Destruction Allstars | Review Thread

One thing to note about this game is how ugly the character designs are overall.

Something it had in common with Concord.
 
So this game lasted for 5 years?

Thats pretty impressive. I just found out about it and I bought the ps5 on launch.
 
I have the physical version of this game. I believe I purchased it at launch and, like with the majority of Sony exclusives this gen, still haven't touched it once.
 
There's some strong Concord energy with some of these.

Is it possible Concord wasn't actually the first Sony game in the Concord verse?
Not a Sony game, but Ninja Theory's Bleeding Edge was patient zero for aggressively fugly character designs.
It had it all, representation for everything. Unsurprisingly BE ceased development after half a year'ish, before Allstars launched.

It's funny. When MS bought Ninja Theory I thought they wanted to turn them into their own version of a Sony studio. Have them make these big AAA cinematic games in the style of TLOU and Gow2018.

Instead it went the other way around, Sony for some reason became obsessed with making their own Bleeding Edge lol

Man, what a generic, lukewarm and utterly "meh" game Bleeding Edge was, the kind of game that genuinely makes you wonder who, in their right mind, looked at it and thought "Yeah, this is perfectly acceptable as a finished product."

Then again, it was a Ninja Theory game - one of the studios with the most consistently mediocre output in the industry right alongside Double Fine.

Honestly, I still don't quite understand how either of them are still in business.
 
Looks like they included one obligatory "normal looking white guy with broccoli hair".

Wouldn't be surprised if he was the most popular character.

This dude was the most popular for the Concord beta (sorry Daw)

I swear it takes a "special" kind of talent to make such lame characters.
A truly rotten mental state.
 
This was pretty much the beginning of Sony's live service obsession for this generation. It was the canary in the coal mine.
