I mean, do you not think so? What's your thinking there?

it's different yeah i don't know um a couple things so first of all i think what one of the reasons that it's like this game it doesn't seem to me to be that shocking a story is because i feel like everybody knew that was what was going to happen like i feel like as soon as that game was announced it was kind of dead on arrival with that that trailer that kind of

What was it, that restaurant CGI teaser trailer where they're doing the quips and it feels like Guardians of the Galaxy and then actually it's a PvP shooter and everyone's just like, what is going on here? I feel like from the get-go, people were just like, what is this? Are people really going to play it?

It's also called Concord, which I feel like you're destined to fail if you call yourself Concord. The other thing is that I've talked to a couple of people who worked on the game and from what I've gathered talking to them, while I'm sure the details are a little bit different, it's kind of the same story that it often is.

It's the same story as Anthem and Suicide Squad and Redfall and all these games where it's just like people at the top, maybe at the top of the studio, maybe at the publisher, maybe both chasing a trend, a live service trend often.

um other like not being able to get it together running into the kind of classic game development struggles engine struggles technical struggles creative direction struggles maybe people at the top not being willing or able to make decisions or good decisions and it's just kind of this clash of like game development being really hard and trend chasing and never really having a coherent vision in the first place that makes people want to care about this thing

And it just seems like a kind of classic story. Like, I don't feel like the story behind the game is all that different than the stories behind a lot of other disasters.

Don't get me wrong.

Don't get me wrong.

Yes, the fact that they pulled it after two weeks as opposed to a Suicide Squad where at least they gave it a year.

So I guess what I would say, the way I would phrase it is that like the outcome of it, the results of it are fascinating and phenomenal. But the story behind it, I don't know if it's all that interesting. Because it is what it is.

And as far as like a book or even a feature story that I work on, I try to think about like the process of it all and the story behind it as opposed to just the ultimate outcome.
