Stormgate made a lot of promises when it launched into early access around this time last year, and it didn't deliver on many of them. A group of ex-Blizzard devs teaming up for a self-published, StarCraft-style RTS sounded too good to be true. Unfortunately, it was. The initial game was "undercooked" (Frost Giant Studios' CEO Tim Morten's own words), and received terrible feedback. Things didn't improve much with the full launch last month. Morten has since taken to LinkedIn to explain what went wrong, what he'd do differently, and why Cyberpunk 2077 and No Man's Sky are "unicorns" among games.
