I paid good money for this Dynex!
When this cull is done, is EA going to do anything outside of sports games and maybe letting Hazelight do something every 3-5 years?

Nope. Blame BioWare for that. Wouldn't shock me to see Mass Effect get cancelled soon.
Though let's be real, EA has been looking for an excuse for a while to stop making single player games. Greedy scum sucking assholes.

That's a pity. A Black Panther take on Shadows of Mordor gameplay could have been excellent.
Why can't we get a decent, quick turnaround, AA superhero game anymore? It's not like the target audience is going to be all that worried about asset quality or game length.
EDIT: Erm, per Topher's post, maybe this isn't a great loss after all.

What exactly makes this a victory for incels?

Honestly, exploring a futuristic Wakanda could have been awesome. Not saying I'd buy it, but rental for sure.

I don't care about "incel" victories, but see my post above. Victory over racists, I'd say

Well now I understand why it was closed down.

Um, black on black violence is very high. Much more than white on black. But she's retarded so...

Probably a good call. The movies are far less popular and the IP has never been popular in the gaming space except for Rivals.

How does anyone think that is ok to say. It's like they just took statements from 1950s racist and just flipped the races.

Publishers..please.
Can we get any games, All we get are cancellations now.
Black Panther was probably cancelled due to low stocks of Woke.

Why are people hating on Wolverine game ? People hate Woverine now, what.

To think that they have IPs like Dead Space... and instead make shit like an Iron Man game... makes me angry everytime I get reminded!

There is going to be a AAA culling. At the end of the day these games are entirely too expensive, especially if they're based on existing IP. You either end up on the top or you're just not going to be viable.
There are too many games that are a least decent to compete with and consumers are only going to buy so many 70-80 dollar games. I honestly think 80-dollar games are DOA out of the gate this generation.
If you're not generating a game that is AT LEAST an 88 on metacritic as a AAA game, you might as well close shop or focus on lower priced AA games.

None of this is relevant to the Black Panther team, she was talking about her own personal studio.

Ah, so she spouted this nonsense off, and they tacitly approved by hiring her after the fact.

You think she changed when she got the Black Panther gig?
I'd say its very relevant.

It really doesn't matter because she's a singular person on a team of hundreds of other people. There is no proof that the entire team at Cliffhanger shared her beliefs.

The next one is Iron Man I assume, which is the game that Dead Space 2 Remake wasted on...

Eh, it speaks to the character of people that were being hired at Cliffhanger.
What you're saying is like saying Bungie shares no blame for Marathon's art-theft fiasco because only one of their employees were caught doing it and there's no proof that the rest of Bungie was stealing.
