I totally agree with what you’re saying, the very very simplistic and juvenile “go woke go broke” narrative often overlooks actual things that cause products to fail in the market.
As an aside, I found the character designs in Concord, at least the ones I’ve seen, actually really cool personally. Reminded me a lot of a sort of Kim Jung Gi street/comic style, and wasn’t as cliche as all the rest.
“Concord”'s character designs were definitely the least of the game’s problems, but - of course - it was what the far-right latched onto. After all, they rarely ever engage with anything beyond the mere surface level.
