Anthem' In-Game Message Possibly Hinting at Development Issues
According to the recent massive report, one of the issues plaguing Anthem's development was lack of direction. It basically wasn't being made clear as to what the game was about, as ideas would appear and then change, only to change again and again. That brings us to the Cortex item that was found, titled "What Does It All Mean?"
In the message found with the item, it says, "I asked the Arcanists what the meaning of the world was, and they couldn't tell me. They had a lot of theories. A lot of ideas. A lot of hot air. The truth is: nobody really knows. Shouldn't that worry people? Whenever I bring it up, they just shrug. How can they not care? How can so many people be asleep? Doesn't it bother them that our whole world is unexplained after thousands of years of living in it?"
Now, unless the developer that wrote this message comes forward, there is no telling if it is actually meant as a somewhat cry for help from within. There's a good chance it's just part of the lore featured in Anthem, but in a post-Kotaku report world, it's difficult not to apply the message to what has happened outside of the game.
Anthem is currently available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Sad that the game didn't turn out as planned, it was a blast playing it at PAX East.
