If anything, Geoff Keighley was certainly very excited for it, but many gamers have quite strong opinions on the veteran journalist and host's tastes, as immortalised by X (formerly Twitter) user Hatty_ (preserved by Nintendo out of Context).
In regard to Concord, ever since its demise, there has been a general malaise when it comes to online games, as the market became saturated with them as publishers scrambled to chase after Fortnite’s success.

Highguard Steam charts and player count: Is it a hit?
Whilst this seems like a fairly strong number for a game that has just released, as of writing, it has dipped down to 11,128. The peak player count was down by half at 11 PM GMT, just five hours after the game launched.
Currently, Highguard has a Mostly Negative rating on Steam, based on around 15,000 reviews. There was much ill-will towards the game on social media, and so many of these might just be in bad faith, but there is valid criticism, such as from Steam user Swervey 'Ascoobis' Doo, who wrote after 6 hours of play that "above all the game is boring," adding that "there are no NPCs to populate the maps, meaning the only engagment with the maps is looting extremely surface level loot".
Later, they edited the article to include a follow-up, saying: “I went back to see if I was being unfair, and no I was not. This is actually one of, if not the most dull multiplayer PvP game I have ever played. It got to a point where I was begging for my last game to end.”
By all accounts, when compared to Concord, Highguard is a smashing success, as Firewalk Studios’ ill-fated PvP shooter only reached a peak player count of 697 according to Steam DB.
Apex Legends, which many Wildlight Entertainment developers had worked on, reached a 24-hour peak player count of 168,512, as of writing, which is slightly lower than the usual 180,000 or so it manages.
