It's always worth the risk as long as you show something people will actually want to play.

It's about time someone stopped depending on sequels!

Its only a matter of time before this one has a sequel too. 99% of the time if we don't see one its because the game didn't do well.

how about releasing a console with a new IP as flagship title? lol

sleeping dogs looks fine by me i can deff see it selling well,once a game is good its always welcomed by gamers

red dead redemption
l a noire
alan wake
heavy rain

they were all games that devs were afraid of trying but they succeeded

I'm ridiculously interested in this title, but a cool idea and a slick trailer alone don't really prove that the risk is worth it. One can't really accurately make that judgement until there is a finished product.

But hot damn this game looks incredible.

Every industry has these issues

Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.
