Is this the fastest video game death of all time? Not even Lawbreakers died this fast.

Lawbreakers was an excellent game that was killed by executive stupidity.

I thought it was killed by having stupid design around game objectives and not letting you tweak those rules yourself.

Don't forget the fact that is was a free-to-play game with a $30 price-tag.

That's what killed it for me. I really enjoyed the Lawbreakers beta, but paying $30 for a game that would either die at a fixed price or quickly shift to F2P made no sense.
