Honestly I feel like that’s just the gaming industry in a nutshell

Nobody forced them to spent 200 million on Concord when Bloodborne was made for less than 15 million.

In their defense, I don't think From is going to accept 15 million for another BB tho. That's going to be in the 200 mill range as well.

Still a way better investment than Concord obviously.

What's also interesting is how suddenly the hero shooter ship sailed. Highguard also failed rather spectacularly. And I'm not too confident Deadlock will ever take off, or be completed for that matter...

What they never seem to consider is; their are so many excellent live services and hero shooters already that people have poured hours (and cash) into - what does your game offer or do different that would make someone abandon that?

oh right, nothing.
