    So to recap:

    • 200 million dollars
    • 8 years of development
    • Sony shuts down all of their Japanese studios and redirects their efforts into developing “cinematic” experiences to appeal to western gamers
    • Sony liquidates countless other studios in the pursuit of funding this game
    • Sony buys Bungie to aid in developing this game
    • Sony thinks this is going to be a huge success rivaling COD and Fortnite, so they fund an entire multimillion dollar CGI-animated episode to be aired in Amazon’s Secret Level anthology series
    • Shuts down in 10 days
    • Sony refunds everyone

    Man, Sony is taking L’s like a motherfucker.
