Yeah, it was an incredible game.
Let me ask a dark question.
Why do you think that game was a flop?
Not a dark question.
Just you personally, psychologically, did you have doubt about yourself from the performance of Red Guard?

Where do you get the... How do you overcome that?
No, but I mean, you love Redguard, right?
So doesn't that mean, isn't there a kind of self-doubt about, do I know what it takes to create a great game?
Right, so you were sure, even if it wasn't... Okay, so if you're going to debate, like, do I like that game?
