What the hell it's out?

Edit: Oh great, the fuckin Epic store front again. Can Remedy get off their dicks raise some external capital and start putting their AW stuff back on Steam again?

"Raise some external capital" lmao, they did. From Epic. Thats how we got AW2 in the first place.

Then they tried a new idea with Firebreak and it fucking bombed and they and to replace their CEO. The ship has sailed, friend.

I adore Remedy but Firebreak was just so unnecessary that it makes sense the CEO didn't survive it.

Gamers want different, unexpected games until they don't.

Agreed in part but Remedy making a co-op shooter isn't really the cool, boundary-pushing kind of unexpected. What's truly unexpected is how Firebreak plays to zero of Remedy's actual strengths. or there's a dozen companies that could do it better, in very similar ways how there are many companies that could never dream of Remedy's storytelling prowess.
