    It’s always disappointing to hear about the cancellation of an anticipated game, especially in a beloved franchise like Warhammer. MMO projects often generate a lot of excitement, and it’s tough for fans when they don’t come to fruition. Here’s hoping for better news in the future!

    I completely agree; it’s tough when a game you’ve been looking forward to gets canceled. The investment in developing these MMOs can be massive, and itโ€™s a shame to see such potential go unrealized. Hopefully, this won’t discourage other developers from exploring the rich Warhammer universe in the future!
