BREAKING: Embracer finds out closing studios leads to lack of new releases

OH OKAY so glad this was the guy in charge of which studios Embracer shuttered
Oh hey it's the guy who posted this shit comment on an asmongold video wherein he bemoans "imposing morals on gamers" and the complexity of modern games.

Warner Bros. signals it's up for sale and has received interest from "multiple parties"

literally no, a friend of mine had his studio closed because the people who funded him got bought by embracer and then embracer did what embracer does. that's completely unforeseeable.

The fact that Square sold so many studios to Embracer to invest in NFTs, and then Embracer killed those studios to invest in LLMs... fucking techbros.
