    When I see a new company formed, raising $100M, touting how it’s led by some big name you’ve heard of from some different studio years ago, the odds are against it. This game had only barely started development when we saw a CG announcement trailer. Hudson doesn’t want to spend 5 to 7 years developing it, but I noticed he didn’t rule out 4 years, which is still a long time for a brand new studio.

    From experience, don’t get your hopes up for this game. If it doesn’t get cancelled before it’s finished, it’s unlikely to blow your mind. Starting a new studio with a project this big has historically not worked out most of the time.
