PCGamesN has asked David Anfossi, studio director of Eidos Montreal, about the video. He said it was well made and funny to watch, and while he can't comment on Project W specifically he says you shouldn't be surprised to hear about game cancellations: https://www.pcgamesn.com/eidos-montreal-final-fantasy-project-w

A tale of over-promising an over-ambitious project that got shot down for only a *few* of the usual reasons.

Special megathanks to Jordan Welty for the animation, whose other works can be found at:
