That selling to the next buyer who throws money at you obviously leads to risks of getting shutdown. People don’t want or care about long term sustainability and cry when business daddy decides that record profits this year don’t match up with imaginary made up profit growth and hence declare this as a failure.
Edit: “Making good, profitable games ‘will no longer keep you safe’” But only if you sold your soul for a bunch of retirement money from Bethesda or whoever else. If you are so keen on that sweet retirement exit then your studio was doomed the moment somebody offered the founders to a buyout. I am baffled at how people are missing this obvious conclusion.

Sounds like a stockholder opinion. Devs need unions, the vulture capitalists need their backs broken; plain and simple.
"> capitalists need their heights shortened

Pretend I’m 8 and explain the right conclusion to me, please. I don’t know what it is.
