Comment on Saints Row developer Volition permanently shuts down

Another victim of arrogance perhaps. Before the game even released fans told them that’s not what they want and they said “fuck you, you don’t understand shit” and proceeded to make one of the most uninteresting video games on the planet.

If Embracer Group wasn’t frantically trying to right the ship, Volition would’ve been left alone. This is on the gratuitously large capitalist conglomerate that’s bought up every studio it could.

    Volition also did this with Red Faction: Armageddon. They took everything that was good about Guerrilla, threw all of it in the bin and then made Armageddon.
    
    So Volition have form for not doing what the players want.

  Under the socialist utopia, every company would be able to make things nobody wants.
  
  Such joy.

    Ah yet another “I don’t understand socialism at all yet it’s the thing I obsess about most” stance.
