>>game is good years ago
>Made by Developer that historically makes good games
>Developer that historically makes good games is bought out by a major publisher
>Developer releases one more game thats kinda okay - has potential but is more rough around the edges than usual for these devs
>Publisher hires on 500 new employees to work for the studio, all of them fresh out of an Indian gamer college and here on work visas
>Old developers have no creative control anymore and 99% of them leave the studio
>Publisher just replaces all of them with more Indians on work visas
>Spends 80% of the budget on marketing
>give CEOs and directors massive bonuses out of the budget
>take subsidies from large investment firms in exchange for adding propaganda to the game
>all of this goes directly to the CEOS and directors
>almost all of the dev time is spent on what coat of paint they should give to the most generic game possible according to their marketing team which has never played a game before or spoken to a real person in over 50 years
>game is now bad
>"Wow Developer that historically makes good games really went downhill after going woke, why would the liberals do this to me???"
>people will still look forward to new games by the "Developer that historically makes good games" team even though every developer from that team that made the good games they are known for left years ago and its just a new team of incompetent developers being micromanaged by men in suits that are given advice by aliens
>after 10+ years of Developer that historically makes good games exclusively making terrible games someone will write an article to the tune of "Is TREND CHASER 2000: ONLINE a true return to form for Developer that historically makes good games?"
>People will buy it and get disappointed that it wasn't like the games made by a totally different team of people with completely different motivations a quarter of a century ago
Its not rocket science
