I’m starting a tinfoil hat conspiracy theory that the embracer group became the “embracer group” to embrace small devs and then kill them off. This company keeps killing perfectly functional studios.
they got greedy with money, then a big saudi deal fell through and now they’re in the hole big time killing stuff off to save their asses.
And people say monopolising things under one company isn’t a problem these days…
Yeah, it seems like they went on that buying spree to make themselves more attractive to sell.
Fuck Embracer group
Embracer is just trying to ruin as many Christmases as possible, aren’t they? By the time this is over Embracer might be able to match EA for number of studios they’ve bought and shut down. Hopefully those impacted land on their feet, but given the state of the industry I’m skeptical.
So we aren’t getting the new Duke Nukem this year?
