>>750145950Most of Sony and Microsoft's western 1st party studios seem to be on thin ice.
Probably will survive as a skeleton crew and only provide technical assistance to others if asha is feeling generous.
>>750146051this
>>750145950>this is their game listHow the fuck are they still alive?
>>750145950Instead of letting these projects balloon towards ridiculous costs that take the better part of a decade, why don't the publishers just rule them with an iron fist?Give the developers 1 year to make a functional product, then 1 more year to make it pretty. A max headcount for the entire studio set during the first planning meeting. No new roles, all hires must be replacements. Monthly checkups and If results aren't satisfactory then the entire team gets axed immediately.Sure it might not result in some absolutely amazing generation-defining epics, but neither is blowing half a billion on a fucking Gears prequel. It'd certainly be a lot more profitable.
>>750146378Because phil spencer was retarded.
>>750146378The Xbox and PS divisions don't have tardwranglers anymore.
>>750145950>fire the writing team>keep the gameplay team>decanonize all modern games>do a reboot starting at the end of the third gameIt's the only way to save the franchise at this point but it's not gonna happen...
>>750146095They've been popping out games consistently, unless they've been sales failures, there's no reason to kill them, we'd need to see, though, how sales are faring for this last one, because even with all the shilling I don't think people are going in droves to play it.
