    Fuck growth for its own sake. Let’s stop this cancer cell mentality. Sustainability’s where it’s at.

    That’s so disappointing. I loved their games. 🥺

    “Accelerate growth” - business jargon for “enshittification.”

      Get your bingo cards out. Microtransactions, super mega ultra deluxe editions, account requirement, Denuvo, online requirement, platform exclusivity

        Pointing out platform exclusivity is hilarious, considering

          I’m out of the loop, I haven’t bought an EA game in a decade (or two). Did they already go full platform exclusive or something?

            Alan Wake 2 was only made because Epic funded its development. That also means the game is locked to EGS (but is obviously on consoles)

                Thanks for asking, honestly. I didn’t make the connection either.

    They’re done. I hope their devs can find better employment elsewhere.

    Wow. That is a shame. Accelerate growth by probably sucking all the soul out of the studio.
