In yon great expanse of entertainment known as video games doth lie a series revered by many: Dead Space. A tale of science fiction horror, it hath carved a niche all its own, distinct from the likes of Resident Evil. But alas, the gods at EA hath cast their gaze upon this beloved franchise with skepticism, as whispers abound that a proposal for Dead Space 4 hath been denied.
‘Tis a tragic tale, as relayed by the scribes at Dan Allen Gaming. The creator, Glen Schofield, alongside his loyal companions Bret Robbins and Christopher Stone, did present to EA a vision for Dead Space 4. Yet, the giants of EA didst rebuff their advances, citing lack of interest at this present moment. All was not lost, for Schofield doth maintain hope that one day, their dream may come to fruition.
In their quest for redemption, EA didst undertake a mighty task – a remake of the original Dead Space. Praises did rain down upon this endeavor, but ’twas whispered in darkened corners that the coin did not flow as freely as desired. Plans for a remake of the second chapter were cast aside, leaving fans to ponder what might have been. Schofield, seeking to reclaim former glories, didst craft a spiritual successor in The Callisto Protocol. Alas, fate proved cruel, as once more success did elude him, leading to his departure from Striking Distance Studios.
Let us not forget the fallen, the valiant warriors of Visceral Games whom EA didst shutter in the year 2017. And let us raise a glass to Motive Studio, tasked with the noble duty of resurrecting the Battlefield franchise. Verily, the path of creativity in this industry is fraught with peril and uncertainty, yet we press on with hope in our hearts and a prayer upon our lips.
