Less employees while making two games equals failure
Bungie has to decide which game to focus on.
The new game that their current writers have made from the ground up or the franchise they’ve struggled to write a consistent story and has been rife with self-inflicted since inception?
When the next Episode doesn’t sell and has low engagement, that’s the axe for the franchise.
And considering how it’ll mostly tie off the remaining major plot points…
The third episode will be the last of Destiny.
Enjoy the fire!

9 RepliesLet me explain something VERY clearly, because everyone is missing this point. 850 employees (the remainder after the cuts) is A LOT to work on two games. Digital Extremes (who make Warframe and soon Soulframe) have just over 300 Zenimax Online Studios (who make Elder Scrolls Online and are currently working on a 'new AAA IP' ) have just over 670 (a small chunk of which actually came from another company that shut down) Both of those other two are owned (or at least share controlled) by much larger, profit driven companies. Both of those companies have successfully delivered on a single, live service game for (roughly the same number of) years with fewer staff and suffering less financial impact while at the same time handling other projects. It isn't a numbers problem, it's a quality issue...
