If millions of dollars were spent creating what they ended up cutting, management either was:
- not involved enough
- changed too much too far into the process

Essentially they flipped over to "gameplay rules all" and the story wasn't a prime motivator. But much too far into development.

I don't disagree with some of the changes they wanted to make. I think they suffered from "hey, we now want to make this game, not that other game we've mostly finished", rather than finishing what they started and making year 2 build out on that in all these other ways.

We'll never know really.
