Even Mojang the studio behind the biggest game of all time (Minecraft) couldn't get much success from their second game Scrolls

Wdym Sony didn't advertise Concord? They went hard on it and invested heaps into marketing, they funded an animated cartoons series and an entire behind the scenes documentary about it too. It was supposed to be their biggest & best live service game that lasts the next 10yrs.

Patrolling the Mojang almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter

Yeah I don't get buddy's comment about Concord, it didn't matter how much Sony marketed their turd, they still were marketing a turd.

If they did they did really badly, the first I heard of it was when news came out it was shutting down.

Same. I was completely unfamiliar with its existence until it was already dead.

Scrolls was so good...it just game when such games were not cool to play. Now everybody would play it on their ipads etc.

The marketing hit very late. I only found out the game existed like a month before release. Even then, the biggest issue was the godawful art direction. Game was doomed no matter what thanks to unappealing character designs.

It's a desert, turns out my phone keyboard has Mojave but not Mojang in the autocorrect and it "fixed" it for me
