Title: Death of a Game - YouTube Series
Post by: Spectere on August 20, 2017, 10:15:29 PM
I came across a few videos by the YouTuber nerdSlayer regarding the deaths of various games and game companies (including Hellgate London, APB, Global Agenda, etc). Seems like the guy definitely does his homework for every episode, and some of the things that are revealed are pretty interesting stuff. I recommend checking it out:

The average length of the videos in this series are right around the 30-40 minute mark.

I am actually quite a fan of his channel. I got into it with warhammer online (probably my favorite mmo that died too soon), but yeah, glad to see him continuing to kick out more content.

I'm planning to watch that video next! The Warhammer universe always seemed like a natural fit for the genre to me, so I'm very curious to see what ultimately did it in.

The first video in the series that I watched was the Global Agenda one. That game was...uh, kind of a mess.
