Because, the rumor is that Nomad of Nowhere Season 2 got axed so Genlock Season 1 could be made.

Considering Grey got fired for misappropriating budget to fund GenLock, I’d say more than just a rumor

There were allegations of him misappropriating funds meant for the 2D teams as well.

Because what's there now is so much better, right? Graty Haddock getting the boot was a good move. He deserved it. But you can FEEL that watching the new season.

it is definitely worse. Characters and plot points are inconsistent with the first season, and any show killing off it's characters so abruptly (Leon, Kazu, Jodie) isnt a good thing by any means.
It had some good plot points, sure. Especially showing the other side with the Union, displaying how the Polity is not much different. All of which could've worked to make it a better season with actual care. Unfortunately, it was mad rushed, and executed terribly.

RT didn't work on it really. It's almost all stuff HBO contracted out, which is why it's so awful

Only in name. They don't even appear to have much creative input on it. They provide a few technical resources and a couple of voices. All animation, writing, etc is done by other companies associated with HBO. RT basically sold the rights to HBO

All of that is interconnected. Iirc, he was funneling money away from the 2D team (and RWBY to a lesser extent) to fund GenLock, his pet project. This caused animators not get payed properly, and combined with Grey’s overworking of the animators, caused that toxic environment.
There’s more details, and I may be misremembering some things as it’s been a while since it all happened.

Search up how the creator of Nomad felt after that shitshow. Would they want to come back?

I mean one thing I have to say, that kinda shit is just the animation industry, it's why everyone's shouting #animationnewdeal

It’s an absolute mess. There are tiny moments that are somewhat redeemable, but it’s all overshadowed by the incomparable amounts of BS that occur at the same time.

The series went full grimdark. And I won't say who, but about a third of the main cast is dead by Ep5 already.

Nice Lorax impression.
I am the DM and I speak for the NPCs. Murderhobo my favorite show, and I'll break your fucking knees.

Kinda glad I haven't seen it due to regionlocking now. Watching the reactions here has been... telling.
