canceling at 80% sounds harsh, but live service is basically a long-term commitment, not just a launch

[JanEmil]

Have to admit I was looking forward to see the game

[The_Walking_Dead]

Live service gamble strikes again .

[BrutalAge*gofast]

Better to kill it early than bleed later.

[Patapim]

Studios finally choosing focus over hype.

[Capybara_Capybara]

[UndeadBeastMonkeykiller]

[9777089235]

[059d96d16a]

Live service = commitment, not experiment.

[ChewBeast]

Hype cycle vs reality again

[GummyBear]
