Why wasn't it worth finishing the game in their pipeline? If it's mostly developed and they treat sunk costs as sunk costs isn't it basically throwing away money to cancel something that's pretty far along in development?
- saraid216 14y agoI'm... not sure you understand how the sunk cost fallacy works... If anything, what they did was the rational decision.
- lwat 14y agoIf it's gonna cost X to finish the game and they expect to make more than X from selling the game, then they should finish it. The amount spent to date is irrelevant.
- saraid216 14y agoThe current history of video game sales expectations has been "expected too much", "expected too much", and "expected too much". I'm willing to bet that they did not expect to make more than X by selling the game.
