The question here is how good is this game really? Is the game just to weird to attract main stream gamers? only time will tell I guess, but as others pointed out, that studio hasn't got a good track record with previous games. But then again so do a lot of studios before they have that ONE break out game that puts them on the map. Once they reach that goal, publishers are more whilling to take a bigger gamble with that dev and give them bigger budgets. |
That's a big part of it too; a lot of self-described "hardcore" players will run a mile from its cheesy presentation, while on the other hand its too complex for more casual gamers. It's audience it limited out of the gate by its design choices. (Not that that makes it bad, just niche)
