Can we talk about player count? (Gaming)

My concern is for Bungie.

It has nothing to do with the quality of Marathon itself. Sony has been laying off staff and shutting down games and studios at an alarming pace. Just this last week or so, I saw that they closed Bluepoint Games, who made one of THE best remasters ever released on par with Capcom's Resident Evil remakes.

The trend is clear: Sony wants breakout hits. Modest successes are seen as failures to them. Studios that fail to deliver breakout hits get hit.
