Such crazy mismanagement from Playatation. I put emphasis on PlayStation because they should have the experience to properly direct an inexperienced studio.
GOW Live service shouldn't of been greenlit, especially not from such an inexperienced studio given how demanding and complex live service is.
Sony have a whole catalogue of games with the potential to update/upgrade. A Jack and Daxter remake/reboot would of been right down their alley and it would fit comfortably in Sonys family/adventure catalogue (Ratchet/Astrobot).
We still don't know the nuances but it sounds like they were just left to their devices and then Sony was unsatisfied with what they came up with. Was there a project Playstation suggested/wanted them to work on?
It's like they never had a plan for them to begin with. If their plan was for the studio to create original content, that content would of have to start small. |
That's the major issue.
It's great Sony lets their studios work on what they want if it sounds good enough, but how can you buy a studio and don't have any actual plans to deal with it? What was the reason you even got them? Make them do that if they are failing to do something on their own.
How can closing down a studio you just bought and didn't release one game be the best option? It's your money, your decision to buy them, it's ridiculous Sony doesn't have enough vision about such a purchase to even try something else.
