lmao on anyone that was dumb enough to think this was going to be a positive outcome

at least it was two shit AAA game companies and not another great indie dev getting absorbed

If a great indie dev gets absorbed then it will cease being great. Mergers by these souls corps are almost always bad for everyone except the execs and shareholders.
