they cleverly negotiated 20 million settlement a year ago, + all their quarterly issues:

Now they are playing catch up by copy/pasting chinese engines to produce games that yield a guaranteed profit margin to their angry investors.

their formula: promise a game, pull the lever see a high quarterly return for their investors. No integrity/long term plan.

TLDRthey ditched the creative brief and put together a way to guarantee something to their board via d4.
dead franchise is dead.
