    Maybe don’t let the same venture capitalists control that many studios and games, idk.

      They own over 76 studios, most of which I’ve never heard of and a lot don’t even have Wikipedia lages. Just speculating without taking the time to do proper research, my guess is there are some mobile games included.

      The problem was they bought too many game companies too fast, and now they can’t afford to develop all this stuff at the same time.

      It was a bad business decision by leadership, and now the grunts will pay for it.
