I don't think Veilguard ever recouped the investment it had into it.
I heard from people on yt/twitter ect, it was down like 150-200m.
Like if a game, losses you upto $200m.... "selling well" is a spectrum.
It didn't do well enough.
The thing is, most people could see this a mile away.
Most expected this outcome. I myself was in those threads back then, saying this was going to flop.
The hookwink (it was marketed/previewed with trailers much differnt from the end results), of the gameplay/story/elements....
and the controversy around Taash and all the woke elements in it.
Alot of the core fans didn't want to see the game turn out that way.
This is what happens when businesses turns its back to its consumer base.
When you have devs come out and say they "hate gamers" ect.
It costs you in the sales department.
And ultimately any game studio that cannot support itself,.... is at risk of getting shut down.
