    Developers need to stop selling out. It ALWAYS ends in their closures.

    Like Bungie is maybe the one exception I can think of where they bought themselves back…before stupidly selling out yet again.

      Independent developers are even more likely to close down. How many long-lasting independent studios can you name?

      The fact of the matter is, the entire games business is an extremely risky and volatile one. A single flop can sink a well-established studio and great reception very much does not guarantee economic success.
