Sony funded and founded the studio, however, sony is not a monolithic abstract entity, within the organisation there are people who make decisions. Whoever made the decision to produce Concord as a premium game instead of F2P needs to get their head examined. Also, most in-house developed games at sony get very little oversight from corporate other than the occasional vertical slice demo.

What the Sony gaming division needs is to pivot back to filling their roster with Japanese and European talent, the california move is resulting in overwhelming enshitification. Holst is up to his head in shitty US office politics and career driven useless MBAs that are ruining the company from the inside out by focusing on abstract metrics and driving the generational know how away from the company. They need to GTFO of San Mateo, Yesterday!
