I hate the trend of "former developers of popular game company make new things". A game is more than just a handful of the devs that worked on it, and bears no influence on whether or not anything they create in the future will be good.

Kinda like how Back 4 Blood was never meant as a follow up to Left 4 Dead, just a generic zombie shooter...

Then they realized they had ONE GUY who worked on Left 4 Dead, not even in a leadership or management role, meaning they could legally market it as "From the creators of Left 4 Dead", game wasn't even called "Back 4 Blood" till they realized that

Yep, what a disappointing game that was too. I got to the end and was shocked that was it lol
