- Concord fans have been bashing Marvel Rivals online due to its success.
- They claim Concord to be more fun than Rivals and wonder why the latter lives when the former dies.
- The subreddit is full of Concord fans, and some of their claims seem outrageous.
Concord, released last year, was arguably one of the most controversial releases of all time. Sony released this live service game for $40 when there were already similar hits like Overwatch and Valorant.
To no one’s surprise, it became the biggest failure in gaming history, reportedly costing $400 million to develop. The game launched to even 10 times fewer players than Redfall on Steam, highlighting what a failure it was.
That said, it still seems to have a fandom that isn’t happy with Marvel Rivals’ success.
Why it matters: Concord fans are calling out Marvel Rivals, claiming it to be not fun. They think that the former had better gameplay, which a massive fandom seems to disagree with. There is a reason why one of the two games is highly successful.
Mike_nova on Reddit posted a thread asking about Concord fans’ impressions of Marvel Rivals. To this, the top comment bashes the game, implying it doesn’t deserve the hype at all.
It plays nothing like Concord. I personally don’t like the movement or shooting at all and don’t get all the hype and praise its getting. If you want similar gameplay to Concord Destiny 2 is your best bet but the PvP in that game is basically unplayable unfortunately but the PvE is still good.

Some Marvel Rivals fans have replied and asked users whether they have actually played the game as it has attracted a massive fandom, and they find it appealing. More Concord fans are complaining in the comments, asking why it had to die while the Rivals get to live.
The user even claims Marvel Rivals to be not as fun as Concord by a long shot and adds that they hate this timeline.
Users complaining about how Concord should have lived have been trolled in the comments. However, it shows they aren’t happy with the recent Marvel FPS hero shooter.
Marvel Rivals masterfully gets what Concord couldn’t manage to, which is exactly why it launched to nearly 500K concurrent players on Steam. Even Overwatch hit its all-time low following the game’s release, meaning the developer did something right to engage the fandom.
