200 million sounds like a lot, but it's like 2 weeks of PSPlus money.

For all this losing, they're sure making a lot of money. Just not out of this game.

And that money ain't gone yet, there's for sure a pivot towards a F2P, MTX ridden version of the game to be relaunched.

The problem is that gamers say they don't like that sort of thing, while the success of the likes of Fortnite indicates that there's a lot of gamers out there saying nothing, but buying V-bucks like a motherfucker.
