Iron 👨💻Everytime someone complains about some publisher closing a studio, I feel like this.
For years we were promoting shady keyshops, with keys which comes you-already-know-from but not official ones. This is like piracy but in a bad way. Then, small studios don't reach the quota, and they have to been closed and/or merged with other studios, and drama begins.
I'm tired of reading this kind of things, tired of press being sponsored by shady keyshops, tired of promoting shooting yourself on your own foot and then crying because it hurts. I'm so sorry for Tango Gameworks but worst news to me is Arkane Austin closing after all the hate they got for Redfall (amazing game, imho).
