Gotta admit, I don’t really play many Remedy games. While the settings and art may be good the gameplay is always kinda boring. I remember when Alan Wake was being developed and there was an insane amount of hype around it but when it came out it was just kind of boring to play. I haven’t finished it to this day. I heard Alan Wake 2 is really good but I just wasn’t going to play it without finishing the first one
“Accelerate growth” - business jargon for “enshittification.”
Get your bingo cards out. Microtransactions, super mega ultra deluxe editions, account requirement, Denuvo, online requirement, platform exclusivity
Pointing out platform exclusivity is hilarious, considering
I’m out of the loop, I haven’t bought an EA game in a decade (or two). Did they already go full platform exclusive or something?
Alan Wake 2 was only made because Epic funded its development. That also means the game is locked to EGS (but is obviously on consoles)
Ah. Thanks!
Thanks for asking, honestly. I didn’t make the connection either.
Rip remedy
They’re done. I hope their devs can find better employment elsewhere.
Fuck growth for its own sake. Let’s stop this cancer cell mentality. Sustainability’s where it’s at.
Fucking dammit. One of the few big-ish studios out there worth following.
RIP
Translation: It’s time to reap the massive profits by cutting down this artsy studio y’all sowed
Today will be known as the day Remedy died. Fucking dickheads.
Wow. That is a shame. Accelerate growth by probably sucking all the soul out of the studio.
Goodbye, Alan Wake. We’ll miss you.
That’s so disappointing. I loved their games. 🥺
Tell me you’re gonna go bankrupt without telling me you’re…
OH my fucking god.
