What happened to next game

What happened to this studios next game? I've been excited for it since they teased it. Last thing I remember was that the studio banned pewdiepie from playing their next game on his channel for saying the n-word and it still isn't out.

The man went and started a family by the time the next game came out, we even got gta 6 before their next game even, like come on.

Nah I know it was just funny how they handled it purely to media farm only for the game to never release.

Firewatch was very successful. They didn't need media farming. Arguably it would have been a bigger benefit if Pewdiepie had played the game. He just f'ed up.

Were not talking about firewatch. They wanted to ban him from this game that's coming up but got cancelled. The only reason I know about firewatch is because of pewdiepie on his playthroughs. And probably many others too. And then they tried to take the morale high ground afterwards even though he helped them alot with their game. Saying he's banned from playing it on his channel, silly as they were. They have the right to do it of course it's their game and they don't have to condone what he did. But publicly banning him from all their future games was objectively silly.

I am aware of that. I am saying Firewatch was such a success that they didn't need media farming for a future game. I feel like you're just a very big pewdiepie fan. I haven't seen a single pewdiepie video in my entire life. There are countless other youtubers that played Firewatch and spread the word. And even if he was a huge help for Firewatch, it doesn't mean he's excused from negative behaviour. Gotta live with the consequences.
