My understanding of Realtime Worlds (hence the name) and All Points Bulletin is that management were far too ambitious. All Points Bulletin, one of the more expensive games made even to date, was actually only a side project - a tailored-down, "get to market" attempt at shoveling a product out the door to fund a ludicrous "reality simulator" pipe dream. It showed, as conceptually the game could have been good but it felt completely unfinished to play and was critically panned.
