We always hear about shit companies like embracer, but who are the actual people in charge? Who are the people who are very bad at their jobs and should be publically ostracized for damaging not only their ips but the lives of hundreds to thousands of working developers? Like what are their names? Who are these faceless scumbags?

Embracer is just a name to hide behind, the people involved in the decisionmaking here should be known by name, like Bobby "incredible piece of human filth" Kotick

You can tell from the pictures that they all play video games. /s

I really hate how people in charge of companies usually don't give a crap about the product, just how to exploit it.

I honestly do believe Lars Wingefors is passionate about games and the industry, he's been trying to find a place in it his whole career, but I do not think he's a good business man nor worthy of stewardship for these IPs.

Very well could be. I didn't research their backgrounds. I just know from first hand experience of people who get jobs who graduated with business degrees who don't care about the stuff they sell.
