Immortals of Aveum launched in August 2023 amidst one of the busiest years of game releases in history, bookended by behemoths like Diablo 4, Starfield, and Baldur’s Gate 3. Ascendant Studios’ self-styled “Call of Duty with magic” experiment was compelling enough, and I personally think it deserved more attention, but it ultimately missed EA’s expectations by enough of a margin that about 45% of the studio’s workforce was laid off shortly after release.

Oof! That must be hard to stomach. Knowing it’s actually a quality product, but because the stars didn’t line up, you are let go…


Oh wow! Thanks for the recommendation. This game does look like a tone of fun (although I suspect a steep learning curve).

The 25 vs 25 video really impressed me!

I will definitely give it a try. 👍🏻

Edit: thanks for all the reassuring feedback. I’m looking forward to putting at least a few hours learning!😁


That’s just comparing two arbitrary numbers in a vacuum.

😂 Nice


…but it’s a start. And it will have a bigger impact than if there was no penalty at all. 🤷


OMG! Really excited for this!

I just looked it up, and they even have full audio in French, for anyone who grew up with Goldorak in the ‘80s! 😀 (italian too, for anyone interested).
