It'll be pretty easy to play this game for free. Just sign up for the game pass 2 week trial and then immediately cancel. The game is only 6 hours. That's what I'm gonna do.
Ninja Theory co-founder has left the studio
- Thread starter Fenton
- Start date
He left years ago apparently & was only involved with the early stages of hellblade 2 , don't know why it's only being reported now
He left with hush money then lol
Sold the studio with the shitty IPs, and fucking bounced
Edit : He looks like he's pushing 60, good for him to cash out

That explains why the studio is trash.
The last game I played from them was DmC and it sucked.
He is the director and writer of the game.
To me he still shows up as director and writer of Hellblade 2 everywhere.
You can also see him on all the behind the scene stuff directing and even holding the camera.
'According to Polygon, he was involved in the early stages of Hellblade 2, but the game is now being led by three creative leads'
Yea if he is leaving the studio now the game is being lead by somebody else...
Something ain't right about this story. Right before shipping they replace the director/writer of the game and founder of the studio?
I'm wondering if this ain't getting the Redfall treatment of being pushed out of the door as is.
You'd say the next one to leaver or get fired would be Aaron Greenberg. But no, I see Todd Howard leaving before.
As reference, the last time Hermen tweeted was back in the Japanese Jim Ryan goodbye party with Yamauchi & Kutaragi + visit to Kojima + visit to Team Asobi.
He hasn't posted in Instagram since over half a year ago.
It comes out next month & it's been in development for like 7 years so I wouldn't call it early stages if he was involved up until just now lol

He shows up on their official channel acting as a director on videos promoting the game that were published less than a year ago lol
So either polygons got it wrong or dudes just been sat doing nothing after writing it (won't have taken that long to write it with it being so short lol)
Probably had a deal with Microsoft that he can only leave once HellBlade 2 is done.
Most probably had a deal with Microsoft that he will leave once Hellblade 2 is done.
Would look bad if the co founder simply took half the acquisition money and left.
