To point 2, I like to mention that Overwatch started off as a scraped game. MMO if I remember right. Oversaturated market, so they took the assets and jumped into hero shooters when the concept was fresh.
Obviously contemporary Blizzard still found a way to ruin it, but to be fair the genre more or less than it's course by then. Anyway, if Sony had an ounce of talent that old Blizzard had, they'd have done likewise.
Yeah! Project Titan or something, wasn't it?
Something along those lines, although someone with better memory might recall. I think they even had the setting sort of figured out, which kind of shows in the early lore of that game.
