Their AAA budgets were just too high for the level of sales they were getting, because that level of graphical fidelity is expensive. Crysis 3 cost them $66m to develop despite only having 23 months of development with a team of 100 people, and the sales just didn't justify that budget, which is why EA dropped them instead of funding a new AAA Crysis. Ryse ultimately failed as well due to focusing on graphics over gameplay and story. Now they are just a shell of what they once were, focusing on F2P and VR games. |
Well. Sales wise, I think Crysis 1 sold better than Crysis 3 anyway as it's still selling digitally on PC every steam sale.

It's both. They aren't mutually exclusive you know.
