They should have just made a sequel to Vampyr which is their best selling game. I enjoyed playing Vampyr myself.
That's a real shame, but ultimately not surprising, especially in the 'climate' we live in. They're the sort of company that up until Banishers, I would buy day one or pre-order; their games are subjectively good and I would take the chance on a company willing to take the risk on building new IPs. Ultimately I loved Remember Me the most and have completed it on at least three profiles. I'll get to Vampyr soon (the only game my sister-in-law has 100%'d), but I think Code Vein will come first once I knock out the last DLC on FFVX.
Also, it's not a sleight on Banishers that I only just bought it; of all the reviews I've seen except for a couple that should be ignored, there's nothings below 4*. Even without reviews, it was always on my to-buy list. Love the company as a whole (though I don't know of any 'politics') and wish to support them in the future.
