TBF, Eidos under Embracer had a game in progress, but it was one of the projects they cut when the saudis ended up not investing in them.
Embracer had bought up studios and started projects they didn't yet have money to fund, and when that bit them in the ass, it was the studios and games that got the axe.
Almost like they were greedy morons who achieved nothing.
Oh for sure. Tons of studios would probably still exist, and a lot of people would still have jobs, had Embracer just not bought those studios.
CEOs just fail upwards
It must be nice to never be held accountable or feel any of the repercussions of your fuck ups, let alone those of others like the rest of us
