@BluDYT@csolisr @JakeEddyCarp They own the licenses to the game only. Not his name. In fact, they haven't had any type of working relationship since 2018.
@Complex What's disturbing is that not only did someone at @Complex think that this was newsworthy, but there's someone out there who genuinely thinks that this is real.
Tom Clancy's XDefiant looks to be as much Tom Clancy as Metal Gear Survive is Metal Gear. Still don't know how the game plays, but companies like Ubisoft need to understand that these titles & labels mean something to people, and shoehorning them never creates positive fanfare.
@iamleonardwu The only downside with Ryuzo being killed off, is that @SuckerPunchProd could've used Ryuzo's entire ordeal for a spin off storyarc. I think people would've appreciated the character more if they understood the situations he really faced. Like walking a mile in his shoes.
