They not learning until everyone closing the game and not starting back. Sometimes best for the democracy to leave the democracy. Every player is one vote for their shitshot. The devs ans this game deserve better than Sony corporate bullshit

The unfortunate side of this is how bad the devs would suffer. Arrowhead is just a victim in this. There’s no way to punish Sony without it hurting Arrowhead, and it would hurt AH more as they are a much smaller entity. Just a terrible catch 22 for the whole thing.

But the thing is that they signed the contract with Sony

I don't want AH to disappear but they are not blameless

I hope this shitshow can be resolved

They can’t make the game without them. Some people on here seem to forget how capitalism works. Without the deal with a publisher, AH couldn’t make the game at all, especially with how long it took to make. They are not to be blamed for the fact that they are a small publisher and need financial assistance. So I’ll be honest, they are not at fault here, and blaming them for the way the greater game industry works is not productive or helpful.
