I do wonder if all these live services were all started back when the hype for hero shooters was high. If so, boy they have issues releasing things in a reasonable timeframe.

Apparently the game started development way back in 2018, so yeah during the height of Overwatch and its ilk.

So about 8 years of development for a game that couldn't release at a worse time. So many developers need to focus on delivering games faster, even if the games end up being smaller overall.
