It’s increasingly clear that these megacorporations have no idea what they’re doing
eliminating potential future competitor for a tiny sum? sounds planned
This scene was pure nightmare fuel. Really scarred me.
Maybe these businesses shouldn’t sell out to corporate suits? No? Greed is on all sides.
Applies to EA, ActiBlizz too. So many beloved titles and developer studios were destroyed by greedy corpo fucks.

That’s the cynical strategy though. Buy the competition, then they don’t really care if they earn a shit ton from one specific company, or if theyll just shut it down. The goal is to reduce the competition so they can charge more for what they’re already selling.
