One of the things that was annoying to me about Epic Mickey 2 was that Oswald at times would shock you without warning. And when he wasn't behind you he'd go say "wait for me!" and you are baffled that he's just standing there. I know Warren was trying to get Oswald to be a playable character. But why not just go with making it as a choice? You remember how some video games let you choose your own character, and a different outcome would happen once you choose that character? They could have gone with that route rather than a co-op route. Just saying though.
It doesn't help that Power of two ends up with a sequel hook which had Big Bad Pete saying how happy the toons are, but is holding gremlin Prescott while making a devious look on his face. And comments "They aint never gonna know what hit em." With him are Small world Pete and Pete Pan. If you ignore helping Petetronic, he'd join the group. So it hinted that Epic mickey 3 would have been focused on Pete being the bad guy. Since junction point is now closed, Epic Mickey 3: Revenge of pete(which is what I am calling it since it would have gone with pete being the bad guy) wont become a reality. Neither would Warren Spector’s Ducktales game. I cant help but feel that Disney had been planning on betraying on Warren Spector. The guy is a huge Disney fan, he’s respected the company’s work, and he even brought back Oswald the lucky rabbit from obscurity. And this is the thanks he gets? His own studio being closed down? What a way to say thanks Disney, you guys made another dumb choice that goes onto my list of "dumb moves from Disney" -_-.
