They were kind of sabotaged. Who thought it would be a good idea to make a game about golumn? Like why not make a game about a hobbit instead if you have to make a LOTR non-violence game?
Yes! A Hobbit farming sim. Imagine getting to design your own hobbit hole and farm? Id buy a game like that.
A 3d srardew valley style game where you play as a Hobbit would be just… Sooooo good. Nice
The in game potatoes can have the tooltip description, “Po-tay-toes, boil 'em, mash 'em, stuck 'em in a stew.”

just think of all the money that this game had poured into it…and the failure is why the Embracer Group (THQNordic) is cancelling games and re-prioritizing it’s studios.
I’m gonna be livid if my Deus Ex Reboot / 3rd sequel got cancelled because of this…
Is a new Deus Ex game confirmed? Because I have heard absolutely nothing about that and was under the impression they were done with the series.
Embracer / THQNordic mentioned last year they had interest and basically wanted to do where cyberpunk failed expectations
God, that’d be amazing but I’ve been burned so many times in the past that I can’t hold my breath.
