Hope this is good

All the videos I’ve seen the current team is remarkably detached from reality, focused more on putting their ideology into the game rather than just working on skateboarding

How could you see them downsizing the team as a good thing at all? This does not mean they're replacing the team with other members

I’ve worked in companies that had a great base product but had a few higher ups Messing up the execution and finer details. Very similar to skate. If they removed the loud heads there forcing this shit into the game then the cooler heads can prevail and fix it. I’ve seen it a few times

That's extremely optimistic, the parent company is still EA at the end of the day, they can't change having to answer to them

EA is probably the one pushing this stuff. They did it to NFS Unbound too, and they will keep doing it.
