PotentHerbs said: The only studio I think Sony could regret shutting down would be Evolution. They would've had another live service game in a genre they currently lack that could be adapted to VR. They check all sorts of boxes in terms of what Sony is trying to do currently. |
Yep, even though Driveclub had delays and reception was a little subpar, it still had a good impact and sales that would justify Sony investing more on covering the shortcomings than cutting the studio.
I would also say that in hindsight if Sony knew MS would start the big purchases in near future they wouldn't have closed any of those studios (they are basically even rebuying a studio they closed on the Psygnosis case).
