I mean, you don’t spend 70 billion on a market sector you’re going to deemphasize.
*70 billion this year alone.
2021: Zenimax for 7.5B
2018-19: Ninja Theory, Playground Games, Undead Labs, Compulsion Games, Obsidian Entertainment, inXile Entertainment, Double Fine Productions (all unknown amounts)
Earlier: Rare for 375M, Mojang for 2.5BOh shit, Double Fine too? Psychonauts 3 here we go!!!
Psychonauts 2 happened because Microsoft bought Double Fine and said, "How much time/money do you need to finish your game?" And basically gave it to them.
Hell yeah, I'm happy they did! That game was an absolute delight to play, just like the first one. The people at Double Fine really knock it out of the park!
What? No. Double fine kickstarted the game. That's why psychonauts 2 happened. Revisionist crap needs to die.
Literally watched an interview with Tim Schafer, they ran out of Kickstarter money and Microsofr saved the day. Look it up before calling me out please.
No one saved the day, they fund raised before, everyone does, many people found publishers if needed after running out of croudfunded money. There is no saviour here.
If this was true, I don't think MS will let them release it on PS4
Was Kickstarted for all consoles, they ran out of money, Microsoft bought them and left everything as-is, just gave more money. Go watch the interview about it.
