"early development" on Mass Effect? No wonder all these studies keep getting shut down.

That game should be ready to be released within the next two years, not still be in early development.

Getting out of early development has been the problem for at least 3 of their games of we include this. 2 others were Anthem and Andromeda, they had bad project leadership.

I mean, maybe you want an iota of creativity in the triple A industry instead of sequels and remakes? Sometimes a bet doesn't pay off, it happens.

Anthem had the bones, I think the team didn't have the skill to do it. And I don't mean technical.

I'll stand by that.

Yep, it missed the mark and it cost them dearly, but it had potential, it just lacked vision and the X factor.
