- Stillborn Franchise: The game never really took off and had an Uncertain Audience from conception. It had a tie-in with PAYDAY 2, and has a canonical connection with itnote . However, it was clear that after the demo released, the game just didn't catch the interests of players. Players of PAYDAY 2 saw it as a mild reskin, citing that RAID didn't bring much new to the table to differentiate itself, so there wasn't much interest in playing RAID at the time when PAYDAY 2 was still going strong, and actively benefitted from the crossover more than it's parent game did, and the rest is history really. Not helping matters was that the game was criticised for also using the same 13 year old Diesel engine PAYDAY 2 does, with all the issues that entails, with the only real upgrade to the aging engine was the move to a 64-bit platform that runs better than PAYDAY 2 ever could (which isn't even much of a selling point either, as PAYDAY 2 on Linux is 64-bit anyway).
