Does Cliff Bleszinski Understand Why LawBreakers Bombed?

The game designer published an Instagram post suggesting "hackey politics" contributed to the game's failure. But it's simpler than that.

Clearly he does not.

I don't think he's 'Woke' enough.

Yeah, Apex is "woke" af and it's huge. It always felt like Lawbreakers bombed because of Cliff. But really I think it didn't capture attention and they didn't have enough faith in it to work on it and make it better over time. A lot of the top MP games right now didn't necessarily launch well but they just grinded their way to the top.

It bombed because there were no chainsaws.

His ego doesn't allow him to understand that.

He tried to go against Blizzard with a hero shooter that had practically zero marketing. He could've given it away for free and failed. Is he really so myopic as to think it's because he injected "woke" politics into it? I didn't even know it had any politics in it. Maybe start with how nobody knew much about it.

I personally found the art, premise and gameplay concept boring. I think most people did.
