Both were live service; one at Bend, one at Bluepoint. Bluepoint was helping work on God of War: Ragnarok until 2022, at which point they were developing this now-cancelled God of War live service game.

They were shoveling money down the tube for a game that you literally couldn't play due to how few people there were.

I played a dead MMO where i was the only person in the game. They where shutting down the servers soon and it was an interesting experience. The game wasn't bad honestly. As a single player experience at least. Maybe that was the issue.

It had matchmaking so if there weren't enough players it would take a long time and you'd end up in the same lobbies with the same players every time, if you could even get in apparently. Not like you could play solo even if you wanted to.
