[QUOTE="Admin, post: 60965, member: 1"] Paradox Interactive has called The Lamplighters League a "big disappointment" as the company has been forced to record a $22 million write-down. Revealed on [URL='https://www.paradoxinteractive.com/media/press-releases/press-release/paradox-interactive-writes-down-msek-171-of-capitalized-development-cost-for-the-lamplighters-league']the company's website[/URL], the write-down of 248 million Swedish Krona, or roughly $22.7 million, is essentially Paradox admitting it won't make its money back on The Lamplighters League. "The Lamplighters League is a fun game with many strengths. Even though we see cautiously positive player numbers in subscription services, the commercial reception has been too weak, which is frankly a big disappointment," said Paradox CEO Fredrik Wester. Game projects are by their nature always risky, but at the end of the day we haven’t performed at the level we should. "Game projects are by their nature always risky, but at the end of the day we haven’t performed at the level we should. It is painful but makes us more eager to roll up our sleeves and do better." The Lamplighters League launched October 3 as [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/the-lamplighters-league-blends-stealth-xcom-combat-and-a-ritzy-1930s-aesthetic']a mix of stealth gameplay and XCOM-style combat in a ritzy 1930's aesthetic[/URL].
