The corporate, “indefinite hiatus” talk is always exhausting, but stuff like this makes me see why they do it. It’s gutting, but probably for the best, to hear it so unapologetic as “early development on the next Mass Effect project is ending”. If by some miracle it gets picked up or sold, it’s not like it’ll be less exciting; probably more, if we’re being honest.
A few ex-BioWare legends have started studios; whether it’s with them or not, I hope the people losing their jobs have connections and at least support eachother like this says they will. I can’t imagine just putting all that art in the shredder like that after spending half a decade on it
