Square Enix Sells Eidos Montreal to Embracer - SUCK IT SQUARE PENIX!!!!!!

Late to the party, but I'm interested in the possibility of them remastering/remaking the Deus Ex and Thief games (maybe Tomb Raider too). Under Embracer, Destroy All Humans! and SpongeBob: Battle for Bikini Bottom had solid remakes that made several quality of life improvements while preserving the original tone (like maintaining the original voice acting while cleaning up the audio quality). If they can provide that same quality level to the IPs they're acquiring, we could be in for some solid remakes.

All in all, I'm cautiously optimistic about this, more than I'd be if Square-Enix was still running the show.
 
Weren't they the people who did an AMA on 9chan which caused redditors and games journalists to seethe with envy?


One of the mods changes the lighting which changes the mood of the levels. Maybe that's the one.
Yep, that’s the one
 
Industry "experts" are claiming the sale was because Square Enix has to focus on GaaS shit and that the industry needs to go in this direction.

So honestly...why do most GaaS games always end up underperforming save for a few? Isn't this just a sign of greed more than anything lol.
Honestly it doesnt matter if their gaas bomb as long as at least one suceeds and they can have fuck you money from riding on it forever.

Its a classic some businessman sees a business doing something really successful and wants to try and reproduce it.

What they should really be trying to do is either try to Iterate or create something new but companies would rather try and chase their own tails and try to recreate the golden goose ie. Every shitty carbon copy of PUBG and PUBG dying when they refused to keep improving it when it got outstripped in its own genre.

tldr. I think businessman are dumb for just wantying to copy and paste success instead of creating it
