Marcus Aurelius famously wrote "What stands in the way becomes the way". But like, don't go that way if it's silly and proven unsuccessful.
I think it's about burying a failure more than anything. Is it preferable to have the game not exist than have a low player count? I don't think so because of what we know about games getting sudden resurgences. From a brand perspective, they would prefer to be forgotten ASAP?
