No. Conduit 2's failure was intended from Sega from the start. The game was sent out to die, though i'll grant it was only so-so, it was pushed out with far less fanfare than Conduit 1, which was the inferior game by a good stretch. The fate of both games was sealed after Sega decided that The Conduit underperformed

Conduit 1 didnt perform as well as Sega wanted, which is why they didnt want to pour any money into the sequel. Lets be real here if you're publishing something and it doesnt do as well as you wanted, would you waste any time and resourses on the sequel?? Hell people should be happy the sequel even came out. THey could have pulled an EA/Mirror's Edge and just shelved the whole thing. I would bet my bottom dollar that if it wasnt for the contract, Sega wouldnt have even put it out.

Not sure where the tone is coming from. I agree with you, except perhaps in that i feel Sega's expectations might have been overly-lofty for Conduit 1, but i definitely agree that the game would have been shitcanned if it weren't for the contract

I dont have a tone at all, and i dont think Sega had lofty expectations. They put a good amount of money and advertisment into the game, alot more than most 3rd party Wii games, hell it sold less than some games that had much less attention
