“well these are new people who may be skilled enough to do this”
I think the fairer and neutral reaction would be to say that the team, the pipelines and everything else is new and untested. We can't know for sure what the studio is about, what they are capable of, and what they want to achieve. All we know are the supposed plans of their parent company. The best case scenario we could hope for is that BL2 is something like Kingmaker. The first offering of a new studio that bit more than they could chew, only it had enough heart to be worth it's niche. If BL2 ends up being something more it would be an upset. If it ends up being something less, it would be understandable. Or at the very least it wouldn't be much of a surprise.
It doesn't
seem like they walked into this project like it's a mercenary hackjob to turn a quick buck. But then again I don't trust Paradox not to fuck up their vetting for the fourteenth time.
