Hey, if they're actually securing funding for this instead of pushing the cost off onto eager fans, good for them. At least they're doing one thing right. Unfortunately that only increases the potential for this to turn into a trash fire that sinks their whole company.

Hopefully it doesn't come to that.

The potential for this project to sink their whole company would come from them being extremely reckless with the ample cash flow they've got right now, which this interview says they're not, and hopefully they mean it. I don't get the sense they're trying to build an Immortals of Aveum or a Callisto Protocol.
