What about it is a clone of Genshin Impact?
Go right ahead. If they actually manage to do it, that will be the end of my YouTube watching.

Except on extremely rare occasions.
I'm sorry, I just find it funny that you walked back the "I'm done with Youtube" claim in the very next sentence.
My kids will be excited. They love this game.
$60 for the first game is kind of a crazy price.
Technically it's possible, but the article includes the transcript that Druckmann himself posted, so that would mean he is faking a transcript to call out Sony's edits to what he said.
No, it just shows that we shouldn’t trust everything published by a company.
"Not trusting" is easy but not especially useful if no one is attempting to figure out the truth.

Yes, I would consider 8 years a long time to make a game like Helldivers 2.
