Microsoft : "so why should we hand you a bag of money to make this game?"
Obsidian : "we dont know anymore"

Microsoft : "funds are cut"


Im fine with this. Why waste money on a project people dont believe in?

Where did you get that from?  That's not what this article is saying, did it come from somewhere else?

Isnt that what they said?

They didnt have a person that could adovate for why they should continue to get money to fund the project.

They didnt have that 1 guy that believed in the project, when it needed it, and could say so to the people that held the money to make it.

 

"there has to be someone at the publisher" who can defend the project and assure the higher-ups the game is going to be good. In the case of Stormlands, unfortunately, Obsidian didn't have someone like that to champion the game at Microsoft."

^ from the OP.

Or is the "someone at the publisher" a Microsoft guy? Did microsoft just not believe in Obsidian and then shut down the project?
