No bigotry of any kind allowed. Making racist, sexist, trans-/homo-/queerphobic, otherwise demeaning and hateful comments is not ok. Disabilities and mental illnesses are not to be used as insults and should not be part of your comment unless speaking of your own or absolutely relevant.

No gatekeeping and being rude to people who don't agree with you. Leave “gamer” stereotypes out of your comment (e.g. sexless, neck bearded, teenaged, basement-dwelling, etc). Don't compare people to animals, or otherwise deny their humanity. Even if you think someone is the worst human on the planet, do not wish death or harm upon them.

No "justice porn". Posts regarding legal action and similar is allowed, but celebrating someone being harmed is not.

Sony's Concord might be the biggest entertainment failure of all time, so why wasn't it news?

You hitch your pony with Sony, whomever is there when it drops gets to present it to the world unfortunately. You lose any ability to be independent and you're release ends up being remembered and known by what gets sent out.

It was lazy in the end stretch no matter how much time was sunk into it at any one time. How long was Starfield in developmen after all, it still felt lazy and so did what I saw of Concord.

Sucks to work on something and have the group you teamed up with tank the whole thing, but you still gotta know who you signed up with, and Sony was clearly done working on the project.
