“We’re probably only going to make some of the money with this project. We’d much rather make ALL of the money. So instead, we’ll take none of the money; project cancelled.” - An EA exec, probably

This seems like a good entry point for new folks to the series. Ignore the vocal minority who are whining because they can’t put their Lairon in the game. 

is it difficult being this boring of a person

Wow people here are assholes for some reason. This is a super fun write-up, I like the idea that professional photographers can find a neat and productive angle to play video games that I had never thought of before. I don’t have the patience or aesthetic eye to ever spend much (if any) time in some of the amazing…

“Gravity is a harness,” Sigma says in the trailer. “I have harnessed the harness.”
