Circling the drain....

What do you think it will take for them to go under, one more flop or two more?

I know, right? Only 4 choices? As a genderfluid otherkin, do they really expect me to seriously check any of these boxes?

ac black flag resync'd has sold incredibly well, hitting the top 10 YTD for 2026 games. whatever bullshit gay jogger slop they put out as their next game will flop badly though, and the only re-remaster they have left that can sell well is the Ezio trilogy. I don't think far cry, remaster or new, would sell well either.

the only thing they can do is sell the IPs to china who will restart assassins creed and far cry.

I just don't get how these retarded companies cannot spin off a small 25 person studio to create the bones of these massive titles to see if they are any good before committing to them.

the mass effect 5 team was just 50 people, which makes me wonder what the fuck the other 350 people at bioware were doing. probably cleaning each others tranny holes

I am sure they did - and the Saudi's saw the bullshit that the devs and producers on Veilguard and ME:A were peddling for ME5 and decided the brand was now too tainted and the entire studio was untrustworthy as well as incompetent. Clean the house. And as always - the devs that did this to themselves, rather than take accountability, don't, and blame "evil corporation" and victimize themselves in one massive pity party rather than take accountability, shut the fuck up, and learn. This is the liberal left way of life now.

Maybe they can all go talk to their therapists who will "Validate" their feelings in their miserable bubble of delusion.

Yeah, Dragon Age Veilguard 'came out' almost exactly two years ago.

What the hell were they doing for that long, and why did EA's executive suite give them that much rope? The least ridiculous thing I can come up with is the buyout talk had started much earlier than publicly admitted, and EA thought it would help their sell price to have as many functioning studios as possible.

Then again, why the Saudis wanted anything other than Sports, Sims, and Dice is beyond me.
