Is this the fastest video game death of all time? Not even Lawbreakers died this fast.

People paid for that original game too, it wasn’t free. I don’t assume they got refunded. It was basically a massive bait and switch.
I was a sucker and my friend convinced me to get and pay for the orginal game. I think it was only like 3-4 weeks after the game was available when they shoehorned battle royal mode in. It wasn't long after that before they switched to free to play and gave us I think in game currency that was worth the $60 or whatever the game costed at launch. I stopped playing altogether because I paid for a co-op PvE tower defense game, not a free to play PvP battle royal game.
Yea I recall it being like 20 something. That's why I never pre-order. Without having poof I would assume they got refunded if it stopped development, it's epic games. I do recall it did get released eventually but I had lost interest by them.
