Because we as costumers of this game want to know what happen to the promised storylines for this game and its future content.
Hardsuit Labs / Paradox makes as care about Mitsoda & Ellison because they are used heavly in marketing.
So you can argue that its their own fault that the fans are asking what happen to those people?
We know that Cluney and Mitsoda were fired. And Ellison is very likely also fired.
You don´t get why people care about Mitsoda and Ellison do you?
Of course they aren´t Kojima but Hardsuit Lab / Paradox made both of them as their public faces of this product.
They advertise that those two (lets better ignore Avellones short involvment) made Bloodlines 2 great plus point. The Story and its character.
You have no idea how the Bloodlines 1 community is thinking!
Most people don´t care that Cluney was fired or that Schwarzer & Schlütter were removed from the project but Mitsoda and now Ellison?
This is terrible news because the fans care about the Bloodlines 2 story and its characters.
But i get it for you everything is totally normal and this project has no problems.
