school runescape >also it plays like uhh monster hunter, halo 2, has timed hits, rpg elements, the opponents clothes get blown away to show health loss, and you rape your opponents before they can respawn
wtf bros? I might have just saved concord
>>725348298 >start production in 2016, Trump is president >begin making a normal hero shooter >2020, Biden wins >oh shit bros, DEI won, identity politics won, we gotta pivot >2022, full production >lean hard on black trans overweight polyamorous demisexual characters with vitiligo >only show that, "this will sell our game" >2024 >Trump reelected >major backlash against that shit >no game to show, just diverse characters >flop city
What a ride

Apparently they have an thing about comedy based around a comically ugly or grotesque character and Bazz landed straight in that territory for them.
>>725349154 >I'm mad that the political game matching my politics failed because politics shifted against me and now if you mention that the game was political I'll pretend it was never political and I was never into it for the politics
Sluuuuuuuuurp
>>725348746 >wording and shit straight from google ai >trump reelected months after it was already shut down long before your retarded ass head canon
the game was shit but holy hell kys poltard
>>725352610
ok fair, bazz does look like alessi but the design, especially how its animated and characterized by people, reminds me more of one piece or some other manga
>>725349164
It is a glorious part of the story, but it is now a computer legend like Atari ET, and the aftermath of the fall of Bungie is still to come.
>>725347173
it looks like eddie murphy. is that why it is so famous >>725348110
you just don't live down the title of absolute worst dogshit there is. it's the kind of shit that sticks with you forever

kek, I'm glad police camera got more popular and now there's several channels dedicated to them, I must have watched police activity for 10 years.

i think the point was that a lot of these games went into production in 2020 (when gaming stocks peaked) riding a lot of retarded social politics ideas and by the time everyone regained their senses it was too late to change course.
Imo that's probably why Gta VI keeps getting delayed too

Bazz is like the devs tried to cram every “edgy but marketable” design trope into one character and ended up with a melted Funko Pop dipped in Hot Topic. It’s so bad it loops back to being iconic. He doesn’t fit in anywhere, and yet now I want to see him in Smash just to hear Sakurai explain what the hell he is.
>>725348110 >it's crazy that 4chan is the only place that thinks about ET for the Atari at all. the people who actually played it likely couldn't tell you anything about it however historically and anthropologically some guy who never even touched a retro console let alone an emulator on /v/ will have some encyclopedic knowledge of not only the ET game as a product but the entire bizarre series of events surrounding it
>>725348110
Honestly I consider Bazz an unforgettable character if only because his backstory is so fucking retarded it's hilarious >the whole reason he's an expert at knife combat is because he spent years opening fucking cardboard boxes like some fucking wax on wax off bullshit >the whole reason he became a merc is because he was all set to inherit some massive company but his grandpa doesn't want a female heir and while he would have inherited the company he became a womenx and now his grandpa won't let him inherit the company. Devs expect you to feel bad for Bazz and consider his grandpa an evil transphobe despite the fact that he's basically acknowledging Bazz's gender identity by refusing to let him inherit the company due to identifying as a woman
It's basically the perfect cocktail of a retarded power fantasy and tranny entitlement.

the sad part of studios finally killing DEI initiatives is we are getting less flopkino to laugh at. we've had nothing since zestynigga greed
>>725366820 >the sad part of studios finally killing DEI initiatives
DEI initiatives won't die until every AAA studio dies. They're basically run by fucking retards who are incapable of understanding that DEI is what's killing them. They just assume that they just don't have enough DEI bullshit in their games and they just need to push for more.
It's like watching a fucking retard trying to drink rat poison to cure a disease and just assuming the reason he's getting sicker is because he isn't drinking enough rat poison and just needs to drink more.

execs only care about money. they don't care about the game, whether it's enjoyable, or its legacy. to them, devs are just grunts to be ordered around
they adopt this DEI shit because it's free money: low-interest loans, better ratings by hedgefunds and other financial institutions leading to more foreign investor money, grant money, some roastie sham consultant extorsioning them with calling the game racist, etc.
