When put like that, pretty upsetting to hear. Nex Machina was so damn good
It's a shame, because everyone played, and I think many really loved Resogun. I suspect they would have hoped they would transition to their other titles.
Alienation I think performed quite well though, with 400k sales before it released on Playstation plus. I think it's a bit of a shame that they didn't double down on that direction. I liked Alienation, and the fact that it blended the fast paced arcade shooting and particles with genre staples more typical of action RPGs, such as loot and open areas to explore.
I wish they doubled down on that direction.
In a sense, that's kind of what they're doing with Returnal. It intentionally blurs genre boundaries presumably in an effort to get people to engage with that old school arcade style gameplay, but within a different framework. In this case, it's a third person shooter and roguelike.
