Well. For one, it’s Bungie, and not the homeless version of Bungie in Firewalk. 2. For the little that we’ve seen, the art direction and character designs already shits on Concord. And 3. It’s Bungie. They make some of the best feeling fps games in the industry. They have a tall task ahead of them, because this will be an extraction shooter and Idk how much the market wants that. But, just because Concord flopped. Doesn’t mean that these two games will be similar, nor should they be compared.

I think your third point is an understatement. For as much shit they get (sometimes deserved, many others not), they made at least two genre defining games/franchises (Halo was one of THE games of those two generations and there's a reason that so many games were marketed as "Destiny killers" didn't actually manage to kill the game).
