    “At the end of the day, though, it always comes down to that most important resource of all – people."

    You know, like the ones we just fired…

    Maybe it’s time for these massive publishers to become irrelevant anyway. They’re only in it for the money. Steam has proven that there’s plenty of market for games made by small, independent publishers.

      No one going to miss these publishers. They think by hoarding franchises , but firing devs who actually made these franchises great, they could ride the coattails to success. But, they need to learn the lesson that franchises only matter as long as people care about them and people only care about as long as the games are actually good. By killing studios and firing devs, you lose the ability to make great games and then, your hoarded franchises fade into irrelevance.
