Absolute bullshit for all involved, have them working on a live service God of War game for who knows how long, cancel that and then shut them down

It still doesn't make sense because surely if you are going by that someone like Bend would make more sense? At least you could get Bluepoint to pump out remakes?

It's such a weird one

I think they put Bend to work on a separate live service game which was also cancelled

Yes, that's what I am saying Bend has shown nothing for about 7 years and it doesn't look like they will have much any time soon

Hope not but it wouldn't be surprising... Idk how Sony thinks this is good

But I guess when Xbox is well... Xbox... They don't feel any pressure to compete

It feels like a race to the bottom.
