    He nailed himself when he took people’s money, spent all his energy on the “game bible,” and then promised he would make a game he did not have authority to make. It’s not like it was a surprise to him. He’s the victim of his own decisions ultimately here.

    Alice was a cool game. The 2nd one was…we can say good. He got two at-bats for the game, it never took off, the second sold particularly poorly. The cult following isn’t enough and frankly he has demonstrated very little of what would make this new game so special. He had one cult hit almost 25 years ago and ansolid but not special, kind of buggy follow-up. I just think this entire project is all audience hype at this point.

      I mean, I get it. Its a cool idea, a cool world, and its his brain child.

      Tbh its kinda bullshit he cant make a game for a world EA will literally never ever ever use. Theyve just shoved it as far up their own asses and plan on keeping it there.

      Id rather a shitty 3rd game than never getting another shot at a cool world.
